western... but not so western...

It's not often that I cook western food, and when my kids requested for a burger dinner, I did it a mish-mash version :-)

I cooked exactly like how I do usually... Eastern style sweet & sour pork chops (sorry, non-halal) and carrots and french beans.

Instead of serving the food with rice in bowls, I served them with burger buns on plates (this was QQ's portion). Hee hee... kind of cheating yeah :-)

And washed down the meal in a Chinese soup of ribs, lotus root, corn and carrot :-)

Both my kids loved their meals :-). Here's my little munchkin enjoying hers. She couldn't scarf the burger into her mouth as is, so she ate the top bread half first and the rest later as an open sandwich. I was really happy that she polished the whole burger and all the vege! But she complained that she was toooo full afterwards, so she skipped the apples :-).
