nasi padang dishes

didn’t take nasi padang for a while, quite enjoyed the dishes. 🙂

beef rendang 

beef rendang is always good. 🙂

red chicken curry

i loved both the red and chicken curry.

reminded me of our favourite nasi padang at zion road. for a long while when children were young, we went there often and also tapao food for home parties, took a lot of gravy and next day threw in chicken to cook with the extra gravy. lol!

those were the days my friend!

(actually by comparison the 2 curries here nowhere near the previous zion road ones, which were very tasty & intense, very flavourful)!

brogedil

brogedil also good.

sambal fish

and the fried ikan tengiri – batang fish my favourite too…

sayur lodeh

sayur lodeh so so…

tofu & long beans

bean curd and long beans good!

chendol

we had a really lovely dinner and of course rounded up with chendol.

gula melaka very sweet, maybe the coconut milk not thick enough. anywhere good enough.

after that we adjourned to starbucks downstairs, seeped coffee and chilled.

at first we had 9pax, then i asked CCG to call M, since his office just here, and he was celebrating lohei and CNY with his cell group of 4 charlie’s angels including my mei mei. so CCG galantly invited them as well. they were “shy” to take dinner so all had a chendol as well.

braised wine chicken with veg

made braised wine chicken with vegetables for teban gardens community breakfast this morning on 22.2.2019.^^

this my 83rd friday breakfast community meal dish at teban gardens community service centre.

i first started doing a community meal dish for teban gardens CSC on 8.1.2016.

the centre was started in 2002 after much effort & challenge by our RI friend who is a pastor of pasir panjang hill brethren church (pphbc) which owns & runs the CSC.

chicken with veg

this an easy dish.

i cut the 2kg LARS boneless chicken thighs while 1/2 defrost (very easy), cleaned with salt and drained in fridge, then marinated with my own wine chicken recipe = 2 tbsp fish sauce, 4 tbsp huatiao wine, 2 tbsp oyster sauce, 2tbsp corn flour.

cut carrots, onions and potatoes and kept in selaed container overnight in fridge.

fried thoroughly, turned down to medium fir & covered to cook for 5mins (add little water if necessary).

then fried vegetables – carrots and onions first, added oyster sauce then cut potatoes cooked about 9mins. added the gravy from the chicken.

my brother was joining me today to go deliver the breakfast dish to teban gardens.

i dished out a small portion for my brother to try. he loved it! said very delicious!

i think wine chicken is the best chicken dish, the chicken very tender and tasty, and the vegetables and sauces are simply  awesome.
