Coconut Pancake aka Lempeng Kelapa

Assalamualaikum and good day all,

I love this pancake aka. lempeng. In the northern part of the Peninsular (Malaysia), some call it PekNga. Sounds so weird isn't it? Well, it is actually a combination of 'temPEK di belaNGA'. See, how creative our ancestors are. Not to mention about all the creative dishes they have invented. Wow!!! Tak boleh celen (challenge) nih!!!!

Now, close your eyes, imagine yourself on a rainy morning. With hazy eyes, suddenly there's a smell of black coffee, triggering your nostril, followed by an appetizing scent of the fresh grated coconut. Hmmmmm ...... I am hungry again (baru sudah lunch nih!!!).


The Ingredients:

Approximately 6-7 table spoon of fresh grated coconut (preferably not an over riped coconut)
1 egg beaten
1 teaspoon Salt
1 1/2 cup Plain Water
Butter for baking on the pan


How To:
  1. Place the coconut in a bowl.
  2. Add egg, water and salt. Mix well.
  3. Heat the pan. Once heated, put a table spoon of butter.
  4. Scoop the mixture using medium size ladle onto the heated pan.
  5. Once brownish, turn to other side. Wait till brownish, and ready to serve.
I normally eat this with the fish curry, but my husband likes it with the brown sugar. Therefore, depends on your own taste bud. Most importantly, enjoy your food.



Cheerios! Wassalam.

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.
