14th February

For Valentine's Day this year, I decided to surprise H with a home-cooked meal! It was my virgin attempt and am I glad to say it turned out a success?! The meal wasn't only edible, it actually tasted GOOD! All thanks to Google and watching my parents/grandmothers when they cooked and picked up a tip or two hehehe. Cooking must be in my Cantonese blood, I've found my natural talent (hahahaha). I'm absolutely proud of myself! :)

By the time I finally dragged myself out to buy groceries, it was already late noon and wet markets would've closed so I went to Cold Storage. Didn't know what kinda fish is good for steaming and the fish seller recommended the most expensive catch of the day... The red snapper. No regrets, the meat was really fresh and smooth!

It was my first time touching a raw fish...and it was kinda gross. So soft and scaly and wet...eeeeww
Need to wear gloves the next time I touch raw meat.

My favourite kailan with garlic and oyster sauce, cooked to perfection, just the way I like it! Crunchy!

Chicken meat and potatoes
Chicken was marinated with salt, pepper, light soya sauce and sesame oil

2 eggs, 1 century egg and 1 salted egg
Add 6 1/2 eggshells of water, steam.
Add light soya sauce, sesame oil when done.

Steamed red snapper
The fish seller must have knew I was a noob at cooking he washed and dug out the innards for me.
All I had to do was garnish it with ginger and chilli inside and on the fish, add some light soya sauce and I was done! Steam for exactly 10minutes and it was absolutely yummy! Healthy too!

And I bought durian puffs from Emicakes for desserts.

I will definitely cook again after realising how easy it actually is to whip up a meal!
Much healthier to eat at home too :)

It lasted all of 5 seconds haha.
