Its alot for my pettite size. However, she seldom cooked nowadays and since all of us seldom eat at home.<BR/><BR/>There are a few things that I will not order from outside: Curry Chicken, Yam Rice & Bak Kut Teh. Not that i dun like to eat these dishes but my mum can cook 'em so well that i think none of the cooks can beat her. I think if i were to hv children some days in the future, they must be very miserable as i can t cook. Come to think of it, i m sooo fortunate to hv a mum who is a good cook!! =)zeezeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12782434695552435416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31475215.post-25109244388562921882007-05-06T20:53:00.000-07:002007-05-06T20:53:00.000-07:00I love putting in tiny pieces of chinese sausages ...I love putting in tiny pieces of chinese sausages too..does make a difference to the taste.Precious Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07075413462451132893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31475215.post-48523138176777598012007-05-06T19:08:00.000-07:002007-05-06T19:08:00.000-07:00yam rice is a favorite in our family, whenever my ...yam rice is a favorite in our family, whenever my mom cooks that, we gotta have our sliced fish soup to go with that, not to mention also, our spicy hot sliced fresh red chilies :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31475215.post-38122557334926799922007-05-06T18:54:00.000-07:002007-05-06T18:54:00.000-07:00i love yam/taro (what's the difference!!!), and ri...i love yam/taro (what's the difference!!!), and rice is such a comfort food. put the two together and you have heaven on a plate!<BR/><BR/>love your blog and photos!Piegirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05379195513254311752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31475215.post-22853821026324345242007-05-06T18:13:00.000-07:002007-05-06T18:13:00.000-07:00I love yam rice...my mom makes it with mustard lea...I love yam rice...my mom makes it with mustard leaves and dried shrimps, it's absolutely outta this world.
