Fragrant Golden Fried Pearl White Rice (Meatless Recipe)

I have wanted to cook golden fried rice for the past few days but if I am to use brown rice for this, the outcome may not be that great.  You see, we have been consuming brown rice for more than 15 years and occasionally I would buy white rice if there's any recipe that need it or give better result if used white rice. Then, I remember I still have a packet of Sekinchan pearl white rice and decided to use it.  The rice is pearl white and I know if I would to fry it with egg yolks, the colour would be great.


This rice is very yummy if used it to cook porridge :)
Look at the rice; oblong shape and glossy white
This golden fried rice is adapted from Y3K Recipe 73 pg 24

This is a very simple, quick and yummy fried rice.  It's my first time trying out this golden fried rice and we love it.  We had it with simple stir fried bok choy and chicken soup.  A very simple but satisfying meal :)
Ingredients :
- 4 bowls of cold cooked rice
- 2 hard boiled salted duck egg yolks (I used homemade salted duck eggs)
- 4 egg yolks
- cooking oil (I used ghee oil)
Seasonings : (to taste) I omitted the seasonings as my homemade salted duck eggs is already quite salty
- pepper
- salt


Method :
1)  Mashed the salted duck egg yolks.
2)  Add egg yolks to the  cold rice.

3)  Mix well the egg yolks with the rice.
4)  Heat oil in a wok and add mixed egg yolk rice.  Stir fry and mix well until aromatic.

5)  Add mashed salted duck egg yolk.  Stir and mix well until aromatic.
6)  Add seasonings if necessary and serve.
Here's a bowl of aromatic Golden Fried Rice on me :)
Isn't this golden yellow rice look great?
You can do it too.  It's easy peasy and fuss free~

Stir Fried Bread with Eggs (Meatless Recipe)

What do you do with the leftover bread?  Are you bored of eating the usual bread with just butter and jam? Have you been always scratching your head what to have for breakfast?  Or something simple and healthy for your kids to bring to school? Or may be just a simple lunch for yourself?  Or supper?

Well, I should thank Sri of Love2cook Malaysia for this simple and yet very yummylicious dish.  It does sound a bit weird but when comes to the taste, it's not weird at all.  In fact, I am so happy that finally I managed to cook this dish.  Just had this for lunch (have yet to do the washing and luckily my girls are doing the washing for me NOW) and just couldn't wait any longer to share this to all my dear readers as I know you all will be glad to see this recipe.  It's so simple and you can have it anytime you like.  The main ingredients are the eggs and bread.  Be creative with the additional ingredients or just add any of your preference ingredients.  Once again thanks to Sri of Love2cook Malaysia for the idea of stir frying bread.  I added whatever is available and phew.... yummy yummy...
Ingredients :
- 6 eggs (beaten with a dash of salt and pepper)
- 6 slices of plain bread (cut into small pieces)
- 5 fresh Swiss button mushrooms (sliced)
- 1 tomato (cut)
- 1 big onion (sliced)
- 6 stalks of Chinese chives/kuchai (cut)
- some Thai basil
- enough oil or butter (I used Ghee as I still have it from my previous Bubur Lambuk)

Seasonings : (to taste)
- salt and pepper (mix with the beaten egg)
- soy sauce
Method :
1)  Heat oil or butter in wok.  
2)  Add all the ingredients except bread, beaten egg and basil.  Stir fry until fragrant.

3)  Push the mixed ingredients to the side of the wok.  Add the beaten egg.
4)  When the egg is thickened (not set), mix the ingredients with the egg and scramble  them together over low heat.

5)  Then, add pieces of bread and basil.  Stir fry until fragrant.
6)  Turn off the heat.  Add a dash of soy sauce.  Stir and mix well.
7)  Dish out and serve.
Serve it with your favourite chili or tomato sauce
Isn't it easy and yummy?  Try this for your kids.

Mixed Vegetables with Fried Duck Eggs Soup

I grew up eating this Mixed Vegetables with Fried Duck Eggs Soup.  I still remember whenever mum cooked this soup, she would make sure to cook extra fried duck eggs. Know why?  There are 8 children in my family and if mum didn't cook enough deep fried eggs, we would be fighting for the eggs!!  Imagine, most of us could eat 2 or more of these fried duck eggs.  We just loved it.  Even now I have a family of my own, my children also love these eggs, and ME too.  Hubby so so only :)  Those days, we enjoyed cracking and shelling the hard boiled eggs and most of the time, mum cooked about 20 eggs or more at a time!! 

It has been quite some time I didn't cook this traditional soup until I saw the recipe in Yum Yum (52) pg 27 and this reminds me to cook for my family again.  
In my family, this traditional dish is usually cooked during any Chinese festivals.  As far as I know,  the Foo Chows of Sitiawan and Ayer Tawar, Perak cook this whenever there is a family member leaving home for studies or to start a new job.  It symbolizes smooth sailing in whatever they do and  all's well that ends well. Well, is there any one who can give me a better or accurate understanding of this traditional dish?  I may be wrong too.

Ingredients : (My version in red)
- 4 hard boiled duck eggs (shelled)
- 1/2 cup black fungus (soaked and cut into small pieces)
- 1/2 cup white fungus ( soaked and cut into small pieces)
- 2 dried mushrooms (soaked and shredded)
- 1/2 carrot (shredded)
- 1 bowl  cabbage (shredded)
- 1 bowl long cabbage (shredded)
- 1/2 tbsp tung choy (preserved vegetable)
- 2 thumbsized ginger (crushed)
- 3 cloves garlic (chopped)
- enough water for the soup (I used anchovies/ikan bilis stock)
- oil for frying
Seasonings :
- salt
- sugar
- pepper
-sesame oil
Method :
1)  Heat up enough oil.  Fry duck eggs until golden brown.  Dish up and set aside.

2)  Leave some oil in the wok.  Saute chopped garlic, ginger and tung choy until fragrant.  
3)  Add all the remaining ingredients except the cabbages and the fried eggs.  Stir until fragrant.
4)  Then, add the 2 types of cabbages.  Stir fry and mix well.

5)  Add ikan bilis stock/enough water depending on your preferences.  If you like soup, you can add more water.
6)  Bring to boil and lower the heat.  Simmer until the vegetables is cooked (about 10 to 15 minutes).
7)  Add in seasonings and add the fried eggs. Cover and let it simmer for a further 5 minutes.
8)  Dish out and serve.

Has anyone tried this soup before?
With this traditional dish, I wish everyone a smooth sailing in whatever you do!
