Used to be mine…

In the past, everytime we had popiah (spring rolls) at home, I would be the one doing all the work to prepare all the ingredients and cook them for the filling and also everything else. My missus did do it once but I would not say her version of it swept me off my feet.

Well, we had a popiah dinner once again that day for the Dongzhi or Winter Solstice Festival and yes, she said she would like to give it a go once again. Come dinner time, everything was ready so we sat down to roll our own popiah to enjoy.

Firstly, I lined my popiah skin with lettuce…

…before I added some of the omelette that my missus fried and cut into strips…

…followed by my missus’ own-made chili and garlic blend…

…after which, I added the cooked filling…

…before adding some more of the chili…

…for that extra kick.

Last but not least, I sprinkled some kacang tumbuk (crushed peanut) all over the filling…

…bef9re rolling it up like this…

…and eating it. Yes, it…

…was very very nice!!! It tasted different from her previous attempt – whatever she did differently this time around sure did the trick! It did not taste quite like what I would usually come out with – perhaps, she followed some different recipe but I would admit it was good.

We just had popiah not too long ago and seeing how she can do it very well now, I sure would not mind letting go and leaving it to her to do it her way. LOL!!!
