Day 32 and home cooked fried udon

Today was day 32 of circuit breaker and there was an increase of 768 new cases being reported with 10 cases from the community. Sighz....still the same
Total cases is now 21707 and 20 deaths. 
I did not stepped out of the house at all except to take my dog for a walk for about 5-10mins. Saw a guy half walking half jogging in slippers and staring at his phone at my house downstairs without a mask on. Just becoz it’s ok not to wear a mask when jogging, some ppl seems to take advantage of that fact to go out without a mask. Ya, sure....I can totally understand the need to take a walk ouside and breath some fresh air but at least put on some proper jogging gears. The act is too obvious.


Today’s dinner is home cooked fried udon and I’m the chef. Being researching for this recipe and fine tuning it to use on thermomix. It looked and taste just like hokkien mee. It’s not bad but think I think to reduce the amount of liquid in the dish as it was swimming in a pool of brown gravy. Hubby liked it v much.
Here’s the improvised recipe. Enjoy~😊
