Hi again.. To day i'm sharing from my kitchen food. Basically i knowing this a long time already, done it. Only lazy make me stop. But here again i think i started again to feel being like have my own plant of food. So on last Saturday, I had soaked the green bean and close it with no light directed in the bowl. I use big steel bowl and a basket with small hole that can drain the water. The reason that i used it with the whole because it easier for me to replace the water everyday. This fresh taugeh can be harvest on the 3rd day.. and to your cooking dish. So yummy and fresh when cook with garlic or ikan masin (salted fish) or ketiau goreng (fied noodle). This method was a good idea for mum that's not often go out to fresh market for veggie also saving more money.. That's for now,.. happy Wednesday. Just Me Nora oxoxox

Ham Choy My weekend on 8th March 2015, doing my homemade Green Pickles Ham Choy vegetable. That the only name I knew so far, I not sure in other name.. I bought a big bag of this bitter veggie as cheaper this hot season at Cybrecity pasar sayur, along Jalan Lintas. I guess it probably in around 2-3kg for RM3 each bag. So I manage to do as in the picture. This can be cooked after 7-14 days... These veggie very popular in Chinese but these day everyone know and love to eat & cooking this dish at Sabah. Me and my family also love it when cook with pork (non-halal) or chicken or fish soup. I get the recipe from my step mum, which very helpful and DIY. If bought out side at pasar only RM1.50 or RM2.00 for 100~200gm  for a few stalk of veggie. When doing this can be last for months and more saver.. That for my weekends, that always full. I forgotten to take a pic before and during i made this. Perhaps next blog I will updated. Just Me Nora OXOXOX
