Whenever I said that I am not confident to cook Pindang or Singgang, I'll get simillar feedbacks....Laa senang je ma, nak masak singgang tu. Main lebur je... Translation : It's very easy to cook Singgang. Just chuck everything in the pot! Huhuhu... if only before this, I am that confident, then it'll be a different story now.

Anyway, finally I braved myself to cook Singgang last week. At first nobody touches the Singgang as I had served dinner with sambal and a few other dishes. Hubby ate rice with sambal. Then when he's done eating, he took a sip of the Singgang. A sip after another till 70% of the Singgang is gone! Wahhhh, that makes me a very happy wife! Hahaha... the Singgang wasn't perfect though because I had put in too much salt. Hmm how can that be because I am normally not a salty person! I guess, because I am just nervous.... hahaha..baikkk punya cover line.... Thanks to Kak Liza for the simple yet delicious recipe. I took it from her Senangnya Memasak cooking book....
