Title: Back from the Chinese supermarket.
Post by: Kleftiwallah on January 13, 2023, 18:43

Good evening everyone, hasn't it been a lovely day?  Just steeling (cannot seem to spell braising) ourselves for more rain.  Anyroadup...

Came back from the Chinese supermarket after an annual visit,  this time we managed to evade 'the red mist' and kept our purchases down to 'normal' what was on the list.  We forgot the Nasi Goering paste (not on the list).

We love Udon noodles and I thought I'll Gurgle where the name comes from.  Why oh why... can't Gargle give a straight answer to a straight question? :mad:

Cheers,  Tony.

Wish I’d known you were going you could have got me some Tom Yum paste, I’ve been craving it.
By the way I think you needed to brace yourself  ;)

We did break the shopping trip midway through with a lunch upstairs.  The Memsahib isn't keen on dim sum, but overall a nice meal. 

Cheers,  Tony.

Did you remember to pick up some Belacan?

Is this the sauce derived from the entrails of the pelican Daniel?

Cheers,  Tony.
