21st day of Ramadhan


Salam..hi all...ahaaaa I dah very updated dah with my daily activities..come 21st day..it has been an absolutely lazy day for me..sesungguhnyer macam mata x mau buka tpi tau kita dah less than 10 ari nak Raya..umah lom cuci, baju belum siap lagi, kueh Raya jauh skli dari siap..**sigh**

Due to malas mood that I am in..today food is minimalist ajee..Spaghetti Bolognese jer no meatballs pon..just gravy jer,...but after a long while sedap jugak..also for my daughter, Alya to take back to her hostel, sian kena masuk before 6pm tadi..so masak awai la sikit just for her.


Got some pisang yang duk kat fridge tu..buat cucoq kodoks..

And surprisingly after balik dari Tesco, my daughter, Farah, cakap buat lah Pizza bun to compliment the pasta tu..haaa tup tup mood rajin tu mai sat...so buat lah 30 pcs of pizza bun..uhmm we finish about 20 of them during buka posa..my youngest makan ini jer , I think he had 4 pieces at one go...he must really suka klu x memang x makan nyer.

Of course, we are still not over pavlova..this is the 3rd day, we are having pavlovas. Ni yang buat semalam, cuma beli strawberry and potong2 and makan2..

20th day Ramadhan


Today, some of us went shopping..jalan2 again to Selayang Mall..dh malas p OU and The Curve. Anyway, here the admosphere is really Raya..lots of people shopping..especially kids stuffs..seronok tengok thier happy faces..because of the afternoon strolling in the mall, it was almost 530pm before we started back home. I guess cannot do much cooking so hubby says he will get Kentucky and we just make some nasi goreng..hahaha another day of x masak yahooo..

The barrel is alrady sitting on the table by 645pm..I made papaya drink..just mix half papaya with 2-3 tbsp of sweetened condensed milk and give it a whirl in the blender for 2-3 minutes..and there u have a lovely papaya drink. U can also add some lemon juice to give it a twist..
I made my own coleslaw as additional to the store bought and also cut the balance of the papaya and some mangoes for the fruit platter.
The kids got their way with their abah..talked him into buying diet coke la apa lagiii...hehehe


Lastly, highlight of the evening is the strawberry and mango pavlova ..sedap but not as good as the passion fruit pavlova..sebenar nyer dah tamak buat 2 biji pavlova tu...nk makan banyak2 tapi x termakan jugaks..hehehe kenyanggg...dalam masa yang sama, I kuar ke Jaya Grocers, Damansara Perdana nak beli passion fruit..but sungguh kecewa..xde passion fruit..jurujual tu kata "come back next week" aiyoo..so dissappointing..:(

19th day of Ramadhan

This is the 19th day, it gets more and more busy everyday..as we get nearer to Raya..**sigh** kuih raya entah kemana lagiii..belom mula pon...


Ini one of my favorite too< arwah mak selalu masak for us this dish whenever I balik umah kat Alor Staq dulu2 ni...Ayam pedas masak bunga kincam..sedap sebab bunga kincam tu masam2 sikit and kuah pedas..

Ni favorit yang di masak berulang kali - yang ni ubi merah tempura, ada jugak mushroom..Ni sambal belacan dengan ulam rebung dan timun..
Masak lemak rebung with cili padi..awesome and pedas!!!Made some soup sayur..only way I can get the kids to eat sawi..with soft taufu, soohoon and some fried fucuk..uhmmm we manage to finish it...:)

Pavlova..pavlova cannot get enough of it..this one is topped with passion fruit..the acidity of the passion fruit really works very well with the pavlova..sedap gilerrrsss!!! I am going to keep making them for a while..maybe we will have them for Raya too..

18th day of Ramadhan



Today hubby is outstation..p Penang..so again a free and easy day for us..and also my three boys g sekolah ada berbuka puasa at the school.


I wanted to eat Koay Teow soup and the kids nak nasi lemak..so I pun bagitau maid prepare for these two different menu..I bought Koay Teow Ipoh - very soft, white and nice..
Ni condiments nasi lemak..just plain nasi lemak aja lah..


Amar, one of the twins, asked me "Mama, letih ke?" with a smile..I said naper? Bolih tolong bake a carrot cake, nak bawa p sekolah. So here it is dah buat one resepi and dia kata x cukup..so made another resepi..tu pon it seems x cukup ..

Dalam kesibukan tu, tingat lak, my friends daughter Shazwina duk tanya auntie tau ka buat cake yg sort of rainbow cake tu..so I made this..syok jugak and taste nice too..




17th day Ramadhan


Hubby was looking forward to eat some fries..so kemarok fries..kena lah buat something that compliments his craving for fries..


So this is it..

My beef patties..I took the recipe from my favorite cookbook, by Rachel Allen..sedaps. :)

The fries and bread are store bought though.

Some cut tomatoes, cucumbers and onions to compliment the burger.
Owwhhh I have to make the mushroom soup to go with it..hehehe
Still for those who wants to take a light meal, have a bowl of salad and salad cream to go with it.
For dessert, we had another batch of cempedak gorings and serawa pumpkin. Klu x kenyang x tau lah lagiii..but again my maid cooked some rice for Amir, the whatever happen must have rice person..

16th day of Ramadhan


The 16th day of Ramadhan..Monday blues...
table fully set ready for berbuka..

View of what's on the table..this is so that I can remember when I update the blog..clever ain't it??

Another view of the table..Now to zero in on the individual dishes..masak lemak cili api siakap..very pedas indeed.
Ni I la teringin..lupa orang Kedah panggil apa..kalio buncis and hati ayam..ni klu dulu2 kenduri kawin ada la..again teringat zaman dolu2..

Another of my favorite dish, black pepper beef..this time less all the trimmings..dah masak atu halfway malaih lah pulaks..so togel jer lah..but puas ati dapat makan nya :)

This is Jerok Maman in it's natural form..fermented and ready to eat..memang klu yg cukup rasa sedap x terhingga but I find that this bottled jerok is not masin..x rasa apa2 :( sangat..quite disappointing jugak. I find yang jual kat Pasar Besar Taman Tun tu jugak yang best.

Anyway, this is how u are supposed to eat it, with cut chili padis and sliced onions..sedaps..klu yang betui fermented tu..


Ni lak my sardine rolls ..sedap la pepanas makan dia kan..Yang ni goreng cempedaks..punya la sweet and nice..but hubby kata ni cam buah hybrid, kacok nangka and cempedaks..apa pun sedap lah..

15th day of Ramadhan

Today I left home about 5.00am after sahur for the airport..balik kampong day..for some work with my brother..took the 7.05am Air Asia flight and arrived about 8am..Alor Star ws bright as can be :).

Spend the day in Alor Star and we took the 9.55 pm flight back..yes 9.55pm wohhh.. we had iftar at the airport jer..my brother's friend sent us back to the airport and we stayed there till the time to board..susah kan nanti bulan puasa..terawih and all..so we told him just leave us there at the airport..we ordered Nasi goreng with ikan masin and it came like this..sedap jugaks lah dh lapaq nihhh..hehehe..we also had watermelon jus and after that a glass of teh tariks..
Sambil nak masuk the waiting lounge sempat laks ternampak "Jerok Maman" , one of my favorite, reminded me of home sweet home..terus nak beli sepuloh botoi hehehe..of course lah camner nk carry bebanyak laks.. bought 2 botol..enough to satisfy my craving for it..

Ni secrets revealed kuih "Makmor", the old fashioned way...kita angkut balik KL..and penats angkat naik and turun kapal terbang but it is all worth it..

14th day Ramadhan


This was the 14th day berbuka menu...haaa more of the same food..I think..

I teringin nak makan koay teow goring but when I went to the kedai xde la pulaks si koay teow ni :( so instead I bought Japanese Udon? noodles and made fried noodle lah..


I made gulai ikan, lemak white radish, sambal ikan bilis..uhmmm, more tempuras and stir fry lettuce. Hubby beli murtabaks, roti boms, pulut udang and talam pumpkin, I think..haaa penuh meja dah overflow sampai kena buat para laks..





13th day of Ramadhan


The 13th day was a Saturday and I decided I do not want to cook and went to OU with Alya and Sabrina , her friend to look for Raya stuff..uhmmm..nothing much that we decided to go to Selayang Mall instead..haaa there it is more meriah and lots of Raya stuffs to look at..we had fun just going round and round..till we got so tired by the time it was time to go back. I bought HJ Samuri satay for berbuka..satay chicken, beef and peruts..

Look at the table..serabuts betui..as it was amost time, hubby came back and bought some kuih from pasar Ramadhan in Melawati..
This dish is asparagus stir fried with sambal belacan..owwhhh yummy..wahhh..witn satay, ada lak orang nak makan nasi jugaks..uhmmm taht is why we have to cook some dishes to go with the nasi,.

Ni lah yang d beli from pasar ramadhan Melawati..Ikan masak asam pedas..(can't remember ikan apa), kerabu daun selom, some kuihs..putu buloh in the palstic wrapper, kuih kasui ( punya la x sedap..pahit bangats), pulut sambal and some kuih koci. The pasar Melawati pon is not what it used to be..**sigh** and also the satar..I x pandai makan dia.
Baru teringat, I made the cake for them only today..sponge cake layered with fresh cream and kiwis..yums..but x larat nak makan dahh..terkenyang makan.. :(
