Last night was my m.a.l.a.s night.
So I decided only to cook simple dishes....
Steam Sea-bass
Garlic & shallots (4 each) - sliced
Ginger (abt 2 inches) - sliced
Lemon grass (1) - pound
Kaffir lime leaf (2-3pcs)
Chili (4-5) - pound (I used bird's eye chili a.k.a. cili padi)
2-3 lime (limau kasturi) - squeeze the juice out
a pinch of sugar and salt, to taste
1 cup of water
Put everything in a deep wok and cover. Let it simmer slowly and once the water starts to boil, add in the fish (I used 3 small seabass).
Cover the wok again and let the fish cook in the sauce for about 5-8 minutes, depending on the size of your fish.
Serve while hot. Tastes like steam fish because you don't really use oil, just let everything boils in the wok. (actually I was really lazy to take out the steamer..... hahahhahah).
Then I cooked another dish....
Simple Chicken Soup
Pound 2-3 garlic & shallots, and fry with 1 tbsp of olive oil.
Add in 2 tsp dry soup powder (I used Adabi) and continue to fry (I didnt mix the powder with water because I was lazy.... again....)
Fry for 1-2 minutes, add in 'soup bunjut', diced carrots, cut potatoes, and chicken.
Add 1 cup of water and let it boil.
Add more cups of water if required.
Add chinese celery & spring onion
Add a pinch of salt, to taste and you can add ground black pepper, if you like it a bit spicy.
There you go, all prepared in less than an hour :)
Enjoy the recipes peeps.
