Ribs

Ribs. My favorite. I've created a recipe for ribs yg best giler. Every Raya Haji, my family akan request for me to make ribs.

Tapi kat kl ni tak tau nak carik ribs kat mana... kena gi pasar la kot... kat supermarket suma takde jual ribs... so terpaksa settle for ribs kat restaurant... either Chili's or Tony Roma's...

Complimentary bread and garlic butter (best)

Onion Loaf

Fried Mushroom with honey mustard sauce
Tony Roma's Ribs... with smoked BBQ sauce

Dessert...

Best giler...

Special Food

Makanan ni suma dijumpai masa Raya... This first one jumpa kat umah sedara kat Bukit Betong, lepas kitaorg pegi ziarah kubur...

Nasi Hujan Panas

Ada sesapa pernah dengar and/or makan?

Patin Tempoyak

Kalau balik kampung ni, wajib la mintak my mom masakkan Gulai Tempoyak Ikan Patin... walaupun kat KL ni ada gak jumpa dua tiga tempat yg pandai masak patin tempoyak, tapi yang mak buat memang lagi best... hehehe...

Buat lebih sbb satu keluarga hantu tempoyak patin

Makan ngan nasi jer dah cukup...

Terus rasa lapar... x sabar nak balik Pahang next week... :)

Daging Masak Merah

Tiap2 bulan puasa, dah jadi tradisi untuk wat berbuka puasa ngan kawan2... so kuarlah buku resipi dan berjam2 la call my mom utk dapatkan cara2 nak masak lauk pauk nih... (before this dah tunjuk gambar/resipi utk Bolognaise)...

Ni lak, daging masak merah... so mula2 daging tu kena rebus dalam air yg dah dicampur pewarna merah...

Tambah serai utk kewangian...

Hasilnya setelah direbus

Potong jadi slices yg tak tebal, tak nipis, medium jer

Then goreng semula...

utk gravy... goreng bawang, garlic, capsicum, cili dan tomato

campur sikit cili and tomato sos, pepper and garam,
jgn lupa lak campur gak air rebusan daging tadi sket

Campak suma daging slices tadi... then simmer until gravy pekat or
until u rasa malas dah nak tunggu...

Then, voila! Daging Masak Merah, try jgn tak try... hehehe, actually, masa nih dah terlupa dah nak ikut instructions my mom sbb byk sgt mende lain nak kena wat gak, so main boh je sesuka hati... kengkawan cakap sedap (diaorg amek hati je kot... huhuhu)...

Lemang

Raya tahun ni kitaorg wat lemang. Sampai2 jer kat Padang Tengku (Kuala Lipis), malam sebelum Raya tuh, diaorg kat umah nenek dah get ready dah utk melemangkan diri. Hhehehe.

Buluh lemang yang dah diisi ngan beras dan daun pisang

Ni my beloved mom, tgh isi santan

Kena jolok2 gak takut santan tak masuk ke dalam2

Ready to be burned (Siap utk dibakar, direct translation katanya)

My dad lak leading the burning team

The burning team

Dah hampir masak...

Gambar lemang yg dah masak tak sempat nak amek sbb busy makan... hehehe...

Madam Kwan's

Mushroom Chicken Rice

Cendol

Nasi Bojari

Madam Kwan's Pavilion was the choice this time. The always excellent Nasi Bojari was my choice. Nasi special dia, plus ayam goreng, sambal udang, telur rebus, serunding daging... memang best...

Mushroom Chicken Rice tu normal jer tapi mushroom dia besar2 tak... :)

Cendol tu biasa jer tp dia asingkan gula... so elok la pada orang2 yg diet or berpenyakit... leh control gak gula intake tuh... :)

Bolognaise

During the second week of puasa, during the 3-day Merdeka weekend, I had my friends and colleagues over at my place for buka puasa. I slaved over the electric stove all day to make dinner. Okay, okay, half a day.

One colleague, very the heavily pregnant (worried that she might give birth at my place) asked if I could make her Bolognaise Pasta so I obliged... the ingredients are:

Onions

Tomatoes

Mushrooms


Garlic (left), tomatoes - chopped (right)


Saute-ing the onions


Adding in the tomatoes, mushrooms, garlic

After adding in minced meat and tomato puree

After simmering for a while
(not pictured: ginger, salt, white/black pepper,
worchester sauce, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, oregano, paprika)

The pasta... cook until aldente or soft, rinse,
then reheat again, add butter and a little oregano or basil

Add cheese to the dish

The end product

The pregnant colleague asked me if what I was serving was Prego. I was offended at first but then I realized it was a compliment. Coz it tasted like store bought. International brand even. :)

To tell you the truth, that was my first time trying the recipe and I even tweaked the original recipe a little coz of the red wine...

Food Hunt

Participating in this food hunt, which starts tomorrow... super excited... hopefully they won't ask us to cook something on the spot.... hehehe...
