Curry laksa for dinner

Are you  living abroad and missing food from home?? What would you do when you are craving for oriental food?? Yes, you be creative, you improvise, you make do with whatever you can get. That is what I do.

So what did I have for dinner tonight?? It’s Curry Laksa! Yumm. Actually I cheated, I didn’t have to cook from scratch, I managed to get laksa paste from the chinese store I visited awhile ago in Plymouth. Anyone who knows me or lived with me would know I am very fussy when it comes to food, and cooking. Eventhough it sounded simple and instant, I actually spent alot more time than u’d think.

I used ABC soup that was cooked overnight in my magic cooker (slow cooker) ,  as the soup base for my laksa (so that it would be tastier). I also added some prawns, sliced fish cakes, beansprout, shredded chicken and coconut cream into the soup, and simmer for 30 minutes or more. Finally, I added some corn flour to thicken the soup.

Check out the final product It was such a satisfying meal, felt like I was home! Yum Yum Yum. Can’t wait to have Nasi Lemak for tomorrow’s dinner!

How about you? WHat did you have for your dinner when you are away from home?? Mind sharing?
