Dedicated this recipe to my grandma from whom I learned basic cooking. This is a 20 year old recipe I remember she cooked for me only. Fortunately I used to help her pound the ingredients, that's why this recipe is still in my memory. Being her last descendant, it will be of great merit to impart this recipe to everyone who loves curry.

Love to cook and experiment with new cooking methods in addition to traditional stir fry recipes. Living in Singapore, a fantastic place to eat and experience (almost) every kind of cuisine in the world. There are 5 hawker center within my current neighborhood, I would go there for quick meal if I lazy to cook. My favorite food in hawker center include chicken rice, yong tau foo, lor mee, wanton mee, nasi lemak, cai png, bak chor mee, laksa, herbal mutton soup, ah balling, fried kway teow, curry chicken noodle, kopi O.
