the stuff i cooked up during my leave

aahhhhh, so there you are.. 7 days of block leave.. no plans for trips, no plans for anything or anybody. Erhm, actually there were supposed to be some plans made up .. but let's just say there was an unexpected change in things.

so, just me and my cosy home for these 7 days.. i lurve to clean up my place at my own slow pace.(hey, it rhymes!) i like to cook up something easy and nice for him.
hehehe. its really quite nice to be a housewife for 7 days.. just for that 7 days will do cause, too much of it; i will be bored to death. hahaha.

the stuff i cooked up!


- snow peas with scallops in mama's home cooked hae bi hiam! just stir fry all of it ..its that easy!


- this is my fav dish cause i am such a sotong! oops i meant sotong fan!
i added onions and tomatos for the extra omph! the secret in this dish lies in the sambal paste used. it should be spicy and tangy..my mum bought it for me from toa payoh. there's no brand on the packet, so i can't share. sorry, guys!


- steamed snapper fillet fish with fried minced garlic on top.
the fried garlic idea was inspired by a Joseph's friend while drinking on a sunday night. This guy can cook real well and they were sharing some of their cooking hot tips and got me really geared up for the kitchen the following day.Unfortunately, the fish was a lil' under-cooked and i think he ate some raw fish. Oops!


- on the 2nd morning of my leave, i made a hearty brekkie for myself. I had ham n cheese toast with scrambled eggs, all made complete with my cuppa daily coffee! I am such a morning person! I love my brekkies!


Well, i didnt really cook much ..the rest of the stuff i did were really nothing much and hence, no photos to share.. next up is gonna be the stuff I did during my leave! stay tuned!
