Wm made a huge vat of fish soup, with tofu (they turned holey after being boiled for many hours), salted mustard leaves, tomatoes, carrots, orange peel & ginger. She spent the entire morning making the soup - I think the most time went into frying the fish, then boiling them, straining and reboiling. (Wm, please correct the recipe or add anything which I've not included).
It was served with kueh teow, lots of quickly blanched still crunchy beansprouts and poached seaweed. Lots of pepper, diced spring onions, sliced ginger and freshly cut chilli with soy sauce on the side for those who wanted them.
It was DELICIOUS.
Especially for you, Sil, Fish Soup with Holey Tofu.
p.s My clever nephew, D, found the food feature in my camera. This explains why the above pics are sooooooo much clearer than ALL my earlier shots. Well done, D. He also gave me a quick tutorial on working with photoshop yesterday. Thanks, D!

Holey tofu!!! Jealous. So jealous.
Making tom yam soup tonight...nothing as elaborate, we use Knorr Tom Yam stock cubes heh heh. But would swap whole pot of tom yam with (non-holey)tofu and beancurd and fish and shitake for one bowl of fish soup with lots and lots of holey tofu...=(
your ma will surely make you a vat when you're home
