All In One


Life is heavenly when u get everything u like in one place...

I love, absolutely love taro, pork, sweet potatoes, pumpkin, onions etc. So much that I think I'd die without them! Hehe, may be not that serious. Just that my life would be very miserable.

The other day, I decided to cook everything I like.... in a pot. Not something my mum would do unless she is cooking bu bu cha cha. With these ingredients, She would be able to create many dishes. Not me though. I didn't inherit any of mum's talents :( Hence, a pot of everything-porridge with my all my favourites :P Simple yet delicious.

My everything-in-one-pot Porridge

My 'inspiration' (craving?) came from the sweet potatoes porridge I had on my final night in Taipei. I had FOUR (or was it five? aww, too many that I lost count!) bowls of that porridge! I wonder what went through the waitress' mind when we asked for re-fill again and again and again and etc.... ;p

I have no idea why I love sweet potatoes so much. Even the beautiful sea view of Tan Shui 淡水 couldn't keep me interested. As soon as I saw a cart full of sweet potatoes, I ran over and bought TWO. Naturally sweet and very creamy! Love it!

The potatoes were HUGE!


We must have made the charcoal-baked sweet potatoes look extra-tasty for the couple behind us got attracted too

Hmmm... I couldn't help wondering why I like sweet potatoes so much though - was I a couch 'sweet potato' in my previous life? oh, I think I must have been a SWEET couch potato lah hehe...
