Bergedil ayam daun cekur

Assalamualaikum,

Terasa macam nak makan bergedil. Kalau makan di kedai makan/ restoran, harganya boleh tahan mahalnya. Yup... the making may not sound so simple. It requires few steps. But the results... insha Allah ... satisfying.

Chicken breast is not a favourite in the house. Nobody would want to eat the most healthiest part of the chicken (to me .. hihihi). Most of the time, the chicken breast will turn to be used as condimetns in fried rice, mee or kuetiao, or even for spaghetti sauce.

Making 'bergedil' out of the chicken breast is a good solution. I dug my fridge, trying to find enough ingredients to make 'bergedil' ... one item is missing ... the cilantro. Cilantro will give flavors to the 'bergedil'. My cognitive skills quickly recommended another flavor --- the Cekur. And went to my tiny herb garden and dug some cekur out of a pot.



Cekur or some people may call it kenchur is from the ginger family. The scientific name for it is  Kaempferia galanga Linn. Cekur has strong aroma and full of health benefits especially for women. It is very famous in Javanese cuisine.

This is my recipe for the 'Bergedil ayam bersama Cekur'
2 chicken breast - minced
1 potato - boiled and mashed
3 leaves of cekur - thinly sliced
Salt & pepper
1 Egg - for coating before frying
Cooking oil for frying.

How:
1. Put all the ingredients in bowl. Mix well.
2. Form the mixture into small balls. Flatten it. (regularly wet your hands with water or oil so that the mixture do not stuck to your palms)
3. Heat the cooking oil.
4. Coat the bergedil with the egg by dipping it into the egg and immediately transer it into the heated cooking oil.
5. Fry till golden brown.

Whallah!!! Alhamdulillah ... so tasty. 
Some creativity helps brighten the day. Subhanallah.

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.
