Croquette/ Korokke

I have corquette as my late lunch yesterday afternoon after I spent sometimes at MPH Bookstore, The Spring, Kuching.  I was having it as my lunch as it is because I never tried it out before and also there is a promotion for that week.

When my order was served, I found out, the look is ordinary, oily and taste oil too when I put into my mouth. I have to use some tissue papers to let the oil absorb to the tissue papers, else I might not finish with the order served.  Overall the croquette taste quite good just a bit oily.

After having the croquette, I tried to search about it online and found out this from Mr. Google ... "Korokke (Japanese: コロッケ) is the Japanese name for a deep fried dish originally related to a French dish, the croquette. It was introduced in the early 1900s. This dish is also popular in South Korea where it is typically sold in bakeries.

Korokke is made by mixing cooked chopped meat, seafood, or vegetables with mashed potato or white sauce, rolling it in wheat flour, eggs, andbreadcrumbs, then deep frying this until brown on the outside. Korokke are usually shaped like a flat patty. They are generally called (ingredient) Korokke. For example, those using beef would be called beef korokke, those using shrimp, ebi korokke, etc.. Those using white sauce may also be called Cream Korokke.
Korokke is often served with Tonkatsu worcestershire sauce and shredded cabbage.
Korokke can be eaten as is, and are sometimes sold wrapped in paper at stalls. They may also be used as a topping for other dishes. When sandwiched between two slices of bread, they are called Korokke pan (pan being bread in Japanese)."

Chicken Rice






Yesterday my colleague brought me for lunch at a shop behind Hock Lee Building.  According to her, that is one of the famous shop serving nice chicken rice.  The photos show the chicken rice for two.

What is the special of the chicken rice until everyone is willing to queue up to wait for seat and wait patiently for the chicken or char siew to be served?  I can say is the sambal make it special and also kuah curry.  Tht chicken rice shop serve sambal chilli and sambal belacan blended from cili padi.  The rice is nice too.  I can have the rice without chicken or char siew.

Kuching's Kampua Sibu's Taste



I am doing the 3 months attachment in Kuching and the 3 months attachment is lapse early this month but I am still stuck here.  I miss my hometown every much.  I was moving here and there for the pass 3 years, I started miss home cook, hometown food etc. That is why whenever I start to miss hometown food, I start to search for the food having similar aroma and taste like my hometown food.  During 3 months times in Kuching, I found a stall behind Public Bank Pending Branch offering nice kampua which is to my taste. Today I went there for my breakfast again… the taste is nice and I ordered kampua pok with bian shik together with one hot Milo as the starter of the day.
