Tom Yam Poktek Part I

We were having our lunch in this Thai Restaurant at Paya Terubong last weekend. We ordered Tom Yam Poktek soup. It taste so GOOD and yummy-licious!It's a clear soup and has grind lemongrass,red bird chili,kafir lime leaves,galangal,and a little bit of ginger. All this ingredients grind together and turn it into clear soup served with oyster mushroom,prawns and chopped coriander leaves. It has some sour and spicy taste. To my assumption they have grind the red bird chili together with the rest of the ingredient as I saw some chili flakes in the soup. And also they have added the 'asam keping' in making this special soup. I've tried to google the recipe online but I did not come accross of any similar cooking as the one I had.

It's about time for me to use my taste buds to do the cooking. Hope it turn out to be a good one. I have all the ingredients needed for this cooking stock up in the gridge except for prawns and coriander leaves as this two ingredients I will need a fresh one. Let's see this is going to be my Saturday project or Sunday project.

Ever heard of stir fried Spaghetti? Well I am going to try this cooking this weekend.

Fried Oyster-O'chien (Relau-Taman Bendera kopitiam)

I used not to eat fried oyster because I hate the oyster texture but two years ago I had my first try on o-chien at Jelutong market I started to fall in love with it. Soon after bf took me to try an another o-chien in town near prangin mall the road side kopitiam where they served the best koay teow th'ng the o'chien taste good. And when there's an o'chien stall open at the eateries near my house we had a try on it..and guess what this o'chien taste way better than the two places where I had the o'chien before. The price is cheap and potion is big.

During my friend's wedding dinner last Tuesday they served us with Indonesia King Prawn Curry but to our surprised the curry is SO DELICIOUS! They served with deep fried mantau and now I am google-ing through see if anyone does cook the same type of curry~ Both of us missed that dish so so much :D

Claypot Chicken in Dark Soya Sauce

I cooked this dish before BUT..it's Claypot Egg Tofu. After BF tried on my tofu he has given me an idea to cook the same dish but to add in chicken instead of tofu. So I did as he requested. The taste is the same its just that I've added in chicken meat. I also add some chopped red chili to spice up the cooking. I've did some slight adjustment for the sauce as the first time when I was cooking claypot egg tofu I realize that too much dark soya sauce been added and the color does not look good.
