Hakka Lui Cha

Hi folks!

Hands-up if you are a big fan of this special dish called Hakka luicha :)

I loved this dish and wil always ordered one at the restaurant whenever I see them on the menu. However, not all taste as good..some have rather charcoal black toasts groundnuts but some fares really well! The best loicha I ever ate stil belongs to a Pandan Jaya Vegetarian Restaurant called Xu Lai Xiang made by an elderly auntie whom I fondly known as Cai Jie..it's been a long time since I had it. Having witness the effort and the tedious process of making this yummy dish, which really makes your mouth muscle works really hard, I only have salutes and no complaints whenever I ordered one..

Even though my mil is Hakka though, she is not particularly fond or know how to make this dish despite she is a great cook allrite! I do wish to learn how to make this yummy and healthy dish wih lotsa mints, basil, and greens..yummy...

Lunch Pack of the day: Mushroom steak, mash potatoes and asparagus

Hi folks!

Last Sunday, I attended a nutrition and health talk entitled "The Sustainable Diet for the Spiritual Era".

During the workshop, information on how a plant-based or meat-free or karma-free diet does for humanity in various aspects:

  • Health and Nutrition
  • Economics
  • Ethics
  • Religion
  • Karma

We were also being informed the right way to eat a balanced diet consisting of food from 5 colours with each of them representing Fire, Wood, Metal, Earth and Water elements or the different organs in our body.


After the workshop we have a cooking demo and food-tasting session.

All these foodie stuff has inspire me to prepare a healthier and more yummy-looking lunch pack for DH and me.

So here's one created with 5 colours in mind :D consisting of:
  • Green: Asparagus, basil leaves (mixed with cherry tomatoes), cucumber
  • Yellow: Mash Potatoes
  • Black: Mushroom steak
  • Orange: Carrot
  • Red:  Tomatoes
Cheers!
