I really am trying....

Sorry for the lack of recent posts... I've been lazy. Uploading takes too long. I haven't been cooking because no one will eat it... those sorts of things... I'll have something soon. I promise. I have Christmas photos... Not as much as you would think because Christmas is about presents. Thanksgiving was about food.

Ah Choo!

Hu Tieu: Seafood Noodle Soup with Dumplings.

The wontons in the front are shrimp and the ones in the back are pork. The red tinged meat is xa xiu and there are shrimp and napa cabbage. Underneath all that are clear noodles. I made the wonton dumplings myself. It's topped with fried red onions, scallions and cilantro. You can dress it with sate sauce and sriracha and a bit of lime. Yum!

Survey Says...

Nothing... No one was of help so I came up with this:

MaPo Tofu


Stir-fried Veggies: Enoki, Straw and Cloud Ear Mushrooms, Baby Corn, Green Beans and Carrots.


Canh Chua (hot and sour soup, viet style)


Che Ba Mau (Viet Dessert), modified with Tapioca Pearls instead of Strips

Wrap n Beans

For lunch today I had a turkey, roast beef, smoked provolone, lettuce and sun-dried tomato and artichoke heart spread wrap and four bean salad.

Damn Oven

I guess I don't know how to operate an oven. Either things are burnt or undercooked. Or, really, too much sugar can do it as well as a bad thermometer. So, the tops of my pies burnt b/c of excessive sugar in the coconut and my chicken took forever to cook. So I didn't eat it b/c I was mad. So here are pretty things.


Shrimp Bisque with Shrimp Toasts

The red ones are Rambutans and the brown ones are Longans
What they look like inside, also, inside the white flesh is a pit.
