Waxed Duck, Bottle Gourd Soup & Nai Pak Choy

 This was a nice cool and clear morning. We got ready for morning walk.

Sunrise at 7:02am.
On the reverse side - Kledang Hill.
We settled for shredded chicken noodle for breakfast at our regular coffeeshop.
The boss added a chicken liver to hubby's bowl of kai si hor fun (shredded chicken with flat rice noodle).
He also added something to my bowl: 2 pieces of fried fish cake.
2 bowls for RM11.00, no extra charge for the add-ons.
~~~~~
Home cooked dinner on a rainy evening.
I boiled soup with bottle gourd, carrot, goji berries, red dates and roast pork bones.
Steamed 1 waxed duck leg. This is hubby's favourite.
Stir fried home grown nai pak choy and ladies fingers with pork slices.
Our dinner on a rainy evening, eaten with steamed brown rice.
The bowl with more soup was hubby's. I like to drink and also eat the soup ingredients. That is the reason why I prefer not to eat rice.

But, O my soul, don't be discouraged.
Don't be upset. Expect God to act!
For I know that I shall again have plenty of reason
to praise him for all that he will do.
He is my help! He is my God!
(Psalm 42:11, The Living Bible-TLB)

  1. Come Chinese New Year, we can buy waxed duck here. I used to buy for my late mum, she loved it. Now I don't buy anymore, nobody eating.

  3. I´ve never heard of waxed duck.
    I tried to buy a roasted one yesterday at ALDI but they were all gone, sadly...
    It´s typical for Christmas here, that or goose.
