Nyonya Prawn Porridge

T.H.E R.A.M.B.L.I.N.G.S

WORDLESS WEDNESDAY...

I've seen this phrase quite often but I have no idea what it is all about. Does it mean, we can't write anything in out blog on Wednesdays? Or, 'only photos allowed' on Wednesdays? Can anyone kindly explain to me, please....

Anyway, I am not writing much today. Not that I am wordless or something, but because I am rushing. There are still chores to be done... endless...


T.H.E R.E.C.I.P.E

As mentioned in my previous entry, my mom is not keeping well. But now, alhamdulillah she is much better. While she is in the state of recuperating, I just prepared soft menus for her. And today, I had cooked this Nyonya Prawn Porridge, made famous by Mr Mat Gebu. Thank you Mat and Chef Florence Tan for the delicious recipe. My mom enjoyed it very much.
