the Humble Yam Paste

i owed someone this dish long long time ago
asked mom to teach me how to do
.
so she taught me the ancient way
*cut yam into pieces
*steam them till tender
(ooh… ohh… i forgot to ask how long)
*put them into plastic bag
*add some sugar
*THEN use a GLASS BOTTLE to golek golek
*sweat* need loads of energy to golek ler
ended up i took out my proper tool
the Potato Masher!
(lucky i got bring back… tsk tsk tsk)
.
* stir in some Fried Shallot Oil
to replace lard (the traditional way)
tah-dah~
ah yan very first OO NEE!
blame the yam… not so smooth… :(
