Chinese – Page 3 – The Occasional Cook

I bought two silken tofus and one night, I steamed both of them in my trusty plastic microwavable steamer. When the tofus were done, I mixed a tablespoon of oyster sauce and a tablespoon of soya sauce. I poured the sauce over the beancurds and then topped them with minced chicken that I had earlier sauteed with just garlic, salt and a bit of soya sauce. Then, I sprinkled loads of spring onions and slices of fresh red chillies. It made a lovely supper. When The Hubby came back, I forced him to eat my lovely meal but then, I had forgotten that he doesn’t eat onions. So, I had to scrape off all the scallions and happily devoured them together with my tofu. Now, this is what I call a healthy choice meal. 🙂

I made this fried rice and served it together with my steamboat to celebrate my daughter’s birthday. It’s my own recipe after trying a ginger fried rice at Johnny’s, a steamboat joint Last Aunt brought The Hubby and I when we visited them in KL some six years ago. It was rather bland as again, I didn’t add enough salt. I tasted though, but to me it tasted fine but of course, it wasn’t to the guests. But they didn’t mind because I also served an assortment of chilli sauces that day. I really have a problem with salt.
