Other night for dinner

Two of those dishes that I like to eat. Healthy, tasty, delicious, colourful, balanced. Pure goodness.
I kind of like to cook those because they combine the ingredients that I like a lot and it is fairly easy for me because I have cooked them so many times. 
I'm of course talking of my chicken, bok choy tofu dish and brocoli dish.Yummm

Fooyang

This is another typical Mauritian dish. It is called fooyang (forgive my spelling- I am writing the way it is pronounced). It is basically an omelette-like dish, with carrots, bamboo shoots, shiitake mushroom and seafood. I think that it is fairly easy to appreciate this plate. To create the dish I used seafood mix (you can find them from the deli). As for bamboo shoots, I use winter ones.

This is my cooked seafood mix

Meefoon soup (recipe)

Sometimes after having a copious meal, you would rather like your next meal to be light and healthy, not oily but tasty. Solution is to have a soup. However, I reckon that some soup are time consuming to make and other too rich. The dish I am proposing today is this: meefoon. It's a typical Mauritian dish, easy to prepare and cook. It is basically a combination of bok choy, shiitake mushroom, carrots and chicken, and rice noodle. It's usually accompanied with a fried egg. I can say it's almost oil-free except for the fried chicken and egg. Some people like to add soy sauce to give colour to the dish. Personally I am not fond of soy sauce because it contains lot of sodium and quite salty. So I usually have to avoid or put as little as possible where I can. Simple and delicious.

Recipe
Ingredients:
500g chicken breast, sliced and cooked
Half a pack of rice noodle
2 carrots, chopped (see picture)
10 shiitake mushroom (I used dried ones- tip- put them in hot water about 5 min to soften them and then sliced them)
1 bok choy, washed and chopped roughly
Soy sauce
A small amount of preserved chinese vegetable (see link for more info)
Salt

Method:
Put some water, about 2 litres in a heavy pan. Put your carrots, bok choy in until the water boils. Then add the preserved vegetables, the mushroom, and the chicken. Add soy sauce, and salt per tasting. After which add the rice noodle. Let simmer about 10 minutes until the noodle is tender and smooth.
Here you go, simple as it looks.
