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...

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

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.

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. ...

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.

Assalamualaykum, Kicap ... o ... kicap. Maaf, ini bukan iklan kicap. Tapi masakan hari ni tiba-tiba terlalu berkicap. But, this is what my husband love the most. Anything berkicap is always his favourite. As the wife, we cook as what he likes. Jadi tema hari ni KICAP. Top: Telur masak kicap Bottom: Kacang panjang goreng kicap. Ini aje lah yang sempat aku masak untuk juadah Jumaat. Maklum la ... sampai rumah hampir pukul 1.00 tengahari, aku terus meluru ke dapur dan memulakan tugasa seperti yang dirancangkan (while driving, I have everything planned in my head: what to cook; what needs to be done first; and how will the job sequence be).  Mula-mula, masak nasi. Then goreng telur. Sambil menggoreng, aku mula mengupas bawang-bawang yang diperlukan untuk kesemua juadah (2 je pun...). Bila telur dah siap, bawang pun dah siap untuk memulakan masak kicap telurku. Dan tangan mula pula memotong kacang panjang mengikut kesesuaianku. Bila masak kicap telur dah siap. Ka...

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.   Read more:  http://www.livestrong.com/article/407900-health-benefits-of-chives/#ixzz28ksLCGRY   Amazing isn't it. Small but very beneficial to health. Yes, Allah has created everything for a purpose. Its up to us to ...

Salam all, Another healthy entry from me today. Not to say that other entries are not healthy, they are healthy but probably less healthy. As I normally write, 'Cooking is Simple'. Put everything into the cooking pot and whalla!, it's ready to be eaten. Preparing and cleaning requires a bit of your extra effort --- bab ni yang tak tahan, except if you have a helper. However, sometimes we can make the preparation time shorter by using the ready made ingredients, for instance this Chicken Ball that I purchased, the Ayamas brand. The mushroom , is also readily used. washed it thoroughly, remove the stem and they are ready to be cooked. No mess produced. Next, you need only to prepare some garlic and onion . For a cook, this is just a bliss. Follows will be the cooking steps. With couple of sentences -- dump everything into the pot, add some water , later add salt & paper to taste -- a here you are: You may also add any green leafy vegetables and some carrots ....

Salam all, During fasting month, we must not forget to take veges in our diet. Eating veges is essential and it helps protect our body from many harmful illness like cancer. A large amount of serving is required to stay healthy. Veges should be taken with every meals. But, during Ramadhan, its not easy to get the kids (especially) to take veges at 5am in the morning. Due to the dislike for veges, many people turn to supplements. The different color of veges has different benefit to health. But for this entry, just let's share a single colored vege ......the Fiddlehead Fern. Back in 1970s, when my aunt was staying in Kg Nakhoda, Selangor, there was a small creek behind her house. On the other side of the creek there were lots and lots of ferns. We used to cross the creek and pluck the fern ourselves. Wow! what a beautiful memory back then. And Kg Nakhoda is not that far from the heart of the city center Kuala Lumpur. I am not sure whether the environment still exist or perhaps a...

Salam All, Have you ever face the problem in getting the kids to eat their vegetables? I do. My last resort would always be the 'VETO' power!! "With the power of a MOTHER, I command both of you to eat your vege." ( kena baca gaya cartoon He-Man hihih ) Another approach that I tried and was a success is making a vege soup. So here it is ...... THE BROCCOLI SOUP The ingredients: The broccoli Onion Whipped Cream Multi purpose flour mixed with some plain water Salt and pepper How to: 1. On a heated pan. saute the onion till tender and brownish 2. Add the chopped broccoli. Once the broccoli is tender, turn off the heat. 3. If your blender can uphold the heat, transfer everything into the blender, add some plain water and blend it until you obtain a smooth texture. 4. Pour the blended ingredients into a pot, add the about 2-3 table spoon of whipped cream and simmer till a little thicker. 5. Add salt & pepper to taste. 6. To thicken it further, add the ...

A simple and quick dish, here it is: A packet of baby cabbage 3-4 cloves of Shallots and garlic A little bit of anchovies 1 table spoon of cooking oil Sprinkle of Olive oil Salt and pepper to season. 1.

Once the shallot and garlic turn brownish, add the anchovies. 4. Add some water in order not to burn the ingredients. 5. As the achoveies soften, add some salt. (salt was to retain the green color of the vege, besides to season it). 6. Finally add in the vege that has been washed thoroughly. Let it cook ...

Salam All, Let's talk about the GOURD (labu air) today. From a reading in a book on the food that Rasulallah SAW likes, the gourd is one of his favourite. But, sorry, I forgot the exact name of the book. To those who are not sure how the gourd or labu air looks like (ye la... maybe other people called it differently), here it is .... pic obtained from Pusat Maklumat Rakyat. Here are some benefit of the gourd or some call it the bottle gourd for it's shape that is like a bottle. I found this on lifestyle.iloveindia.com . High in sodium and potassium, bottle gourd is an excellent vegetable for hypertension patients. It is a suitable vegetable for light, low-cal diets as well as for children, people with digestive problems, diabetics and convalescents. It helps in treating urinary disorders, since it serves as an alkaline mixture for treating burning sensation in urinary passage, caused by high acidity of urine. Bottle gourd is recommended by ayurvedic physicians for balancing t...

Salam semua, Dah pun dua hari di tahun baru Masihi. Yang penting bagi kita adalah setiap hari mesti lebih baik dari hari yang sebelumnya. Ni nak kongsi resepi dulu-dulu. Resipi baru dah ada fotonya tapi belum sempat nak transfer, kira acilah jugak kalau kongsi resepi lama kan. Yang penting ikhlas..... Hari ni kita mencuba pula resipi kesihatan yang ringkas dan amat mudah dilakukan. Cuma 'tedious' kat part yang menghiris bahan2nya.
