Apparently Amazon.com.au doesn't have the kindle cloud reader. my account used to be .com but now it is .com.au. how do i change it back? so i can purchase it on American store to then use kindle cloud reader.
When trying to purchase it while on Australian store, it will say 'I haven't got a reader associated with my account, please choose kindle for android etc'. Although when looking back at previous purchased books, i can open those in 'cloud reader'.
Try this link (might or might not work) and change your country to any address in the US.
If the above link doesn't work:
All I want is a good Indonesian style mee goreng recipe.
I try garlic, red curry paste, fried egg w/maggi seasoning, a little sambal, a splash of fish sauce, a splash of kecap manis, some prawns and chicken plus noodles and some greens.
But I still can't get it quite right. What am I missing?
Oh JV, you really should get a life.
No dinner invite for JV.
haha i found it funny
Classic JV…..
it never turns out like the stores :(
need that msg
I think you have to have somebody else make it and serve it to you to get full enjoyment. When you cook it yourself and prep everything and taste all the stages etc the wow factor doesnt happen.
Kind of like how bread rolls always taste better in a restaurant.
Agree with you. With some dishes I cook I don't fully enjoy compared to when cooked by someone else.
my problem is im never hungry when i finish making something… and if my wife makes it, she takes far too many 'artistic license' decisions and stops following the recipe…
she takes far too many 'artistic license' decisions and stops following the recipe…
Ha ha… So true… Why can't women follow recipes ?
lets hope for jv's sake an 'artistic license' is the only one she has…..
MSG is cheap.
lol
just get an Indonesian wife/hubby! :P
if that's your thing then why not!? :)
like this ?
it could be a whole new experience every nite depending which side of the bed you choose to sleep on i guess… and they say a change is as good as a holiday
Finally…… he came out
Don't add fish sauce! Indonesians don't usually cook with fish sauce. Use oyster sauce instead, try it and see how it goes. My mum never uses curry paste in her Mee goreng either. And oh, don't forget to add some bean sprouts ;)
Have you tried Manu's Mee Goreng ?

Everyone knows the French make the best Mee Goreng…
I don't know where you got this recipe from, find a new one on google.
- no maggi; using dark soy sauce instead (not required, it's only make your food darker)
- no fish sauce; as you already put kecap manis(soy sauce)
- no red curry paste; using Sambal oelek instead (or ginger & chilli)
Correct…all those ingredients are for malaysian style. Indonesian mie (not mee) goreng never use them.
Thanks guys. I will give it a try.
Late 2c: Um…mebbe you're missing curry leaves? Unique flavour/smell, you won't notice it's there but you'll notice when it's not. I know Malaysians and Indians use the leaves, not sure about our northern coveters.

Have you got a really hot gas fire? And/or good wok?
Thanks
It makes me change my kindle store account to .au. How do I change it back to US store?
Thanks OP, had a quick look and will be visiting a few of the places recommended next month. ;)
Excellent! It seems this book will reveal the best places to find road kill. And how to cook it.
OP - now you've got me all hungry!
PS. Check out representative food from the USA - hot dog! heh.

Sometimes street food is like hot-dogs. Best not to know how it is made.

Almost downloaded iTunes virus before I realised that it was also free in Amazon- yes, my fault.
