Pegaga, lemon dan madu

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 of lemon
Stir well.
Have it immediately.

If you like it chilled, put the juice in refrigerator. Upon taking it out, add honey and lemon extract.

Whalla. Easy and healthy.


Some healthy notes on the pegaga:


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.
