and put in some redbean creamcheese mixture ...
and then just leave it in the frige ..

Ramadhan Buka Puasa

Finally made my step into the Ramadhan mood. Wait! I am not puasa-ing! I am not a Muslim!
Nevertheless, for the love of good foodies, i made my step to the Ramadhan market where you could see a great variety of Malay food. Being ulu, i have not tried many food. In fact, staple Malay food like Nasi Briyani and Nasi Kandar are rather strange to me. If you would to ask me how they taste like, I really couldnt answer u. I would most probably think they taste like Nasi Lemak because that is the only Malay rice i have eaten most in my entire life. Damn! i am very ulu!

However, my uluness was not shown on my face and i gladly made my entry to the Ramadhan market; diffusing into the crowd although in my heart, i am one big Ulu.

Take a look at what me and sweesan, also not forgetting one of my fren, found in the PJ Section 14 Ramadhan market:


Looking yummy huh? Introducing Mr. Ayam Percik


Sotong-Sotong and Ikan-Ikan Bakar-Bakar ..AHahaha...


Miss Kuih with coconut head topping




 
Look at how the Makcik prepared Roti Jala ...seems very hebat right?


Nasi Tomato...rather curious


Very colourful Kuih Muih



The dishes served with Nasi Briyani


Otak-Otak..I think the Panjang one nicer than Ketul one...

Well, i guess that is all about the Ramadhan Market.
Will try to head towards more Ramadhan Market.
Heard that the ss18 Ramadhan Market in Subang is good as well. Perhaps, another attempt?



p/s : Swee's additional comments.. ahhaha

well personally i think the food they sell there are not really like .. WOW !! or .. super nice.. it looks nice althought.. i bought the ayam percik, roti jala, samosa, nasi briyani.. yeah.. (for my family ok..)
well maybe i went to the wrong stall or something
but it ddint really reach to my expectations..

the puasa market is a nice place / chance to be exposed by all sorts of malay foods.. they have basically most of the things (except i couldnt find mr. nasi lemak) .. it is a good eye-opener for people like me who dont go that often.. (this is not my first time tho..)
but taste wise..

maybe because they cook in huge quantity.. and they have to prepare the food earlier so that when the crowd comes.. it's more convenient.. but em... some of the taste was somehow.. a lil bit off..

so.. yeah.. taht's about it ...

First Entry By the Procrastinate Author
This is my very first entry in this blog or rather in any blogsite. So mark down this moment of victory. hehe...anyway, here i am to blog about the very first omelette in my life. Let me tell u something, i have never actually made any egg-ie foodie in my life except for boiled eggs because they are easy and u dont have to cook them using oil *Im afraid of oil!*

By the way, i think my omelette was a success. Kinda proud of myself actually for starting the stove to pouring the oil, heat it and fried the egg! OMG! i nearly cant believe what i had done. I am not exaggerating but as much as i like cooking, the idea of frying food is still scary to me. Imagine the oil splashing on ur hand? Hurts right? I have this experience, a rather silly one and perhaps, it was such a disgrace. I accidentally dipped my finger into the hot oil when i was frying onion ring! My finger was probably cooked - maybe. *shakes head to myself*

Nevertheless, one fine morning, with courage and bravery, i decided to make omelette. A good one! for a good start of the day. Do not look down on omelette, i woke up 45 minutes earlier to prepare but i ended up spending nearly 2 hrs! So i have concluded - Omelette is not an easy task!

Look at what i have got to make my very first omelette:

Slice crabsticks, sausages and button mushrooms



Egg with milk

With the ingredients, i started the fire and next:

Looked fine, right?

Then, i waited awhile - thinking what to do next? I was busy taking pictures actually. Haha...


This was my very first omelette. Doesnt look so pretty huh? Anyway, it was down in my brother's tummy and most probably, flushed down to the Pacific Ocean already. AHahaha...

I wasnt too satisfied so i tried again n made my second and third omelette:

Note that there were two of them. I think i made quite an improvement huh? and a rather quick one right?

Anxiously, i packed to uni and of coz, for my fellow mates to try. I was too anxious to see and to know their reactions. Hehe...probably, i should get them to comment here right?

pasta carbonara


the last time i made carbonara was ... new years eve last year.. so.. almost 10 month !! wow.. thats pretty long

because the carbonara in danny n partners cafe is good enough.. and i didnt wanted to make any.. i just resolved to making .. tomato-paste pasta..

so.. my brother thought me how to make carbonara when we went to australia last year.. but.. u know almost a year and i can hardly remember the proportions of the ingredienst.. all i remember was.

eggs
cheese
milk
butter
pasta
salt + pepper
garlic ..

and that's probably what i used today.. with additional sliced ham and button mushrooms..
and i used the bow-tie pasta.. which was really cute.. ahaha
i normally just get spagetti, fettucinne or tortellini (the spiral twists thingy)

i still want to try and make fresh ravioli with chicken and tuna.. or.. well.. just anything that i have..
but it'll take quite some time for me to make the fresh pasta.. kinda hungry already.. so i just made.. carbonara..

pasta carbonara

em.. the creamy sauce was ok.. but the egg went too cooked...
i turned off the fire.. and then only added eggs.. but er.. still too hot i guess...

maybe tomato-based paste works better.. ahhahaha
but.. fun try anyway ...

apple juice


apple juice with crunchy aloe vera bits..
yummy..

got it while grocery shopping yesterday...
yeah so my freezer is filled with fries, onion rings, nuggets... ahahahhaha.. almost got the hash browns.. but.. well.. already bought so much other things.. so.. keep em for next time ..

oh yeah... this apple juice.. works really well with sprite and a slice of lemon..

la la la la la ~~~



*burppp*
