AN EASY MEAL FOR A BUSY DAY

 

ARGH, the dog had diarrhoea last week. Thory teman (tags along with) me when I study 

or do my chores 

 while the other two pests are at work. He’s my saviour, until the day he had diarrhoea! This dog EATS EVERYTHING except fruit and vegetables, a pure cannibal just like his owner, Savvy K. 

EVERYTHING includes animal goat fertilisers (poop!) in my planters, birds, iguanas, squirrels, rats, bees and flies. Seriously, these are only the “foods” I am aware of. It was a nightmare the day he bit into a hornet. We had to quickly give him my darling Belle’s anti-histamine as his mouth parts began to swell. Anyway, he was exiled outside, 

and for two days I was mopping, flushing down the garden and washing his doggie butt. With all this excitement, the last thing I needed was Gismo Man shouting, “What’s for dinner?” So,

Old Mother Hubbard

Went to her cupboard

To make her poor husband a DISH

When she got there

The cupboard was bare

So the poor husband had FISH

Yes, this Portuguese Steam Fish Sauce is a life saver. 

Just cut and throw tomatoes, ladies fingers, brinjals, onions and a fish into a casserole dish. Pour in the sauce and bake covered at 200 C for 30 mins. 

Ta-dum….dinner is ready. I served with rice, left-over pumpkin, yoghurt and fruit acar (pickles). I am sure you can use lamb, chicken or pork if the fishes aren't swimming your direction.

TQ Mak Nyonya. TRY it, you will not REGRET it.
