It was a little nerve wrecking trying to make beef rendang for the first time for a big party! Fortunately, it turned out pretty nice. A little spicy but good nonetheless. Cooked in th slow cooker for 10 hour and I was able to re-tweak it this morning, I'm hoping that the next time I make a smaller batch, I will be able to perfect this dish.
What more can one ask for then a satisfying bowl of mee siam... YUM!!!

It was absolutely delicious but I will admit, a little creepy - not that it stopped me from eating lol. The fish stayed alive for another good 30 mins! I wonder... if you let it back into the water, would it swim and stay alive?!
