Scallops with Assorted Vegetables

My husband commented that my food having more and more western influence in them. And he wondered if I still can cook anything Chinese. -_-"





So, here's one Chinese dish with his favourite, Ginkgo Nut, in it. Brain food for you, dear. And in case you didn't notice, if I use the oven to cook, the food are usually more westernized and if I uses the wok more, then more Chinese. ^_-





I was trying to spend lesser cooking and washing time mah. So lots of cooking done using the oven. Now that the electrical bill has increased so much, you'll see me using gas more often.
