my 1st ever rendang - recipe from my mum :D. buat 1/2 kilo jer. i dont really fancy rendang, prefer kuah kacang daging. tapi malas nak buat kuah kacang nak blend2 kacang semua tuh.
my sultana cake from the four ingredients book. i never had confident baking a cake....salu tak sedap. tp smalam try gak buat sbb nak abis kan sultana. tgk cake mcm tak moist apa mesti tak sedap...but i kinda like it sbb tak manis sgt mcm the usual fruit cake...eheheheh...plus it is super easy
my kuih lopes....this time buat satu cawan beras pulut jerk. nak bentuk pun elok sket la dr yg buat tahun lepas. butthis time i use frozen shredded coconut...mcm kasar2 plak
ni 2-3 hari lepas punyer menu....ayam percik kelantanese style....dry sket ayam dia. and fresh watermelon juice!!! dearrr....nanti beli tembikai lagiiiiiii
ni jer la keria yg ruper dia senonoh sket utk photography shoot hari ni. i dunno why my keria is so lembek....dok tambah tepung pun dok lembek jugak lagi...punyer lah susah nak bentuk. so i roger my mum and ask about it....so the conclusion is...SALAHKAN SWEET POTATOES!!! ruper nyer ada org pun dah roger my mum becoz of this same problem....so umi kata...sweet potatoes sana lain kot. ayork...mcm mana nak buat belotok ni. anyway, nanti nak try beli sweet potatoes yg yellow plak. and by the way, saya masih tak pass pass lagi nak sira keria...ahahahha
and finally, boring makan nasik so today we had beef stew wif pastry....ala2 style beef pie kat dome. and seriously ppl, this beef stew is soooooo sooooo nice. first time buat and the moment we all makan...we were like.....woooooo!!! sedap nyer!!!! seriouslyyyyy!!! got this recipe from here...makaseh tuan punyer recipe.
how do u like ur apam balik? i prefer to have the thin, crispy and crunchy one....the one that have to be eaten immediately...if not...lembek!! but i couldnt get any recipe for that so buat je lah the usual thick one. dah dua kali buat and sangat puas hati. with lots of nuts and letak cream corn bukan setompok dua tompok but ratakan terus atas apam balik....ahahhaha. plus tabur sket milo....abis melimpah ruah my cream corn. but there is this one apam balik stall in putrajaya that sells apam balik tebal yg sedap....salu i order apam balik special that have extra cream corn. kalau tak setompok dua jer cream corn dia letak. sapa ada resipi apam balik nipis tu sila hulur2 yerrr....
pernah pegi fudcot and order portugis style fish or any types of seafood? sedap kan? so i tried preparing one yesterday....not bad eventho i miss out one of the ingredients...buah keras. so yesterday we had rice with ikan basa portugis style with mixed vege, ikan kering and the usual sambal hijooooooo
busy confirming quantities and AUD.....huuuuu. i prepared a list from home....double check it again at the shop with the pricing and everything...once done....gave the list to the usual macho guy. he is like my personal shopping assitant for already few times....i personally pick himbecauseof his big muscle. just gave him the list and he will do the rest!!!*ija..ko perasan dak mamat macho yg muscle dia tersembul keluar tuh*. should have taken some pixs with the macho guy. no more big muscle macho guy....no more sale!! bye bye shop!!!!
anyway,mr evil just got his new macro lens. his third...or is it 4th?? so he gave me some tutorial using the new lens....eeeiiii!!! i was at school from 2 to 9...and came back home for another round of tutorial!!! andatthe moment...i dont really like it!!!
the original beef kofta should be in the shape of a sausage...but it is not a crime to improvise the way u like it. we had this with our sausage rolls and goreng pisang....what a combination!!!
when i said i'm not good at preparing tradisional foods...this includes capati. i have to lipat my capati before amik gambor sbb my capati tak betol2 bulat...dah canai elok2 bila nak amik masuk pan terus jadi bentuk octagon lah hektagon lah. oh did i mention my 1st capati masuk tong sampah....tragis sangat!!!
i am more to western....lupa daratan sangat kan. my custard puffs....custard ada lebih hari tu....letak brown sugar and masuk oven bagi dia caramelised. i am sooo gonna miss the instant puff pastry here in sydney...mcm2 boleh buat
ni kalau umi tengok ni mesti dia kagum i pandai kelim karipap. this is for the whole gang at histoderm. almost every week mesti derang pepare something to bring to the office and without fail mesti diaorang tapaukan utk i jugak. and they really do respect our do's and dont's...like one time on my birthday, arlyn baked this one very delicious chocolate cake yg tak guna flour. supposedly kena letak liqour tp dia tak bubuh but still sedap giler. dulu i plan nak buat nasi lemak but mr evil kata leceh nak bawak. other than that i dunno what else to prepare because like i mention before....i am more to western so kuih2 tradisional ni mmg out. so instead i tempah 50 bijik karipap....opsssssssssss
this pix utk jamu mata org2 kat perth. this is from my brother's camera. introducing mat rapper generasi baru (ke elvis presley??) dgn pyjamas thomas
my very own roti john. if only i knew that preparing this meal is that easy...dah lama i buat. got the recipe from here. letak plenty of meat unlike some PARAM stall yg letak telur semata. but still it is not as good as roti john unan kat tmn warisan. mr evil kata ni leh bawak jamu budak2 kat opis and when they ask what is this? kata this is john's bread. knowing his officemate, surely they will ask back....why is it called john's bread? and it makes me wonder too....apsal nama dia roti john erk??
my mee bandung....below my expectation. terkurang udang kering kot
supposedly we have to fry all the nuts until golden brown tp i prefer mine dark brown (alasannnn terlebih goreng)
we had sambal daging wif telor plus sup cendawan and kentang. didnt take any pix of the soup...
and mini hotdog bbq pizza
the cucuq udang utara style makan ngan kuah pecal readymade. byk membazir...hahhaa....kenyang makan nasi ayam. anyway, i am so impress wif bancuhan cucuq udang itu the moment buh dalam kuali terus dia membesar bagai johan. resipi? sila google "cucur udang rangup"....got it from yani's fav website - recipe@mesranet.
reach home near to 2 and start doin my business in the kitchen. char kuew tiow with lots and lots of udang and kerang...ntah apa rasa tak tau lah. then i baked this fish cocktail...a recipe i got from this one book i just bought few days ago....4 ingredients. i bought both books. mmg super duper easy recipe dia...exactly 4 ingredients with just few lines of instructions. sista, u shud check out this book. and let morgan do the cooking...ihihihih
back home, mr evil dah start masak his favorite bawang kicap. arrived home around 5 and immediately bakar sotong (nasib baik ade abg george foreman) and buat pengat pisang.....bukak pose here in sydney is at 5.38pm ;)
its her final nite at my place and she was climbing...jumping..re-arranging the cushion at the sofa...and suddenly..."stuck....stuckk....stuckkk". not sure how she get herself stuck in that small space between the sofa and wall. maybe she's trying to do some experiment masuk celah tu and trying to climb back again to the sofa....ahahha...it is so freaking funny seeing her crying and yelling "stuckk...stuckk...stuckkk". we even let her 'stuck' for a lil while longer so that we can take this precious pix.
