nasi ambeng the sydney style....

ada org since last week teringin nak makan nasi ambeng. lama tak makan kot...setahun setgh or maybe more. but problem is i dunno how to prepare the serunding kelapa so instead i guna serunding daging biasa je. which lead to another problem stock dah abis kat halal butcher so have to wait for another week. so as promised by the uncle at the halal butcher, yesterday barulah ada....bought 2 tupperware of abon a.k.a serunding $10 each for 100gm. uncle siap buat lawak kata i tido malam termimpi2 abon....well not me but him!! another pack of abon is for our year-end project escapades....really looking fwd to it.

introducing, my nasi ambeng the sydney style.....


with ayam goreng, mee goreng, serunding daging and tumis suhun and tempe. terlupa satu bende that is 'gereh' a.k.a ikan kering.

tongue twister:
A skunk sat on a stump and thunk the stump stunk,
but the stump thunk the skunk stunk

my rendang....1st eva

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 overcooked egg tart wif my hideous looking kuih keria....

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



another of my fav from the bakery, portugis egg tart....terlarit sampai terovercooked my egg tart. tp belah dalam kuning elok...

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.

ayorkkk...esok nak masak apa ni wehhh.....and erk...congratulations to those yg dpt boss baru...congratulations kahhhh???

my creamy corn apam balik....

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

13th of Ramadhan

i was at school today from 11 to 3. 4 hrs of discussion....very tiring indeed. miss the 3.02 bus have to wait for the next bus to the beach at 3.30. arrive home near to 4 and darling evil prepare this from the 4 ingredients book....

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!!!

the recipe:
1/2 cup of crunchy peanut butter
2tsp of curry powder
1 egg
500g lean beef mince

warm peanut butter in the microwave on high for 30 seconds to soften. mix in curry powder and egg. add to mince and combine. roll mixture into sausage shapes using 1/2 cup of mixture for each kofta. grill or bbquntil cooked.

10th of Ramadhan

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

hari ni nak try buat capati plak....ada org dah demand2 dari kemarin. smalam dah call umi and ask her about the recipe....but knowing umi's style of cooking u wont be getting any exact measurement of everything. once a great cook, will always be a great cook. jgn kata capati, buat kuih makmur or kuih siput pun takdak measurement. bila la i nak terror mcm tu. anyway, sempat gak tanyer a few other recipes....next on list will be belotok and cucuq keria. belotok - buruk jer kan nama...but dont judge a kueh by its name. smalam dah beli 1kg of mince beef for this purpose. but of course tak guna semua. skang ni daging cincang is a must in our freezer. mcm2 boleh guna. pre-cooked it with black pepper and soy sauce with lot of diced onions and masuk freezer. org kedah nyer inti karipap rasa nyer mmg mostly cenggini.

p/s: smalam kat SBS ada half an hr documentary on DSAI, sungguh memalukan knowing that ppl from other countries are actually watching this. not good for foreign investment. and KJ...buruk nyer berjambang mcm tu.

9th Ramadhan

one fine day (many many days ago), mr evil came home with a recipe on a piece of paper. arlene gave it to him suggesting the recipe for us to try. it is Lebanese Nut Rice. it is a popular accompaniment to all kinds of roasts but it is especially good with roast lamb. but we had it without any roasted lamb....there's already lots of lamb mince in the rice itself. so today, while i was busy at school doing my draft paper for submission this monday, mr evil at home started doin the chicken stock and 'sauteing' the onions and lamb mince. he passed the baton the moment i reached home....and presenting...our lebanese nut rice

supposedly we have to fry all the nuts until golden brown tp i prefer mine dark brown (alasannnn terlebih goreng)

olive oil
1 onion, finely diced
150g lamb mince
650g rice
1 litre chicken stock
1 cinnamon stick
salt & pepper

to serve:
80g pine nuts
80g pistachio nuts
80g blanched whole almonds
olive oil
fresh corriander
ground cinnamon

heat the oil in a large heavy-based pot and saute the onion and lamb for abt 5 minutes, until onions is soft and the meat has browned. add the rice and boiling chicken stock. turn the heat down to simmer, add cinnamon stick, salt and pepper. cook until rice is tender.

fry the nuts separately in the olive oil until golden brown. to serve, turn the rice out and sprinkle with nuts, garnish with corriander and dust lightly with cinnamon.

of course we didnt follow exactly as per the instruction. masak jer dalam rice cooker. and we didnt have any ground cinnamon to complete the meal. but it turns out sedap!! we highly recommend this to all lamb lovers....

and we had bread pudding wif custard for our dessert. recipe custard ikut belakang kotak jerk.

p/s: teringat kat roti john tmn warisan, so esok nak buat roti john lah!!!

5th Ramadhan

we had sambal daging wif telor plus sup cendawan and kentang. didnt take any pix of the soup...

and mini hotdog bbq pizza

4th Ramadhan

sejak dpt the offer letter, ada org tuh tiba2 tekak western....so instead of having daging kicap, dia nak makan ayam bakar.


so we had ayam bakar+jagung rebus+salad+garlic bread as our main meal. plus jam tarts for dessert

3rd Ramadhan

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.

resipi nasi ayam madu is from here. i prepared my sambal cili using sos cili thai + cili api + halia + bwg putih + sikit sup ayam = masuk food processor....and zretttttttttttt.

as for kuih yg jolie kata polka dot tuh...it is actually Mars Bar Slice from my currently fav book.
recipe:
3 mars bars
4tbs butter plus a lil extra for greasing
4 cups rice bubble (i use 3 instead sbb evil deary bought puffed rice yg size dia double the size of rice bubbles)

melt mars bar and butter in microwave. then, add puffed rice and mixed well. press into lightly greased tray. masuk fridge. siap!! easy....chewy and taste something like kek batik!

friday ada submission so thursday masak sempoi jer la.
1. daging kicap
2. sayur cendawan
3. jam tarts
sliced mars bar tuh pun ada byk lagi.

2nd ramadhan...

didnt do much today. went to uni to collect mr evil's licence translation and then singgah oriental shop to get biji selasih...but out of stock!!! there goes my sirap selasih. wanted to get some laici and longan dalam tin....baca expiry date lama lagi end of 2009. tp siap ada tulis date packed which is in 2006...i was like...erkkkkkkkk....giler lama. mmg mcm tu ke? before this never even bother pun nak baca date packed. so i just put it back on the shelf....seriously....2006 is wayyyy too long for me. daun kucai pun dah abis kat kedai..malas nak lintas jalan and get it at another shop so just settle it with one pack of bean sprouts. i dont like bean sprouts...leceh ok nak buang satu2 ekor dia.....

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

i made the fish cocktail because i have some leftovers cornflakes from mainah recent visit. very easy...potong isi ikan in cubes....golek atas tepung...golek atas putih telur and last golek kat cornflakes crumbs. then bakar. rasa tak tau la mcm mana....but plan nak cicah ngan thai sweet chilli sauce.

and finally, ntah apa recipe i rekacipta using leftover sardines ngan roti....lagi sejam lagi ni.

p/s: tgh goreng kuew tiow tadi teringat plak kat cucur udang crunchy kat PARAM AS...dah google recipe...so esok nak buat cucur udang plak.

the final first ramadhan in sydney....

this will be our final ramadhan here in sydney....InsyaAllah (wink). and since monday is a full day class...i decided to ponteng my evening class....ehehhee. i had discussion at 1 so before heading to uni...goreng the ever crunchy tempe, marinate some sotong and masak nasi. finish my lecture at near to 3 then pi oriental shop to buy some groceries.

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 ;)

hari ni ingat nak buat kuew tiow goreng mamak style...akibat teringat2 kuew tiow abg megat masa m'sia fest baru ni

11 more weeks.....

this is my last semester.....wohooooo......another 11 more weeks to go before the semester ends. supposedly i only have one subject this sem, business caps. but because i drop one subject last semester because the lecturer sucks big time...so jadi la dua subject this sem. takper lah...as if like i got lot of things to do pun. anyway, best thing is....both subjects are on monday. one is from 2 to 5 while the otherone is 6 to 9. infact, business cap yg 2 to 5 tu pun bukan every week ada lecture because it is 100% project so more on discussion from time to time. so for the rest of the week...i'll be most of the time at home (hopefully) unless i got discussion for my project. mr evil cakap semester ni boleh la prepare lunch tetiap hari...we'll see....

sambal udang dgn telur. sedap giler. i hope in future i'm able to maintain the quality of the taste

homemade foods....

chilli crab

sambal terung and tempe

ikan masak cuka for my dad

rebung masak lemak kuning

everything....of course bukan i la yg masak...hehehe. on monday, masa mr evil still in kl...he smsed me asking whats for lunch. i cakap surprise. umi masak special utk u but of course he can guess...his favorite ikan masak lada. but i didnt take any pixs la plak. hiihihihih

my mum, when she cooks....tak kisah la hari ni ke...esok ke....tahun lepas ke or tahun depan...mesti maintain sama jer rasa dia. i kalau buat mihun goreng hailam 10 kali....10 kali jugak tak sama rasa....hmmmmmm

a nite out at auburn and lakemba

we went to alexandria again yesterday for my KAS shopping spree. memula plan nak pi on sunday sbb mcm malas nak kuar but then mr evil kuar statement "sure ke...i takut esok barang byk abis"...cheh...so kol 11 gitu baru kuar umah. kire lambat jugak lah sbb we need to change bus at e'garden and jalan jauh gak kat alexandria tuh. met Mr H yg tgh finalise his final shopping spree kot before going back for good this august (or is it july?). i bought a few more cushion covers together with their inner. yesterday...i was feeling green....go green for the environment. ihihihh. then we walk all the way to mascot and had our lunch at the thai rest there. tak best sgt. went back home rehat2 jap and 5pm arlene arrived to pick us up for our dinner get together in auburn. we first went to tarniza's hse in lakemba coz she's gonna drive us there. and voilaa.....jakun i sampai auburn....selang 1-2 kedai ada jer kedai turkish and most of it mmg almost fullhse. i'm gonna go there again...byk kedai yg menarik dah tutup smalam......easy access by train. plus smalam nak parking keter pun kena pusing 2-3 kali sbb ramai org.

this is what everybody had...mine is just single shish kebab....itupun gigih nak abih sbb ada org tuh pi order lamb shish kebab kat i. i do like lamb but i dont really love it as much as i love chicken. ihihihih.



then tarniza bawak tour kat lakemba town...menarik gak. dia tunjuk which rest yg worth goin for lunch or dinner. menarik2....again easy access by train. then dia bawak pi turkish sweet shop. wah!!! impress tgk sweet desserts display dia. we bought one plate of almost everything and proceed back to tarniza's house for late night coffee.

akibat dr smalam i am so pancitt...until today. plan nak pi HRC pun tak menjadi...next week maybe.
