Fried Sengkuang

We love fried sengkuang and it has become our favorite since my mum cooked for us when my kids were still young. But mum wouldn't be here as often to fry for us so I got to learn.

Now it has become an easy dish for me to dish up. I prepared this dish specially for my girl as she came back for the weekend.

First, stir-fry the prawns and minced meat with garlic and oil.
Then pour in the shredded sengkuang and carrot.
Add some light soya sauce. 
Add some water and let it simmer.

the result

best eaten with fresh lettuce

I asked her: "How's the sengkuang?"
She replied: "Yummy!"

    Good morning Wenn,

    Sengkuang is naturally slightly sweet so with the carrot, even without any soy sauce, the dish will taste very nice. I like to eat sengkuang raw too.

    Have a good night sleep!

    The Koreans love this too because we wrap with lettuce leaves which they also wrap with meat etc.

    I've never heard of sengkuang and don't exactly know what it is. It does look delicious though.

    My grandma used to cook sengkuang for us while I stayed with her when I was a child. If I am not mistaken she planted some in her vegetable farm and sold some at the tamu, I missed her a lot :(

Angry Birds

We went for breakfast one day and I was fascinated by those angry birds balloon. They were so colorful and kids would definitely love them.. angry birds balloons..lelong..lelong.. @@@ In Angry Birds , players control a flock of multi-colored birds that are attempting to retrieve eggs that have been taken by a group of evil green pigs. On each level, the pigs are sheltered by structures made of various materials such as wood, ice and stone, and the objective of the game is to eliminate all the pigs in the level. Using a slingshot, players launch the birds with the intent of either hitting the pigs directly or damaging the structures, causing them to collapse and kill the pigs. In various stages of the game, additional objects such as explosive crates and rocks are found in the structures, and may be used in conjunction with the birds to destroy hard-to-reach pigs. source
