My Comfort Food - meesua anytime

[Froggy]

I started living overseas 11 years ago, first posting was 1 year in Hong Kong, back for a year then another year in Shanghai and about 7 years ago came to Bangkok and now between Bangkok and Jakarta. All this time while overseas over long period of time I always pack a kilo of hand made meesua with me from Singapore. I love to eat meesua because I find its my comfort food, something very close to home and of course meesua being very easy to prepare helps.

Like yesterday at 3pm felt hungry just need to go into the fridge to look around saw a bowl of cordyceps and ginseng chicken soup decided to just throw some meesua in and taadaa have chicken meesua with Chinese TCM jia-por

And this morning wanted a very hot breakfast, just throw some port into water and then some meesua taadaa I have nice breakfast

Always think of home and mom when I eat meesua.

Wondering if anyone reading this care to share your comfort food.

Mine are fish soup with rice and teochew porridge with a few simple dishes like egg (salted, braised or chye por), chye buay, minced pork, fish cake, etc.

Meesua is not bad too, with fish slices can be very tasty and comforting.

Try not to eat too much innards with meesua, including kidney and liver.

I always have the impression that meesua is for those old people since the only two person I knew who ate it are my grandparents.

sleaguepunter, bro another formula, cook the meesua in clear water, prepare another bowl and put like a large Chinese soup spoon of sesame oil in the bowl. Drain the meesua of water and put the meesua in the bowl and mix it. Its really good I assure, just meesua and sesame oil.

Comfort food for me is Mee Goreng. I like it with the cucumber and the cheap pink-colored ketchup at most sarabat stalls. Haven't tried the Maggi version yet.

Cheers!
