Dad's Homecooked Dinner On Christmas

My dad cooked up quite a storm on X'mas day. He stood in the kitchen preparing the ingredients from morning through evening. It was indeed a labour of love from him to all of us. That's his X'mas present for all of us.

Steamed smooth Ipoh tofu with minced pork and freshly chopped spring onions.


Pan-fried fish with ginger.


Stewed pork ribs with wan yue (cloud ear fungus) and dried oysters.


Stewed chicken with carrots, chinese chestnuts, fresh shiitake mushrooms and potatoes.



Dad also boiled a big pot of delish soup, made up of chicken, pork ribs, roast pork ribs, dried scallops, dried oysters, dried 'wong kai lon' (a type of dried seafood), red dates and lotus roots.

A table filled with delish homecooked food.
There were also 2 plates of blanched lettuce with fried garlic oil and soy sauce, stir-fried french beans with tofu pok and pan-fried fish cake.
