【酸辣汤】Hot and Sour Soup

才稍微回暖了几天，这两天天气又变冷了。这种天气就想来一碗热热的汤，就做了这款酸辣汤。真是暖心又暖胃呢！

A bowl of hot soup feels so right in this kind of weather. So I made this hot and sour soup for lunch, it really warms the heart and stomach!

【柠檬饭】Lemon Rice

 

多年以前我在马来西亚一个学院工作，有个同事是南印度来的婆罗门，她每天的早饭一定是芭蕉叶裹着的酸奶饭，而午餐则是一定会有这个柠檬饭的。我也是那个时候第一次知道这款主食。

后来在印度居住的时候，也经常在餐厅里或者朋友家吃到这个饭。后来也学会了在家做这款米饭，因为它真是冷饭的好去处噢！

Many years ago, I worked in a college in Malaysia. One of my colleagues was a Brahmin from South India. The breakfast she brings to work must consist of yogurt rice wrapped in banana leave, and her lunch will be this lemon rice many a times. 

Later, when I lived in India, I often had this rice in the restaurants or at friends'.  I also learned to make this rice at home during my time in India, it is really a good way to turn left over white rice into a yummy staple!

【豆爽】Tao Suan

 

绿豆爽（Tao Suan）是一种潮汕甜品，也是常见的马来西亚/新加坡甜食。它是绿豆瓣做的一款甜羹，一般配上切成小段的油条或椰浆一起食用。也可以加上切碎的马蹄吃，口感更丰富。

Tao Suan is a type of Teochew dessert and a common sweet dish in Malaysian/Singaporean. 

It is a sweet soup made from split mung bean and is usually served with cut-up fried you tiao (Chinese Churro) or coconut milk. It can also be eaten with diced water chestnuts for a richer texture.
