Garlic and butter giant tiger prawn

Look at the Algerian Tiger Prawn, huge like lobsters.. so juicy..yummy...

Sambal tumis udang and sup sayur


Aunty K's deep fried garupa, dah tinggal suku baru teringat nak amik gambo.....

Today is the last day for Aunty Kathy's to be in Birm. Uncle Apa wanted to experience being in Birm Whole Sale Wet Market. So at 5.30 am in the morning, Papa drove Uncle Apa and Aunty Kathy to the so called Pasar Borong Birm. Guess what they brought home...a box of huge 10 tiger prawn from Algeria, two garupas, 3 red snappers (ikan kerisi kot..), 20 kg of Holland onions, 2 kg of medium sized prawns, 3 kgs of baby ikan tamban (donno what Brits call this), 1 huge green cabbage and a cauliflower. Looks like Papa doesn't have to go fishing for a month. Alhamdulillah rezeki.....


So Aunty K cooked deep fried garupa with soy sauce, deep fried baby tamban and sambal udang. I grilled the huge tiger prawn with butter and garlic and made some vegetable soup. So lunch today was more than a king..kind of....


Makan punya makan, last2 the whole family missed the 2 pm coach to London, so got to buy other tickets, kesian....


Anyway, it was great to have relatives staying for a few days at our place. Really cheered the kids up. Thank you Aunty Kathy, Uncle Apa, Ezyana and Ewanina for visiting us. Jangan serik utk datang lagi.....boleh shopping lagi 7 kotak or even more..ha..ha...

This is how Mama cut and clean the huge tiger prawns, photos snapped by Aiman........
