Recycled food?

Well, CQ would term it as an engineered food or short-cuts - it's CQ's expertise in CQ's very own humble kitchen huhu. Anyway, it is more like you turn your last night's leftover food into something creative.

Here's an example. You have a plate of shredded prata or some called it murtabak. What would you do with it?


Another instance is the bread that the locals like to 'cecah' (dip) with satay's gravy. Then, what happen to this bowl of leftover bread?

Some would feed the birds ...and maybe some will send to the bin ehh - so before you throw food away, always have some thoughts of how people especially children in the third world countries are starving, malnourished and in order to live they will have to look for food in rubbish bins or dumping grounds.. if there are any!


With these two leftover food, CQ turned them into CQ's very own 'Norbi' dish ...yup! the same 'Norbi' that you can find in the menu list of C.A.M. Restaurant. Don't believe? Go check it out!

CQ does not know what 'Norbi' means but looking at the dish itself, it is more like fried prata huhu ...power of simplicity out of imagination! huh?

Ingredients
1 onion- chopped
3 garlic cloves -chopped
1 tomato - chopped
2tsps - chilli powder
2 limau kasturi - take the juice
1 tbsp of sweet black sauce
2 tbsps of chilli chicken rice - this gives the spicy tangy taste
3 eggs
2 tbsps of oil and salt to taste

Here's how you cook ...just like how CQ cooked this! The ingredients are almost 90% the same but the taste is so different. You can be more creative by adding roasted potatoes, leftover chickens pieces, seafood like crab, squid or anything that's edible of course huhu.

Try it before you comment ok! LOLS ..
