There were frozen pork, frozen seafood, frozen curry gravy, frozen "nian gao" and some leftover roast duck and chicken....
So, during weekend, I really made effort to clear the freezer/fridge by cooking these for the family
1st dish - was to clear the left over roast meat.
Stew green mustard. This type of dish is so easy to cook, just throw in the green mustard, some leftover meat, season with salt, cili padi, asam jawa and sugar. Done.

2nd dish - was to clear all the frozen pork & frozen seafood (seacucumber, scallop and fish maw)


Braise Seafood

Stew type and braise type of dishes are very easy, can leave them on the stove and cook for a long time, the longer the cooking time, the better the taste...

3rd dish - to clear the curry gravy which we bought in Papa-M's hometown
The frozen curry
I bought the fish specially for this curry dish
Combine both to get this
4th dish - to clear the nian gao
I searched for some recipes from the internet, and I found one which was quite easy to make.
Deep fried nian gao with mash sweet potato, wrapped in popiah skin.

The person who created this recipe is so brilliant. The combination of nian gao with the mash sweet potato was superb. Inside soft, outside crispy.







wow, curry can keep so long? won't it have sour taste?
ReplyDeleteand you could even cook chai tao kuay!!!
i like the chai tao kuay from "hai kee", default already comes with prawns and squids... but without the chaipo...
I had the 2 stewed dishes too coz too much leftover meat. hahaha....The fried nian gao is so special....
ReplyDeletesp - the curry was frozen, so still ok.
