DiNNeR!

Oct 11th, 2008

I was craving for some Mummy Koh's cooking.
So I decided to try out the 'Asam Prawn' she used to cook.
Mummy said it's pretty easy, just season the Prawn with Tamarind ( Asam Gao ), add a little bit of soy sauce or salt if I want.

I seasoned the prawns for about 5 hours, with just the Tamarind.
Thinking the dish might not come out the way it should, I also had two other dishes planned : Sambal prawn with long bean and okra, also bitter gourd soup.

As I fried the prawns and the sambal prawns, I had my husband helped me with the soup....
Tomatoes, Ginger, Meat, Garlic and Bitter Gourd :

The Asam Prawn did not turn out very good. Not very tasty as I told mum after dinner. She said maybe the Tamarind version I used is not salty enough.... I should give it a try another time..

Here's some pictures :)

Yummy!

Dustin loves the Sambal Prawn and Soup, but said the Asam Prawn is so sooooo....
Will need to give it a second try when I am in the mood :)
