Another quickie meal... for dinner

Photobucket
This is dinner 2 days ago...'ngah-poh-kai-fan' .... everything steamed. What does it contain?? Rice, chicken, cauliflower, carrot, shallots and spring onions.

Chopped/Cut everything (except the rice, of course) and throw everything into the bowl when the rice is almost cooked and steam some more. I fried some shallots in olive oil and 2 tiny teaspoons of lard (courtesy of Nancy)...to give it that smell.. 8) Then pour it into the rice just before serving it. Lil gal likes the rice but not the spring onions. For some reason she just doesn't like spring onions! 8( Son as usual just grunts when asked whether he liked it. Teenagers!

For steaming I've this two-tier electric steamer which I find really useful. I used to cook quite a bit when we were just starting out. Then I got tired of it all and did a lot of takeaways. Now it's back to cooking again cos the little one seems to like it a lot. It's a cycle!!!! But it's fun doing it for the kids!
