Black Pomfret in Sambal

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

Simple Egg Tart

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.
