What I cooked today (家常便饭系列）- 30-6-2013
On 30 June, 2013
White rice served with:
| 30-Jun | Watercress Pork Rib Soup | 西洋菜排骨汤 |
| 30-Jun | Braised Chicken Wings | 酱鸡翅 |
| 30-Jun | Grilled Sanma (Pacific Saury) with lemon | 柠檬烤秋刀鱼 |
| 30-Jun | Chinese Water Spinach fried with fermented beans | 蕹菜炒豆瓣酱 |
The last two days were full of functions and no home cooking were done. Today, I have done my weekly marketing. You will start to see perishable vegetables will start appearing in the beginning of the week. Usually, watercress and Chinese water spinach was cooked in the day of purchase .
Recently, Singapore wet market was flooded with “Japanese Restaurant” fish and today, i was surprised to see thawed pacific saury (sanma). The price is rather competitive and 4 fishes (8 pieces of about 4-5 inches long) cost about SGD 4 averaging out is SGD1 per fish which is even cheaper than the black promfret.
Today, my wife fried the Chinese spinach (kangkong). As she like her dish spicy, she had prepared two plates, one with chilli and another plate fried with Chinese fermented beans. THE PRICE IS INCREDIBLY LOW TODAY. 1 BUNDLE ONLY COST SGD 20 cents but must purchase in a pack of 5. We cooked 3 packs and gave the other 2 packs to my neighbours. Do you concur with me that the price of food items are relatively cheaper than in Malaysia (but of course without any currency conversion).
This type of post may appeared dull if you looked at it on a daily basis. However, if you read on a weekly basis, you will start to see patterns that may be useful for those who want some dish rotation ideas..Cheers and have a nice day!
