Sunday Temptation

Last Sunday, at Aeon I found another brand of (delicious) kimchi (made in China) but I forgot to snap photo. Next time.


I am very disappointed that Aeon no longer sells regular beef and beef trimmings.


These are not affordable to ordinary people like me. One slice like that costs upwards of RM90++.


These organic ones are no better. Haiz ..... 


Then I saw this poster. Spend & win a dream Europe trip. 


Ah! Haagen-Dazs ice cream.


Three new flavors - Macaron, Tiramisu and Churros.


I have tested myself a few times (after being hit by euphoric recall) and found that I don't enjoy ice cream anymore. So I was immune to these.

Besides, I have had Haagen-Dazs ice cream before but found the taste too rich/milky. So I did not like it. Maybe blame that on my unsophisticated taste? hah..hah..


My simple cooking. Pork belly bites and garlic in a stainless steel plate.


Put four pork belly slices on a wire rack and place it above the tray. Then air fried at 180C for 16 minutes.


End result.


Noms!


Topped with browned garlic which were cooked with the lard drippings. I ate these with kimchi. So so good!

  1. Your food looks mouthwatering delicious! And I am sorry you can no longer get the meat at an affordable price. :( I hope you will find another avenue. One of my blog followers, who lives in the U.S., gets meat delivered to her door from a company, she said the meat is very good and the price is decent. I wouldn't know if they deliver to your area in Malaysia or not, but please let me know if you want me to find out. I don't know the name of the place, but I can ask her.

    This quotation you are sharing is beautiful and very encouraging. Thank you. As far as ice cream goes, I do like it but I don't buy it. I am pre-diabetic and at 68 years old I am trying to watch my sugar. My favourite flavour is butterscotch. I may perhaps order a small soft vanilla ice cream cone from McDonald's once a year! LOL!

    1. Thank you! It is not likely that the meat delivery in USA delivers here. I once won a Butcher Box gift from Steak & Butter Gal (back in 2022) and sadly they do not deliver to Malaysia, so I accepted an alternative gift instead. But thanks for the thought. An ice cream once a year is very good practice LOL!

  2. Ah, your way of air-frying pork belly and garlic is perfect for my spouse. I still like to eat ice cream now and then but not so much anymore when my freezer is stocked up nicely with all sorts of ice cream. Hagen daaz is one of those luxury ice cream because of its rich creamy taste. I can't afford to eat Hagen daaz often. I am fine with its taste. Good that ice creams don't tempt U anymore. Healthier than way and can save ๐Ÿ’ฐ for beef too ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜Š

  5. As usual, I like your Pork Bellies meal with slightly charred garlic gloves and kimchi. And yes, I rarely eat ice cream too nowadays maybe once in 6 months or 3 months (but hor now that I am typing this, I am recalling the taste again lol!) Blame it on euphoric recall. I like your quotes and poster at the end. As usual, Enjoy, God Bless and Count Your blessings! See you tmr morning!

    2. Maybe hor. Cos my yearly health check up last year showed I do not have diabetes. My next yearly health check up is due end of this year.

    3. If you don't have diabetes that it is good news and hopefully your blood test results end of this year is also good. I am also due for a blood test end of this year.

  7. I recently read about the "fake ice cream" aka frozen confection, which is made with sugar and vegetable oil, and most of the cheaper price ice cream brands that I used to buy are frozen confection. >_<
