Luckily my mom learnt a few dishes from her, and
this is one of my favourite dish. I have bad cravings for Mui Choy Kou Yok so I
gate crash my mom house to learn about this dish on last weekend afternoon.
Haha!
To prepare this dish is not tough, this is a very easy and simple dish to prepare especially when you are too busy to prepare a proper 3 dish 1 soup meal, this will be a very good choice. Just a bowl of rice, tadah! Gao dim!
