Low-carb meal idea: Mediterranean Fish Soup
I saw this healthy recipe for Mediterranean Fish Soup in a recipe book while holidaying and just knew I had to give it a try. I like cooking with white fish and most of the time just grill or bake them as a whole fillet, served with lemon, side veggies and potatoes. Having “graduated” to buying better quality fish nowadays, I thought it’ll be a good time to try cooking some chunky fish in soup. I’m not talking about Fish Soup Bee Hoon, although I love cooking it too!
Teochew Noodles 潮州面条
I originally bought these flat yellow noodles because I wanted to cook KL-Style Hokkien Mee. I decided instead to cook a much simpler dish of Teochew dry noodles. These noodles were easy to prepare but so very full of flavour, with fragrant dried shrimps, crunchy bean sprouts, spring onions and must-have fish sauce bringing simplicity to the next level. *Tip: You can also add fishballs ala fishball noodles! And if you wish, add just a bit of sambal and mix well for a more spicy kick. I don’t know about you, but I always feel a higher sense of accomplishment when I can replicate a hawker dish, and adding fishballs…
