Steamboat Dinner

Hubby's colleagues arranged for a steamboat dinner party at our place. His boss supplied most of the ingredients (very generous supply that can last for another meal!) and we prepare the soup and food arrangement. A satisfying meal complete with soft drinks topped with Baskin Robbins vanilla ice-cream - supplied by his colleagues too.

Dinner at Hilton Kuala Lumpur

Had a nice dinner at Chynna Restaurant at Hilton Kuala Lumpur and can't resist to take a photo of this dish ....... so much of great and interesting stuff in it.

Started dinner with *lou yee sang* using this big long chopsticks.

.... and ended with this simple dessert.

Steam Big Prawns

After work, both hubby and I were not feeling really hungry and decided no rice for today. At the end, we just had prawns that my hubby bought from Tawau, Sabah, Malaysia. It only takes about 10 minutes to prepare and 8 minutes to steam it. Firstly, rub salt to the prawns and then place a tbsp of cooking oil, seafood sauce to taste and sprinkle some shredded ginger.



mmm..... it tasted so fresh.

Prawn Fritters

This recipe was obtained from colleague's recipe collection book which she hasn't try yet. I think it would taste much better if they were done into smaller sizes. How about adding fresh prawns?

Ingredients:
(About 30 fritters)

1 1/2 cups flour
1 cup dried prawns, soaked in hot water (chopped)
1 big onion
1 egg
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 cup warm water
Coriander leaves (cut up fine)
Oil for deep frying

Put the flour, baking powder, salt and egg in a mixing bowl. Add the warm water slowly until you have a thick batter. Add the dried prawns, onion and coriander leaves and mix well. Meanwhile, heat up the cooking oil and when hot, drop spoonfuls of batter into the oil and fry the fritters until golden brown. Serve with chilli sauce.
