Being a mother isn't an easy job, most of us struggle through out our daily basis task. And like everyone else, I'm trying my best to be the best mother I could be for my three children age 6, 3 and 14 months old.
Anyway, I'm grateful to be a mother and looking forward to a wonderful journey ahead:)
For today's menu, we are going to have lobster in black bean sauce. It's a busy food but since it is a Sunday, we should be okay, right?

Placed cleaned, cut lobster in large prep bowl. Add tapioca starch, 1 tbsp of sugar, half of chicken base cube and beaten egg. Mix it well together.
Wait for the oil to get hot and deep fry your mixed lobster for about 5-7 minutes (you wanna make sure the lobster is fully cook). Once that done, drain and set a side.
