This is a variation from the Minced pork porridge with carrot and potato 红萝卜马铃薯粥 that I have posted previously. I have used pork ribs instead, and cooked the porridge with dried oysters 蠔豉 and dried scallops 江瑶柱/干贝. This is my favourite comfort food and it never fails to cheer me up when I am sick. I have since made it our regular dinner meal.
Fried bee hoon has became our weekly dinner dish. I have tried cooking with different types of ingredients and sauces since my last post Fried Bee Hoon (Rice Vermicelli) 炒米粉. If you like spicy and sour food, you will find that the bee hoon tastes pretty good with some Tom Yum flavouring. This is the Tom Yum paste that I used for cooking (see below picture). Zest up the fried Tom Yum bee hoon with some freshly squeezed lemon juice to bring the aromas and flavour to a higher level!
A simple way to cook fish is to pan-fry or bake/grill them. Just sprinkle some sea salt over it before cooking them. I have marinated the tuna fish with some teriyaki sauce for about an hour before baking it at 180 degree celcious for 20 minutes. The fish has turned a nice golden brown when done.

After my first attempt in cooking Bak Kut Teh 肉骨茶, I have started to search for different types of Bak Kut Teh seasoning mix that are available in the Asian groceries stores here. I was really glad to find this A1 BKT spices in "Miracle" Asian grocery store at World Square and even more thrilled to find that it's only selling for A$1.30! So far that's the only grocery shop I have found selling this BKT spices. My mum has always sworn by the A1 spices and it costs nearly RM4 a packet back home. There are 2 sachets of spices in a packet and I just thrown in both packets with 400g of pork ribs, some dried shitakke mushrooms and 2 bulbs of garlic, first boil then simmer the soup for at least an hour. Serve with steam rice.
