Simple Food

Thought I ate too much high cholesterol food recently, so today just cook some simple food.
And some herbal tea.

Stir Fried Pork Belly and Hong Kong Kai Lan in Oyster Sauce

Just bought this Pork belly from NTUC market, I decided to stir fry it.
1. I put it in a bowl, pour the boil water on it for 2 second and quickly pour away the boil water, one is to wash it, two is to make the pork meat just soft after cook.
Do not put in the boil or hot water too long otherwise the meat will became very hard.

2. I put some Kikkoman Soya sauce, some Teriyaki sauce, some ShaoXing ‘Hua Diao’ wine (type of Chinese wine that good for cooking; you can use other wine as you like), few drops of sesame oil; then left it about 25-30 minutes.

3. Put some oil in the wok and put the big cut portions pork belly in and fry it, you must control the heat of the wok, because in a wrong heat and timing, will caused the meat became very hard hence spoilt the taste. I was hard to tell how long you should cook it but I cook it in my electronic flat wok with 220 degree about few minutes and make it cook about 95% done.

Just serve in a small piece will by tasty! :p

If you not go with some red wine, try this! Heehee!
How aboutsome ‘Hong Kong Kai Lan’?

Lunch at Choi Snack House

Had my lunch at one of my favorite places which is at Blk 532 Ang Mo Kio St52. I had the sweet and sour pork rice today which is one of my favorite dishes. Other dishes I usually order including pork rib rice, sliced fish with onion and gingers etc. Their curry fish head also very good but you have to eat with friends because the size was big in clay pot.I like the food here because the price is reasonable, especially the food was not salty as many coffee shop, the time taken to delivery the food to you is faster then the coffee shop as well.

Chinese New Year is Near

Passing by Raffles City Shopping Centre and found that the decoration had been changed to Chinese New Year Theme.There are some stalls selling Chinese New Year stuffs by artist from China, one of the stall having a portrait artist, looks his business quiet good, thought because his drawing skill is good as well that’s why many people go to him.I have not passing by Vivo City yet, I guest down there should be having some Chinese New Years stalls running be China artist as well, last year was few portrait artists and caricaturists as well, thought this year could be the same.

I passing by Ang Mo Kio Central almost everyday, did not realized there are a road sign likr this! Haahaa!Ah! Saw Mr Lee Kim Kuan doing his large size calligraphy down here as per usual during Chinese New Year nearby period.
