This is the wife's comfort food

Firstly, a big THANK YOU for all of you who come and visit my blog often enough to help me attain 500 hits!! Thank you very much for your support. :)

My Mrs is a simple person who likes simple things in life and that goes the same for her taste for food.
Tired and stressed out from work, she said she wanted something light and comforting. Well she likes kang kong and she also likes Szechaun soup and these are what I happen to have in the fridge :)

Sambal Belachan Kang Kong

This is really a simple dish:
- cut the kang kong into smaller strips ( we had 2 clusters)
- take ready made sambal belachan in the count of 2 tablespoons into a bowl
- add half a cup of water into the bowl
- plonk in a teaspoon of honey
- a tablespoon of soy sauce or more based on your preference
- broil the kang kong in boiling water for 1 minute
- in an oiled frying pan, add a teaspoon of chopped garlic
- add the kang kong now and cover the pan for 2 minutes
- stir the mixture together and at this time, add the sambal mixture and add cut chilli padi
- cover the pan again for another minute or so and done!

Home-made Szechuan Soup

I made this with what I had also and it's quite simple:
- 500ml of water into a pan
- 8 table spoons of dark vinegar (depends on your ability for sourness....I suck....geddit? ;p)
- 1 teaspoon of Tobasco
- 1 tablespoon of light soy sauce
- 1 beaten egg
- small bits of dried shrimps (put in bowl and add boiling water and leave for 3 minutes, it'll be done)
- wasabi seaweed bits
- tablespoon of corn flour (pre-mixed with water)

What you can add to make the soup better:
= strips of salted veg
= strips of carrots
= dried scallops
= chives

To make this soup, all you need to do is to whack all of thge ingerdients into the pot. Just leave the addition of the corn flour and beaten egg to the last minute! Simple yes?! :)

Into the mouth went down the soup and also the kang kong.... took me about 1 hour to make all but 1 minutes to finish all..... wow.... she is a whale shark in a body of an ikan bilis (asian anchovy). But yet she still looks like a chopstick! Damn.... I'm still on my diet!!
