It's soup day / myLot

Malaysia

July 20, 2021 5:33am CST

We received meat from lots of people today. It's apart of today's sacrifice celebration where people would share the meat that they sacrifice. It's not a lot but if lots of people give it, it will be a lot in the end. If you get what I am saying. Anyway, since we got bones as well, I decided to make soup. My aunt gave us rice as well so I don't need to cook rice or noodles to eat with the soup. I still have some left for other kind of dish.

I think so but we'll see. The customers keep pushing for the company to start operating despite still being in lockdown. I might return to the office soon.

That's true. Right now it's enough for around 2-3 dishes more.

In this country, it's usually cow, goat, lamb or buffalo. Buffalo is rare though.

@prinzcy Yes, simple, but filling. I sprinkle soy sauce on tofu, is all. But this evening, pastrami on sourdough with cheddar horseradish cheese, lettuce, fries and orange juice.

Yes, it's really good. Must be because the meat was fresh.

@prinzcy nothing beats like using fresh meats. Meats stored in the freezer for a long time does not taste good.

Soup looks great, mostly we have chicken soup with sweet corn and mutton as well. You are talking about Eid-Ul-Adha I guess

Yes, I was. I didn't add any veggie in this soup as I plan to reheat it multiple times. It's almost gone too. I would cook the rest of the meat tomorrow.
