1st home-cooked meal in our new home

This is the 1st home-cooked dinner after moving into our new home.

The menu consist of:
  • Smoked duck breast: The boys love this as it is very tender. It is pre-packed and all you need to do is to warm it up in the oven. But it don't taste like duck. More like smoked ham.
  • Watercress soup: I very much prefer to cook soup in a slow-cooker but since we don't have one yet, we had to make do with boiling it in a pot. As a result, the watercress is quite mushy.
  • Chilli clams: Saw some juicy clams in the supermarket and couldn't resist it (I love shellfishes). This is best fried in sambal chilli but since we are not fully-equipped, my domestic helper improvised with fresh chilli and garlic. Not as "shiok" but nonetheless, we finish the whole pot.

Why are we eating on a ottoman? Because we have not bought a dining set yet. :)
