: : Granny’s Cooking : :

Yay yay! I’m back! And with more pics of Granny’s cooking!

I luv snow peas. They’re always so sweet and crunchy. Easy to do with stir-fry but remember to add the garlic in! Granny has cooked it with crabsticks (which were falling apart by the time she finished cooking). Only thing to do with the beans is to remove the ends and the fibre that is along the joined seams (no idea how to call it).

And my favourite again! Oh it taste so good. The white fungus can be found in it’s dried form. Needs to be soaked in hot water first and then rinsed before cooking it with chicken. That’s all one needs to do to make this great soup.

On another note, technoLAHgist a.k.a. information seeker, provide me a link to the Cook’s Thesaurus. It even has belachan there! Disguised as shrimp paste. Check it out!

Update : Thanks to feli so telling me it’s not French beans but rather snow peas. 🙂

: : Waiting List : :

%)@(*%)@(*%)(*#@%!!!

There’s a very long waiting list for Streamnyx users in Kuching. Waiting time is now more than 2 months! Bloody heck!

Oh well. Guess I have no choice but to sign up and join the queue.

*Sigh*

: : Granny Pounding Chilli : :

Actually forgot to post this video up. It’s Granny pounding the chilli and other ingredients together to get the chilli sauce.

Gawd, I hate JARING dialup. The past few days since Monday was bad. Well, procrastinated enough. Going to go to Kedai Telekom tomorrow and get Streamnyx.

As for pics, a bit sporadic for the next few days. What to do? Gotta wait people while I sort it all out.

: : Pasar Kampung, Tabuan Laru : :

I wonder if it’s going to be a long-term thing that Jaring is slowly down all of a sudden. Sigh. Couldn’t even surf the net last nite. Everything is now a day late. Screaming my frustrations will do no good. Am now seriously considering streamnyx but we’ll see. Hopefully, things will start to look up by the end of the week.

Lunch yesterday was at Pasar Kampung and I’m running out of choices to post up from that place. So, we have to make do with pictures of chicken salad and ais jagung with sago.

Jac had the chicken salad today which I usually avoid. Not a big fan of thousand island sauce and if one eats chicken rice, one can get a better deal. Still, made a good picture.

I’m just a fan of ais jagung (iced corn) but this time, I ask that sago pearls be added in. Adds an interesting flavour and taste to the whole dish. Overall, the entire drink is a glucose bomb, as grace would say.

Grace, I need MagiK to speed up my connection at home lah! ;p

: : Grapefruit : :

Jaring connection was so slow last night that it was impossible to post anything up. Cheh! So, it’s going up today.

Granny : I see you eat that thing, already my gigi bergetar (my teeth is shaking).

Bought it from Choice Daily Supermarket at Tabuan Laru. It look so good even though it was priced EXPENSIVELY at RM5.90 per fruit. Still, it was very sweet and not too sour. Thinking of getting another one tonight. Yum yum. I miss eating grapefruit everyday for breakfast. Well, at least I have a source for this fruit now. Reminds me of an orange-pomelo hybrid. 🙂

: : Local Bakery : :

Granny : I want to buy some cucur and bread!

So, off we went to the bakery nearby. We usually go to Sunflower Deli in Tabuan Laru to buy some snacks although haven’t made a trip there since Kuching Fest started.

Cucur

Looks like little pieces of fried chicken or worst, frogs! Urgh. That just about killed everyone’s appetite I’m sure. Still, it’s very crunchy and tasty. A bit more pricey than the prawn cucur but tasted good.

Angel Cake ala Soya Bean

Couldn’t believe it when the cashier mentioned that soya bean is used to make this angel cake. Still, it was very soft and you can taste the vanilla with the soy bean milk together. Yum! Something different for the week. Very light in flavour. Think it was steamed but could be wrong. However, very oily because of the butter used. Urgh.

Live to Eat or Eat to Live? That is the question.
