DR KOH KHO KING

Beef with potatoes.

A special cake or roti from my friend, George, during Christmas. Thanks!

Delicious! Raisins and nuts inside.

Less than RM3.00.

In Japan, you can only get one piece.

In Malaysia, one bunch.

WHO recently announced that due to the decrease of supply in wheat and rice, the next possible best food to replace them is BANANA. Yes, you read it right, banana. Great nutrition.

Yes…home grown tomato…

My wife said got insect bites already, so must quick quick pick for me to “EAT” tomorrow. I hope there is no “half” worm after my first bite (half in tomato means the other half is in the mouth)…

Which one do you prefer? Both are wheat germ loaf.

Gardenia on the left, Massimo on the right.

Personally I find Massimo to be more spongy than Gardenia. Softer as well. Yes, nowadays I buy Massimo all the time, unless if sold out.

This is our mango tree…small but fruitful!

Saw the yellow one? The photo was taken in the afternoon, and at night we decided to KAOTIM it.

Unique. Crispy on the outside (not fully ripe?) and extremely sweet inside. First time having eaten such unique mango! Perfect! Praise the Lord!

By Foong Can Cook…

Add the soup…

End result. It is delicious!

Served in our newly bought bowl.

Another delicious dish…Ginger pork!

Ok, have to jog again tomorrow…

These things going to turn into TOMYAM later…

My wife is a TOMYAM master…hahaaa….

Landscape view.

Now you know why I need a running shoe…heavy food…fruits…Durian! My favorite!

Aeon sales, 3 packs for RM30. Original is RM24.99 per pack with 30% discount, or 2 packs and get 50% discount, or 3 packs at RM30. Of course go for 3 packs! No, not finishing them all at once. Put in fridge can be very nice!

How do they taste? Not bad, 8/10 I would rate. Not very strong smell or taste. The OLD TREE I bought few days ago is better. Still, RM10 per pack (I paid RM21 for the old tree pack), no complaint lah.

My wife bought two mushroom seeds from UK Farm last week, and grow them at home. As according to the salesman, we can harvest 5 times before the seeds run out.

This is Day 1

This is Day 4

Where we put? At our bathroom actually, as the moisture and temperature is good there for mushroom to grow.

I think need a week to grow before we harvest it. Can’t wait to try out! Self-grown normally taste better…

Ohisashiburi no Kang Kong, eventually found in Japan!!

(I saw Megumi’s foot on the lower left of the photo)

I know those of you in Malaysia must be laughing at me now, but nevermind, you might not understand how a KangKong lover found KangKong after three years missing of it.

Today while shopping at the Vege stall nearby the eki, I found this!! Immediately took 10 packages without second thought. Well, it doesnt cost much compare to other type of vege, 39 yen per pack, expenssive? I would say not expenssive at all.

This is the first time I found KangKong here in Japan. I don’t think it can be found in the supermarket, in any season. But I always found surprise in this very small vege stall.

Since now is summer, some vege like the cili, sweet corn, ladyfinger are selling very cheap. So eat more vege!

Hmm.. tonight I’m gonna cook a big plate of KangKong Belacan!! Yeah!!

Updated by hubby:
The finished product…

Megumi also curious…

Yes…VERY Very very delicious…not easy to make…take quite some time…I don’t know how…but I can testify that it is YUMMY!

I will let Foong add the recipe if she has the mood…kinda busy and busy and busy recently…

My wife cook this dinner for me last night…very yummy…have to take photo…

Thank you, dear!

Since I am getting Mozart…my wife must get something too…a red wine…not sure how it tastes yet…not yet opened, might try in a week time.

Here is the photo…just for remembrance.

Around JPY800 per bottle.

我的好朋友美燕，她们家以前是开酒家的，她妈妈我叫阿姨，别人叫阿娇，做的料理特别好吃。2007年新年后阿姨就退休了。可是她煮的食物实在是太好吃了，离乡背井的我，常常自己揣摩她的秘密食谱。今天，我做了卤猪耳。虽然不能做到跟阿姨100％一样的味道出来，但是用来安慰一下思念家乡的心，还可以啦。。

想知道怎样做？

今天我终于做成了炸油条！虽然长得不是太好看，可是味道很接近了。哈哈，想不到在日本还可以吃到炸油条，真是幸福！！！

豆豉苦瓜焖鸡肉。

切片洋葱，姜，葱末炒香。加入苦瓜，鸡肉和豆豉一起炒。加适量水闷至苦瓜烂，用少许糖调味，收汁。

注： 豆豉本身已经带咸，所以如果喜欢吃咸的，下盐前先尝一下味道。免得太咸了。

韭菜切幼＋小干虾（日本的“樱花虾〕＋面粉＋ 糖少许＋水， 搅成面粉浆，干煎或deep fried都可以。如果不要用干虾，可以用肉末。

苦瓜榨菜番茄汤。

如果有红萝卜也可以加进去。甜酸苦辣一锅熟！ 

在日本，当苦瓜，香蕉，青菜(绿叶)，青豆，草莓都变成很多很便宜时，就是春天来了！

 夏天里则有西瓜，蜜瓜，jagung, 奇异果，姜， 黄瓜，番茄 等等等。。

My wife cook us nice dinner today…

Our 4th Anniversary wedding dinner…

One…two…three…four…five…dishes!

The main attraction is of course the crabs…

As for Megumi…same as usual…

I ate 3~4 bowls of rice…how to keep fit like that?! Nevermindlah…tummy uses as pillow loh…

Thank you again, dear.

This is one of my love to eat dish! Fried sotong (hmm…what do you call it in English?)…Ok…I remember now…squid…

Not easy to fried till golden colour…sorry…I don’t know how…you will have to ask my wife…but I can tell you it tastes GREAT! Very crispy and chewy!

咖哩不是我最喜欢的， 但是因为是诺诺他爸爸的最爱， 所以我下定决心也要学会煮给他吃。凡大节日都煮给他吃。 昨天我们又吃咖哩鱼头。上次答应二姑跟她分享咖哩鱼头的做法，这回特地拍了一些料理过程，供参考。

This is a typical Japanese meal. My wife went to a Japanese cooking class…after hours of hard work…this is the results:

Japanese are very particular in food presentation. They like layers…not only in dressing but in food also. You can see many layers in their food.

Of course, it taste nice too.

Enjoying the food till very very full just now…

Sweet prawn + Pumpkin Cili Mushroom

Pork bone soup

Chilli Crab
(with eggs…)

Closeup of Chili Crab

Steam Salted Fish with Tau Fu
(with lemon juice…)

= Yummy!

A Malaysia cooking…taste very similar to curry…but quite different as well.

The very common sharing between the two = DELICIOUS!

Foong cook big bowl for her New Year gathering with Saijyo international women group party today (Sat – 16th Feb 2008), while the smaller bowl one is for me…

What I have for dinner tonight…

1. Fried fish

2. Tauhu

3. Chicken soup

4. Tauke

Did not take photo of 3 and 4…already too late as they are now in my stomach…

Happy Valentine!

Don’t know what it calls in English…in Chinese it is “goat hook bean”

Not something spectacular…but a healthy food.

(Vege is never my favorite… )

This is my dinner tonight…Yummy!

Side view…

Not clear enough? How about a top closeup?

Trust me…it is DELICIOUS!

(my wife said don’t post online…nanti paiseh people said she showed off…but still I think it is good to blog about something my wife did for me everyday… )

Today is the new opening of a new corner at my blog…

Foong Can Cook

Cooking is my wife’s favorite…or strength. So I thought why not create a special category so that she can share her cooking in the blog?!

Hope will benefit some…but of course…don’t get envy…because all the food you saw in this FCC are in my stomach by the time you read this…

Here’s one that I enjoy just now for my dinner…

What is it? It probably has become shit now …but let me tell you…it is delicious sweet and sour fried bone meat. There are some potato wedges in the sweat and sour sos, very delicious. We did not mix the meat with the sos, as it will kill the crispiness of the meat. When serving, dip the meat into the sos and consume it. Yummy!

I will let my wife explain more in future…now need to go do some “business”…

My wife cook this today…my favorite food! Curry Fish Head!

Not just any curry fish head…but a very delicious curry fish head!

Not so easy to cook one that is tasty and delicious…me as a curry fish head lover…I must say that the one cook by my wife is better than most restaurant and is definitely among the best curry fish head in Malaysia…or even the world!

Don’t believe me? Nevermind…I can let your eyes taste it first…

In Chinese tradition, the day before Chinese New Year is a very important reunion for family members. Today, here in Japan my wife, Megumi and I have a good reunion here in our little home. Last year I was alone in Japan…

Chinese New Year 2008 – nien 30 on 6th Feb 2008.

My wife wake up early in the morning to prepare the food – big fest – for our little family.

Here’s some of the dishes…no, don’t ask me how to prepare…maybe Lydia can add that later…

While I was busy taking photos…my wife said…not yet lah…still got one…

(the soup in the middle…5 dishes one soup!)

Not forgetting my wife’s favorite…Coca-Cola…in “romantic” glass…

Finally…before we start enjoy our food (must pray and thank to God)…family photo first…

Notice our little ShaShinKi.com very own angpow? Megumi is hungry for it!

Happy Chinese New Year to all!
