A friend sent me the following sunset shots which he took from his house on Monday evening. His house is less than 5 km from my house. I was busy cooking dinner, so I missed taking snapshots of the sunset that evening.

I had this sambal shrimp paste for cooking stinky beans but I can't remember where I bought it from.
This is from a local manufacturer.
I used the paste to cook stinky beans with minced pork. As you can see, the paste was dark in colour. It is on the sweet side. I prefer the paste to be less sweet and more spicy. I used some oil to fry the minced pork before adding the paste. So, I ended up with a lot of oil and I will have to scoop up the oil from the plate before we start our dinner.
I needn't have to buy green vegetables since I had Chinese cabbage growing in my front garden.
Just 2 plants is enough for a plate of green for dinner.
I blanched the vegetable in hot boiling water, drizzled some garlic oil, oyster and soy sauce over it. I added the remaining crunchy roasted almond chips on top.
This was our dinner with steamed brown rice.
The above photo was taken before I added the almond chips.

Pretty skies.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jim.
DeleteWow, beautiful sky-captures!
ReplyDeleteStinky beans does not sound very.... yummy! ;-) Why that name?
Your dinner looks very yummy, hmmmm....
Thank you, Iris. The bean got its name because after consuming the beans, the unpleasant smell will be noticeable the next day when you need to go to the washroom. Lol!
DeleteWhat a gogeous sky. And your cabbage is so vibrant and healthy!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Ginny. It is a joy to see the vegetables growing well.

Thank you, Lovely.
DeleteGee!!! Purple sky! That is so beautiful! Gosh! Your cabbage grows so well - the leaves are perfect. No problem with pests? Lucky you! Yes, the petai did look rather oily.
ReplyDeleteThank God so far no pests. Have a great weekend.
DeleteBeautiful sky shots!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Shiju.
DeleteSunset shots are gorgeous. From your own garden to dinner table..that's the freshest and best meal.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Angie.
DeleteSpectacular sunset! The word 'stinking' shouldn't be used with anything edible. Perhaps it's wrong translation.
ReplyDeleteActually the local called this bean "petai" or "stink" beans because the smell will be very obvious when you go to the washroom one day later.
DeleteI love your purple and gold skies!
ReplyDeleteThank you and have a wonderful weekend.
DeleteChinese cabbage looks spectacular! and I like the dish that you have prepared with it

Thank you, Sandee. Have a great weekend.
DeleteYou seem to have had a nutritious dinner with fresh vegetables from your garden! Beautiful sunset with purple hues. Have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jeevan. Happy weekend to you.
DeleteThose skies are amazing.
ReplyDeleteTo me, savory is for dinner and sweet is for dessert, so i don't blame you for liking your paste less sweet to cook for dinner.
Thank you, Mimi. Enjoy your weekend.
DeleteGorgeous skies.
ReplyDeleteThank you, William.
DeleteBella col te mando un beso.
ReplyDeleteThank you, JP.
DeleteSunset photos look beautiful. We have some nice sunsets as well. It's been nice to grow your own plants. We have two different kinds of tomatoes and they are delicious. We are getting a few each day as there's quite a lot of sunshine. Early next week it's to be 100 degree F for two days. Hope it doesn't stay around very long! Have a good weekend!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Beckyl. I am also growing tomatoes but the plants are still very small. Hope the plants will produce enough tomatoes for our consumption. Currently it is raining now, hope we get enough rain to bring down the temperature. Have a great weekend.
DeleteThank you Nancy for the purple sky photos. Unique colour. Oh, so good you have a sunken trough specifically to Grow Chinese Cabbage. How do you know when to harvest the cabbage?
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mun. Well, I don't know exactly when but from my experience I more or less know when it is time to harvest. If wait too long, the stems will be fibrous.
DeleteGorgeous colour in the sky. Your dinner looks nice and healthy. I'll be having a lot of greens tonight too.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Joyful. Eating more greens is good for us.
DeleteThank you and have a great day.
ReplyDeleteNice healthy home-grown veggies as usual. You really have a green thumb.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Stacy.
DeleteLas tomas del cielo se ven bonitas. Feliz tarde.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Teresa.
