Edit
Udang masak nanas is a Nonya soup that's sweet, sour in addition to salty. The iii flavours are rigid but non overwhelming because they're good balanced. The primary ingredients are udang (prawns) in addition to nanas (pineapple). The recipe also uses lots of herbs in addition to spices. Nonya nutrient is never subtle, right?
This is about other recipe from Mrs Wee Kim Wee's collection inward "Cooking for the President". It's the quaternary recipe I've tried from the book.
Udang masak nanas is bully for whetting the appetite because it's slightly tangy in addition to a wee fight spicy. And prawns are, for me, ever a treat.
Udang masak nanas is an slow soup. Just assemble all the ingredients inward a pot in addition to simmer away. Kid stuff!
My woman raise made a dish really similar to Udang Masak Nanas but, instead of prawns, she used a small-scale fish called kekek (ponyfish). The ex-president's married adult woman sometimes used the wonderfully tasty fish too. That's non surprising since the basic recipe is quite mutual in addition to adaptable.
You know what's surprising? Mrs Wee made omelettes amongst grunter brains on Sundays equally a treat, only similar my mother! Her daughter, similar me, had to construct clean the brains amongst toothpicks. And the 2 cooks' recipes were practically the same, non that i could vary a Chinese mode omelette much.
It's a compassion my woman raise has passed away. Otherwise, she'd endure actually tickled to run into that she in addition to the ex-first lady portion a recipe equally esoteric equally grunter encephalon omelette.
