Mushrooms could cut breast cancer rate

Mushrooms and green tea could help halve the risk of breast cancer according to newly released research.





An Australian research study, just published in the International Journal of Cancer, has revealed that 10 grams of mushrooms - less than one button mushroom - per day can protect against breast cancer.

The research found that additional protection was also provided by green tea.

For details, please go to the link.

Now, for the delicious part.

Well, I used to make the mushroom soup with the recipe given by my sister. It is slightly different from Jeni's. That is why I am keeping this recipe so that I could try it one day (bila tuh? ... bila rajin lah ye...)

http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Cream-of-Mushroom-Soup-I/Detail.aspx

5 cawan cendawan butang segar
1 1/2 cawan stok ayam (Saya gunakan 1 kiub ayam + air)
1/2 cawan bawang cincang
1/8 sdt thyme kering (Saya tak letak)
3 sdb mentega
3 sdb tepung gandum (kalau tak cukup pekat boleh tambah lagi)
1/4 sdt garam
1/4 sdt serbuk lada hitam
1 cawan half-and-half (saya gunakan 1/2 cawan susu segar + 1/2 cawan whip cream)

Cara

  1. Masukkan cendawan, stok ayam, bawang dan thyme dan periuk dan rebus selama hingga cendawan empuk.
  2. Setelah empuk masukkan dalam food processor atau blender, kisar tapi jangan sampai hancur cendawan tu. Biar nampak chunky2 sikit.
  3. Dalam periuk lain, cairkan mentega dan masukkan tepung. Kacau campuran tersebut sehingga sebati. Masukkan campuran susu segar dan whip cream, garam, lada hitam dan campuran cendawan yang dikisar tadi. Boleh masukkan leek dan extra slice mushroom jika suka.
  4. Kacau selalu sehingga mencapai kepekatan yang dikehendaki.
  5. Siap untuk dimakan.

Kebab

Good morning!!!! Let's make a different today. (At least for my kitchen). Done with cereals, nasi lemak, lempeng or mee goreng, lets have something different this morning. Considering the kids only had something light for their dinner last nite, I resort to making an instant kebab!! Mmmm .... Amacam? Terliur tak? Well, very easy to prepare. I used all the instant ingredients. Onion - diced Ayamas Chicken burger - suitable for grilling, defrost and sliced (do not take too long to defrost it as it is difficult to slice it later) Olive - sliced Tomato - diced Olive oil Oppss... don't forget the bread - I use Gardenia's rolls. 1. Heat the pan with olive oil. 2. Fry the sliced chicken burger till cooked. 3. Add onion, tomato and olive. 4. Add seasonings - salt & pepper. 5. Cut the roll in the center vertically, but do not separate it. Apply butter onto it. 4. Toast it over the burning stove for a while (to replace charcoal burn). 5. Stuffed the chicken burger. 6. Garnish wit...

Nasi goreng ringkas

Assalamualaykum Rushing from office to our home. Need a quick fix for the dinner?  Fried rice is the simple answer. A scenario. You came home late. Rushing from the office and decided not to cook.  Both the husband and you had not had a hefty meal for lunch earlier. Therefore you opted to eat out at a Malay restaurant. What would you order? Fried rice? Well, why not make it yourself?  Use all the available ingredients and kitchen tools. How I made mine? The rice: Entering the house, I placed my things near the counter. I quickly walked to the kitchen. 1 cup of rice is sufficient for the two of us. Washed and rinsed it, I cooked it in a Noxxa pressure cooker for 7 minutes. At times, I cooked using the Tupperware rice cooker (cooked in the microwave) for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, I get the ingredients ready for my fried rice. 1 onion 3 garlics 1 handful of anchovies 2 red chillies Throw everything into the blender and blend it fin...

Cheese Cake

Tak sangka sungguh nak buat cheese cake ni. It came from K.Yan. She was telling how Sarah made cheese cake at Mak Long's house, and it excites me. I decided to make one. Luckily, hubby is so supportive to assist me in finding the ingredients (even though he doesnt like cheese). The ingredient: Philadelphia Cream Cheese Digestive Biscuit (for the base) Butter (leave at room temperature) 2 eggs Whipping cream Evaporated Milk to taste. (no exact measurement was given, as k.yan practically taste it before baking ;-)) Steps: 1. Blend the biscuits into crumbs. 2. Mix it with butter. Just enough butter is required to wet the biscuit. 3. Press onto a baking tray to form a base for the cheese cake. 4. Whip the cream cheese in the mixer till doubled. 5. Add whip cream, evaporated milk and eggs. 6. Pour onto the base. Bake in the oven. But .... as my microwave was malfunctioning, we opt to steam it and the result was superb and in fact better (according to kak yan la ...).
