7-Kinds Healthy Vegetable Dish

7-Kinds Healthy Vegetable Dish

One of the many dishes that I learned from my Mother when I was still young and single. At first, I was wondering why the dish named as 7-kinds. She simply replied, because this recipe are composed of 7 different vegetables, mixed together to make a healthy dish that will surely loves by many.

Actually from the time I learned to cooked this dish, this was just my third time to try it once again. Though it's so simple to prepare, we seldom considered this dish as vegetable dish during family occasions.

Last weekend, we celebrated my Father's 61st birthday, though it was not such a grand celebration, there were different set of menu planned and cooked for the day. It was my Mother who really manages the cooking preparation for the said event. Since only few hours were left before lunch time and the visitors are started coming, I had no choice but to take the courage to cook it for family friends and other visitors who will join us in celebrating my Father's special day.

My eldest daughter named Sophia Camille, helped me a lot during cooking preparation. I told her, we need to cook this dish right and delicious as possible. She positively replied, "Ok Mama, let's do it! People will surely like it!!!

When we started cooking, we were both not aware that there were people looking at us. Smiling while watching us cooking. They were so amazed on how Ate Camille actively did her part during preparation as well as the level of her interest in cooking. 


Later I realized that at early at her younger age, I need to start sharing to her those special recipes I personally learned from my Mother.
