Today being Sunday, no posts to blog so I will share with you what I cooked. I am no chef. I am an idiot and a lazy man when it comes to the kitchen. So everything is very simple. After all, this is not a food blog 
hahahahaha. Anyway Sunday is Mrs Bengbeng’s day of rest.
Ingredients: ready made kurma curry sauce, Ayamas drumets, bitter-gourd, an egg. Not in pic : tomatos, big onions
Bitter gourd:
Put a little oil, stir fry some small slices of big onions, then bitter gourd. The key is to fry the bitter gourd on high flame for as short a time as possible to lessen the bitter taste. When almost ready, add a little water and then an egg. Stir fry the egg and the bitter gourd until it is cooked. No need to add salt or any other condiments.
Add oil, fry on low flame until the bottom of chicken pieces are cooked. Overturn the chicken pieces and leave until it is cooked. So simple. That’s what supermarkets are for. I used Ayamas chicken drumets
This is the meal.
Chicken curry kurma: it tasted better when I did it the original way. Using pre-cooked sauce in packets..it is not quite the same.
Left-overs from lunch :
Soup- chicken stock obtained from double boiled method, red dates ( ang cho ) , mushrooms, shredded cabbage dumped in at the last moment, salt according to taste.
Long beans stir-fried with eggs.
I think this is quite a complete meal. If I can cook this, any one can . When I was in West Malaysia, I noticed, most people have this culture of eating outside almost all the time. There are advantages to home-cooked meals. Economical, clean and lots, lots of dishes to wash hahahahhahaha.
Benghui was too busy at the computer to come over to eat. Any body wants a second hand computer? I must sell it because Benghui is obsessed with the computer nowadays .
Mrs Bengbeng is also almost always busy at her computer nowadays too. I can’t imagine what life will be like for my family if computers hadn’t been invented
Mrs Bengbeng is now complaining I am getting way over-weight. I definitely need to go on a diet hahaha
to reduce the bitterness of the bitter gourd, you can try to rub some salt in, then leave it for a while, depending on how unbitter you want it to be, then wash and cook as usual …
normally i fry them then fry them with egg …
or just fry them to crispy like the ones u find in the banana leaf restaurant …
wow..thanks. i will try as u say. cool. my kid doesnt like them too bitter so yr advice will come in handy
Earl-ku is right. Hubby told me that too. I like to eat Bitter Gourd and I always cook it the same way you did… with eggs. Oh yes, I tried bitter-gourd deep fried with Salty Eggs. You must try it.. very nice. Crispy outside and soft inside.
BB: i definitely must try this, thx.
Looks like you had a nice home cooked meal. Who washed the dishes afterwards?
Ah! I can’t see Flickr photos because the site is blocked by my network admin! Anyway… how come Benghui obsessed with the computer? Is he playing games or what? Just to share with you that I was obsessed with computers too, now I’m making a living from it
He writes his BM and English essays on the computer and plays with maths software on the computer. Sometimes he creates pictures using ‘paint’ which he learned in school. He has too little time as it is to study for his school exams.
I don’t like bitter gourd too but fried bitter gourds are yummy.
Eh you look stunning in the blur pict. Hahaha can’t really see your ‘expanded’ tummy.
Expanded tummy seen only in side profile hahhaahaha
