Chicken Black Pepper

Aha! Cooking again.

Alhamdulillah, I am finally cooking again in my home sweet home, in my newly uplift kitchen. Alhamdulillah again.

Last Sunday(15th August 2010) was my first day doing a 'real' cooking for the family, especially for the berbuka. Since moving back into the house, there are so many things happened. Moved back-in in a flash, kenduri, I fell sick for almost 2 weeks (as usual, especially when I am very tired), went to Dungun for the Programming and Multimedia Competition, and followed by taking care of Sabrina who was admitted to a medical center. Fuhhh! What a hapenings.

Sabrina was discharged on Friday (13th August), not enough time for cooking, Saturday, the cabinet team was busy installing the kitchen cabinet (stove off again...), only Sunday I started a 'real' cooking for the break fast.

But, chicken black pepper wasn't the menu for Sunday (I forgot what I cooked that day, getting old already - hey! its my birthday today, memang dah makin tua). This is what we had for berbuka yesterday. Ayah asked ibu to make something that the kids would want to eat as everybody is not feeling very well, therefore no appetite. Hmmm... what could it be? Masak kicap? Too often. Aha! Instead of beef black pepper, let's change to chicken black pepper, and I know Hakim normally likes it.

The recipe

Chicken cut into small parts
Ginger - sliced
Garlic and onion - diced
Carrot
Onion - sliced (for decoration later)
Spring onion
Tomato
Black pepper (grounded coarsely + bottled)
Salt
Corn flour that has been mixed with water (to thicken the gravy)


How to:
1. Fry the sliced ginger, and the diced garlic and onion till fragrant.
2. Add chicken and fry till cooked.
3. Add carrot.
4. Pour in the black pepper (to your taste)
5. Add some water (as my kids like the gravy, mine is a bit watery)
6. When everything is cooked, pour the corn flour
7. Add the decorative items.

And ready to be served.

Oppss ... sorry no photo. Not enough time to snap.

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

Masak lemak Daun Kaduk

Assalamualaikum Pokok kaduk tumbuh membiak di sekitar rumahku dengan suburnya. Adakalanya terpaksa dicantas buang kerana telah menyesakkan pandangan. Tertanya-tanya juga apa lagi yang boleh dibuat dengan daun kaduk ni. Kata pepatah, "Malu bertanya sesat jalan". Dalam bersembang-sembang bersama rakan sepejabat mengenai pokok-pokok herba ni, beliau mencadangkan untuk buat masak lemak daun kaduk, Sedap, katanya. Well, why not? Inilah hasilnya. Caranya: Balik dari pejabat, aku memetik beberapa helai daun kaduk (sebab ini peringkat percubaan makanya tak boleh masak banyak, bimbang jadi pembaziran pulak). Ada la dalam 20 helai daun kaduk.  Dicuci bersih.  Kemudian dicelur. (Celur untuk mengurangkan baunya. Kalau OK dengan baunya, tidak perlu celur) Sementara tu, aku mula mengopek bawang merah dan putih.  2 biji Cili api dipatah-patahkan aje (sebab malas nak menumbuk) Seterusnya, rebuskan saja bawang, cili api, ikan bilis dan serbuk kunyit.
