Fresh Kampung Eggs- Half Boiled Eggs

A friend of mine just passed me this tray of Kampung Eggs( Local terms for farm eggs) in the gym yesterday! When i walked with this tray of eggs, i attracted a lot of attractions!!hahhaha...Perhaps people reckoned that I am selling eggs in the gym.

This friend of mine just being really nice, as she wanted me to try these fresh eggs by making half boiled eggs. She got these freshly from farm and it is cheaper to get directly from the farm. This tray of eggs are really fresh as i can see feathers in the tray!She keeps telling me that these eggs are nice to eat and so and so....So i just nodded and promised her i will try...So i have tried it today....
Here is the outcome. Kampung eggs are tiny. I made 2 eggs. I haven't had any Kampung eggs for the past 7 years i guess...coz...for me, i feel quite reluctant to take this as i feel like im eating a live! Just wonder how am I going to finish 30 eggs?

Half-boiled eggs is a really famous breakfast in Malaysia. You can get it at Kopitiam(Coffee shop),Mamak stall mostly. People eat it with soysauce and pepper. some people may use it as a dip for toast! In Malaysia, kaya and butter toast is really famous. When you come to Malaysia, remember to try these! A must try eating place in Malaysia for these kinda of foods is Old Town White Coffee restaurant. It's a local famous restaurant for local dishes! When my Friends from Hong Kong paid a visit, they went there to try the foods and they like it very much! place of

When I was a little kid, I used to have half boiled eggs and milo every morning before going to school. Nah, when i was a kid, I used to keep eggs under my bed and hopefully they turned into chicks! and i may have new friends! Funny right?

I would like to thanks Luna for her kindness!

How to make half boiled-eggs? Very easy!

Just boil some water which is enough to cover the whole egg.
Then off the fire and place the eggs in the boiling water for 2 minutes.
Then you can serve with some soy sauce and some pepper!
Try as a dip for your toast too!

Chee Cheong Fun, Yong TauFu and Rakuzen Sashimi Salad

All of these foods are my favourite foods. Here were a table of chee cheong fun(mixture of fishballs,fishcakes,beancurd skins, chilli yong taufu, ladies finger yong taufu and beancurd stuffed with fish paste) in sweet sauce. Besides, i blanched some spinach to eat with the sweet sauce too. Chee cheong Fun is quite a famous local foods in Malaysia!

Rakuzen Sashimi salad is another favourite! Mixture of salad leaves,tomatoes,cucumber and capsicum with salmon,scallop and crabs. The nicest element is the house dressings! However, the salad is not as good as the 1st time i had it.It costs Rm18++ for a small salad like this.Rakuzen are available @ KL Bukit Bintang, Plaza Damas and Desa Park City(Kuala Lumpur)

Assam Laksa

Today is the 1st day of f the 4th month in chinese calendar.(every 1st and 15th of every month,some chinese will have vegetarian for prayers purpose) For me, i'm having vegetarian diet for both days.I always fancy sour and spicy foods. Ever since i become an organic freak,I hardly eat the asam laksa due to health element.Luckily, there is organic asam laksa for me!!:)It is equally tasty!!!and another benefit is that organic asam laksa is vegetarian too!!!So, vegetarian diet isn't that dull after all. However i would like to introduce this famous local dishes!

Laksa (叻沙; pinyin: lèshā) is a famous Peranakan (Chinese-Malay) noodle soup from Malaysia and Singapore. The name may originate from the Sanskrit word laksha (लक्ष), meaning "many" and referring to the soup's many ingredients; the word is also the origin of the Hindi term lakh.

Laksa consists of noodles and various other condiments served in a rich spicy gravy. Usually, thick rice noodles known as laksa noodles are preferred, although thin rice vermicelli (bee hoon) can also be used, and is in fact preferred for Sarawak laksa. The exact nature of the gravy and condiments varies depending on the part of Malaysia or Singapore that the laksa originates from.

Asam Laksa is famous in Penang.The famous one is at Kek Lok Si which is situated somewhere near to a market at Kek Lok Si. Penang laksa, also known as asam laksa from the Malay for tamarind, comes from the Malaysian island of Penang.It is made with Mackerel(kan kembung) soup and its main distinguishing feature is the asam or tamarind which gives the soup a sour taste. The fish is poached and then flaked. Other ingredients that give Penang laksa its distinctive flavour include lemongrass, ginger flower, blue ginger (lengkuas) and chilli. Typical garnishes include mint, pineapple slices, thinly sliced onion and hε-ko, a thick sweet prawn ketchup.
Here is a healthy selection of junk food which is a roasted seaweeds from Korea. It is spicy flavoured.No transfat and no preservatives. It tastes nice and not greasy and no MSG too!!!! pack costs Rm8.90.It is good for kids and adults.
