Wood and Alcohol Stove Test

https://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.856.754&rep=rep1&type=pdf

I was able to boil 250 g of water using 20 g of methylated spirit in 5 minutes using the pan cover. 
For kerosene,  it can 20 g for 1 kg of water. Or 5 g for 250 g of water.

Using a more accurate weighing,  248 g of water cannot be boiled by 10 cc of spirit, which weighs 8 g, burned for 3 minutes to heat the large pot. 

20cc burned for 5 mi utes but still not boiling.  To be safe,  need to use at least 40 cc of this spirit.

Masak Lemak Labu Merah (Pumpkin)

Image
Labu Merah Masak Lemak is my favourite food. It is best to cook it with salted fish. If no salted fish, dried prawn is a good alternative. The dried prawn is best crushed or ground. No need to crush salted fish. The pumpkin is best cooked until it is soft and some portion of the pumpkin mixing with the gravy. The gravy tastes better if it contains pumpkin flesh. Milk is a good substitute because it is readily available. It tastes delicious also. Just use crushed red unions and ginger. No need to use garlic. The garlic may spoil the taste of the pumpkin. https://youtu.be/pb9AzkVqRPk
