This will be another post showcasing my mother's delicious home cooking. Honestly, I can never get enough of her cooking. Over the past weekend, I've had the chance to taste some more of the good stuff when I returned back to my hometown Penang. This round, the cooking happened over at my house, which we were decorating up in preparation for the upcoming big day.

Janice was around too that day, hence the table for four, namely my parents, Janice and myself. Do check out below on what mother whipped up for lunch that afternoon. Taken with rice, the stomach is thankful for all these food.

Overall, a good meal indeed and I just can't wait to return back soon for more of the good life. How about you? Do you appreciate your mother's cooking? I'm learning to pick up some techniques to do simple dishes from her too!

ReplyDeleteSure missing ma late Mama's home cook meals, ours would be very simple and nice.
ReplyDeleteBTW do know how to use chop sticks? We were all trained using chop sticks since younger days never used fork and spoon.
ReplyDeleteHad lots of lecturing from my late Papa who was quite strict with table manners especially with chop sticks. Cannot hold them too low or too high up must be at 3/4 height. How we hold the the bowl is equally important. The bowl cannot be placed onto our palm but must be holding with the thumb on the brim and the fingers gripping the bottom of bowl.
ReplyDeleteNothing beats mother's cooking! I love my monthly journey back to hometown and am always looking forward to have some mother's cooking too! :D
ReplyDeleteBut i bet ethan wont have those cravings for MY cooking! >_<
When I switched hand using my left with chopstick in late 90s I was quite lucky he didnt tembak me but asked "howcome you are left handed meh?". I jokingly answered yeah all this while mah haha.
ReplyDeleteSince on the subject of chop sticks seen this movie "Soong Sisters" on TV Dr Sun Yat Seng insisted to use chopsticks and bowl for his meals while his wife and the rest of the family used knife and fork for their steak. My nephew does that, his wife and 4 children on fork and spoon and he uses chopsticks and bowl. The next Dr Sun in the making.
ReplyDeleteNice clear and sharp pix of all the dishes. Very ideal meal of 3 dishes + 1 soup. Your mama being observing the rule of thumb for 4 pax without any wastage. Love the double happiness plates.
