Asam pedas ikan pari & sayur bayam goreng

Sajian untuk hari ini. Tak ada yang istimewa. Selalunya kalau I masak, biasanya I just use ramuan yang simple-simple je. So for asam pedas ni, I just put these into it...

5 - 6 potong ikan pari

Serai, diketuk

Daun kesum

Air asam jawa

Bahan kisar:-

Bawang besar

Bawang putih

Lada kering

Lada hitam

Sedikit belacan

Sedikit kunyit hidup, kalau kunyit serbuk pun boleh

Tumis bahan kisar hingga wangi (garing or naik minyak)

Masukkan air asam, ikan serai & daun kesum dan masak hingga mendidih. Last masukkan garam secukup rasa.

Untuk Sayur bayam goreng pula I just tumbuk ramuannya guna batu lesung iaitu bawang besar, bawang putih, cili padi (I pakai 1 - 2 batang je) & udang kering yang telah direndam terlebih dulu. So tumislah ramuan tu hingga garing dan masukkan sayur bayam yang dah disiang bersama garam secukup rasa. Kalau terlalu kering tambahkan sedikit air. Actually dengan ramuan ini boleh dimasak dengan sayur jenis lain juga seperti sawi, kobis, kangkung dan banyak lagi lah....

Bancaan (Kenduri doa selamat)

Salam, semalam I buat bancaan sikit untuk birthday Syaiful yg ke-21thn yg jatuh pada 11.11.11 & Aiman yg ke-9thn yg jatuh pada 15.11.11. Selalunya masak nasi minyak tapi kali ini I buat nasi ayam penyet tapi ayam tak penyek pun. So untuk sos I buat dua macam...1 sos ayam penyet yang pedas dan 1 lagi sos nasi ayam biasa yang tak berapa pedas supaya budak-budak yang tak cerewet boleh makan. Then ada juga chap cai, sambal fiahball + udang yg tak berapa besar tu dan juga sop bebola daging. My mak brought mee goreng dia yang power tu and my adik brought bubur kacang. Thanks to both of them.



I buat pulut kuning, cupcakes yang dihias oleh Farhanah, brownies, kuih kaswi, hoon kwee jagung dan pizza. Penatnya boleh tahan juga tapi happy sebab segalanya berjalan dengan lancar.




Cuma boring bila rumah macam tongkang pecah, orang setakat tolong ala kadar lepas tu pagi tadi tinggal pergi kerja and I ingat semalam bila dia kata dah cuci benda-benda besar tu...I ingat tinggal yang remeh temehlah utk I kemas...rupa-rupanya....haizz..cakap pun tak guna sebab semua I dah settle sendiri and it take more than half a day to do it. Nasib baik ada Farhanah, living room dia yang kemas....

Moral of the story...lain kali kalau nak kerja on the weekend, jangan buat kenduri....buat susah orang lain.....
