What's Cooking Mom?

When my mother heard that Aaron had come home, she went for a marketing spree on Friday and bought back a lot of "goodies" to cook for dinner! 

Well, I didn't want to spoil her fun cooking a Big Meal once awhile though I reminded her again and again, not to cook so many dishes... only a few of us but the way she cooks, the food looks good enough for ten people! :) 

Indeed Aaron was the happiest of us all when he saw the abundant food on the table... homecook food for him is really scarce... once our kids are out from home, a simple homecooked meal is a luxury for them...

So what did my mom cook??? 
this dish is a favourite of many.... 
my mom's signature dish... LOL...
Broccoli with crab meat...
Blanched bean sprouts... very fresh and crunchy!
Steamed pork ribs!
my mom steamed three of these fish... 
How to finish!!
Turnip soup...
while waiting for the fish to be ready....
Five dishes plus the steamed fish and soup...
What a glorious meal, I say!

  3. I especially like the first two dishes. I am in awe of your mom!!!! To be able to cook so many things at once...I cannot cook more than one thing at a time or I burn up pots. We burned up three in the last few months. So it is too expensive for me to cook more than one thing at a time.
