KA, ok we can be deep fryer twins! haha.
eh levynn, your colour nicer. i jealous. mine is black. so boring. hahahah.
recipe for calamari. my first time trying so dunno if can or not. i found 2:
BUTTERED BATTERED CALAMARI
INGREDIENTS:
• 2 cups vegetable oil for frying
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 tablespoon salt
• 1/2 tablespoon ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 pound squid, cleaned and cut into 1/2 inch rings
________________________________________
DIRECTIONS:
1. Heat oil in a saucepan or deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2. Pour buttermilk into a medium bowl. In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, salt, pepper and oregano. Dip squid rings into the buttermilk, then into the seasoned flour.
3. Place the coated pieces in the hot oil, and fry in small batches, turning if necessary, for even cooking. When evenly browned, remove to paper towels to drain, and continue with the rest of the squid. Serve hot.
but i think i will do this one:
DEEP FRIED CALAMARI
INGREDIENTS:
• 2 pounds squid, cleaned and sliced into rounds
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• black pepper, italian, chilli powder
________________________________________
DIRECTIONS:
1. Rinse and drain squid well. Pat squid dry with paper towels. Sprinkle salt on squid.
2. Put flour and a few squid in a small paper or plastic bag. Shake the squid rounds in the bag until coated with flour mixture. Remove squid and place more in the sack to coat.
3. Heat oil in a medium size frying pan over a high heat. Fry the calamari in the oil until golden brown and crispy. Drain the calamari on paper towels. Serve hot.

aiya.. those traditional chinese customs lor... must 'signify' the moving in by cooking.. (light the stove) and stuff la... got to bring some clothes in to signify that we are staying there, occupied by us... to increase the 'yang qi'...
PB, wat u do? until ur am kon pain pain ah.. kekeke...
Cecilia..
wat do u mean by moving in ceremony? meaning after that day u all officially stay in liao or wat?
I dun remember me have to do that leh.. just do "dong tu" for the contractors to start renovation then next is choose ausipcious date to move in "Open Door" ceremony where we boil water in kettle with small charcoal those thingy, walk over the charcoal. Throw rice+salt at all corners of the hse, then bai bai in the middle of the living room, put kettle back on kitchen stove, then cold liao.. drink the water, some is use the water to cook etc.. then stay in liao mah..
why must bring clothes to signify? unless u are still not shifting in as yet. then that day is more of the Open Door day lah..

here's what i had to do:
before moving in:
first clean the whole house. then throw glutinious rice and green beans in all corners of the house, including toilet. after a few weeks, use a NEW BROOM to sweep it away. better sweep all or else daogays will grow haha.
i also had to make sure the house had sugar, salt, rice, soya sauce... all the necessities. this is to ensure that you will always have enough to eat (or something)
on the day i officially opened the door:
i had to roll an ong lai into the house. something like for the luck and prosperity to "goon goon lai". then have to leave the pineapple there until got juice come out. i even have a video of it. it's so funny.
on the day i officially "moved in" (and that night was my first night):
boil water in the middle of the house, just use a small charcoal pot, no smell one la. open all the windows lor. had to drink something sweet and all drink to share the sweetness (i invited my family over)
i'm very superstitious. couldn't you tell?

oh about my neck. i think just koon bo ho say la. then i just went for thyphoid and flu jab for my hornymoon, so now am koon pain, and arms kena poked.... boohoohoo!
so cecilia, is it only you and your hubby is it? simple dinner ah? come come i plan for you (choose 2 or 3 out the following, ala multiple choice style):
- steam meat (seasoned with sesame oil and pepper, can also add an egg if you want)
- sliced fish with ginger and onion (season fish slices with sesame oil and pepper, then fry with ginger, onions and spring onions)
- stir fried broccoli and carrots (just stir and fry and then add oyster sauce. cover until you can cut thru carrot with your frying slice)
- carrot and potato soup (scald pork bones. then put in boiling water with potato cubes, carrot slices, onions, then boil for about 1 hr on low heat. or you can scald the pork bones then throw everything into the slow cooker in the morning so when you get home, you'll have yummy soup awaiting)
serve with rice
simple, nice, and healthy (no msg!)

oh one good chicken soup stock with no MSG is knorr! not bad. it comes in a carton box kind. that stock, add celery, carrots and onion, boil on low fire until carrots are soft, also very nice!
i used to be a big fan of the stock cubes but of late realise better not cos high MSG content, and also i react to MSG very quickly. i will get sore knees. so crazy hor?
