Butter Kimchi Fried Rice with Jamon Iberico

우후후후후 곧 예방 접종은 할 수 있어요!! 

아마도 올해 연말에 여행 할 수 있는데 결혼 10 주년을 축하하기 몰디브로 돌아가자. 우리가 몰디브에서 신혼 여행을했기 때문에 돌아가는 것은 특별 할 것이라고 생각해. 

하지만 코로나에 달려 있어. 그리고 여행 제한에 달려 있어. 우리는 여행 할 필요가 없어. 우리는 여행을 간절히 하치 않아. 

싱가포르 사람들은 여행 할 수 없다는 것에 너무 화가났는데 나는 공감할 수 없어. 싱가포르 사람들이 여행 할 수 없서 불평하는 방식으로 말하자면 싱가포르가 감옥 인 것 같아. 

버릇없고 불평 좀 그만해. 우리 모두 싱가포르에서 살고 있는데 벌써 너무 행운이죠. 우리의 삶은 벌써 아주 평범해. 특히 다른 나라에 비해. 

그래서 조금만 기다려 보고 세상이 정상으로 돌아오 겠어요. 화이팅! 

===================

We don't eat a lot of white rice in this household. The smallest bag of Thai Hom Mali rice (some generic supermarket house brand because I'm cheap AF #ButAlsoLowSES) lasts more than 2 years in our pantry. Thanks to a slowed metabolism attributed to middle age aunty-dom, we've had to cut down on refined carbs. So when we do eat white rice, we try to make it worthwhile:- go all out and make it flavoured white rice...because why eat plain white rice when you can indulge in greasy salty and totally scrummy chicken rice instead?  

So...the said bag of jasmine rice was just about a fingerbreadth past its expiry date, and a deep delve into the fridge unearthed a packet of kimchi that looked dangerously bloated, as well as a knob of precious fancy butter that was just a hair away from expiration too. With a dinner plan formulated to make kimchi butter fried rice, I made a quick jaunt to the market for some protein because I wasn't really feeling like luncheon meat: and hauled back some sweet corn and Spanish jamon. 


Ingredients (feeds 4):

400gm fresh kimchi
3 tbsp-heaps gochujang
1 tbsp ssamjang
2 knobs butter
160gm corn kernels
200gm jamon
5 cups cooked rice
1 large yellow onion, minced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp canola oil
seaweed for garnishing


Directions:

1) Fry onions in pre-heated wok with 1 tbsp canola oil on medium-high heat until translucent, about 3 minutes.

2) Add garlic, toss about for 1 minute.

3) Add butter, melt through.

4) Add kimchi, toss about for about 3 minutes.

5) Add gochujang and ssamjang, mix through.

6) Add corn, saute for about 2 minutes.

7) Add rice, toss through.

8) Add jamon, toss through. 

9) Serve with a sprinkle of shredded seaweed.

Janggut Laksa vs 328 Katong Laksa, Queensway Shopping Centre

Queensway Shopping Centre , where locals flock to for all things sports and optical-related, is also known for good laksa. There are 2 laksa stalls, within a stone's throw of each other, both claiming to serve up the best. Both tout to be affiliates of world-famous Katong ones, and the accolades, writeups and publicity plastered all the utilitarian facades will attest to the fierce competition. Seating at both eateries is cramped and constrained, so dining is really a touch-and-go affair. Both are manned by efficient, if a little curt, bevy of staff, and so turnover is high. Good news for the 5-minute-on-average long line of diners waiting their turn. The menu is similarly limited, with laksa being the primary dish of choice, and its fixins' like otah and lime juice as regular side orders. Curry chicken, Chinese-style, is also a popular option. Janggut Laksa  The Laksa ($3.50 for small) here was disappointingly lackluster. It was insipid, and the milk had obviously cur

싱가포르에 호커 센터 중에서 에이비씨 브릭워케 호커 센터를 우리가 제일 좋아해요. 실제로 싱가포르에서 가장 크고 유명한 호커 센터 중 하나예요. 가끔 외국인 여행자들이 이 호커 센터에서 식사하고 관광도 해요.  호커 음식은 내가 우리 나라 싱가포르에서 제일 사랑하는 것이에요. 호커 푸드는 내 컴포트 푸드여서 내 마음에 들어와요. 음식도 싸고 맛있고 종류도 많아요. 해외여행 가면 그리운 음식이 호커푸드인데 싱가포르에 돌아와서 가장 먼저 먹는 음식이 박초미예요.  박초미은 아마도 내가 제일 좋아하는 호커푸드예요. 나는 식초맛을 좋아하고 버섯볶음이 제일 맛있고 용기가 제일 맛있어요.   =========================   ABC Brickworks is one of the more well-known, and beloved, hawker centres in SG. The fact that tourists can sometimes be seen traipsing down the rows of neon-lit stalls is testament to its fame.  We hit up ABC a couple times a month, at least; the hawker centre is central enough that satisfying a local food craving here doesn't require an hour+-long round trip (unlike with Fengshan Bedok); there's ample enough lots that parking doesn't require the patience of a saint (unlike with Serangoon Gardens); seats are plentiful enough that large groups are able to find a table fairly easily, and stalls are varied enough that multipl

C'est la saison de la soupe. Meme si on n'a pas les quarte saisons à Singapour, le temps devient "pas aussi chaud" vers la fin de l'année; c'est cette période que j'ai envie de soupes et de ragoûts...ils sont très très réconfortants!  Dans d'autres nouvelles, les lumières et décorations de Noël à Rue Orchard sont allumées!! Je ne suis pas sûr pourquoi, mais voir les lumières de Noël me rend toujours heureux. Je pense, c'est peut-être parce que les lumières de Noël signifient l'approche de Noël, ma saison préférée de tous. Même si on ne fête pas Noël pour des raisons religieuses, c'est toujours le temps de la gentillesse et l'amour, toutes les qualités que j'apprécie et chérit. Et parce que tous nos proches resteront à Singapour, nous inaugurerons et passerons les fêtes de Noël et du Nouvel An avec eux à la maison au lieu. Ce sera certainement un changement, car nous sommes habituellement à l'étranger et nous regardons les feux d
