stir fried mushrooms...
mushrooms, bean sprouts, carrots, onion & cabbage...
i don't understand why this dish is so popular in uk...

eggs, mixed vegetables & mushrooms...
actually i was trying to cook the japanese omelette 'okonomiyaki'...
but...
i'll try it again next time...


chilli salad...
red chillies, green chillies, red onion & soy sauce...
this is something i like when i'm having noodles...


oyster sauce fried broccoli...
broccoli, shiitake mushroom, onion & oyster sauce...
another typical chinese food that you can find on the restaurant menu...
by adding some 'fat choy' and baby abalone, it will become one of the classical chinese new year lucky dish...
