Kimchi Fried Rice with luncheon meat cooked with the Electric Lunch Box

First time I making Kimchi Fried Rice using the electric lunch box.

Was surprised it turned out to be delicious and tasty. I thought it would end up soggy and sour but I was wrong.

Bought the packet of cut kimchi from supermarket. I used about half the packet and mixed with leftover rice and some luncheon meat. Added some light soya sauce and sesame oil for flavour. Was real good and yummy. Best serve hot when done.

Old Cucumber soup with carrots using the thermal cooker pot

So excited to use my new Thermal Cooker Pot, is slightly bigger than my old thermal cooker pot which means I can add more ingredients to the pot to make delicious soup.

This time I make Old Cucumber Soup with carrots, I did not have to add any seasoning as all the ingredients make the soup very tasty.

Ingredients

300 to 400 gm Pork ribs

300 to 400 gm old cucumber

1 carrot

handful of dried scallops

handful of wolfberries (wash and soak)

few red dates (removed seeds)

dried squid

1200 ml water

Method

1. Wash and scrub old cucumber skin lightly (optional to cut away the skin if preferred)

2. Remove the seeds from the old cucumber and cut the old cucumber into slices

3. Cut the carrots diagonally 

4. Boil and blanch the pork ribs and wash them

5. Add all the ingredients and pork ribs into the thermal pot and add water to cover the ingredients (I added around 1200 ml of water)

6. Boil the soup on medium heat for about twenty minutes.

7. During the last few minutes, add the wolfberries

8. Remove and place the inner thermal pot into the outer thermal pot and covered both lids of the pot and leave them to cook on their own for about three hours.

9. Serve hot

Very useful thermal pot and the best of it, it saves electricity and gas. Monthly bill reduce a lot haha.

Unboxing my new 3.5 litres La Gourmet Thermal Cooker Pot

There's a promotion at NTUC Supermarket for La Gourmet Cookwares. Need to spend at least $30 to get one point and need 4 to 8 points to purchase the cookwares at cheaper prices.

As I need a bigger thermal cooker pot, this comes handy and moreover I can use my linkpoint to offet the purchase price somemore. 

I used 8 points to purchase the 3.5 litres thermal cooker pot and offset with my linkpoint, I only paid about $36 after offsetting. Great bargain.
