Mee Rebus (I)

Mum finally mastered up enough courage to cook us the Mee Rebus again; reason?

It's grandfather birthday today, and as he is suffering from Arthritis - Gout which forbids him from the consumption of nuts in particular, he could not part take of the Mee Rebus sold at outside food store in which the addition of peanut to the cooking could not be specially reduced.

But alas, the taste of today's cooking was a far cry from our first try last year. We scratched our head for the rest of the day; trying to reason out the causes of our failure.

Where does the slight bitterness comes from? Why do we fail to bring out the fragrance? What did we not do as compared to our previous try? Every step was reviewed and we promised ourselves our next attempt would be a successful one :)

Nvertheless, the broth of spices and potatoes was devoured till the last drop by the next day.
