My Funny Dishes

When my sons were back from college, they requested for more home cooked food even though I am not good in cooking. Simple meals no doubt... some might turn up very funny looking like what is displayed...

I know my sons, Aaron will not make any critics, everything to him is okay but Andy is more readily to comment... nice or not nice, he will say something.... "weird, delicious, no taste, not nice.... " he will give me some feedback...

australian cabbage with glassnoodles..
does this dish turn you off?
Andy dare not eat.. lol...

tom yam fish... not so nice too...

steamed minced pork with egg...
over steamed so it is dried.. sigh..

  9. Hi Reanclaire, re your sons requesting for home cooked meals....whether your cooking is gourmet standard or so so....a mother uses an ingredient no restaurant chef, pasar malam makan stall, or hotel restaurant uses...

    It is called 'LOVE'. Without that 'ingredient' the food is just food.
    And there is nothing more spectacular on this planet than to see a beautiful mother named Reanaclaire in the act of cooking for her loved ones.

    Have a pleasant week and stay beautiful, Lee.

  12. I think you'd better stick to eating out...not everyone is gifted with the same things, and your talents lay elsewhere! This is not a bad thing, though. There are so many more important things than being a good cook.

    tuti: for my kids only.. for guests, that will be 1st and last time they will come.. hahahaa..

  20. any home cooked meal is good but the cabbage, a tad weird tho. I think purple cabbage more suitable for salad. I always stick to white for stir fry.
