Second Day Of Puasa

Don't worry, I'm not going to do a daily "puasa" post. ^^
We went to Pasar Ramadhan yesterday to look for buka puasa dishes. For today's buka puasa, it's home-cooked meal, very simple home cooked meal.

Grilled pari (skate) with budu (with lots of shallots, lime juice & cili padi) and blanched lady's fingers. Very very simple but very very good. 

What's more fun was that everyone chipped in at the kitchen. Mommy prepared the fish & budu mix, Daddy looked after the grilling and Raimie put the lady's finger in the boiling water and set the table too.

What should I cook next week, I wonder?

      Sahur = pre-dawn meal
      Iftar = buka puasa. ;p

      Petai today? Cannot lah! Tomorrow gotta go to work. Don't want to stink up the office toilet! Bwahaha!!!

      The boys love this simple dish. We don't usually eat a lot of "lauk-pauk" in one sitting anyway. ;p
