This fried Black Pomfret (Parastromateus niger) has few bones which makes it easy to eat. The cauliflower, mum cooked it with leftover char siu that she likes to buy from the roast stall in Chong Pang. Steamed rice is a mixture of white and purple rice.

Dinner usually means mum’s home cooked food. Tonight’s dinner has a Fried Black Pomfret (Parastromateus niger), stir-fried Pea Shoots or large dou miao (大豆苗) with stall bought Pork & Shrimp Dumplings. Since the fish is quite big, I took less of the steamed white rice.

My dinner tonight is a whole Fried Black Pomfret (Parastromateus niger) with a medley of stir-fried vegetables. We got celery, cabbage, bamboo shoot, tomato, pork and prawn in there to go with the white rice.

For tonight’s dinner, a whole fried Black Pomfret (黑鲳) minus the head part and leftover Stewed Dried Bamboo Shoots. Even though the preparation for the latter is a long process, once cooked you can eat it for quite a few days as the longer you reheat, the better tasting it gets.

I actually preferred Garlic Chives (青龙菜) with bean sprouts stir-fry but sis doesn’t like the latter. Mum added some minced pork and prawns to sweeten the vegetable. Two medium sized Black Pomfret (Parastromateus niger) with heads removed and pan-fried. Love the sweet and soft flesh of this fish.

At the same time, mum also cooked a pot of Pork Ribs Soup with Yong Tau Foo (酿豆腐) and baby carrots. To add extra sweetness to the soup, she added some dried scallops. That is all, time to dig in.

Tonight’s dinner, we got two headless fried Black Pomfret (Parastromateus niger) with a dish of mixed Broccoli & Cauliflower Stir-Fry with minced pork and tomato wedges. Mum usually buys the black pomfret because it is cheaper compared to the overfished white pomfret.
