NAVA'S ZEN

Belanga? How familiar!! Day in day out noisily  I roll the belanga/pots in my kitchen, and this Belanga in Empire Shopping Gallery I have been told rolls our wonderful selection of Kelantanese cuisine. I didn't stumble upon  Belanga only on this day, in fact, I have passed by a number of times while shopping in this quite a popular mall.

Basically, it's our style to our cooking right? Unless, you have a different opinion ( Char Kway Teow , Chinese Vegetarian Noodle Soup & Spicy Thai Noodles )? For me personally, I like to cook as I like. Whatever ingredients and however and not necessarily we must follow recipes step by step, line by line or ingredients by ingredients ( Thai Mee Hoon Kerabu & Lamb Spaghetti ). Not for home cooking though. As long as we are satisfied and its a fulfilling tasty dish, we should be proud right? I know. So, whats the story to this my style Hakka Noodles. Actually, to tell you the truth, there is no story. Hakka Noodles or thick yellow egg noodles stir fried alongside seafood, kai lan, dark soy sauce and light soy sauce, of cours
