Chicken Rice @ Jalan Burma, Penang 鸡饭

Chicken Rice - The good one and big portion

I found the good chicken rice finally! Braised egg was nice too! So satisfying and so full :D Well, because I am not very fussy on which part of meat, so he gave me heaps of chicken breast meat! However, my colleague said it is too expensive and okay okay only?



Okay how I measure chicken rice? At first, because ever since I came back, I had never tasted any good one. So this one so far has reached my standard. My measurement is quantity and quality. For quantity, many chicken rice I have eaten at others place were so little in chicken meat. I am not a carnivores but isn't it a chicken rice?! Quality means flavour and freshness which is quite subjective especially for flavour. Rice itself is also a flavour kicking for chicken rice. They actually gave plenty of rice, yet the boys next table still requested for extra serve of rice. I am not very fussy on soup or chilli paste that come with chicken rice. The soup is okay for me but the chilli paste is a bit dilute. The drinks here is so dilute too!

In Addition, they serve 'cai boi'! I love 'cai boi'. I shall order this next time.  A reminder of not to go during lunch time at 12.30 pm to 1.30 pm because it will be packed with so many people and took awhile to get your food. Sometimes they might forget your order and you need to remind them.

The shop only sells chicken rice, located at Jalan Burma, Penang which is just opposite Tanjung Medical Centre. I think they close on Tuesday.

Stir Fry Clams Recipe with Fermented Soy Beans - lala 蛤蜊炒豆酱

Lala, one of my favourite mom's home-cook food. I hardly order this when I eat out in a restaurant because I am fussy about the taste and the freshness. M om's one is the BEST in quality and definitely the freshness.   Whenever I go back to home town, Yan Kecil in Kedah; I always look for seafood to eat especially clam and crabs!  I will hunt for them when I cycled around in the fish village . Otherwise I will ask my mom whether she can get it from the fishmonger in the market .  Initially I was looking for the harder, longer shape's clams but only this small type of clam so called 'lala' was available in the market during the Hari Raya day.  It was only sold for RM3/kilo in the marke t and more than enough to feed us for lunch and dinner. Seafood is so much cheaper to eat and fresh in home town.  The flesh is really small. So you have to be patient , take the flesh out one by one. Therefore some people don't like to eat them but I enjoy it so

Cintan Mee Recipe ( Stir Fry Noodles ) 炒金旦面

Cintan Mee - The Ding Dong Mee I love Cintan Mee so much, whether it is stir-fried with tomyam or soy sauce. I 'developed' this dish from an old kopitiam in my hometown which used to be famous of Cintan Mee. The shop was owned by an old couple but they closed the shop when I was in Year 5? Oh it was long time ago! Everyone miss their cintan mee.  Thank god for gifted me such a good tongue and I made it!!! The taste is similar but the method of preparing is differ from the old couple. Also, I skip some ingredients to make it easy and simple.  My sister loves it because she misses it so much as she was away from home for so many years. I remembered when I was in primary school and she came back from oversea, she will ask me to take away for her and she wanted it dry ( less sauce compare to the wet one). I could see she enjoys this dish so much whenever I cooked. Sadly I don't have any photo of how was the noodles looked. I really miss it. So why I

Steam Okra / Lady Fingers Recipe 蒸羊角豆

Okra:Simple and Healthy The preparation is very easy to go and save you a lot of time. My family loves this simple and healthy dish. Light and not oily. I used to dislike this vegetable because of its sticky mucous-liked texture. Once you used to it, you will love okra! Okra is sold very cheap in Malaysia. It contains good source of fiber, vitamin C and folate. You can get 12 okra in a pack for only RM1. It is also easy to plant in warm tropical area. Ingredients 1 pack okra ( 10-15 okras, depends on size) 1 tbsp fried garlic 1 tbsp soy sauce Directions 1.
