Assalamualaikum .... Sambal lagi??? Sambal memang mudah dan ringkas. Ditambah pula dengan mulut ni yang sukakan kepedasan, menjadikan sambal memang dekat di hati. Untuk juadah tengahari yang sepantas kilat pada hari-hari Jumaat, sambal seringkali menjadi pilihan. Dan kali ini kita persembahkan Sambal Udang Kering bersama Dua Terung. Terung pipit (belanda) dan terus panjang. It's marvelous. Terus pipit ni boleh dikatakan hasilbumi yang 'petik dan masak' kerana pokoknya subur menghijau di bahagian depan rumah. Asal pokoknya tumbuh secara tidak sengaja, bila dialihkan ke tanah, Alhamdulillah ianya memberikan rezeki untuk kejiranan. Inilah yang dikatakan tidak sia-sia berbudi pada tanah. Better not blabbering too much. Now lets get down to cooking business. It's the recipe: The ingredients: (this is exactly how I did it) 1 handful of 'terung belanda' 1 brinjal (terung panjang) 1 table spoon of blended dried shrimp * 1 large onion (d

Assalamualaikum Good morning everybody. Let's have breakfast. It's simple pancake today. But i enjoyed it with the homemade strawberry compote. Alhamdulillah. After several blogwalks, I decided to try this recipe from the famous Cik Mat Gebu's Dapur Tanpa Sempadan. And as usual with my own measurement and fittings: 1 egg 1 teaspoon baking powder 1 cup plain flour some fresh milk to the correct consistency pinch of salt Simply add everything in a bowl to form a batter. Later, ladle it onto a non-stick frying pan. You can see it will start bubling. Flip it.  Wait till the other side is golden colour too then remove from the pan to your plate. Its delicious to enjoy it hot or cold. For the strawberry compote, I search several recipies too. And decided to give a try since I have quite a lot of strawberry from the recent trip to Cameron Highland. Wash the strawberries and rinse thoroughly. Cut the them into half. Put i

Assalamualaykum, This was our dinner last night. We had the coleslaw as a side dish together with the burger. And it is eggless as I am using the eggless mayonaise. Just like the chef in Farm Rules (Astro Channel 727) say, 'Chop Chop .....' , this is also about chop, chop add sauce.  I used about 5 layers of purple cabbage and about 2 inches of carrot for three servings. I thinly sliced the cabbage and grate the carrot. For the sauce (Sorry if I got it wrong), I used: 2 tablespoon eggless mayo 1 teaspoon lemon juice 1 table spoon sweet condensed milk about 1 tablespoon or less olive oil salt and pepper to taste Simply put everything into a bowl. Whisk it to thoroughly mix it. I added olive oil to smoothen the mixture because eggless mayo is thick and tend to be lumpy. This is my first attempt .... and ... Alhamdulillah ... it's delicious. Thank you Allah for the great food. Wassalam

Assalam all, This my dinner last night. Simple fried spaghetti with purple cabbage in fresh tomatoes and basil. Garnished with mint. Full of flavors. The motivation comes from the need to cook whatever is in the fridge and health conscious as well.  Colors are good for health. Each colors in the variety of food provides different nutrients that the body needs. So... there you go: orange (tomatoes) + purple (cabbage) + green (basil and mint) + some protein from the minced chicken meat for tasty flavor.

Assalamualaykum, Having simple menu tonight. Some sandwiches and salad. Here goes my salad: I have some left over baked sweet potatoes from the morning. I shred some green lettuce. And for the vinaigrette   I simply used the lemon juice + olive oil + some salt + pepper. Mix everything well. And you get a healthy and delicious salad. For the sweet potato: I thinly sliced it. Arrange it on the hot grill that has been sprinkled with some olive oil, Then sprinkle salt and pepper and olive oil on its surface. Turn it over when it seems ready (just do not let it burnt). To make a salad, I further cut it to finger sized.  Enjoy.

Assalamualaykum ... Taddaaa.... I am presenting to you SHAKSHOUKA ... Shakshouka is a Turnisian food. Being Malaysian we love to try food from various continent. And tonight I am trying Shahshouka, a dish that many has been talking about (at least within my colleagues and friends). It is actually runny egg in a spiced tomato gravy. And it's delicious. I fell in love with it on the first try. For the ingredients: The star ingredients would be *1 large Tomato (diced)  and 2 tablespoon tomato paste (you can use canned whole tomato) *1 1/2 teaspoon Cumin powder *1 large Capsicum - diced (I called it star because it really makes a difference when you have less of any of these) 1 large Onion 2 cloves of garlic Eggs - 2 or 3, but maximum is 4 (depends on how many serving you are preparing) Salt Pepper Sugar cooking oil  plain water Garnish with cilantro (but i used rosemary) The method: 1. Heat the wok or pot 2. Sa

Assalamualaykum... Alhamdulillah... it's finally in the house,  the Foul Medammas in gravy. My first taste of this dish was at  restaurant. But I disliked it. I made up my mind that this dish is not appealing to my tastebud. Second try was at a good friend's house and it changed my perception towards this dish immediately. It was delicious. Superb. To judge the food alone is unfair. We need several trials before making a decision. For this: 1 can of Foul Medammas (I used Kimball's) - drained and crushed slightly 1 can of baked beans 1 large onion 3 garlics 1/2 inch ginger About a small bowl of minced meat 1 table spoon of ghee and oil for frying Salt to taste Fresh black pepper 2 table spoon curry powder Preparing it: I came home from office and quickly work on the beef. Get it chopped and minced. Then work on the onions, garlic and ginger. Get it blended. Mix some water to the curry powder to form a paste. Heat the ghee an oil in a po

Assalamualaikum We were actually on our quest to get all the dried seafood products from a trading center in Tanjung Dawai. While chit-chatting, the shopkeeper offered to sell us the fresh squid. Fresh from the sea. Without hesitation, we grabbed a kilogram of it.  This is what becoming of it - Squid Curry This curry is supposed to be similar to curry cooked at the Mamak Restaurant. But bearing a Malay hat, it turns out slightly different but tasty to our tastebud. Ingredients: Quater kilogram of squid 2 large onions - sliced thinly Curry leafs 2 Pandan leafs - washed and make a knot out of it 3 tablespoon curry powder - add some water to it to form a paste Tamarind juice Salt to taste 2 to 3 tablespoon cooking oil Simple ingredient isn't it?? Now, making it: Pour the oil in the pot.  Add onion, pandan leafs and curry leafs. Fry till the onions are transparent or cooked (not burnt) Add the curry paste. Let it cook. You will kn

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 finely. Next,

Assalam. Dont be mistaken. This is not the sweet and cold and tasty and freezing Ais Krim Malaysia. It may look the same but it is not. It enhances the taste of your dish but its not Ais Krim Malaysia. It is the home-made stock. It is the homw made prawn stock. It will enhance the taste of your dish such as meehoon, fried noodle or even your Spaghetti Oglio. Using the prawn shell and the beheaded head. Boil them on low heat. Then blend in a blended. Next strain it because we only need the liquid. And safe keep it in the freezer. To use it, simply tear off the plastic or open the container. Add it into the hot frying paste (be it meehoon, kue tiao or noodle or spaghetti). It will dissolve in no time. This stock will really add the tasty taste to your cooking. Say NO to MSG when you can get the good taste from your home made stock. It is healthier and cleaner too. Well.... happy trying and experiencing. Only a little extra effort is required. Wassalam.

Assalamualaykum, A bunch of my husband's friend is coming for lunch on my off day. I need a quick fix as I am preparing it alone. This is among the dish prepared for them: A black pomfret in sambal. I bought palm sized pomfret, for easy consumption. Each can take one.  Cleaned it. Rubbed it with salt and turmeric powder.  And deep fried it till golden in colour. For the sambal: 1 onion - sliced thinly 2 garlic - chopped I used about 5 tablespoon of my ready made home-made chili paste (I like to prepare it ahead, so that I dont have to cook it for a long time on busy days? Tamarind juice extracts Salt and sugar for taste For the sambal: Fry the onion and garlic till soften Add the chilli paste Add water. Let it boil. Add tamarind juice. When it reaches the thickness that you like, add the salt and sugar to taste. Pour over the fried pomfret.  For garnishing, I fry 1 onion (sliced) and few cherry tomatoes. When soften, pour it

Assalamualaykum. Few friends suddenly messaged to come over. I need to think quick to fix something for the quest. Browsing through my freezer and storage cabinet, I decided to make the egg tart. My recipe is very simple Ingredients Ready made puff pastry 2 eggs 1 cup of full cream milk 2 table spoon sugar 1 tsp vanilla extract Pour the milk into a bowl. Add sugar Add 2 eggs - beaten. Stir well. Add vanilla extract. Heat the oven to 180 celcius Make sure the dough pastry is thawed slightly. Preferably in room temperature. Cut the sheet using the round cookie cutter. Place the pastry into the muffin tray. Mold them. Pour in the egg batter. Bake for about 20 minutes Alhamdulillah.... its ready to be eaten.

Assalamualaykum, This is a backdated version. Its' Ramadhan now. No lunch for a month. This was the lunch that we had earlier. And it can be a quick fix to your cooking ideas. Mr Hubby most of the time comes back for lunch on Friday because he wanted to perform the Friday solah in the masjid near our house. And I will try to come home as well, to fix some quick lunch for him.  And this is what I prepared today:- Ayam goreng kunyit, meatball soup with oyster mushroom and Masak lemak Kaduk. It sounds plenty but all are fast to make if we prepared your mind for it. For the chicken, I get it half cooked in the tumeric in advance, therefore it reduced my cooking time. The meatball is the ready made meatball (store bought, halalan), and preparing oyster mushroom is a bliss. And for Masak Lemak Kaduk, my preparation time is reduced because I used the palm milk. It is ready to cook, out of the fridge. Whallah... three dishes in just about 30 to 40 minutes. Everything

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. Kem

Assalamualaikum Pegaga atau dalam nama saintifiknya Centella Asiatica adalah sejenis tumbuhan menjalar. Pegaga dianggap sebagai herba berkhasiat. Sesuai untuk lelaki dan wanita. Rasanya? Rasanya macam daun. Terasa klorofilnya. Kalau sesiapa yang pernah minum klorofil, itulah rasa daun pegaga ni. Biasanya dimakan sebagai ulam.... jadi tak la terasa macam makan rumput. Nak lebih khasiat? Kita buat jus. Macam mana cara pemakanan atau minuman pegaga ni, yang seeloknya dimakan sebelum dimasak atau 'home made' (tidak dicampur sebarang bahan kimia). The beauty of having this plant grown in your own backyard is you can pick and have it fresh any day that you wish. I have these planted in several pots in my small garden.  It grows pretty fast. Chemical and pesticides free. Here is how I made my drinks: A handful stalks of pegaga (the stems too) Blended in a blender till chopped finely. Strain it. Add 1 tablespoon of honey and squeeze a slice o

Assalamualaikum, Coming back from a tiring office hours would call for snap and simple dish. This is what I made for dinner on one evening.

Assalamualaikum, Peningnya memikir nak masak apa. Rasanya macam masalah sejagat.  I always thought of preparing a week's menu. But it never happen yet. Perhaps one day it will. This is my fast solution for tonight's dinner. Lempeng kelapa @roti nyog @lempeng nyoq @lempeng nyiur. Those are the synonyms. Variety of names referring to one product. 'Nyog' is coconut pronounced in the the northern states of Malaysia. Nyiur or nyior is coconut pronounced in the eastern states of Malaysia. In Bahasa Melayu, we called it 'kelapa'. Lempeng is similar to flat bread but it is a batter rather than a dough. Enough blabbering.  Now with the recipe: I get hold of a small packet of grated coconut about 2 cups. (Preferably only the white is used). Put in a bowl. Next I added 1 cup of multipurpose flour. I added 1 beaten egg. A pinch of salt to taste. And finally about 1 cup of plain water. Mix everything well. The batter shou

Assalamualaikum, Having kakak at home for her semester break is a blessing. Happy to see food for dinner is ready. She made spaghetti bolognaise this time round. Ibu just feel like having some greens in the diet. A very fast solution is to fry the asparagus. I made it differently this time: I had my asparagus cut (not really cut, but i break it using the bare finger) into about 1 inch. I put it on a hot grill, and sprinkle some olive oil, salt and pepper. The garlic chopped and also dumped onto the grill. When soften, mixed the two together and enjoy it with the spaghetti. It is really fast and tasty. Enjoy. Wassalam.
