Spanish Omelette


This is a dish introduced by Jimmy : Spanish Omelette.

It is an omelette made with eggs and potatoes.  Supposedly a traditional dish from Spain, my version may be differ from the original Spanish tortilla.

First a potato is cut into small dice, then sauté until soft.      

An onion is cut into small pieces and added into the potato.
 

 Finally beat 2 eggs into the mixture and stir will.  

 Form it into a round shape and grill slowly.  

Turn the omelette carefully so that its not broken into pieces. 
 

 Serve hot.

Fried Rice ( KHI-Style )





James ordered today’s lunch : Fried Rice.  He wanted it ala KHI style.
( KHI is his kindy cum daycare for 3 years. )

The fried rice should ONLY contain bean, carrot, hotdog ( sausage ) and fried egg ,  James warned !

The carrot must be finely cut ( Brunoise ).  In order to get the Brunoise dice, I first peel the carrot with fruit peeler, then fine Julienne it, and follow with vertical cut into small dice.  It’s not exactly a Brunoise dice, but it’s acceptable by James. 

As for the greens, James can’t say what kind of bean.  So I use baby French bean.   Same procedure : fine cut.

The hotdog is the easiest.   Just slice it.

The egg pulak, James said the white and yellow must be separated.  So, not scrambled.  Sunny side up with cooked yolk, irregularly cut.

Well, as till now, no graphic or photo to accompany the recipe.  So use your imagination.

When everything is ready, I ask James to ignite the stove for me.   As the oil heated, I let him to pour in all the finely cut ingredients into the wok.  

Now that he feels that he played some important role in preparation of the dish, off he go to his playroom.

So, I fry.   And fry.
Add in light soy sauce for flavor and coloring.

Secretly, add in another ‘secret ingredient’ for extra flavor.

When I ask James how’s the taste.
He tasted, and tasted, and commented : “OK !”











French Toast ( style chinois )


Amidst the nationwide Movement Control Order, 
what to put on the table became a mammoth daily issue.

What for breakfast today ?

French Toast, Chinese Style…



First, cut the roti into strips.   
It is easier to dip and fry, and easier to eat too.  
Not to forget its children-friendly.

Beat 2 eggs with chopstick ( Chinese style ! )

Dip the bread strips in egg, turn to coat both sides.

Cook bread in slightly greased nonstick pan 
on medium heat until browned on both sides.

Serve with Milo.
