Tulips, this is my mum's recipe.

Papaya Fish Soup

Ingredients
1 threadfish tail or codfish tail or even bones, about 1 kg
100g of peanuts or black beans(some are allergy to peanuts)
1 kg of not-ripe papaya
1 piece of tangerine peel (can get a packet from Chinese medical hall)
2 pieces of old ginger pound
9 cups of water (about 1.5litres)
2 tablespoons oil

Seasoning (optional)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon light soya sauce

Method:
1. Soak the peanuts or black beans over night. Drain before use.
2. Skin and halve the papaya and remove seeds, rinse and cut into big wedges. Rinse tangerine peel.
3. Clean and scale fish tail. Rinse, drain and pat dry thoroughly/
4. Heat oil in a wok, when oil is smoking, add in ginger and fry till fragrant. Now include the fishtail and fry till both sides light golden brown,
5. Bring water to boil. And add in all ingredients, cover pot and leave to boil at high flame for 15minutes when boiling. Then change to lower flame and simmer 2.5hours. Taste and add seasoning if preferred.
6. Serve the soup. Cooked ingredients can be served separately with some light soya sauce.

NB: Mummy said that some CL will add some carnation milk to the soup and a bit of dom, but she usually does not do that.

SL:think u better prepare ur masks loooooo......hopefully they hv changed of plans too.

kikilala:so sweet jacket for hubby
happy.gif
ya cn be very cold at least if no bed then sleep on sofa etc then no blanket ma
 
i read somewhere on the MOH website that the h1n1 is already spreading within the community. Their suggestion for high risk people is to wear a mask when going to crowded places. which means that if you know someone who just came back from infected places, and they still continue their usual work, then we also cannot complain, we just have to wear a mask to protect ourselves!
Need to go buy mask now....
 
Weishy,
Jacket for hubby is in MtA packing list... I just follow
happy.gif


Yah, if my dad is back from work already, then I can use his car to bring the tb loots to our meeting place.
 
My boss &amp; colleague went to bkk today and bkk is oso 1 of the infected places. My colleage has bought N95 masks with her and was prepared to wear it on plane. Not sure abt boss .. though i think as a japanese, they are quite civic minded enough to wear a mask as well.

But dunno if they will quarantine themselves after coming back or not.
 
pegsfur
Thailand is an infected country, even those students / teachers who went to Batam will have to stay out of school for 7 days...
If they dont quarantine themselves, then you got to wear mask to work lor.
sad.gif
 
kiki,

So wat is he supposed to do?
happy.gif


My hubby kept thinking that we have to check in to hospital when edd is near, and wait in hopsital to pop. I told him no lah.... only check in when in labour mah. He still dun quite believe and kept asking got time meh?
 
kiki, you reminded me - MP5 player &amp; a shawl.
Hubby not staying overnight so don't need jacket &amp; he is not afraid of cold; is hot that he cannot stand. I remembered when i delivered my girl, he is also sweating in the labour room.
