Blessings from my kitchen in Singapore. Today is the 38th day of Singapore’s Circuit Breaker Mode, 13 May 2020.
Made a Sweet Oatmeal (you can use any brand of Cooking Oats, I am using QUAKER Brand made in Taiwan which comes with added Black Rice n Mountain Yam). I added 3/4 cup Milk with 1/4 cup Water to cook 4 TBS Oatmeal and 3 TBS Sultanas.
Before serving I add 1 TBS Strawberry Jam on top. I serve it in a bowl made by my Japanese Ex Participant Mrs Kimura who used to attend my Cooking Workshop regularly. Paired with a small cup of Korean Honey Ginger Hot Drink. My sweet day to begin. What’s your breakfast?

Sprouting Mung Beans: Day 3

Sprouting Mung Beans Day 4
Happy Harvesting Morning of my Day 4 sprouting Mung Beans. I yield 2 plastic bags, each holds 2 1/2 handful of Beansprouts. Later will pluck away the tails one by one, when doing so I will count my blessings one by one and also bless my beloved Samurai together with my other family members and friends near n far.
Then wrap with newspapers and seal in a plastic bag to store in the Veggie Chiller in the fridge. Can last for maximum 1 week. On how to sprout Mung Beans please check my post above. Am happy with the result.
First I soak 100g Mung Beans in a basin of tap water for 6 hours then drain water. Transfer to a colander lined with muslin cloth and cover, wet with tap water and let water pass through colander. Then wet another cotton towel and place on top. Have a deep plate below the colander to catch dripping water. Then use a black plastic bag to prevent sunlight.
Next day remove from Black Plastic bag, throw away water from the deep dish, pass some tap water over the cloth covering the colander and let water drain through colander. Rinse the cotton towel and keep it wet to cover the colander and use black plastic to cover to prevent light. Do this twice a day.
You can harvest on either 4th or 5th day.

Dinner
Enjoying my blanched and tossed Mee Suah with cooked Spring Onions, Soya Sauce, Pepper and Sesame Oil.
Served with my boiled Beef soup with veggies using 300g Beef Fillet with 1 thumb sized Ginger in slices, 10 Cherry Tomatoes and 1 stalk Japanese Leek cut to rounds in 2,000ml Water. I used my Electric Glass Multi Cooker to boil this soup for 1 hour over medium heat. Towards the end of cooking I add Himalayan Pink Salt to taste and half cup Cooking Sake.
This combination of Dry tossed Mee Suah and Beef Soup is a very good pairing. The soup is enough to serve 2 persons with refill.

Tips in cleaning kitchen cloth
I am very particular to maintain cleanliness on my Kitchen Cloths. I boil them in an old pot with Soap Powder, Bicarbonate of Soda, Bleach and Water. Then soak overnight.
After that hand wash them one by one and leave them to dry indoor in my kitchen. Do you all do that? This is an old school way I learned from my mom’s maid during my childhood.

Lunch
Enjoying my Pickled Papaya, Pickled Japanese Cucumber (Kyuri), and a Quick Stir Fried Home Sprout Beansprouts with Spring Onion in Corned Beef and Pink Japanese Fish Cake (also known as Naruto).
Will be using this dish as filling for our Sandwiches and the the pickles as our side dishes. Simple and satisfactory! We thank GOD to fill our plates. Amen.
