Salmon my favorite

I usually boil red beans at night. I set it to low for three hours. When I get up in the morning, I just have to add in some rock sugar. Not too sweet though. Both my husband and girl love the soup while I simply love the beans. But it is too much for me. I usually would share with my people at the shop. 

But this time round, I used the beans to mix into the boiled agar-agar.

I poured it into three tupperwares. The first two tupperwares were given to my people. One made roti canai for my husband while the other one's mum cooked porridge and fried bihun for  us. The last tupperware was for my girl and I.

I used to go marketing once or twice in a week. I would buy greens, chicken and fish. I bought a slice of salmon for only RM9. I fried it for myself. I also fried two pieces of other fish for my boy and girl. I didn't keep the salmon for them as they came back home rather late after school.


my lunch..
salmon is best eaten when just newly pan-fried..

I always take my lunch first before I go to work.

    I had fried salmon at my bro home on sunday, I had the part which is very oily even frying without using cooking oil. I have to eat it with wasabe to get rid of the fishy taste. But salmon is a very good fish to consume.

      I prefer fresh raw salmon. I always attack the salmon whenever it is being served at the buffet counter.

    I love to eat salmon and also red bean soup. I used to boil red bean soup without putting in any sugar at all and I still find the taste very nice. Very delicious food indeed. Have a good day, Wenn.

    Love red beans. Just had Ice Kachang yesterday with friends. Salmon is lovely but we can't get fresh ones in Miri. Cold storage only.

      Salmon sashimi is delicious. Too bad all my family member doesn't like salmon. Raw or cooked, they doesn't like the taste. Normally, i will only buy 1 block and cook for my ownself.

    Salmon is a very good fish. But can be very fatty if consume alot. So the better way to cook salmon is grill. If fry can use lesser oil.

Twin bananas

Image
Today this cute little darling visited me. His grandparents brought him over for the very first time. He's so cute as he smiled readily. I was tempted to carry him and he was fine with that. Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
