Comfort food

I have an exam tomorrow. I'm trying to study. So far, succeeding to do so in small quantities. I keep getting interrupted, by myself.

My recent excuse to leave the room is because my stomach was grumbling. So I decided to fix myself a rather complicated meal. Hah! Here's my masterpiece:




Okay, so maybe it isn't really that complicated. All you need is some flour and an egg. My friend calls it 'mee hoon kueh', I just call it 'tepung' (flour) because that's what my mom calls it.

It's pieces of dough in soup. The story with this dish is that back then, people were poor and didn't have much to eat so they ate this because it's filling and didn't require much ingredients. I really like it but making the dough requires some skill otherwise it'll turn up hard.



I'm done eating, as you can tell. Now to hit the books again. Or in my case, slides.
