WED, 17-11-10 : SELAMAT HARI RAYA HAJI

Its a public holiday here in Singapore ... but we're stuck at home (my poor Hubby has to work). But fear not! Later in the afternoon, we're going to my mum's place for some yummy food (as usual!). We don't really celebrate Hari Raya Haji (on a large scale) but my mum will still cook some delicious goodies for the whole family to eat.

Well, isn't food ... love? Haha ... it is, in my family!

I love these kind of holidays  : )

Well, talking about food ... here's a picture of my mum's delicious chicken curry. Its damn delicious! I usually have it with bread or a french loaf but Hubby prefers to have it with white rice. As my mum tends to cook up huge pots of deliciousness, me & my elder brother's family (my parents live with my younger sis) always have leftovers to bring home. Lucky us!!!

 Do all kids love their Mum's cooking? This grown up kid does!

The photo does not do this Chicken Curry justice. Its soooo delicious!

We had the Chicken Curry with instant (frozen stash) prata. Ryan too had prata but his was with fried with an egg (the curry was way too spicy for my boy).


As Malay food (always) tastes better the next day, leftovers are definitely welcome (with open arms) in our home. Malay cuisine is also notoriously difficult to make cook as its ingredients list is long & "quite scary" ... plus there's usually a ton of chopping, blending & stewing (for long hours). Not the kind of thing I'm remotely interested in (yep, lazy me!)

Besides, why bother to even attempt to cook the food ... when I can taste world-class food, that my Mum cooks? I'm a foodie but I'm not crazy ... haha!

Ok, I will try to get some nice pics of the spread my Mum cooked today. Yep, tomorrow will be another food entry.

You hungry yet??? I am!!!
