My second chemical and pesticide-free veggie box from Farm To Home Delivery arrived! As with the first box, I’m very pleased with this one as well as the veggies are very fresh and clean. The veggies are pre-washed with Biolux ozone water. This is why I like getting my veggies from Farm To Home Delivery vs. from the market or roadside stalls. The veggies are free from soil and I can just store them in the fridge without having to clean them up first.

Leeks, plump and sweet cherry tomatoes, purple sweet potatoes, spinach, Siew Pak Choy, French beans, broccoli, ice plant, yau mak, Purslane and Choy Sum.
The two packets of green veggies with tiny leaves are Purslane, a juicy veggie chock-full of vitamins A and C and antioxidants. It’s also beneficial for heart and bone health. We used it for salad.
My favorite tuber – purple sweet potato!
We usually steam / boil the sweet potatoes. We sometimes add them into the porridge.
Did you know that purple sweet potatoes are a good source of beta-carotene but are an even richer source of anthocyanin pigments, which act as antioxidants that can help reduce inflammation and boost your immune system? Purple sweet potatoes have about three times more anthocyanins than the average blueberry.
Some of you may be anal about the leaves of your vegetables and only choose flawless ones. I get attracted to those with holes coz it tells a lot about how the veggies are grown. If worms can graze on the leaves, they’re probably also safe for human consumption 😁

With so much fresh and crisp vegetables, we’ve been grazing on them everyday, from fresh salad to seared, blanched and stir-fried.

Sesame crusted pan-seared salmon with seared Siew Pak Choy. I love how Sherilyn decorated the salmon top with cute tiny Purslane leaves and thinly sliced cherry tomatoes.
Dashi and kombu broth poured over the salmon.
Crispy skin pan-fried salmon with juicy ice plant, purslane and cherry tomatoes.
Mother’s Day salad which Sherilyn made.
A salad with all my favorite veggies — ice plant, thinly julienned Japanese cucumbers, purslane and cherry tomatoes, topped with mozzarella cheese and a piquant balsamic vinaigrette dressing.

We’ve already finished all the veggies from our second veggie box and I’m getting ready to order my 3rd box from Farm to Home Delivery for next week delivery.

Stay safe and stay at home folks. Our Health DG has made a clarion call for all and sundry to stay at home to break the chain of infection. Our country is in a dire Covid-19 state of pandemic now and if we don’t do our part by staying at home and practise vigorous SOPs, this pandemic will spiral out of control just like India. Are you not scared? I shudder to think of it. Just do all your shopping online and duduk diam-diam di rumah for the next two weeks. I’m sure we can all do it, just like how we did it in MCO 1.0 last year 💪
