turnip rice cake
So I bought some rice flour ages ago, thought I could make glue out of it -- somehow. Of course that was a stupid idea, therefore I made cake instead. Looked up some recipes and realised I had not got any relevant ingredient except the flour, so I just made up some stuff and steamed it for ages.
It's food.

It's actually not bad. Though, of course, to be authentic you might want to check out this one: http://blog.yam.com/homeeconomics/article/13417378 --> cantonese style turnip rice cake. not to mention it's not my favourite, I prefer taiwanese style rice cake of course.

Riz sauté à l'ananas : la recette. Recettes à base d'ananas
tropical fried rice.. I used to hate cooked pineapples, they are such "sweet'n'sour" base in westernise-Cantonese cooking. Oh, but tropical cooking is different! They add such complex flavours when combined with seafood and nuts. I wish I had a gas stove to fry up my meals.

25/05 Dinner get2gether
A friend from Christchurch deserves a meal at my flat.. The menu is simple: Prawn Cocktail Salad, Sushi, Chicken Nibbles, and Fruit Salad. Just the sushi takes a bit more time, otherwise all good.
Prawn Cocktail Salad

Iceberg lettuce cut into cups;
Some prawns (fresh or frozen);
Some mango (canned or fresh);
Dressing
mayo, mustard, and tomato sauce
Mix stuff together and fit in lettuce cups, fresh herbs for deco.
Thanks Olly.
Sushi
Cooked rice mixed with vinegar, sugar, and salt to taste; Salmon (smoked or fresh); 1 fully riped avocado; Eggs mix with milk, and some sugar and salt to taste. Heat pan and fry in flat pan on low heat, stir briskly until set. Roll into some kind of thick wuteva. Cut into strips.Use a bamboo sushi roller, place seaweed sheet on top. Cover at least 2/3 of the seaweed sheet with rice, put ingredients in the centre and use whatever means to roll it up.. Cut into desired size, sprinkle roasted sesame for deco.
Chicken Nibbles

Cut off any excessive fat/skin from the nibbles, cook them in seasoned boiling water for 5 mins.
Take them out and leave cool, season well.
Grill on high until lightly burnt.
