Stewed Pork Leg Noodle & Crispy Wanton Noodle For Breakfast

This was a Tuesday morning. After morning walk, we drove to #884, Jalan Queen, Pasir Pinji for breakfast.

Hubby ordered the stewed pork leg noodle.

He likes it very much.

I wanted to try something new so I ordered the above.

Something like wat tan hor but it is not.

The gravy is not as thick as wat tan hor.

 The gravy with slices of fish cake, fish and meat balls, meat, egg and green vegetable was poured over the crispy fried wonton noodle.

Hubby ordered unsweetened black coffee and I ordered iced coffee.

The best way to use up the small white bitter gourds is to make stuffed bitter gourds.

I made a big plate of stuffed bitter gourd.

This can be eaten as a snack.

I made ginger pickle with the newly harvest ginger from my garden. Since I had extra vinegar and sugar syrup, I also made white bitter gourd pickles for the first time.

The ginger and bitter gourd pickles and roasted sesame dressing from Kewpie served as condiments and dipping sauce.

That evening, I made plain rice porridge and the above was our dinner for 2 people.

The following photos were taken at the Gunung Lang Recreational Park.

I used Google Lens to identify this bird and it identified it as a Peafowl.

Please do correct me if it is wrongly identified.

We saw a pair in the cage. This one was perched where I could get a clearer snapshot.

This looks its egg on the ground inside the cage.

Beautiful and colourful feathers.

God protected them in the howling wilderness

As though they were the apple of his eye.

He spreads his wings over them,

Even as an eagle overspreads her young.

She carries them upon her wings -

White Bitter Gourd Stuffed With Fish Paste + Minced Meat

It was a gloomy day. The sunrise was blocked by an overcast sky.

Started out on our morning walk at about 6:45am.

~~~~~

After morning walk, we stopped at a nearby coffee shop for breakfast. We shared the following items.

A plate of Hong Kong chee cheong fun which is steamed rice flour noodle with bbq pork and prawn filling. It was served with sambal on the side.

A cup of unsweetened coffee with evaporated milk (kopi C kosong).

2 sets of egg on toast for sharing.

We like to add sprinkling of soy sauce and dashes of white pepper powder to the eggs.

A plate of fried rice vermicelli with egg, prawns and beansprout.

Morning sky at 7:55am.

Morning sky at about 8am.

White bitter gourd is right for harvest.

I was not sure how I want to cook the bitter gourd. I looked into the freezer and checked what I can find. Then I took out a packet of fish paste and a packet of minced pork.

I ended up making stuffed white bitter gourd with the fish and minced meat paste.

I don't have chili sauce, so I used roasted sesame dressing as dipping sauce.

Plain blanched green veggie (baby choy fah).

This was a 2 dish dinner. No rice, no noodle.

So, my fellow believers, long to be prophets

so that you can preach God's message plainly;

and never say it is wrong to "speak in tongues";

however, be sure that everything is done properly

in a good and orderly way.

Our turn to play host.

That evening we had home cooked dinner in our house.

Time to harvest the green amaranth (yeen choy) from my garden.

The rain has helped the vegetable to grow well.

Stuffed home grown white bitter gourds.

No chili sauce in the house so instead we had roasted sesame dressing as dipping sauce for the stuffed bitter gourd.

Blanched green amaranth and okras with 3 types of egg gravy.

(salted egg, century egg and chicken egg)

This time the egg white was a overcooked.

Soup ingredients:

The fastest way to use up the white bitter gourds and brinjals harvested from my garden is to stuff them with minced port + fish paste.

We ate the whole plate (above) for dinner without any rice.

We had Kewpie roasted sesame dressing and Thai chili as dippings.
