My cooking adventure

This week, I ooked the following:

• Sharks fin melon soup


• Fried cabbage (was it 500g) with fresh mushroom and dried shrimps Spaghetti with fresh mushroom and bacon


• Bittergourd soup (Rem to rub bittergourd with salt and blanch in salt water) Asparagus (whole pack), with sweet corn and fresh mushroom


• Sweet and Sour Pork - Everybody loved this! (Added crunchy cucumbers too..yummy!). 300g meat. Marinate with 2 tbsp light soy sauce, dash of pepper and 1 egg for 30min. For coating, mix equal amt of kentucky powder with corn flour. For Sauce, 6 tbsp ketchup, 3 tbsp sugar, 4 tbsp water. Other ingredients - Capsicum, 2 small tomatoes, cucumber.


• Rockmelon Sago - I saw rockmelons on offer at NTUC (<$4!) and bought 2 of them. With so many, I decided to make rockmelon sago. Added milk on own when eating.


• Mango Sago - Used 3 thai honey mangos to make this, since I had pomelo from CNY. Added 1 small cup of the Yoplait mango yogurt. Did not add any sugar, as it as sweet enough. 1 tupperware box of cubed mangoes should be sufficient. Generally, for the blended, I used those flesh around the seed, as well as those from the cubes that are near the skin. Added very little fresh milk (think juz 1 or 2 tbsp, as afraid Darren couldn't take it), just to improve the consistency a bit, and to give it a richer flavor.
