Stir Fry Cucumber with Vinegar
Better note it down somewhere before it extinct....
This is one of my all time favorite nyonya dish. Very little chance I get to eat this,...only see this dish during Chinese New Year ! I can't recall seeing this dish in any of the nyonya restaurants in Klang Valley.
Seems that traditional nyonya dishes are getting lesser and lesser...the only time I can really find all the dishes are during the Chinese festive season or some special occasions.
