Dinner - Before & After

~ Posted on Friday, August 21, 2015 at 5:57 AM ~

Last year, I wrote about a look back into my home-cooked journey so far. Then shortly before the end of 2014, I wrote a post on my preparation when cooking. Then I thought, "Why not snap a picture of before start cooking and the final results after cooking?"

So, here you go..

Left part of the picture is the ingredients all ready to be cooked on 29th  April 2015. Ingredients on top (clockwise): A bowl of chopped small red onion with dried chilli, a bowl of sliced garlic, a bowl of chopped tomatoes (deseed), chicken marinated with turmeric powder + chilli powder + sliced onions + salt pepper, a bowl of chilli powder + sugar + water, a can of red beans, 2 eggs, a bowl of minced pork marinated with sweet soy sauce and sugar, chopped long green beans (not in picture).

Macanese Minchi

Was browsing through my My Attempts in Making Yummylicious Food! album on my FB page and I saw this dish I made in December 2014.

That time, I still have a small packet of minced pork in my fridge and I bought a big pack of potatoes yesterday (reduced to clear bargain must grab LOL!). So I googled around looking for recipes that uses minced pork and potatoes.

Ta-daaaaa.... and I got Macanese Minchi!

Apparently, this dish is a traditional dish in Macau which is made with minced beef and/or minced pork, potatoes and onions.

Cool, learned something new! I get to merge our kiddos' favorite dish (minced pork in sweet soy sauce and garlic) with MY favorite dish (braised potatoes in sweet soy sauce)
