Sayur Kincam aka. Lily Buds

Salam,

As usual my entry is the backdated entry. I cooked this last year, at mak's house (hah! lama tu .......), to be exact 26thDecember 2010 (tak la lama sangat....). We normally cook the dried lily buds, but this time it's the fresh lily buds. Mak got it from a cousin who went to Cameron Highland for his daughter's wedding. I, myself will never leave Cameron Highland without buying the lily buds. I just love it. MMMuahh....

Cooking it is simple. Just like frying any other vege. My version would be:

The Ingredients
2 handfuls of fresh kincam (1 packet)
2 Fresh red chillies*
1 clove of onion*
3 cloves of garlic*
1 tablespoon of dried shrimp (you can change it to fresh shrimp or anchovies)
Salt to taste
Cooking oil

All ingredients labeled * are to pounded or blended.

How To:
1. Heat the cooking oil in a pan.
2. Fry the pounded ingredients till fragrant.
3. Add in the lily buds.
4. Add some salt.

Ready to serve. Whalla!! EZ isn't it. And it's delicious too.

Cheerios!

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...

Nasi goreng ringkas

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 fin...
