20081210 - Snowy Day

Cooking of the day

I was experimenting on the Tom Yam Kung (yesterday evening) as well as 'Char Siu' (this morning).

Tom Yam was cooked mainly from the instant paste and cube. Took me 2 limes to boil up to the desired sourness.

I marinated the 'Char Siu' one night in advance. Grilled it in the morning and it tasted like a piece of sweet meat. 2 table spoons of 'Char Siu' sauce. I don't think I cooked it badly just lacked of some coloring. Quite tasty.
