Chinese Spinach with century egg

-
It is Saturday and one of my daughter is having lunch at home before heading out. I will try my best to cook for them so long as my children are at home for lunch or dinner knowing that they will not have enough vegetables intake when dining out.
Decided to cook teochew porridge. We have switch to brown rice for quite some time. Decided to cook chinese spinach. I have some left over of duck wings from Taipei. So it ended up as my porridge side dish as well. Simple lunch for 2 person. Our favourite to have plenty of vegetables.
Yes, supposed to use century egg. But I have got left over of 3 flavour eggs from my Taipei trip. So decided to use it to cook with the vegetables.
1. Place water to boil in the kwali
2. Boil the stalk for 1 min, then stir in the leaves for another 3 mins.
3. Add the cut eggs. Add salt to taste.
4. Add fried garlic.
Serve.
Oh usually, I will pre-fried some garlic for daily use. However, garlic prices has increased so much that I decided to try out the ready made ones. Well, it turned out that it is as good as the ones I fried my own.
Here are the products I got from my Taipei trip at Tamsui

Crush and tie it into a ribbon 250 grams desiccated coconut (packed or fresh) Half teaspoon of salt To make the coconut needs some common sense. We like to have a dense coconut filling and not a dried version that taste like dried pulp. Though the above recipe call for 200 grams of water, if our fire is not properly maintain, we will need more water. Place sugar, water and pandan leaves into a small pot. Boil and ensure the sugar melt before we place the desiccated coconut

Watercress soup A healthy cooling soup for the hot weather. Watercress is good for its cooling properties, while wolfberries (goji berries) is well know for its immunity benefits. Ingredients required (I am cooking for 10 persons) Ingredients A Chicken/pork of your preference (I use frozen 5 frozen drumsticks) Watercress - 3 bunches (3 times of the above picture) Ingredients B Chinese Ham (Optional) - 4 slices (I used the Jing Huo Tui from Taiwan) Garlic (4 big ones) Red dates (24 pcs) Honey Dates (4 pcs) Water - Enough for 10 persons (About 12 rice bowls) Ingredients C  Wolfberries / goji berries -1 tablespoon(added only at the last 5 minutes) Salt to taste There are no scientific way of cooking soup compared with baking.  If you like your soup to taste meaty, you add more meat. For me, we do not like meat. So I just add enough for family members who wants meat and just enough for soup to taste sweet. Chinese Ham - If you are able to get those dark coloured ones, you can pu
