She needs a little bit of help to do some last minutes shopping so I have to do the driving for her. Since I have the time I cooked lunch for the children their favorite, Shrimp in Yellow Coconut Curry aka Masak Lomak Udang Nenas, Sweet Sour Chicken for Myraz who is allergic to seafood and my favorite Stir Fried String Beans with Red Curry Paste- Thai Style.

Saya jarang masak tengah hari, cuma kalau cuti dan ada kelapangan baru saya siapkan makanan tengah hari. Kebetulan hari ini dan esok saya bercuti untuk membuat persiapan Tyca maka hari ini ada sajian tengah hari. Saya masak lomak cili padi udang bersama nenas, Sweet Sur Chicken untuk Myraz yang tidak makan seafood dan Kacang Panjang goreng cili merah ala Thai. Walaupun kombinasi masak lomak tidak begitu kena dengan sweet sur chicken tetapi masak lomak dengan kacang panjang goreng cukup untuk membangkitkan selera.
