My birthday was fabulous! I made a Burmese dish called Kow Swe(pronounced cow sway).It is a dish, which in my opinion, is akin to rice and rasam. The base of the dish is noodles which are topped with a coconutty chicken or fish curry or veggie curry for the veggies. There should be plenty of gravy so that the noodles are floating in it. To bring out the flavor you then garnish it with lime, egg, onions, leeks, corriander(cilantro) and just about anything else you can think of. I think everyone enjoyed it. I was beginning to think that no one would stop eating, come 12 o' clock.:)
And then came the dreaded moment. .... MIDNIGHT!! Not because I had turned another year older but because there were a number of people like Hemant (Bhanjo) who have been threatening to make my birthday unforgettable. Apparently because I wasn't here last year. Anyway The eggs and cake were not too bad. Although i was caked in it.
And now for the Oscars........
