A New Dish And Then Some

Yet again, another food post! ^v^

This dish is a "family recipe" of sorts, and improvised by no other than me...! (cooked with help by Kee - better credit him, or else he'll say I never mention him!) hehe.

Feast your eyes. (notice the pun? lol)

Doesn't it look absolutely yummy-licious? *licks lips*

The mee is specially brought from penang, coz I've some distant family that makes this wantan mee. Therefore, it can be considered as A-grade stuff~! Yummy!

The wantan mee is boiled and seived as normally done. What is different is that my family makes the sauce from a mixture of sesame oil + pepper + soya sauce for that delicious unique taste!! (Latter two are also good stuff, especially the soya sauce which is made by the same distant family!)

Hey, careful! Don't drool over that keyboard~! :P I feel hungry just looking at it...

What I have improvised is that I've added sausages slices fried with some pepper seasoning. I've also added some fried nuts (which is used for other dishes normally) to give it a different texture... crunchy! And last but not least, the nuggets were specially dipped in lots of egg before frying.

Conclusion is that it was really tasty... I love it! *heart*

It doesn't really have a name. Maybe I shld name it Zizi's Wantan Mee, huh? lol.

------------------------------------------------------------

Speaking of naming food, that reminds of smtg farny that happened during dinner a few days ago.

We're talking abt the rumours that one/both of our canteen operators were maybe leaving for greener pastures. Which might leave us rather deprived of food... scary!

Anyway, then we're joking that if we opened a fastfood restaurant ourselves (actually might earn more money too!)... what would we name the restaurant and food there.

Numerous names were given. Even McBear Happy Meal sets that come with cute teddy bears were planned to be given out. :P [inside joke!]

But nothing more farny than this.

KG Burger - Eat this and put on the Kgs!

*Complete with smooth suave advert voice and all*

(KG = Kao Gai = Beh's fav phrase = very what the heck! in hokkien)

If you don't get the joke, don't worry... it's more like an inside joke. Just tot it was worth putting up since it was really funny! :D

Anyway, at least do appreciate the pun inside the motto. Because I was the witty-pants that came up with it. hehe. [I wonder who would want to eat this burger, probably only those that are underweight? lol.]

I lurve fooood....

I edit dozens of photographs daily - so that was just practice. took me less than a minute anyway.

just go to Image > Adjustments

There, using colour balance, you can fix the amount of each type of colours. There are also Levels, Contrast/Brightness and Hue/Saturation. Play with them a bit. It's really quite simple.
