Feeling Under the Weather…
February 7th, 2007Recipes, 30-Minute Meals, Recipes, Eating Light, Recipes28 CommentsI’ve been feeling unwell since Monday and lost much of my appetite. My severe headache is killing me, my throat is scratchy, I have blocked nose and can’t breathe. Arrrghhh!
Luckily this bowl of steaming hot beehoon/vermicelli soup came to my rescue. Unlike my mother’s common belief that porridge/congee has magic healing power when one is sick, I opted for this dish instead. Ill or healthy, I’ve got to have my shrimp fix. A couple of head-on shrimps, a few dried shitake mushrooms, some fish balls plus the ultimate chili soy sauce, I think I am already feeling better.

OH dear, you better take care ok!
I’m sure with that boost of chilli, it will clear up your blocked nose. How come all of you under the weather at the same time, buddingcook, wandering chopsticks, now you?
Get well soon, and gear up for CNY!
Take care.
Take good care and drink more water. Oohh..and rest more too.
Congee is the true healing food! Congee is king!
But your noodles look tasty too. Get well soon.
for a minute ago, I thought those shitakes were pork blood cubes hehe, ok, have some ham yu ham taan chook, pop somemore Vit C’s and sleep well :)
Alamak, not feeling well also cook ah??? Some more such a lovely bowl of noodles you have there! ;O)Get well soon!
aiya, i am also suffering the same symptoms. nose blocked, itchy throat, and massive headache caused by the clogged sinuses. when i blow my nose, or go poo poo, my head feels like exploding. summore going off to kuching tomorrow for friends wedding, and head feels like a ton.
you passed me the virus via blog izzit???
dis one they call pre Xcitement syndrome….watch out !
i suppose anything that is steamy hot and soupy is good for healing! (esp. the blocked nose).
hope you are feeling much better now, BY.
Just wonderful !!! When I’m ill, I will come to you and you will cook me this recipe, is it ok ??? Oh please say: yes, claude ;-) Just perfect, as always on your blog ;-)

It seems like everyone is getting sick! Hope I don’t catch it, but if I do, I think this recipe will nurse me back to health. The chili especially.
BTW, it’s a testament to how good a cook you are that you make such elaborate dishes, even when you’re sick. Reminds me of that scene from the movie Tampopo, when the dying woman uses her last breath to cook her family a final meal.
hope you feel better. amazing you can cook such good looking food even when you are sick! :D
Like Malaysian Penicillin- Malaysiacillin? Feel better.

I’m going to have you come over next time I get sick. Get well soon!
Hey feel better RM! It’s that time of year!!! Cold outside and warm inside … when you’re in and out of those kind of temp. sure to get sick!!!
Your soup looks delicious! When I am under the weather! I always love spicy stuff!
Get Well soon!!!
The steam from the hot broth will definitely clear your blocked nose! Do get better soon. CNY is just around the corner. Lots of goodies to eat!
Oh Dear…Looks like a stuffy nose pandemic is spreading via blogs! FBB, you may have caught it from me ;)
You get some rest gurl. Have to attned a party next week remember?
Get well soon! I’m also troubled with sore throat, blocked nose and coughing for the past week!
Hope you will feel better soon. This dish looks absolutely delicious!
Oh, no! I got sick on Monday too with the same symptoms. Did I you get me sick, or did I get you sick? Here’s to feeling miserable together. :(
Yes, get lots of rest, and make sure that other people cook for you! Hope you feel better soon Bee.

Hey all –
You guys are so sweet! :)

Ha ha ha…maybe reading certain comments here and there have helped you recover faster. As they say, “Laughter is the best medicine!” LOL ;o)
Hope you are feeling much better. I am with you…noodle soup especially beehoon noodle soup rules my world. I always say, if I can only eat one meal for the rest of my life, it would be noodle soup.
Although, I must say congee is amazing for a very dreadful hangover. Even my very gwai-lo husband has succumbed to the healing powers of congee.
WMW – Yes, sick or not, I need my dose of comments love. :P
Karen – thanks for your kind regards, I am feeling better now. Ooooh, will have to try it out the next time I have a hangover. ;P
This beehoon soup sure is good when one is feeling under the weather. I like the sound of your beehoon soup recipe and will give it a try soon.
