It's Burger tonite

Eggless Purple Coleslaw

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

Simple fried spaghetti

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.

Sweet Potato salad

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.

Shakshouka

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.

Kacang Phool

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...
