Top 10 of My Favourite Food Cooked in Lund

#10 Cornflakes Chicken 玉米片炸鸡

This is me & Jimmy's creation. Muahaha.
Nicely marinated chicken with crunchy cornflakes.
And fried till golden brown.
Tip(s):
Best if marinated overnight with Soya Sauce, Pepper, Salt.
For the cornflakes to stick to the chicken, use only Egg White (NO yolk).
Fry at medium heat.

#9 Corn Soup 玉米汤

Mum's Recipe. One of my personal favourite.
Cooked with sweet corn, minced meat. When everything is cooked, add egg and stir.
Tip(s):
Best if use Green Giant "Cream Style Sweet Corn"

#8 Bak Kut Teh 肉骨茶

Need I say more. Even the Europeans say it's good when Kang Wei cooked it for his Vildanden floor mates.
Cooked with pork with bone, and the Bak Kut Teh packet from Singapore.
Tip(s):
The longer you boil, the better the taste.
For me, it is even nicer if left overnight for the pork to absorb the essence of the soup.

#7 Har Kau 虾饺

This isn't really prepared by us. We bought it from Malmo 'Chinatown'.
But what I'm proud of is the way we cook it without a proper wok.
1st, fry till one side is slightly crispy. then add water and cover pan to steam.
and there you go. Har Kau which is crispy on 1 side and 入口即化on the other side. so you can have the better of both in 1 dish. =)
Tip(s):
err... considering the price... maybe money can be better spend on something else??

#6 Pork with Potato 香炒猪肉与马铃薯

Another mum's recipe.
1st, fry the potato, and set it aside.
Then cook pork with ginger and spices.
Finally add the potato, and oyster sauce and soya sauce.
Tip(s):
When cutting the meat, try cutting in the direction perpendicular to the muscle fibers, to avoid it being too chewy.

#5 Imperial Chicken 帝王药材鸡

Fitting a whole chicken into a pot of ~20cm in diameter and ~15cm deep prove to be a challenging task. So, what I did was to use another pot of equal diameter to cover it instead of the original cover. =)
Tip(s):
Dun be like us... Use a bigger pot..

#4 Char Siu 叉烧肉

My recipe:
2 tablespoon of Lee Kum Kee Char Siu Sauce
1 tablespoon of Tomato Sauce
1 tablespoon of Lingonberry Jam
1/2 tablespoon of Soya Sauce
Look at the ingredients... Tomato Sauce, Lingonberry Jam and Soya Sauce...
They dun seem like they will work well together, but the char siu actually taste quite nice. =)
Tip(s):
Personally I think, smaller slices of pork will absorb more of the sauce.

And here comes the Top 3

#3 Curry 咖哩

Cooked with Prima Taste Curry.
Just follow the steps printed on the box.
Tip(s):
Like Bak Kut Teh, I think curry is another dish that the longer you cook, the better the taste.

#2 Rendang 仁当猪肉

Something I wun miss when I go visit my Malay friends and relatives during Hari Raya.
Tip(s):
I still prefer Rendang Beef than Rendang Pork...

#1 Honey Roasted Pork 蜜汁烤猪

We modified the recipe cos we dun have the ingredients, and since we are approaching the end of our SEP here, we are not gonna buy more stuff.
Cooked with Honey (duh...), Salt, Black Pepper, Lemon Juice, Sesame Oil & Oregano
Tip(s):
Best if marinated overnight
Pour the sauce/juice over the pork every 10-15minutes for the best taste!
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Now at least I can go back proudly and say I've pick up a life skill here.
I KNOW HOW TO COOK!!!

My Long Hair 我和我的长头发

It has been 5 months since I cut my hair back in Kuching.
And it has really grown...
This is definitely the longest length I have ever had.

自拍耍帅'ing

Personally I prefer short hair.
Solely because it's easier to take care of.
*wun stink and get oily even not washing for few days.
*wun trap air, which act as an insulater for heat, around my neck
*wun trap and bring dirt n bacteria to my forehead,causing more pimples
*wun get too messy, so no need to wake up too early to spend minutes to comb
*and many more....

So, why is my hair this long then??

Well... having a hair-cut here in Sweden is just so expensive!!!
I have seen SEK300 for a normal hair-cut
and the cheapest hair-cut you can find in Lund, is somewhere near Spoletorp.
My friends here told me that, there you can cut for SEK100, but the uncle from Middle East cant really speak English, so have to 比手划脚.
Still... SEK100 is very expensive for me...
Why should I spend RM50 or S$25 to cut when, in Kuching I can have a haircut for RM4.


Dun care la.
Semester is gonna end soon.
I will just go for my Europe Trip which this long hair.
Hope Central Europe is not too hot for me...

我和我的长头发 - 关德辉
还记得小时候 爸爸曾这么说 你的头发长得这么长
怎么还不去剪短它 做一个好榜样
记得当年年纪小 爸爸的说话就是宝
一手拿着三毛钱 一手拿着鸡蛋糕
找那理发的印度佬 剪掉一千丝烦恼

还记得中学时 老师也这么骂 你的头发还是这么长
怎么还不去剪短它 做一个好学长
当年我胆子不小 老师的话我当做草
一手收拾纸和笔 一手拿起大书包
踏上脚车往校外逃 保住两千丝烦恼

如今我长大了 没人再那么吵 你的头发果然这么长
怎么还不去剪短它 保持好形象
现在的我己不算小 头发也长得刚刚好
不必担心家人骂 不必害怕警察抓
何必理会别人的话 剪掉三千丝烦恼

不必担心家人骂 不必害怕警察抓
何必理会别人的话 剪掉三千丝烦恼
不必担心家人骂 不必害怕警察抓
何必理会别人的话 剪掉三千丝烦恼

Last Dinner with Dezhong

After Shuyi, Dezhong is the next to leave us for his Euro Trip.
We had Cornflakes Chicken, French Bean with Egg, Meatballs, bit of Fried Rice, and Corn Soup.
It wasn't really a special meal, cos dezhong din request any special dishes.

But....

We do have some special entertainment.

~Naked Man Running~

I dunno what happen to him.
But I guess it is a forfeit for losing a game.
Haha!
We do enjoy the free show though.
A good laugh in the midst of having our dinner.

Journey to SAS Cargo (Malmö), Sending Our Luggages

I am so gonna blog about this...

I can't remember when did we come out with the idea of shipping our luggages, especially the winter clothings, back.
But it was finally done yesterday.
---------------------------------------------------------

It wasn't easy packing 4 person's stuff into just 2 luggages.
And the fluffiness of the winter jackets just doesn't help.
I fold & roll & stuff & squeeze my winter wear and accessories, together with Vincent's empty note pad and books, into my small luggage.
As for Stanley's Bag, it is even worst. there 4 person's clothes inside...
from the distorted shape in the middle, u can tell how full it is...
I am so scared that the zip or even the bag might just burst anytime during the transport...

Even after much squeezing, we still cant pack everything in.
So, all of us have to compromise.

3 pairs of leather shoes from Me, Stanley & Kane. And The Golden Compass, Notes and More Notes from Vincent.

Step 2: Transporting
It's a hellish job transporting the 2 luggages from Östra Torn, Lund to the SAS Cargo office in Bronsåldersgatan, Malmö.
And weight of the books just make things worse...
So, from Östra Torn, me and Stanley grab the ICA trolley stolen by Dun-Know-Who and push it all the way to the busstop.

We took Bus 166 to Lund Central. and take a train down to Malmö.

Then...
The real nasty.. hellish task comes....
Bringing the luggages without the help of the trolley from the train station to the bus stop at Värnhemstorget...
Really is like用尽吃奶的力to push & drag all the way...

And that's not all..
After taking Bus 33 to Stenyxegatan, we have to push & drag again, to SAS Cargo at Bronsåldersgatan.
It's only when we turn into Bronsåldersgatan that we met our 贵人.
A swede actually stop his car and offered to help us bring our luggages.
I'm truly grateful for that.
I never get to ask him his name 'cause he turn his car and drove off as I was asking the SAS Cargo worker for direction of the office.
Here I just wanna say, 'Tack så mycket, Mr. 贵人!'

Initially we want to ship the box on top as well..
Luckily we din... 'cos I think we will really tyre pumchek halfway...

Step 3: Sending
After reaching the TrushForwarding, Malmö SAS Cargo office,
I saw a paper stuck on the door.
"Opening Hours 08:00 - 16:00 Monday - Friday
Lunch 12:00 - 13:00"
I said to myself, 'We are screwed.'
'cos I know it was almost 4:40pm.

NO WAY AM I GONNA BRING THIS BACK TO LUND!!!

We just went in to try our luck.
looks like Lady of Luck is on our side this time.
There I met my 2nd 贵人 for the day.

The lady there, after looking at the BIG bags we have, allow us to send it in even after their office hour.
I helped the guy bring the luggages to the storeroom to weigh and store them, while Stanley fill in the details since I wun b around when the luggages arrive in Singapore.

The guy came back and tell us a shocking news..

"Your luggages are 63kg."

WTF!!! 63kg!!!
The 2 of us actually drag 63kg of stuff from Lund to Malmö...
*faint...*

Then, another shocking news come like a blow in the head.
After calculating, the lady turn her head over and said, 'The total cost is SEK3900+'

WTF!!! SEK3900+!!!
That's like triple of what I initially tot it would cost.
*faint...*

Looking at us begging for discount, and our pityful & stunt look.
The lady check for another airlines which offer a lower surcharge, and this time the cost is SEK3200.25.
Man.. A pain in the ass...
Reluctantly, I paid with my DBS Debit Card, 'cos we din bring enough cash..

Our Bill. SEK3200.25

Step 3: Going Back
Finally finish the task of shipping our stuff back.
I feel relieved.
At least now I dun have to carry so many things back, and I definitely wun get charged by the airport for overweight luggage.

Now.. Without the heavy luggages, we can actually smile in front of the office...

---------------------------------------------------------
Some photos taken on our way back.

---------------------------------------------------------
Google Map say it is 32.8km from Östra Torn, Lund to Bronsåldersgatan, Malmö.

It sure is a long journey there...

Last Östra Torn Gang Dinner

Today is the last dinner with the full gang of the 6 Östra Tornians.
(well... technically this is incorrect because Jimmy is from Delphi, and Kang Wei is from Vildanden... But who cares, we always had dinner together in OT.)

Back to the dinner.
Shuyi is leaving tomolo...
Back to homeland Singapore...
Back to the land where you can find all kinds of good food... *jealous glare*
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Upon her request, we have Rendang! and Corn Soup!
and we had Mixed Brocolli as the vege, and Fries as the side dish.

And to end the meal, we have applemust from Kiviks Musteri to wash the food down.

Quite a scrumptious meal, i must say...
Despite some cock-ups in the preparations, everything actually tastes quite nice...
And I just love it when we have ~1kg of Rendang that we can eat all we want...
YUMMY~~
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Last dinner, last group photo with the 6 of us together.

And looking back....

*taken very long ago when we still have the chilli ketchup

Man! I look so different with long hair...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To Shuyi:
Thanks for washing almost all our dishes.
Hope you can perfect your Apple Crumble, and make 1 with at least 1 sigma of consistency.

To Jimmy:
Thanks for coming over early to help out, despite staying in Delphi.
Hope we can come up with more crazy ideas of cooking the dishes. Muahaha.
And we should really try to hit at least 1 sigma...

To Kang Wei:
Thanks for helping out and coming over early too, especially when you stay the furthest away from OT.
And most importantly, thanks for sharing generously with us all your spicies and prima taste packs. A lot of the food wun taste as nice without those paste.
Hope you will finally get yourself a deep fryer and a bigger pot in Singapore. =)

To Dezhong:
Thanks for bringing in some new recipes that I have never thought of, eg. tomato egg, carrot & pork, etc.
Hope you will learn to love garlic in your dishes. *smirk*

To Stanley:
Thanks for doing some of dishes.
Hope you at least learn some dishes from us to bring back to Singapore. =)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Guys! We Should Really Meet Up To Have A Meal Together Again When We Are Back In Singapore!
OR EVEN COOK!!

Pillow Fight in Östra Torn

Talk about crazy stuff we do in Lund...

A PILLOW FIGHT in Östra Torn..

----------------------------------------------------------
This is taken when it was still early, and I personally find playing soccer with a pillow very funny.

----------------------------------------------------------
Then... by 7.30pm... the real game begins...
We do it the ancient roman way - where the emperor throw a tissue and as soon as it hit the ground the battle starts.

Phew... that was tiring...
Especially running around, swinging your pillow, right after dinner...
..................................................................
After ~30minutes.......

Time to cease fire and have a debrief.

WEE!!! Throw your pillow UP HIGH!!

----------------------------------------------------------
And finally a group photo.

In the process of lying down on the grass with our pillow

ARGHHHH!!! WATER BALLOONSS!!!

Too bad you didn't run fast enough...
(p/s: that's my neighbour from Kazakhstan)

------------------------------------------------

Me and my sexy pink pillow.

Yeah... talk about crazy stuff we did in Lund...

------------------------------------------------
Thanks Claudia, for organizing the event.
