Lunch At Little Tiger Char Koey Teow, Ipoh

A friend shared a post on a new eatery selling Penang char koey teow (fried flat rice noodle) and prawn noodle. Not easy to find really good Penang style fried noodle and prawn noodle. Hubby and I were telling each other that we should check out this new place. The following day we went there for lunch.  After looking through the menu, we settled for the following:

Penang char koey teow set including drink - RM 9.90
This fried noodle has fried lard cubes.

Prawn Noodle set including drink - RM 9.90

Inside the eatery

 Next, I would love to try the above item.

Nasi Kunyit or turmeric glutinous rice with chicken curry.

 And also this Nyonya Nasi Lemak.

 Business hours for those who are interested.

Little Tiger Char Koey Teow,

No. 98 (Grd Fl.) Jalan Raja Ekram, Ipoh.

After lunch, I finally had the mood to make peanut almond jam.

These are without sugar.

*     *     *     *     *

I cooked the following dishes for dinner.

 Taro or yam cooked with garlic and dried prawns.

 Fried garlic and soy sauce prawns.

 Sweet potato leaves sauteed with garlic

Our dinner without rice.

The Spirit and the bride say, 'Come.'

Let each one who hears them say the same, 'Come.'

Let the thirsty one come - anyone who wants to;

let him come and drink the Water of Life without charge.

(Revelation 22:17, The Living Bible-TLB)

Home Made Peanut Almond Jam & Beef Balls

I have been wanting to buy a good quality food processor but somehow I kept postponing. It was end of last year that I bought one and it remained in its box until recently. It was finally put to used when I took it out to make peanut butter.

 This is my 2nd time making peanut butter at home. The 1st & 2nd time I used the normal blender. The 1st try was making peanut butter and the 2nd try, I made peanut and almond butter. Both times, the texture was a bit too dry and not easy to spread on the bread.

 This time, I am very happy with the result.

 The amount I made filled up 2 jam bottles (1 small and 1 big).

 The texture of the peanut butter makes spreading on the bread easy. Now I can enjoy unsweetened peanut butter without having to buy the expensive imported brands.

 We have finished the small bottle and the big one is kept in the fridge waiting for us to get a new loaf of bread. Or maybe I should try making my own bread with the bread making machine my sister passed on to me.

I also used the food processor to make some beef balls. I used the beef balls to cook soup with my home grown bitter gourd. For dinner, we had glass noodles with the beef balls and bitter gourd soup. The beef balls didn't turn out as bouncy as expected. I suppose I will have to try again.

 I also stir fried a plate of bean sprouts with garlic. 

 My home made chili oil as condiment to go with the beef balls noodle soup and stir fried bean sprout. As I have mentioned, I am not satisfied with my chili oil and I will have to try again. Until then, I will continue to buy our favourite brand chili oil.

Stay away from the love of money; be satisfied with what you have.

For God has said, "I will never, never fail you nor forsake you."

(Hebrews 13:5, The Living Bible-TLB)
