seafood squidink pasta a feast to the eyes and very tasty

vongole linguine lighter in taste by comparison still quite nice taken alone..need more stock & reduced more to be more flavourful.

made 6pax zichar dinner for yong siu family on 23.7.2020. ^^

1. meen si (lime taujeon) steamed song fish head 松鱼头
2. salted egg bittergourd
3. 干炒牛河 fried beef horfun
4. 滑蛋海鲜河粉 seafood horfun with egg & gravy

first time experiment cooking hor fun & using chee cheong fun (ccf)..jessie gave the ccf but wife and i don’t really take so use it to make horfun. lol!

got to use actual hor fun ..ccf too thin i cannot brown it on cast iron or non stick wok with or w/o oil…the 2 horfun tasty but i guess not much wokhae..may try again with real horfun instead of ccf.

Preview(opens in a new tab)

my steamed fish head good standard like outside.

bittergourd still bitter despite repeated washing and soaking in water. maybe got to boil in water first. will see.

the 2 horfun were pretty tasty but not really much wokhae so cannot really c/w good horfun outside.

maybe will try again with the actual horfun from wet market.
