One of Mother's favourite dishes

Brother Tai Hou came back for a visit from Mebourne. Sister Wan Lan treated us to durians and her very nice tomyam beehoon goreng, with bunga kantan (ginger flower) and kaffir lime leaves. While we were eating the beehoon, sister said that Mother would have loved the beehoon goreng. Yes, I recall one of Mother's favourite dishes was a nyonya recipe called perut ikan becaause of the combination of ginger flowers, kaffir lime leaves and daun kadok leaves, sliced finely and added to the many other ingredients. I remember Sister used to cook the dish for Mother once in a while.
