Pig Stomach Noodle, Fried Bacon, Pickled Veg & Rice Porridge

It was drizzling when we woke up on a Sunday morning. After the drizzling stopped, we walked out to our regular coffee shop for breakfast.

Morning sky after the drizzle about 7:30am

We shared this bowl of pig stomach soup with noodle.

Ingredients consist of rice vermicelli, pieces of pig stomach, daikon, a pair of chicken feet, and hot peppery soup. This soup is only available on Sunday.

We ordered 6 pieces of deep fried items from another stall. That morning we had unsweetened coffee (kopi C kosong).

Green eggplants in my garden.

I have not restocked the food supply yet because I wanted to clear whatever foodstuff I can find in the fridge or pantry. I found 2 items which will be good to go with rice porridge for dinner. 

Fried bacon

Remaining home made pickled mustard green to cook with minced pork and chili.

Both were big portions, more than enough for 2 meals.

Simple home cooked dinner for 2 people.

Linking to Wordless Wednesday & My Corner of the World.

"I want to make the simpleminded wise!" he said.

"I want to warn young men about some problems they will face.

I want those already wise to become wiser and become leaders

by exploring the depths of meaning in these nuggets of truth."

How does a man become wise?

The first step is to trust and reverence the Lord!

Only fools refuse to be taught. Listen to your father and mother.

What you learn from them will stand you in good stead;

it will gain you many honors.

(Proverbs 1:4-9, The Living Bible-TLB)

Curry Ribs Wonton Noodle & Home Made Salted Mustard Green

This was Wednesday, 2 days before Lunar New Year. After morning walk, we stopped at one of our regular coffee shop for breakfast. 

We ordered and shared a plate of wonton noodle with curry pork rib and minced pork dumplings (wonton). Then hubby bought a Chinese cruller or youtiao to eat with his coffee.

Papaya for pre-lunch.

My lunch: Took out 1 curry puff, warm up in the oven.

Lots of filling: a quarter hard boiled egg, chicken, and potato.

Hubby's lunch: Mamak rojak (pasembor) and iced unsweetened black coffee.

Home cooked dinner.

There was a tub of home made pickled (salted) mustard green (hum choy) in my fridge. I almost forgot about it. I took half to cook with minced pork, tomatoes and chilies.

Fried 2 slices of grouper fish.

We had plain rice porridge with the fried fish and salted mustard green savoury dish. It was a very appetizing dinner. I kept half the salted mustard green in the fridge for the next day's dinner.

Salt is good for seasoning.

But if it loses its flavor, how do you make it salty again?

You must have the qualities of salt among yourselves

and live in peace with each other.

(Mark 9:50, New Living Translation-NLT)

Coconut Jam (Kaya) & Teochew Porridge

Yesterday was 36th day MCO. Will the MCO be extended again? We will have to wait and see.

Sunrise at 7:06 am.

Sunrise at 7:14 am

Can you see the 2 birds on the left side?

The birds are also practising social distancing.

I managed to buy some coconut milk (santan) to make some coconut jam (kaya). I reduced the sugar to half the amount. This time it was not as thick as expected
but the sweetness is just nice for us. The texture is smooth. What you see on the "kaya" is actually air bubble.

Dinner - Teochew Porridge

Stewed pork belly with preserved veggie (mui choy).

Blanched "Tong ho" veggie

"Tong ho" or garland chrysanthemum drizzled with garlic oil and soy sauce. I love this veggie but hubby doesn't eat because of its strong herbal smell.

So I opened a small can of pickled Chinese mustard green for hubby.

Teochew porridge for 2

I added oat to my porridge.

Dwarf Mexican Petunia drenched with rain droplets after the early morning shower.

You take care of the earth and water it,

making it rich and fertile.

The river of God has plenty of water;

it provides a bountiful harvest of grain,

for you have ordered it so.

You drench the plowed ground with rain,

melting the clods and leveling the ridges.

You soften the earth with showers

and bless its abundant crops.

(Psalm 65:9-10, New Living Translation-NLT)
