On Sunday, Mamarazzi went to Pasar Malam (Night Market) and found some lotus roots. Did you know that there are two types of lotus roots?
The bigger ones like the one on the top taste better for making soup while the smaller ones below it is for stir-frying?
On Monday while I went to school, she made lotus soup for me coz I like to eat rice with lotus soup. Boiled for at least two hours.
Then just before I come back from school she stir-fried the smaller lotus roots with carrots, mushroom and some meat.
When I came back from school I was very excited.
The Principal gave us a box of Fullmoon goodies each. Yes, my Principal had just gave birth last month. There were two red eggs, two Angku and pickled ginger in the packet.
Immediately after coming home, I wanted to eat that. Don't wanna eat rice.
This is not the first time this happen. Lately, I have been very naughty. Before meal time, I would go and raid the fridge or the biscuit containers. Mamarazzi said going to makan soon and yet I go and eat chocolate or stuffs like that. When meal time comes, I would say am not hungry or pretend that am sleepy wanna sleep.
When she ask me to go to sleep, I would become "active" again and when hungry ask Mamarazzi to cook noodles.
Each time when comes to meal time, I would give excuses. Sometimes takes more than an hour to finish my meal.
Hmm...Mamazzi said buat penat Mamarazzi cook soup and nice nice dishes. Next time she don't wanna cook anymore .
If am hungry she will just sumbat me eat kaya and bread only. If hungry some more, she ask me to go and cook for myself.

ReplyDeleteSK
Deleteduno learn from who
you know what?? Lina will sure tell you something when she reads this.. don't want to eat the things i cook?? okay, then you will be eating bread with kaya for the rest of your life!! padan muka~~ :D
ReplyDeleteWahaha.... I pulak. :-D
DeleteI said that for my son's bekal only tau.
I say that to my kids, always..... muahahaha!
DeleteDon't appreciate my effort for spending hours in the kitchen, padan muka with the bread and kaya!
LOL...ya la...
Deletehehehehe, got two types of lotus roots one ah?? i thought all the same lah.. they are from the same root but different parts?? or from different species??
ReplyDeleteThe big ones are from China, the small ones are local.
DeleteThat's what I learned from the vegetables vendor, hehehe.
SK- Got diffrence la. See Yvonne explainations
DeleteYvonne- ya lor...local ones are thinner ones while the China one is thicker.
i don't care lah, i just like lotus root lor.. lotus root soup with peanuts is my favorite soup, and i also like the lotus roots stir fried, very crunchy and very nice one..
ReplyDeleteI'm not a lotus root fan. But my hubb and my children are. So no choice but to cook and feed them~
DeleteI find lotus root quite bland. Got taste ka?
SK-ya or...usually it's lotus soup but stir fry also nice. Crunchy and sweet
DeleteYvonne, git taste la the lotus root. sweet punya mah when you mix with other vege. If you want taste sweeter, you add the Tim Tao(sweet peas)
if mamarazzi put in celery to stir fry with the lotus roots, lagi nice lah, i love that so much.. and also some people put nuts (cashew, pine, macadamia etc) inside to enhance the flavor..
ReplyDeleteSK
Deletepun boleh. But the big taugeh doesnt like celery so like Yvonne cannot put lo :(
if don't want to eat rice okay lah.. at least drink the soup and also eat the dishes mah.. like Uncle SK, also don't eat rice at home one, just soup and the dishes.. hehehehe~~ :D
ReplyDeletecannot follow uncle sk and not eat rice wit. Later itu anak living become slimmer. Eat more, Kasi chubbier. :-P
Deletedrink soup??? mana ada drink...wanna eat angku...after that dare to ask to open the biscuit dip with choc one. Mamarazzi did not open for him he go and ask duno who and opened for him to makan. Got rice tak mau makan. Buat penat.
Deleteof course small kucing cannot do that everyday lah, must eat rice only will grow up.. but when naughty don't want to eat, then maybe cut down the rice lor, better than eating bread with kaya right?? :D
ReplyDeleteSK
Deletecut off his food supplies baru tau...let him starve one day see if he will eat or not
I usually boil lotus root as soup. Hardly stir-fry them as my kids don't like to eat them. They only like the soup.
ReplyDeleteWenn
DeleteOoo i see. THis is the first time i fry like this. usually make soup .
Aiyo! If naughty...just go hungry without anything...tap water only! I think kaya and bread is a nice treat... and to have the freedom and fun experience in the kitchen is even better... LOL

Your stirfry lotus root dish looks yummy! I like to eat lotus root boiled in soup and also stirfried. I think better hide away the snacks so that small kucing will eat the delicious dishes cooked by Mama Kucing inside of the snacks.
