一個人出走の天空 ::

又是吃的時刻了！看來最近都很常blog食物也！那大家有沒有口水滿地流的？嘻嘻！
It's time for food again! I've been blogging about food so often lately. Did you guys drool with envy while looking at those pictures? =P

這一次，是我前幾天的晚餐餐單啦！第一次煮，所以要寫下來食譜如何，不然就會像以前那樣，很多拿手好菜全都忘了怎么做，比如咕嚕肉啦、西米谷甜點啦、釀苦瓜啦、苦瓜鹵肉啦等等等等，全都忘了怎么做了啦！
It's the first time I made these two dishes below. It's because it's my first time, I need to write down the recipe. Otherwise, it will just be like other dishes that I've made before where I've forgotten how to cook them again! Haiz...

第一個就是湯，是一個忘了叫什么瓜的湯。它西瓜不像西瓜，冬瓜不像冬瓜，有像西瓜外觀的皮以及像西瓜籽子的白色籽子，也有像冬瓜的肉。這叫什么瓜？有誰知道？我可是問了賣菜老板娘，她告訴了我，而這個瓜的名字我也聽過，只是一轉頭，我就把它給忘得一干二凈了。
The first one was a soup! What kind of soup was that? Don't ask me, I forgot totally about the what kind of melons is that already. Its appearance is like watermelon, however, its pulp is just like winter melon. You could easily find it in a market. If you guys do know about its name, please tell me ok? I did ask the vegetables peddler, however, I totally forgot its name just after a few minutes.

就管我們叫它x瓜吧！嘻嘻！
Hence, what about we call it “x melon"?

我是第一次煮，就只加了煲湯骨、杞子以及紅棗后煲兩個小時即可。蠻不錯哦，很清淡，覺得應該有清涼的功效吧，而且我認為比冬瓜湯好喝。
I put in some wolfberries (Qi Zi) and red dates, then boil it with small heat for about 2 hours. It tasted good and I think it may have the efficacy of reducing the fever. Furthermore, it tasted better than winter melon! Haha..

煲後，瓜會呈現線條狀，吃起來的口感有點像冬粉，卻比冬粉較後些。嫩滑得像機老鼠粉般，我超愛那個味道，好好吃哦！
It would look like "noodles" when it's ready to dish off. It tasted like green been noodle but it's much smoother and tasty. =P I pretty like it.

### x瓜湯 ###

接下來就是麻婆豆腐。我可是第一次煮呢！賣相是蠻不錯的，只是不懂為什么拍起來就差了那么多！暈～
Next, it was MaPo Tofu. It was my first too. It looked good actually, but I have no idea why it looked quite different in picture.

4. 滾后翻炒，加上蔥即可盛上。
Sprinkle with some scallion and dish off.

我忘了放冬菇丁。暈！雖然味道還蠻不錯，可惜哦，我還是覺得欠了點什么，但就是不懂如何改善。有誰懂？請指教指教！或許有放冬菇丁的話，味道會有點不一樣吧！？
Haiz.. I forgot to add in some diced mushrooms. Although it tasted good, still it's lack of something. I have no idea how to improve it, what about to put in some hot bean paste to improve the taste? Or mushroom too. =P If you guys have any idea, please tell me k? =P

看，我盛起來的第二碗湯，竟然在我不知情的情況下不知何時飛進了一只蟲！哭～你要喝湯就告訴我嘛，獨喝難肥咧！臭蟲！
See, when I wanted to taste the soup again, I was shocked by the insect inside! Oh my "cutie" insect, if you want to try it just tell me! Do you know what is the meaning of sharing? =P

昨天弄了個泰式雞，不錯是不錯，賣相就不大好了！
呼，要嘗試多幾次怎么能把雞肉的賣相弄得更好些！嘻嘻！

I made a Thai style chicken yesterday. The taste wasn't bad, but I'm not satisfied with the look. Perhaps I should try few more times to make it better. =P
