it's over
Ho yesterday was World Aid's day. Hahaha you know that actor acting as bufan on the bufan de ai right? Now i remember him as bufan, i can't remember his name at all. hohoho. aids guy. Anyway, now it's that little nonya right? farnie, now they're having everything nonya. from nonya food to a nonya sequel. T.T so weird. hahaha. anyway, i'm actually from prenakan roots. my mum's side is peranakan, so since i was young, i lived on traditional perenakan dishes like buakelua, which is actually this nut filled with black stuff and chicken. okay this is not my picture but i stole it cause today my family cooked tao kua instead of this. Anyway, this is actually for special occasions. Sometimes, you will get little shards of bones in the bua kelua, but my grandmother's dish doesn't have any cause she painstakingly debones the chickenn and cleans out the buakelua so it's all ready for hassle free eating. Oh, btw, it's not a local nut, it's actually an indonesian nut. But you still can find it in singapore. Another dish we commonly eat is the ta-yubak i'm not sure whether it's the correct spelling but that's how it's said. It's actually babi something. as you know, "babi is actually pork in malay lah. There are two versions, one is a spicy one and the other one is the non spicy one. The spicy one looks a little like curry, but the non spicy one is black, both dishes have boiled eggs. I can't find the picture but if my maid cooks it i'll show it to you. Then they have the green curry, which has it's origins from thai of course. It's called kromak, or something. It's kinda spicy, but perenakan's love spice i think. well, at least my family does. anyway, dessert time, you know those stuff they sell at begawan, it's actually all perenakan. Although all the names are in malay, i'll just descibe how it looks like to you. One of them is the some jonkong or something it's very creamy and it has some kaya or green stuff on top. it can be pandan, yeah, but ppl like to use kaya cause it's cheaper. They also have some like prawn thingy with rice and dyed blue. that one is super nice but it's very very oily. my father's brother's wife my aunt) can make good ones. hahha too bad i only go to her house like once a year. My grandmother can make the rice with kaya one but she uses her homegrown pandan instead. hahaah. and you know the cake something like the one for praying, yah, that one is really nice although it's not exactly like the praying one. this one has lemon, and sprite! weird right? yeah. my grandmother adds gassy drinks like sprite and coke. I wonder what they used when they didn't have all these carbonated drinks in the past? T.T |
