Yes, we had our Reunion Dinner at dwelling final Saturday night \u2013 my missus insisted on cooking for everyone herself as an alternative of going out someplace for the very auspicious feast. We requested my in-laws \u2013 my brother-in-law, his spouse and my niece, dwelling for the event from Singapore, to hitch us and naturally, my sister as effectively, seven of us altogether. <\/p>\n

As they are saying,\u00a0Nian Nian You Yu<\/em>\u00a0(\u5e74\u5e74\u6709\u9b5a) or abundance yr after yr, so we had this steamed barramundi\u2026 <\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

\u2026and this candy and bitter or chio<\/em> (ikan bawal hitam<\/em>\/black pomfret)\u2026 <\/p>\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n

\u2026each served entire, like how they are saying it needs to be finished. Filleted fish don\u2019t depend, I\u2019m afraid. They additionally say that we should not end all of the fish \u2013 there needs to be some left over to be eaten over the next days. Well, we did have a few of that barramudi left however by the tip of the dinner that evening, there was nothing left of the or chio<\/em>, aside from the bones. My missus will need to have finished an excellent job with it \u2013 not even the sauce was left. <\/p>\n

She additionally made some ng\u00f3\u0358-hiang<\/em> (meat rolls) or lor bak<\/em> as it’s known as at some locations within the peninsula\u2026 <\/p>\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n

Traditionally, they symbolize wealth and prosperity in all probability due to its golden color after frying plus all that meat, with prawn or crab meat added, inside. <\/p>\n

My woman requested for this \u2013 our large freshwater prawns with pineapples cooked with kunyit<\/em> (turmeric) and the whole lot else\u2026 <\/p>\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n

Without the prawns, it’s one thing just like the very scrumptious Malay dish, the pajeri nenas<\/em>. <\/p>\n

For our vegetable dish, we had this broccoli with mushrooms\u2026 <\/p>\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n

\u2026and my missus threw within the abalone (New Moon model) that her niece introduced dwelling from Singapore and we had this very pretty refreshing fish maw soup\u2026 <\/p>\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n

\u2026with quail eggs. I did purchase some sea cucumber however she forgot to throw them in. I suppose these must wait until another day then. <\/p>\n

I purchased this super-intoxicating kacang ma<\/em> rooster\u2026 <\/p>\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n

\u2026from Payung and evidently, it was successful. Andy gave me some pomelo salad\u2026 <\/p>\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n

\u2026to which I added some Mandarins\/ponkam<\/em> and served and we additionally grilled the lamb chops\u2026 <\/p>\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n

\u2026that Anthony & Nica Plus gave me that day. Yes, they loved them very a lot however I didn’t contact it this time round as I’ve to abstain from purple meat. Everyone sang praises of the one with rosemary and garlic. <\/p>\n

My sister acquired this conventional Chinese salt-baked rooster\u2026 <\/p>\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n

\u2026from a pal and he or she introduced it alongside to share with all of us. <\/p>\n

Goodness gracious me! There certain was lots\u2026 <\/p>\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n

\u2026to go round that evening, don\u2019t you suppose? <\/p>\n

Believe it or not, we completed virtually the whole lot \u2013 there was solely a bit left so there was no want for us to battle to complete off the leftovers within the days that adopted. Hopefully, that’s the foreshadowing of what lies forward for us within the Year of the Rabbit, the whole lot in abundance, ciak pa pa<\/em> (eat to our hearts\u2019 content material), fingers crossed!<\/p>\n
