Had to run an errand at Sun Plaza in the late afternoon so might as well buy back dinner. Mum is not hungry so I bought Vegetarian Rice takeaways from the food court for my sis and myself. Picked the usual dishes of mock sweet & sour pork, curry chicken & potato and assorted vegetables stir-fry for sis. Me, I chose crispy fried dumpling, mock rendang chicken and vegetables stir-fry. The staff even offered me a bowl of herbal vegetarian soup.
Mum’s pack of Economy Rice(菜饭) from Chong Pang. She only picked two dishes of sweet & sour pork and sautéed bok choy. For me, she chose the same sweet & sour pork dish with a steamed fish fillet drizzled with shallot oil over white rice.
Sister’s friend offered to buy takeaway dinner for us and these are the dishes he bought back. This Sambal Stingray is first pan-fried on a hotplate with banana leaf underneath it to give it fragrant before smothered in a spicy reddish brown paste of sambal chilli sauce. The end result is a succulent fish with a spicy kick that is oozing fragrance. And to go with it, Cincalok which is fermented small shrimps or krill mixed with chillis, shallots and lime juice.
Next up is a Bean Curd Stew with seafood and vegetables. We also gotten Sambal Sweet Potato Leaves which was tender but unfortunately lacked the spicy oomph to elevate it to the next level.
For the carbohydrate, it is Fried Rice with eggs, prawns and squids. Here is everything plated up for the final photoshoot before I gobbled it up. :D
Food-That Can Regrow Using your Kitchen Waste
Let’s face it, eating well is expensive…or it can be. Buying produce that is either organically grown (or biodynamically) is not cheap. But ingesting pesticide residue is anything but ideal.
Luckily, you can shave some money off your food bill by growing a few of those staples from your diet. Best part, it is much easier than you think! You don’t need seeds or anything fancy. You can simply use kitchen scraps from your next meal. How great is that!

SEED: The Untold Story (Official Theatrical Trailer)fromCollective Eye FilmsonVimeo.
This is a new documentary that a film school friend of mine, Taggart Siegel, made. This looks like it’s going to be amazing. I can’t wait to see it. It’s coming to theaters across the country.
I love seeds! They’re fascinating and are the most basic part of all of life. Please check it out if you can. This is a very important film because there are greedy bastage corporations, who, for the past several years have been trying to patent the entirety of seeds. They’re doing it so they can control the food supply. If you control the food supply, you control the people. Fuck that. Check out this very important and amazing looking film at a theatre near you!
Late August: the daylight hours are waning but the garden is still toodling along and I’ve been swamped with a zillion projects. It has taken me nearly the entire month, but I’ve finally compiled my August list of fun and interesting links – I hope you enjoy them! At this school in Gatineau, Quebec, a boulevard of dead ash trees were transformed into art, thanks to some very talented wood…
