Chef in the making

It was the last weekend before Da-yi and Uncle Terry were to leave for Japan. Just another 4 days more before we have to say bye bye! Mommy has always been planning to cook for the family.. and so we did just that this Sunday! Making sure da-yi and Uncle Terry had a chance to experience mommy's superb cooking skills before leaving.. haha!

What was on the menu? Crayfish Laksa!!! A local dish that I'm sure Da-yi and Uncle Terry would miss when in Japan.

Mommy was really excited about this lunch cos its the first time mommy is cooking a meal for the family! And the very first time mommy is cooking a meal for more than 3 people (ie, daddy, mommy & Wayne!). You see, mommy isnt very talented in cooking and most of the time, mommy is just adopting the 'trial and error' way of cooking, sometimes succeeding and sometimes failing.

But this laksa dish... its quite fool proof.. cos its actually using the Prima premix. Hehe. But STILL, it needs some skill too OKAY............... Many things could go wrong still if the skill isnt there. Eg. the noodles could be too soft.. the soup too watery.. and many more. Haha. Bottom line = mommy can cook!!!!!!

Getting the ingredients ready.. noodle and the paste
Forgot a picture of the crayfish.. but here's the prawns, egg and fishcake
The laksa noodles
And ta-da.... yummy crayfish laksa! And thats not all, mommy even prepared an appetiser! 2 kinds : asparagus wrapped with bacon & cherry tomatoes wrapped with bacon

And the verdict? YUMMY!!!! Haha.

And look who was behind all the above yummy food??
Master Chef Wayne!

Equipped with not just a sieve but also a yummy chicken drumstick in his hand!
Wayne seeing mommy wearing the apron also wanted to be part of the fun, and insisted on wearing mommy's red polka dotted apron too!



After this lunch, mommy is already thinking what else I can prepare for the family for our next meal!!
