Hakka dish: Mei Cai Kou Rou / 梅菜扣肉

I had been tinking of this dish since preggy.. ate it once @ granny place..
Decided its time to make my own... THis time decided to change to the belly pork which is the most original dish that hakka cooked.
I didn't used much seasoning caused i decided to cook more and its already very rich in flavour on its own... and keeping it means it will get richer in taste as the day passed...

Enjoying my Mei cai with congee today... WOW... i managed to eat 2 bowls of congee which i hardly felt like eating more then 1/2 a bowl nowsaday... always bloated even when i dun eat anything...super hard to resist it...

 

 

 

Shou bao/ peach bun

I cannot resists these lovely peach bun when I saw the Aunty coming to sell it. She is only seem at the market when there is a occasion..

When young only when there us a prayer session den we will get to eat it coz it's not sold everyday like normal baos...

Seeing such huge n pretty one.. Though they r quite ex ( a dollar each) n she does had smaller ones but I prefer these... Its nt as if i eat it everyday so it's all worth it.

Its so heart breaking to watch the news nowsaday.. It never occured that such a BIG HIT will hit onto Japan though they are famous for having earthquake every now and then.. its just a common thing BUT it striked on the tsunami.. that taken aways thousands of lives...
 
It reminded of the movie.. 2012... i ever asked Mr sim WHAT if such thing really happened...I cried so badly and Mr sim told me its just a show... its a scary thought that will bring tears no matter how strong one is...

Cabbage Congee

 

 

We used to eat cabbage rice often but recently am not very keen to have rice @ nite..
So decided to cook congee with it...
A very lil tasting congee that is suitable for the vegetarians too.
