The Yaps had an early Chap Goh Meh dinner on Sunday. The host (hubby’s aunt) requested all the attendees to do a Covid self-test a few hours prior to the dinner.
This is my first ever Covid self-test and I had trouble getting that much saliva to fill the tube. I stood at the sink for 5-10 minutes just to collect enough saliva to reach the mark on the tube 🤪.
Our buffet spread of Hakka dishes, whipped up by the Yaps who are all great cooks.
12 dishes, including a lotus root soup.Fried glass noodles with fried prawns, steamed chicken, braised duck with ginger and assorted roast meat.Yee Sang, stir-fried mixed veggies, Chinese sausages and sauteed Ngar Koo (arrowroot) with coriander and roast pork.Fried glass noodles with fried prawns, Top Hat (Pie Tee), braised abalone with mushrooms and braised Hakka pork with wood fungus (MIL cooked this dish. It’s her specialty).Love the Siew Yoke with crackling skin. This platter was bought from our friend’s restaurant (Seng Kee Kitchen).
And this marks the end of Chinese New Year! Now it’s time to eat clean before my yearly blood screening. My appointment with my gynae is next Sunday and I am already feeling the jitters – my once a year anxiety before the screening. 🥶
