The Treasure Pot
2010
To those of you who are craving for more awesomom’s delicious and artistic dishes, here I come with MOORRREEE. 
Because there is a star in this blog entry and that’s not me, I shall start by posting a less prettier picture of myself, nah :
God, I hope that hasn’t scare you away~
Starting with brunch, we had :
Spicy Flowery Crab Mee Hoon
Mom even helped us dig out the meat out of those crabs. So touched… T__________T
Sze Chuan Style Hot & Sour Soup - verrryyy appetizing.
Pulut Leper – A delicacy from Terengganu, pronounced as “pulut liper“. Ianya merupakan pulut berintikan ikan.
Ate too much we had to go for a swim in the pool to speed up digestion.
Then as we were watching TV halfway, mum surprised us with these huge, bigass prawns! :
Holy Moly!
Wonder where these prawns were going? All of em’, into the Treasure Pot.
Let’s start with the base of the pot.
Stuffed Bean Curd Puffs, Nam Yee Yam, turnips & baby corns.
Now let’s take a 360 degree look :
What really grabbed my attention though, was the giant abalones and huge braised dried scallops. Seems like size does matter! XD
Here we also have braised dried oysters, salted prawns (now you know where the prawns went), Golden Money Bags…
Wondering what’s in the money bags? Heheheh…
Mom’s so creative and cute at the same time. She chose to surprise us with quail eggs!!
Each of us siblings had an abalone EACH. <3 <3
Yay! *cheers to a new year*
Forced my lazy ass to get up the couch and doll-up as my friends were coming over :
Wore an XS Jaspal dress; a birthday gift from Audrey. (she really thinks I’m an XS but I’m not that thin lorrr! luckily nge ngeh jiii still can fit).
My friends are… mainly guys. Not because I was a bitch at high school, but because I was the only Chinese female in the Science stream. -__________-
Last but not least, just like our previous post, we highlight the star dish at the end of our post.
For CNY day 1, it was the Tiger Chiffon Cake. For CNY day 2 :
It would be mom’s famous Hakka dish – the Treasure Pot. ^^
Another round of applause guys! Mom cooked all the dishes herself. I hope you enjoyed it.
Lov ya~

A food blog would be really great, make your mum famous!
I was wondering if you can blog more regarding
Sorry if I wasn’t following too well, is your mum a housewife?
Your parents seemed to be showering you and your brother alot
of love! They really inspire me to wanna be an amazing
parent too someday
your childhood, how you and your brother grew up..
memorable experiences..and I am really curious as to whether
have you got scolded by your parents before? Your family
seems so like a role model family!
