Ayam Cah Jamur

Ayam Cah Jamur Tahu 

(Chicken with Mushroom and Soft Tofu)

Another childhood food to share.

My mother is kind of person who loves 30 minutes cooking. 

Until now she is never fancy to make rendang, gulai, curry, or any dishes that required hours of cooking (even though we love those dishes so much)

when I asked her, why she very seldom cook curry or rendang for us, she will have thousand reasons to answer :

1. Gaz and electricity is expensive

2. Cook too long make the food loose the nutrition

3. Stay too long near the heat damage my  skin

4. I am very busy, I got plenty thing to do rather than stay in front of stove

and on... and on... and on... LOL love you mom... :-)

One Sunday morning, on my regular walk around the complex.

Again, I like to say and keep repeating that walking is just so relaxing and stress relieving.

It doesn't really burn so much calories like run but (who cares...)

I just walk slowly, enjoy the surrounding and think about what to cook for dinner.
