Go Far East

itu hari Go East - thailand & vietnam, on saturday nite we went further east to Japan for Prawn & Vege tempura.


then last nite we crossed over to mainland China.. ini semua gara2 my cousin suzie.. yes, there's always someone to blame lah kan..

suzie wrote on her wall yesterday that she was making Seafood Treasure Egg Drop Soup for iftar. wow! what a mouthful name for a dish and i was intrigued to know what  its all about. apaprently Seafood Trasure = scallop + dried siput gajah (??) + seaweed; Egg Drop Soup = beaten egg + water dropped into chicken broth. her exotic chinese dish reminded me of dimsum & wonton noodle soup...and i told encik suami thats what we were going to have for iftar then.

waah kemain berkobar macam pernah buat..Fact - i've never made dimsum or wonton before but there's always a first time lah kan..apa2 pun kena cari ingredients and bamboo steamer; despite  having a big periuk kukus already. standard lah, kenalah cukup alat baru ada semangat lebih sikit. i used the recipe (with some modification)  from  The Everyday Chinese Cookbook setebal 500 pages but cost only £2!!  
Alhamdulillah adalah rupa (pics taken before steaming & frying)  & rasa dimsum & wonton and eveybody enjoyed the meal..


for dessert, i bought Sesame Mo-chee aka Kuih Bom Jepun.

recipe for dimsum & wonton & noodle soup can be found in http://weightwatchersnott.blogspot.com/
