Fresh Chive Fried with Shrimp

Assalamualaikum,

Thinking of what to cook is not always interesting. At times we really ran out of idea. Browsing will sometimes help. Looking into the fridge for your stocks is another approach. Looking around your house could be another option.

The appetizing fresh chive fried with shrimps

I recently went around the house, into my Herbs Garden and found some chives ready to be harvested.

A quick search with the help of Mr Google found me with this interesting facts about chive:
As a family of garlic and onion, chives is high in allicin. It also contain anti-cancer properties, and help in digestion. It is also a source of supplies for many vitamins and minerals such as potassium, calcium, beta-carotene, folic acid and vitamin K.  

Amazing isn't it. Small but very beneficial to health. Yes, Allah has created everything for a purpose. Its up to us to cleverly appreciate it.

As for me, I found myself some fresh shrimp and tofu in my stock, I prepared this delicious dish for lunch.

Ingredients:
Onion
Red peppers
A handful stalk of chives cut into about 1 inch apart
Shrimps
1 square tofu (fried)
Salt to taste

How to:
I saute the onion, add the peppers and shrimps.
Later, add in the tofu and fresh chives.
A sprinkle of water and add salt to taste.

Whalla! It's ready for a plate.

Wassalam.

Kebab

Garnish wit...

Assalamualaikum Pokok kaduk tumbuh membiak di sekitar rumahku dengan suburnya. Adakalanya terpaksa dicantas buang kerana telah menyesakkan pandangan.

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. ...
