Ghee Tarts


Hello everyone....

Hope all are in good health after stuffing your tummy with food, food and more food. And I bet, those who are working, will find it hard to get back to work after the long holiday (bet many of you applied for a whole week leave right?)

Well this Eid, I had quite a bad experience actually. On the third and forth day of Eid, I was flat. Down with food poisoning! That wasn't my first experience of food poisoning, but I must say, this one was the worst! I was all drained out! I even had a jab...huhuhu... all thanks to the shirmp. I am pretty sure, that is the culprit because even mom, my sis and my brother-in-law wasn't feeling good after eating the shrimp from that restaurant. Mr Hubby, Fatin and Syahmi didn't eat shrimp, and they are all fine. So yes... it's the shrimp!

Actually we planned to stay in Malacca till Tuesday but then, had to prolong it till Thursday. On Saturday, we had a lovely experience (I guess that's to balance the horrible experience I had earlier on). It wasn't planned but it just happened. We had a 'Convoi Raya' with our Malawi Circle of Friends. We started from Kg Dato' Baginda - Sg Ramal - Putra Heights - Shah Alam - Bandar Enstek - Bandar Seri Putra. From there we split with them and went to one of our Sri Lanka Circle of Friends, now residing at Bandar Bukit Mahkota. Didn't spend much time there as we had to rush home. Another family from Sri Lanka Circle of Friends were coming to visit us. Gosh, it was very tiring but definately something worth treasuring......

Oki doki, let me just post another cookie recipe that I had tried before Eid. It was lovely and as always, the recipe was suggested to me by my trusted friend, none other than Mak Lang The Great . Thanks Mak Lang for the melt in the mouth pineapple tart.... yummmmm......


For the recipe.....


GHEE TART

Ingredients A :
250 g butter
2 egg yolks
3 tablespoons ghee
3 tablespoons castor sugar

    Alhamdulillah sihat dah. Cuma dua hari je yang flat, then slowly recovering.

    Ummi :
    Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Fitri juga buat Ummi sekeluarga. Oh macam tu eh? Kalau tak ingat Ummi, mesti sakit perut eh? Ahakss... Ala, malas nak sound kat toke restaurant tu sebab that day pun, hanya kedai dia je yang bukak. And then pelanggan masuk bertali arus. Sudah semestinya ada potensi untuk masak cincai bocai je!

    MAK TEH :
    Alhamdulillah okay dah. Waalaikumussalam to Don.

    makcikkantin :
    Melt in the mouth tau makcik. Alhamdulillah dah baik dah...

    noorsl :
    Kita lama tak update sebab balik kampung beraya. Pas tu, bila balik sini, aktiviti beraya rancak sekali. Tu yang terbantut segala operasi mengadap laptop.

    inahar ali :
    Waalaikumussalam Ina. Ma doakan semuanya kembali sihatlah ye. Sakit mata ni memang berjangkit. Wahhh anak-anak Ina ada cuti tambahan lagi eh... nak wat cemana kan...
