Hor Fun 滑蛋河粉

After work i went to Sheng Siong and found the fat fat hor fun (Just like those hor fun from the 煮炒stall)

This is a dish that i always wanted to try "滑蛋河粉". It look simple but tasty. Worth a try.
I don't have much ingredient, only fish ball and chye sim. It would be nice to go with prawn, squid etc...

Ingredients
500g hor fun
1 packet of cooked fishball
5g chopped garlic (add more if you like)
4 stalks chye sim (cut and boil)
1 egg (lightly beaten)

Sauce
1 can of clear chicken broth (史云生) 399ml
3 tsp abalone sauce
2 light soya sauce
3 dash of pepper salt

Thickening Glaze (mix well)
3 tbsp corn flour
4 tbsp water

Method
  1. Heat up wok until smoky hot. Add hor fun, light soya sauce and stir fry until very hot and well mixed. Dish onto a serving plate
  2. Heat up 1 tablespoon of cooking oil and fry chopped garlic till fragrant. Add in the sauce.
  3. Before adding in the thickening glaze give it a good stir. Stir quickly to get creamy sauce.
  4. Lastly add lightly beaten egg and off fire. Pour sauce over fried hor fun and serve

Choco-lious Delights @ City Square

I was window shopping at City Square last Sat (10 Jul), managed to snap some picture about this Record Breaking Event for the longest swiss roll. After the event the swiss roll are sold S$10 and the proceed goes to charity. I didn't stay thru' the event, cos need to pick my daughter up from her class.

Something Fishy

Last Wed 7 Jul, dinner treat from our head office CAO at Greenwood Fish Bistro

I was quite skeptical about having fish for my dinner, cos I'm not a fishy person and i don't eat fish. Anyway, while walking into the dinning area, we passed by the market area... quite fishy smell though. When we reached our dinner table, no more fishy smell. Instead we got compensated back with the delicious food...

For sure, i didn't order fish.
