Dr Know-it-All !!

In year 2004 Hitz FM came out with a brilliant program called "The Adventure of Dr Know-it-all". The program was basically encourage the listeners to learn & know more about history in a very funny manner. I still remember some of the topics were, The history of Refrigerator & Freezer, The Bikini, Cell phone & etc.

I like fun learning...but sometimes what you have been taught may not be true. Some maybe Taboos or some maybe you have learned it from the wrong person & at the wrong time. The classic two examples that i can relate to were :

1) Nasi Goreng Pattaya (Pattaya Fried Rice)
It is one of the popular mamak food in Malaysia with Fried rice wrapped with a thin layer of fried egg. I would say many Malaysian thought it was originated from Pattaya, so do I. It was later that i found out there is no such thing in Pattaya.

2) Spaghetti Balognese
Haha...this one i just found out recently via AFC (Asian Food Channel). Spaghetti Balognese is not from Balogna nor from Italy!!! Even though Balognese Sauce is very famous dish in Italy. I was amused knowing that I believed the wrong stuff all these while.

Hmm.... How many more stuff that i know of are not the actual facts, I wonder????!!! ;p

Recipe

(looks good??? A bit pinkish though.. ;p)

I've a bottle of Red Grain Wine in the fridge for quite awhile. Last week I decided to cook something with it. Red Grain Wine normally use for Fook Chow ppl to cook Vermicelli soup; but since i wanted a quick meal, within budget & explore new recipe at the same time, i op for rice instead. Thank God...haha..taste turned out not bad (at least to me!! ;p)

The pot of rice only cost me RM5.70 & able to serve for 3meals..Great isnt it?! The 1st meal, i ate it as it is. On 2nd meal, I fried onion egg & ate with it. For the 3rd meal, I boiled vege. It sure fun & healthy at the same time.

The photo below showing Louis watching me eating the rice...haha. Isnt he cute?!
