I've playing Popeye lately, eating loads of spinach. This time I want 'em with crunchy fish and creamy sauce for contrast. ^_* Oh, I conveniently forgot that I am not supposed to eat anything crunchy yet...but what the heck, just another secret to keep from my doc.
I bet people keep naughty secrets from their docs all the time:
- I exercise daily (Doc: your heart rate doesn't say so)
- I only eat healthy stuff, lots of greens, no cheeseburgers, no fish and chips (Doc: your blood pressure surely disagreed with you)
- I haven't been near any spicy food for weeks now (Doc: I bet that's why your sore throat never got better)
Latest one I heard from my friend:
- I didn't eat anything wrong (her Chinese doctor: whatever you've eaten or done, YOU, yourself know best *or something to this effect* with very VERY skeptic tone)

So, on my recent visit to the doc:

Hi Rita! Cute post :)
ReplyDeleteI love fried fish.
Crunchy fish is the best...the Dr. would approve!
ReplyDeleteOh the fish looks so deliciously crunchy - yum!
ReplyDeleteNo! I absolutely forbid you from eating crunchy food! I want you to get better, not cheat the doctor. You're only cheating yourself.
ReplyDeleteEat the spinach only OK? Or don't coat or fry the fish. Steam.
GAsk your sous chef to make you congee, Rita. Nice and soft to slide down the throat.
ReplyDeletehi daphne, you are absolutely right, the inside part of the fish qualifies as soft ;p
ReplyDeletesig, keke...if only i found it funny when i felt sore throat haha...(touch wood)
yozora...maybe you can make yours even more crunchy?
elsye, ini sih versi gampang, sembarangan aza hehe
hi maryann, ehm in fact, i love anything fried
hi peter, yeah doctor would approve to punish me by locking me up and feeding me congee non stop (oh...this really scares me)
cate, ehm yes...and crunchy isnt good for me :(
wand-chop, yeah...i cudn't resist, i gave in to temptation...food (especially crunchy ones) is really my weakness
hi kc, excellent idea! but i am sure sous chef will just go and buy pork & century eggs congee hehe
That looks delicious, the fish looks so yummy and golden brown!
ReplyDeleteThat looks tasty. I like the crispy fried fish and creamed spinach combo.
ReplyDeleteYour fish fillets sure look very crunchy! *crunch crunch*
ReplyDeleteThe crunchy fish fillets sounds so good! Done almost like what I get in frozen fish fillets (birdeye's brand fish fingers!
