Steamboat Potluck Party 2012

Last night, I went to my friend's house for her annual steamboat potluck party. I had been going to her potluck party every year since 2009. I blogged about it last year and also in 2010 and 2009.

This year, it coincided with the Chinese New Year so we had yee sang as well. Since it's a potluck party, I decided to contribute the yee sang with 2 other friends. We bought it from Sri Siam Restaurant in SS2.



OK, the yee sang did not exactly look appetizing but after we tossed and mixed all the ingredients, it looked yummy and delicious! This is my bowl of yee sang!



Unlike the normal steamboat where you dip the raw meat and vegetables into the boiling pot and take them out with chopsticks or ladles, my friend had ingeniously used skewers instead. This way is more hygienic and easier for us too!



Meat balls all neatly prepared by the host. We just need to dip them into the boiling pot.



More raw stuffs to be put into the steamboat.



There were prawns too but I forgot to take photos of them!

These are cooked meat balls ready to be eaten with some chili sauce.



A friend brought fried squids.



Another brought roast chicken.



The host also prepared for us a big plate of edamame beans - my favorite! I think I ate way too many edamame beans last night!



For desserts, we had konyaku jelly. Yum!



And we also had cakes bought from Australia Cake House in Sea Park, PJ if not mistaken. The chocolate cake was so delicious! (although the photo does not look it!)


I totally enjoyed myself at the potluck party. I will definitely go again next year if I'm invited again!

Important : Due to my post "2012 Feng Shui According To Joey Yap" being delayed, I need to inform those of you who practise feng shui that today, 6th Feb 2012 at 11.30am, it is highly recommended that you activate your NorthEast-1 sector of your home to attract wealth (except if you have rabbit in your Bazi Chart).

Everyday, about twice a day, I search your blog for Joey Yap's Fengshui forecast and am disappointed that it has not arrived.......I keep thinking you are tempting us to wait for it while going back to 'hit' on your blog.....but at the same time, you always end up making me very hungry after looking at the wonderful foods you portray in your blog. They are all very, very yummy.......may you continue to enjoy such good food for the rest of the year, but please, I hope you can use the next 2 days to finish off the Joey Yap forecast, as I can't wait to hear if it has more bad news as Lillian Too's had for me.

i like the skewers idea. will do it when i host a steamboat dinner. not so much of hygiene issue but we don't end up having over cooked balls or meats etc.

hygiene...my greatest fear is when someone takes a bite and realises something is not cooked enough and happily puts it back into the boiling pot. seen it before at the lok lok shops and a few unfortunate steamboat dinners with some pals (who obviously i never had another steamboat meal with:P)

You made me desperate enough to have a Yee Sang today, on Chap goh Mei, at the Ipoh Restaurant in Bangsar. It turned out to be very good in spite of price being very affordable, for just 2 of us! No pics unfortunately, as we forgot to take along our camera.......

Right now, at 9.30pm, the firecrackers are going full swing in Sg Chua, Kajang.
