Dish #5 - Cabbage Porridge, or 'kiam bei'

I woke up early for gym today but I was still feeling a little undigested and heavy in the tummy.. not to mention sleepy. I was contemplating whether I should continue for gym, but the decision was made for me. Turns out mum was still feeling quite sick in the stomach since last night (I assure you it's not because of the po piah, see previous entry) and she gave me the task of cooking lunch. With her instructions of course.

So this time, I was determined not to screw up again. Porridge.. how badly can you screw THAT up. HAHAHA..

Cabbage porridge, or what we call 'kiam bei', is my dad's favourite dish. I HATED it when I was young cos it tasted so.. boring. Still don't really have a particular affection for it, but at least I'm willing to eat it more for health conscious reasons.

And I'm glad to announce that.. it turned out well! :D Pretty fantastic in fact. :)

My first attempt at the porridge. :)

Mum was pretty encouraging by saying it tasted good, so hopefully when I do this again it'll turn out the same standard. :D
