De-Froze Queen

this is sean's plate with rice and meat, carrots and vegetables!

this was what's left in the plate of the dish after sean poured almost half of it onto his plate
sean picked me up at the club after i had a meal with my bowling teammates. we then head home and he said he hadn't had lunch yet (it was close to being 6pm by then) so i said to go grab some food before heading back but he just drove straight home. so on our way to my parents place, i said that i'll cook! since my whole entire family will be at the club, leaving no food at home. and he was keen on it. HAHA. so VOILA!
defrozed, prepared and cooked in an hour!
no idea what this dish is called too. but it's stir fried pork marinated in oyster sauce with water and cornstarch, NO OIL USED IN THE PROCESS OF COOKING! colourfied with carrots and green vegetables that were boiled till soft. HEALTHY HEALTHY DISH!
in the process of peeling the carrot, the action-belek me decided to make a flower out of the carrot - my maid had shown me how to do it! - end up, when i was carving out the first petal, the carrot slipped and i cut my finger instead! haha. but it's ok la. not a lot of blood, just lost a tiny piece of flesh. quite a clean cut i must say. haha.
and guess what? at first, it was too salty (according to my hubs) so i added more water, and then! it tasted just nice! wahaha! so cool ar.
mum came back and tried the dish, and she said the taste is good only thing is.. the meat was cubed instead of the usual sliced. but later on, after she had a few more, she said that cubed meat tasted not that bad cos the taste last longer and you can feel that the meat is actually in your mouth, being chewed into tiny bits!
so.. YAY!
i'm the queen of rojak-ness cooking!
and yes, i realised i'm only good with meat, carrots and a vegetables. and yes, my darling oyster sauce. WAHAHA. but what can i say???
ONE DISH AT A TIME!!
