Bite On It!

Previously I came out with Ayam Masak Pedas and I thought the recipe can also be used for pork so I tested it out…. taste not too bad but I still prefer the chicken dish better. That was because when we fried the sliced pork, it will dried up a little and unlike chicken meat which will be juicy after being fried.

It worth a try if you have some lean pork and not sure what to do with them…

Ingredients

• 400g Lean pork
• 1 tsp Tumeric powder
• 1 pc Onion (sliced into rings)
• 2 pcs Chili padi (sliced)
• 1 stalk Lemon grass (sliced thinly)
• 1 tsp Lemon juice
• A pinch of salt

Methods

1. Marinade sliced pork (5mm thick) with tumeric powder, lemon juice and salt for at least 1/2 a day… the longer the better!
2. Heat up oil in wok/frying pan and fry the sliced pork until slightly dry and remove from wok
3. Stir-fry onion, chilies and lemon grass until fragrant
4. Add in the fried sliced pork and any left over juices from the marinade and fry for 2-3 minutes
5. Serve with hot rice

Ever wonder how to keep your chilies and some other fresh produces Fresh in your fridge for weeks?

When my MIL was not around, I will normally do my marketing once a week and to keep some of the stuff fresh is a real headache sometimes. Then I got this tips from my mom and I’m glad to have know this so a lot of my fresh stuff, especially chillies (I used a lot at times) can stay fresh for a long time. Can you believe it that my chillies stayed fresh even after 2 weeks sitting in the fridge?

Make sure you have an air-tight container and lined it with kitchen towels or tissue papers. Dry your chillies before putting them in the container and that’s it! You can put another piece of kitchen towel or tissues on top of the chillies before covering as the tissues will absorb all the moisture/water vapor when you move your container in and out of your fridge.
