Gaz cooked dinner on Tuesday, which happened to be Valentine's Day. We had long agreed that we will no longer mark the day with frivolous expenses such as sending expensive bouquets to the office, or buying each other unwanted gifts. We also gave up going to restaurants on the day, simply because we did not want to wait 1 hour between courses.
But now and then, Gaz comes up with surprises that still mark the occasion in his own way. On Tuesday, he cooked 5 dishes for us. There was steamed fish, steamed egg, braised chicken in soy sauce and stir fried vegetables.
He also made baked oysters with cheese and chilli mayo.
The baked oysters were delicious! Though the steamed egg was and always will be one of my favourite dishes. Gaz has really perfected this dish. It is silky smooth and fragrant. It is my all time comfort food. I often ask him how he cooks this dish and even though he explains it patiently each time, he knows he's stuck with making this dish forever.
Happy Valentine's and hope we have many more to come, just like those steamed eggs.
