Happy Birthday Lee Shean

I've been really busy recently, all the subjects are having major submissions, and my elective is particularly taxing, wish that it was easier. Anyway, having forcefully indulging in books of literature and theory for almost a week, I rreckon it is time to have a break, and cook something special, for a special occasion, it's my housemate's Birthday! So here we go, not a really hard dish I reckon...
