Dinner at Home on Sunday

It was a sunday morning when we woke up and decided to stay home the whole day. With this,it was time to put my cooking skills to the test again. I was like a little mouse digging through my little fridge and found some ingredients which was sufficient to put up 2 meals,lunch and dinner. Lunch was simple, pan fry baby potaoes with cheese and a baked fish with lemon and seasoning. It took about 80 minutes to properly cook the fish, and when i checked it out, it turned out peefectly. The taste of it was nice, the lemon worked its way and covered the 'fishy' smell while the seasoning brought out the freshest taste of the fish with its juicy flesh flaking up easily with just a scrape of our forks. The pan fry potatoes were delicious, with the sprinkles of some chilli flakes, it sends a slight tingling of spiciness to our toungues. Prepared an asian dinner in 60 minutes. We had sweet and spicy crabs and stir fry okra in spicy prawn paste (a.k.a lady's finger to malaysians). The crabs was delicious. It's my first time cooking crabs and i can say i'm quite satisfied with the output. The taste was all just nice, sweet, salty, spicy all just right, nothing too much and nothing too little. We enjoyed our dinner, and we got our fingers dirty without others looking on. Normally if we have crabs in restaurants, we will try our best to use as few fingers as we poasibly can to peel and crack and eat our crabs while being polite and decent. So, at home, we just didnt need to bother about glares from the other table and feel shy or embarrassed. It was a day of home cooked food me and fed the man and happy to see his satisfied look and tummy.
