i read , i cook , i eat

i'm awake , i'm awake !
and it's thursday already ...

wednesday passed by in one heck of a hurry man ...
read books, watched die hard 4.0 again, and chilled to music ...
and cooked !!

lunch of instant pasta for me my sis and bro was prepared by me
had to cook 3 times cause all had different flavours ... LOL
<3 San Remo Instant Pastas <3

dinner was also prepared by me ... with the exception of the vege dish =p
mmmm ... maybe i'll go try making a vege dish ... but ... what are the odds ?
hehe ...

first dish was easy ...
deep fried salmon parts ...
i did mention parts right ?
all the funny parts that CAN be eaten just filled with bones T.T
mummy kinda took the wrong bag of salmon out ... lol ...
think it was supposed to be a bag of salmon parts for soup =x

second dish was relatively easy ...
grilled chicken fillets ... with a weird combination of marinates ...
still experimenting here =p
but hey , it turned out fine !
quite glad the taste came out fine ...
and that i grilled both sides to a more or less nice colour and texture
and my brother literally ate more than half of the chicken meant for 5 of us ... tsk ...
although i do take that as a compliment =d

third dish was Hong Xiu Tofu ...
my way !
this dish was troublesome cause the egg tofu had to be deep fried first ...
and did i mention tofu like cui very easily ?
the previous time i made this ... it cui until ... cui lor ...
pan fried the tofu that time though ...
anyway ... tried a different combination of sauces for the gravy ...
turned out pretty good if i say so myself =D
and the liquid egg topping was better than last time ...
but i still overdid it ...
shouldn't have cooked the egg that long ... just throw the egg in ... stir abit than serve liao ...
oh wells ...

we learn from experience right ?
haha ...

i'ma go read more of my book now ... lol ... you must think i'm mad ... wake up so early to read ...

=p
