Nasi Lemak, Taro Puffs & Chicken With Pineapple

This was Monday, 4th day MCO 2.0. We did our morning walk and stop to buy 2 packets of nasi lemak from one the shops. Then we walked over to pass one packet of nasi lemak to our friend. While there, hubby bought iced black coffee (unsweetened) to takeaway.

Cheap and tasty Nasi Lemak @ RM1.50

Besides the rice, there is spicy sambal, 2 fried anchovies, fried peanuts, a small wedge of hard boiled egg, and a small piece of cucumber.

No nasi lemak for me. I prefer to take baby oats with pine nuts and cranberries.

Our breakfast.

Hubby had his iced black coffee, and I had Nescafe Gold.

Taro puffs for our lunch.

Our friend dropped by our house to pass us the taro puffs on her way home the previous night after she closed her stall.

Home cooked dinner.

I had half a pineapple in my fridge. It was sour so I decided to use it to cook a dish for dinner.

Chicken breast meat with pineapple - sweet, sourish and spicy.

Blanched broccoli, drizzled with garlic oil and soy sauce.

Appetizing dinner for 2 people.

In a wealthy home there are dishes made of gold and

silver as well as some made from wood and clay.

The expensive dishes are used for guests,

and the cheap ones are used in the kitchen or to put garbage in.

If you stay away from sin you will be like one of these dishes

made of purest gold - the very best in the house - so that

Christ himself can use you for his highest purposes.

Roti Canai, Sweet Potato Tong Sui & Chicken Curry

This was a Sunday morning, 3rd day of MCO 2.0. The first voice message that came through my hand phone that early morning was from our friend. It was to inform that our breakfast was waiting for us to collect from her.

Roti canai - breakfast treat from our friend. At that time, I was waiting for the water to boil to make coffee for me and milo for hubby.

After breakfast, I went outside to sweep the porch area, water the plants and feed the guppies. Came back into the house to get ready for online church

Lunch.

After online church, I cooked sweet drink or tong sui with sweet potatoes, smashed old ginger, sugar and water.

That afternoon, the same friend called up again to inform that she had something for us and hubby went out the collect from her.

Chicken and potato curry from our friend.

Since we had curry, I blanched the above broccoli and drizzled with garlic oil, oyster and soy sauce.

While steaming the rice, I also cooked the last home made salted duck egg. I have another batch of salted egg that will be ready in a few days' time.

Harvested My First Long Bean & Crunchy Snacks

On the 2nd morning of MCO, I harvested the first long bean from my garden. I have grown long beans before and this is by far the longest I have harvested.

The above is the only long bean harvested because the rest were not due for harvest yet.

I measured it and it was 2 feet 6 inches long. Not easy to get the whole long bean into the screen of the camera.

With only 1 long bean and freshly harvested, I have decided to eat it raw with sambal dried prawn.

Received a comb of banana from my neighbour.

Snacks bought from a shop in our area.

Deep fried Honeycomb snack with sesame seeds.

Deep fried muruku snack.

This honeycomb snack is easy to bite, light and crispy, and breaks easily.

This is a bit hard to bite, sign of aging. Lol!

We bought some peanut candy from a roadside stall on one of our morning walk. Surprisingly, this is very fresh and crunchy, and not too sweet.

Pleasant words are like a honeycomb,

sweet and delightful to the soul and healing to the body.
