Homecooked Food

Whenever my mil is around, she normally does the cooking and I don't have to lift a finger.... and I am lucky as cooking takes up a lot of time, energy and sweat. Now that she's away, I have to plan the cooking, which has to be simple dishes and do the cooking myself as my maid can't cook despite teaching her repeatedly and I can't be away from Baby C for too long.

I cooked these yesterday :

Stir-fried 'kwai tau miu' or baby french beans with garlic.



Stir-fried choy sum with garlic.


And bak kut teh with 2 hard boiled eggs, dried mushrooms, foo choke (dried soy bean sheets), dried bamboo fungus and RM20 worth of pork ribs. I thought of cooking a big pot and deep freezing half a portion but everything was polished off the same night! The bak kut teh was a big hit with everyone. Even my fussy caterer hubby who had sore throat ate it!


Also cooked a big pot of pork ribs and fish slice congee for hubby. Mr Fussy Pot didn't complain and polished off the pot of congee too.... and I was one happy housewife! Nothing makes me happier than everyone enjoying and finishing what I've cooked without any fuss and complaints :)
