Kiddy Custard-like Steam Egg

I have a picky eater at home, she probably will tell you she is not hungry or she wants only a glass of milk. So as a mother, of course I wish to provide her a more nutritious meal. Since she loves milk & egg, I came up with this easy and high protein meal. Busy mummy out there could just spare 15 minutes and a hearty meal is ready.

One "Kampung" egg. Kampung egg means free range egg. Old folks believe
it contains more nutrition.
Lightly beats the egg.

I add in formula milk of my child, approximately 2 scoops, beats to mix well.

Add 1-2 drops of soya, just to taste.
Sieve the egg mixture, to prevent foams on top for a smoother surface.
Start steaming in High heat for 5 minutes.
Voila!
Ready to be served!
My daughter loves this Custard-like Steam Egg, sometimes I would add in some chopped spinach as well ... Hope your children love it too. ;-)

Char Siu Sou (BBQ Pork Pastry)

I love BBQ sauce, specially cook with pork with little fat. Char Siu Sou is a very common and popular dimsum dish. If you are a fan just like me, I have a very simple recipe that you could do it at home. I use the BBQ pork that sell at the Chicken Rice stall. And the pastry is from the ready roll puff pastry which you could get it from most if the local supermarket. I used Brog, love the texture and taste but you could use any other brand.

Honey Mustard Dressing Salad

Sometimes when you don't feel like having meat nor pasta, salad will be the answer. I like this dressing so much and it actually goes well with any kind of green. I prefer Iceberg lettuce as it's very easy to source and it really serve the icy textured. My salad is very simple, all you need is just anything you could get from your fridge. Egg, Mustard, Sour Cream, Mayo & Honey. I skipped the vinegar, because I don't like it sour, if you are a fan of vinegar you could add in a few drops.

Button Mushroom served with Fragrant Rice

Slice mushrooms as desired shapes, I like it thin.
To clean the button mushrooms, all you need to do it just rinse them
under running tap water. Remember not to soak them in the water to
avoid soggy mushrooms. Slice them thinly.
Get the pan heated, pour in a little amount of sunflower seed oil.
Add in about a teaspoon of  minced garlic, stir it. When the garlic
turns a little yellowish add in mushrooms and stir fry for about
1-2 minutes, lastly add in 2 tablespoons of oyster sauce and stir well.
I did not add any water, as the mushroom will become soft and expel
some water.
Add in some chopped parsley.
Voila! Ready to be served with fragrant rice.

Beef Noodle in Pudu. This stall has been operating by Madam Wong for more than 20 years. She has been selling Beef Brisket, springy beef balls and mix beef parts Noodle and Yong Tau Foo at her previous stall at "Cheong Kee" Coffee shop near Pudu Pasar (next to Da Ma Cai). And she moved to this new spot about 2 years ago when Cheong Kee Coffee Shop stopped it's business. You can look for *Lucky Coffee Shop located right in front of Pudu Pasar entrance. At this new stall she has come up with some new menu but she is still keeping her Beef Brisket Noodle in great flavours!!!
