The second season of E block supper has come to pass. For the approx. 50 of you who turned up, thanking you for supper-ing with us. Uh yes, the meal was prepared for the blockers and 'invaders', but do you know that some of the block comm members were already enjoying some of the dishes while preparing them? Actually we always do that, don't we? * grin… So for those who could not join us for whatever reason, you had missed out on some really great food! I heard someone say, "Hey, the Samosa's better than the restaurants'!" Indeed, the labour intensive job was proudly brought to you by Kai Lin (the one who came up with the recipe), Reuben, Jipson (who added too much salt initially which could make you "thirst to death", hehe), Zhuangli and myself. Kudos to the one who cooked the potato fillings! It was soooo awesome!! Believe me, I tried it and it was heavenly. And so I wouldn't be surprised if that was the most quickly whisked dish in a block supper ever! Oh then there was the potato salad which tasted as tantalizing... The fair trace of onions present in the dish truly spiced up the entire mouthful that I had gorged myself with. It tasted too good to be eaten any slower! The potatoes were well cooked and mashed (by Joanne and Geri), the ingredients were all in the right amounts… Oh boy, trust me, you can't ask for anything more in a simple dish like this salad. Extremely amazing. Did you guys notice some super brown-coloured waffles? Our very explorative Kok Pun added Milo powder into the waffle mix, which didn't give a very good texture to the waffles in the end. One of them even flowered like a butt- in Chinese we call it "pi gu kai hua"! But not all waffles turned out bad 'cause Fang Chee has a gift for making waffles… her first try was already perfect! And there were brownies in celebration of the birthdays for the October babies! I can remember vividly how Xiao Shuang and Nicholas were happily filling their tummies with their self-concocted invention of ice-cream cum brownies. They urged me to try it which I did after hesitation... …For those of you out there with a sweet tooth, this concoction is for you. Otherwise, don't try it! Watermelons, pasta and sugar-butter sandwiches were the additional dishes that we prepared… Thank you all block comm members (including those mentioned above, Lam, Ken Juin, Sien Long, Xifei ) who came down to whip up the wonderful treat for us all! With Love, Loraine (p.s. Thanks Loraine for this lovely post! ^^)
