Asian Style Spagetthi

Did you miss my home cook recipe ? hihihi.... not something to be proud of actually.

I never buy spagetthi from our cafe as I always think that I can cook the "same" as they do. :-D I don't see anything special in their servings. Neither do they have a nice deco. Hence, I will turn to other choices.

I do not cook spagetthi because I want to have it. It is always because I do not have enough time to cook rice and sometimes I do not have "enough" ingredients to make up a few dishes. That's when I take out my spagetthi.

My ingredients always changes. This time, I cook it in Asian style, like "fried noodle". :-D (Got the idea from my colleague).

Preparation time: 15 mins
Cooking time: 15 mins

Ingredients that I used:
For frying
Sausage
Button Mushroom
Mix vegetable
Crab meat
Onion

For taste
a slice of cheddar Cheese per serving
tomato sauce
dash of Salt
dash of sugar
dash of pepper

For garnishing
Herbs

Method:
1) In a pot, bring water to boil and put in the spagetthi.
2) In another pan, heat up the pan and add some cooking oil.
3) Throw in onion and fry till fragrant. Add in all the "frying ingredients" and saute till fragrant.
4) Add tomato sauce, salt, sugar, half cup of water / milk.
5) Bring water/milk to boil. Turn off flame. Add in pepper and cheese.
6) Sprinkle herbs on top for garnishing.
and....... it's Ready to serve! :-)

My Asian Style Spagetthi. Something different from the usual Spagetthi Bolognese. :-D

Dragon Fruit Flower

Have you ever seen a dragon fruit flower before? It was my first time seeing it. Thanks to my neighbor for her love for plants! :)

I only came to know that dragon fruit flower blooms in the night from 9pm + to 11pm and it only bloom once a day. After that time, it will close up....

Here are some of the close shots that I took. Big and beautiful!

Sou Men (素麺) Soup

This is my first Sou Men (in Japanese) soup.

My neighbor taught me a very simple and fast dish which I never thought that it would be Such DeLlicious.
She cooked it with Yam cake made by herself and I replaced the yam cake to Sou Men. :-) (as I always do change recipes). hahaha

Ingredients:
1 pack (250g) Sou Men (素麺) 250g
4 shallots (finely chopped)
1 big Shiitake mushroom (soak till tender)
2 stalks Kau choy (ku chai)
1 bowl Bean sprout

Soup base (Seasoning):
3tbsp light soy sauce
1 tbsp oyster sauce
pepper to taste
(adjust the soup taste depending on the brand and the intensity of the sauces)

Garnish (optional)
Parsley

Method:
1. In a pot, bring water to boil and put in sou men. (add a little oil) Boil till tender. Drain and flush sou men in cold water.

2. Fry shallots till golden brown. Put aside, add shiitake mushroom and fry till fragrant.
3. Add 3 bowls of water, cover with lid and bring water to boil.
4. Add Kau choy and bean sprout and seasoning, simmer for just a little while.
5. Turn off flame. Divide the sou men into each serving and add in soup.

And it's ready to serve ! This is one dish that you must try. But if you do not like shallot taste, then reduce the amount.

We all simply love it !
