Cooking Lesson

I had cooking teaching lesson yesterday. One of my friends, a Samoan who want to learn how to cook Malaysian Cuisines. He likes cooking, no doubt each time when we have a discussion of food he will definitely asked the ingredients.

I had prepared all the ingredients before hand. He helped me with stirring while I add on all the ingredients in the wok. I showed and 'teaches' him 3 dishes. Rice noodle curry laksa, Tiger Prawn 'masak lemak' and 'Tempe' (Tempeh) fried with soy sauce. He never knew Tempe before, which is a fermented soy.

Once everything ready we had our lunch. He really enjoying all the meals. No voice heard but munching all the way and add on few time. :-)

New Place in Town

(Salmon Sandwich)

A new shopping place in town. Hmm shopping, ;-)
New DFO (Direct Factory Outlet) location which is at the Wharf.
Big place. Since they just open this place, few shops offer good bargain.

I have no choice, I need to buy new shoes. The one that I have been using it had worn off. Even one of my patient ask me I should get a new shoe. How embarrassing.

Bit difficult to buy shoes here since most of working shoes has pig skin as lining especially the cheaper shoes.

Roti Jala from Melbourne

Suddenly I feels like to have 'Roti Jala' today for lunch. Since I don't have the appropriate utensil for making the 'Roti Jala', I have to improvise. Inspired by Poh from Master Chef Australia, I used small milk box to make the 'Roti Jala'.

Good experiment, and it work. ;-)

A day of Gifts...

On Friday, one of my patients Donald, brought a broad beans for me from his veg garden. Then later in the afternoon Gregory as promised made for me Masamas Curry (a Thai curry) which he had the recipe from his Thai friend. He called me a day earlier to ask me how hot I want the curry. I told him 5 stars hot. :-), instead it not hot enough, just hot. He was a bit upset. Then I told him the curry was really nice, rich and taste really yummy. He now knows at least my level of hot. He will make again and make it much much hot. :-)
