2024 Dragon CNY & Valentine's Day

 
This year, my family and I went back to Kuala Terengganu for the Year of the Dragon's CNY celebrations and holidays. It was a time of togetherness, joy and happiness, marking the start of a brand new year filled with hope, prosperity, and boundless blessings!

 

The post above showcased our meals when we were back in Kuala Terengganu. The first photo showed an ensemble of homemade nasi lemak. That homemade sambal petai by my MIL was awesome!

 

The rest of the photos were about our CNY eve dinner dishes and snacks. The "tong sui" or Chinese sweet soup was a dessert I looked forward to!


 

From the post above, it's about #makanmakan during our stay in Kuala Terengganu.

3 - MIL's soy sauce chicken dish, crab cakes & roast pork

5 - Homemade musang king durian ice cream
6 - Local breakfast (laksang, kayu keramat, karipap)
7 - Nasi ayam
8 - Sotong celup tepung
9 - Homemade fried nian gao


 

Hubby and I then went to Cherating to spend our Valentine's Day. 😍❤️

Simple Pork & Bacon Burger and Pork & Potato Patties (Recipes)

 

Simple Pork & Bacon Burger

 

Ingredients:

 
Burger buns, pork patties, pork bacon, cheese slices, tomato slices (or any veggies you like), any sauce you like
 
 

Instructions:

 
First, I pan-fried the pork bacon slices without oil in a frying pan, because they will release oil when they are pan-fried.
 
Then, I used the leftover oil to pan-fry the pork patties. After scraping off burnt bits from the pan, I used the remaining oil to slightly char the burger buns.

Then, just assemble everything into a burger to your liking! I only have tomatoes at home, or else I'd have added some lettuce and gherkins too.


I like my burger dry, without any sauce dripping all over my plate. Haha. You can add your favorite sauce if you like.
 
Now, let's move on to the next recipe.

 

Pork & Potato Patties

Ingredients:

 
400g ground pork
2 large potatoes, peeled and chunks
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup Korean pancake flour mix
1 large egg, beaten
Cooking oil for frying
 

How to:

 
1. Boil the potatoes chunks until fork tender. Drain and mash them slightly.
 
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine ground pork, mashed cooked potatoes, chopped onion, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Add pancake flour mix and beaten egg to bind the mixture together.
 
3. Heat cooking oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Take a portion of the mixture and shape it into a patty. Make a few patties at one go.
 
4. Place the patties in the frying pan and cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and cooked through. You just have to eyeball them.
 
5. Once cooked, transfer the patties to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil. Serve hot!
