Good job…

The other day, my sister sent these…

…to my house. She did not say so specifically but she said that she bought them through a friend who got them from her friend. That sounded like they were homemade and if that was the case, I must say that I was really impressed.

The packaging…

…sure looked like they were commercially produced, something from a factory somewhere. Whatever there was that was printed on the packaging was in Mandarin and because of the colour, it was barely visible, not that I would be able to read it, anyway, had it been very clear – it was Greek to me!.

The skin…

…was very well-made, something like those of the factory-made mooncakes sold wrapped in paper in cylindrical tubes, very thin and inside, there was some kind of paste – I’m not too sure if it was mung bean but whatever it was, it was overshadowed by the meat floss…

…that made up most of the filling. There certainly was a whole lot of that.

Well, as they say, the test of the pudding is in the eating and I would say that if you love meat floss, you will love this as that is about all that you can taste, not much else. I am o.k. with meat floss so I quite enjoyed it, just that it was RM24.00 for 15, RM1.60 each and I wouldn’t say that was cheap as it was actually quite small.

Moving on from these mini-peahs, the other day, I cooked some fried rice. It had been a while since the last time I did that. My girl is not crazy about my kampung-style fried rice and lately, I noticed that when the mum ate it, for reasons unknown, she would leave all the ikan bilis by the side. That was why I tried frying it differently that day with crispy-fried bacon and thinly-sliced sausage, egg and tomato…

…and it turned out really great. The next time there is any leftover rice in the fridge, I would fry it again this same way and blog about it, step by step.
