Steamed Chinese Pomfret Fish & Sengkuang Cooked With Pork Strips

On Sunday morning, I was bored with noodles so I told hubby I will walk over to the dim sum restaurant near my house to buy the following items back and brought them to our regular coffee shop.

#1 - Baked bbq bun for me.

#2 - Steamed bbq bun for me.

2 fishballs: 1 for me and 1 for hubby. 

Hubby bought a piece of Chinese cruller and Chinese fried doughnut for himself (no photo to show). We ordered unsweetened milo for me and Chinese tea for hubby.

Home cooked dinner.

To clear the stock from the freezer, I will try to prepare home cooked lunch and dinner for both of us.

Steamed 2 slightly bigger than palm size Chinese pomfrets.

I have 2 more Chinese pomfrets in the freezer for the next meal.

Yam bean and carrot strips cooked with pork strips.

I bought the yam bean thinking I will be making pie tee shells for the new year but it was not to be.

When someone becomes a Christian,

he becomes a brand new person inside.

He is not the same anymore. A new life has begun!

All these new things are from God who brought us back to himself

through what Christ Jesus did.

And God has given us the privilege of urging everyone

to come into his favor and be reconciled to him.

(2 Corinthians 5:17-18, The Living Bible-TLB)

Edibles Growing In My Garden

These days, I have not been out for foodie hunt so today, I will share about the edibles growing in my garden.

Bitter Lettuce.

I got the seeds from a friend.

From the first sowing of seeds, only 2 seedlings sprouted successfully.

I thought the success rate was low, so I sowed all the remaining seeds and these sprouted. These are now grown in the veggie patch in front of my house next to my neighbour's.

Corn plants in the front veggie patch.

I have 4 yam beans growing in black plastic bags in the front garden. Hope there is something for me to harvest in the near future.

Skinny cauliflower plants.

Green brinjals.

Chili plants are still fruiting.

Snake long beans seedlings newly transferred to these big pots.

We found the following mural during our short trip to Penang in 2022.

Children flying kites.

This mural was painted on the side wall of a corner shop.

The rich man thinks of his wealth as an impregnable defense,

a high wall of safety. What a dreamer!

Koi Or Japanese Carps

This was one week before CNY 2023.

Morning sky at 7:05am.

Setting out on our morning walk.

7:15am.

~~~~~

We drove out to Ipoh old town for breakfast at Kedai Kopi Ah Chow.

I ordered noodle in clear soup at RM6.50

I don't know if the price has been increased.

There was a prawn, few pieces of roast pork and chicken meat.

Hubby ordered dry curry noodle at RM6.50 from the same stall.

~~~~~

We were with friends at this place and there is a fish pond with lots of beautiful Japanese carps swimming in it.

The sky reflected in the water.

The water is very clear.

Linking to Saturday's Critters.

Again, the Kingdom of Heaven can be illustrated

by a fisherman - he casts a net into the water and

gathers in fish of every kind, valuable and worthless.

When the net is full, he drags it up onto the beach and

sits down and sorts out the edible ones onto crates

and throws the other away.

(Matthew 13:47-48, The Living Bible-TLB)
