Blanched Beansprout & Poached Chicken For Dinner

This was last Saturday morning. 

Sunrise at 7:05am.

Morning sky at 7:20am.

After breakfast, hubby went out to meet up with his friends.

And I went out to pick up a butter lemon cake (RM18) which I have ordered.

Instead of my usual chempedak cake (RM12), I wanted to try this butter lemon cake which my friend said is nice.

It smells nice but it is more expensive than the chempedak cake. To me, both butter lemon cake and the chempedak cake are equally nice but husband doesn't like the slight sourish lemon taste. He prefers the chempedak cake.

Another lazy day for the cook. This time we had "nga choy kai" or beansprout and chicken for dinner. We haven't been to this place for more than 2 years, even before the pandemic started.

A bowl of flat rice noodle aka koay teow (RM2.30) in plain soup.

Poached chicken (RM17).

Blanched beansprout or nga choy (RM4).

Plus a glass of lime syrup (RM2.30).

Total cost of our shared dinner RM25.60.

Friendship with God is reserved for those who reverence him.

With them alone he shares the secrets of his promises.

Chinese Herbal Soup & Stewed Pork Shoulder

I am sharing 2 days' short posts in this post.

DAY #1

Sunrise at 7:22am.

Morning sky at 7:23am.

Sunrise at 7:33am.

Green brinjals (eggplants) and ladies fingers (okra) from my garden.

I steamed all the green brinjals and ladies finger for dinner.

Drizzled with garlic oil, oyster and soy sauce. 

Boiled Chinese Herbal Soup with pork soft bones.

Passed a portion of the soup over the fence to our neighbour.

This was a no rice dinner.

DAY #2

Sunrise shot on our morning walk.

Buttercake from a dear friend.

Only remember to snap photo after making the cut on the cake.

Stewed pork shoulder with potatoes, carrots and tomatoes.

Home grown angled luffa cooked with dried shrimps and egg.

Steamed rice for hubby.

For me, I ate toast with the stew.

Yums! I really enjoyed my dinner.

Linking to Wordless Wednesday & My Corner of the World.

Everyone enjoys giving good advice, and how wonderful

it is to be able to say the right thing at the right time.
