Does this look familiar to you?some of you might actually know what this is.This is the bomb.The ultimate.The food of all food.my favourite. =) Yam kueh has that old Hakka nostalgia to it.
you know,right now,i feel like sitting on a plane,and fly back to malaysia just to eat my grandma's Wu Tao Kou.i have been eating this since i was 4 years of age.till today,not bored yet.won't be also.know why?cause its Wu Tao Ku leh!can i be bored of?you must be kidding.
You may be walking on the street and you glanced through a kueh foodstall by the road.knowing there will be yummy kuehs there.trust me,it won't taste as good as how my grandma can make.she's the legend.With sweet sauce,or without,you can taste it.it's heaven.
wana know how to make these?here you are.
2.3 litres water
500g (after peeling) yam, diced into 3/4 cm cubes
3/4 cup (or more, up to you) dried prawns, washed & chopped coarsely
500g rice flour
3 t salt (more or less)
1/4 t pepper (more or less)
1/8 to 1/4 t 5 spice powder (to your liking)
2 t chicken stock granules & 1/8 t msg
Garnishing:
shallots, sliced finely n fried in oil till crisp
finely cut spring onions
finely chopped red chilies
1. Put 6 to 7 T veg oil into hot wok and add the dried prawns and fry till golden brown and crisp at low heat. If dried prawns aren't fried long enough, the kueh will lack flavor--I learnt this in my first try.
2. Add the yam and fry till light brown. Season fried ingredients with salt, pepper, msg, 5 spice powder and add the water (which seems a lot but will dry up) and rice flour, mixing well. Taste the batter and adjust seasoning to your liking. Continue frying at low heat ( mixture burns easily), stirring well for about 12 to 15 minutes until mixture is thick, stiff and 'springy'.
3. Grease a 12"/30 cm round tin and scoop the fried mixture in, pressing lightly to level and fill out the tin.
4. Steam at high heat for 50 min. Let kueh cool completely and slice it into small servings. Scatter the garnishing over the top. Any leftover can be kept in the fridge and later reheated by pan-frying with a little oil till light-golden.
5. Serve with a sweet chili sauce like Lingham's, and a mug of kopi-O.

Wonder
have you ever thought of how close you are to the person you're close with?especially when you're like 123456789km away from them.has the question "are we really that close that if you were to ask me any question bout that person,i can answer it." cross your mind?sometimes,i really wonder.
what made us that close?
what keeps us together?
what are our similar likings?
do you know me that well?
ignore me,im not trying to be emo or anything.then again,i feel like we're not close anymore.day by day,we have lesser things to talk about.are we just not gonna talk much till i'm actually standing at a close distance to you?yet,i thought and thought.

Curled up.
stayed at my brothers today.you know,the usual thing to do when it comes to holidays.the thought of curling my hair at the end of the year,was in mind.cause i've tried short cut,straighted,but nor curled.not lala curls.but long wavy curls.romantic curls.get it?
hmm....shall think about it.
though i did try it out today.was really nice,then again,i think i'll leave my hair longer. =)
nice?erm,or not.
then,me,nerd,ju & kel head off to town to have lunch.since we have been lazy and not go out for quite sometime.we finally decided we shall have an family lunch outing.know what,GREAT IDEA.we should get some air.

Party riot.
come to realize,NZ is exactly like Aussie.well,maybe there's more to it.say how?one word,parties.
despite the fact that aussie people are not friendly,not gentle.it's just rapt.really rapt.policemen may seem a tad bit vexatious,they actually help alot.honestly,why do people need to get so drunk every friday or saturday right?you think its merrymaking,but its actually not.you're just being stupefied,amuck and uncontrolled.
maybe some of you think,"wtf is bea talking.drinking liquor is fun okay." think twice.
you may click on it if you wish to see the rest.impressing?i believe it is not.This is not what you call "partying".i might relate this to disordered and mentally ill.

you know what?i'll tell you what.you're a bitch.oh no,sorry you dont deserve that.
not only a bitch,you're a whore,a slut,a backstabber,an eyesore,a pain in the ass,a double-crosser.
i'm sure you dont want me to go on,if you do,do get a piece of paper.you'll need it.
STOP HASSLING ME AND GO AWAY!
you thought i was your best friend,for that matter,you treated me like one.yes,i do appreciate it.but sometimes,you can be a real pain in the ass.no kidding,seriously.
why do you want me to hate people you have something against with?don't you think you're a tad bit pushy?go home and boss your silbings around,i suggest.
plus,the whole incident thing today,i fucking didnt do anything!
