Pandan Chiffon Cake

I went to my family clinic this morning. Wanted to consult the doctor regarding my blood pressure medication, which seems not to do me any good, at the moment. And I came out of the doctor's room with some no good news. Let me just keep it to myself for now....

I need to get some rest. Take care all of you and thank you for coming.....

I will leave you with this recipe that I've tried yesterday night. Made this out of curiosity. The method is different from all the chiffon cakes's method that I've made before. I still think, the normal way will give a better texture. But this chiffon is soft too and not to mention nice. Otherwise, hubby won't be asking for more.... *wink*

Lempeng Pisang Kelapa

TEA TIME!!!!

When I came across this recipe at Puan Yatie's blog, I remembered my late adopted granny (may her soul rest in peace). She was such a good cook. Not only she cookes well but she makes delicious kuihs too. Once I sat with her to copy down all the recipes but my oh my... she had it all in her head and to make things worst, she does not have any measurements whatsoever. She simply threw everything into the bowl and 'zam zam ala kazammmm'... everything's ready! I wish I have the same power of 'zam zam ala kazammmm'.... hahahaha....

Made this yesterday evening for mom's tea. But I need to make a confession here, I didn't actually follow the same measurement, infact I was acting clever yesterday, and I simply chuck the ingredients without measuring. I made the lempeng with only 2 bananas and added 1/4 teaspoon baking powder to the batter.

Thank you Puan Yatie for sharing the recipe with us. Allow me to repost your recipe here.

Baked Macaroni with Tuna

T.H.E R.A.M.B.L.I.N.G.S

MERDEKA!!!!
Oh no no no... Today is not the 31st August, but today is the 27th November, 2012... the last day for my son to be a school boy. He sat for his last SPM paper today.

Last Saturday, when I was ironing his last two pairs of school uniform, I felt sad... thinking that it will be the second last time I will be ironing his uniforms. I will be ironing the last pair when he goes to school for the result but that will be next year, In Sha ALLAH.

And this morning and evening, again I felt the same, when sending him to school and fetching him home. When we left the school, I drove slowly and even looked back to see the school. I guess it is because I had been doing the same routine for the past 5 years and it's not that easy to just let it go.

Well, looking on the bright side... I no longer have to be like a thief to watch TV. Normally I will lock my bedroom door and put on a low volume to avoid my son from 'keeping me company' in front of the TV. So just now, I watched one after another programme, from Merlin to Kung Fu Panda! Hahahahaha... When I told my sister about this, she just said,"I am really confused! Who had just sat for SPM? You or your son?" Ahahahaha... macamlah tak biasa... mama kan selalu over!!!!


T.H.E R.E.C.I.P.E

Syahmi had 3 sets of papers for Biology. So he had to stay back after the second paper as it is just a short interval. So I sent him lunch at 12.30 pm just now. He requested for Burgers. Besides the burger, I had tried something new today, and that was among his lunch menu today. And my son had shared the small portion with his friends. Oh how sweet.


Thank you to Kuchai for sharing this simple and yummy recipe with us. It doesn't take long to prepare and I love the taste.....

40-Minute Hamburger Buns

T.H.E R.A.M.B.L.I.N.G.S

Had been sick the whole day yesterday. Down with headache! It was quite hot yesterday and I think it is a bit too much for my head. If only I have the gadget that Uncle Fester of Addam's Family has, it would be such a great help!

At times, when the throbbing is unbearable, this silly idea came into my mind. I would unscrew my head, scrape off all the headaches that are stuck to the skull, wash it clean and shine, wipe it dry and then only will I screw it back to it's place. Niceeee and clean... headache free! Hahahaha... dah macam hantu penanggal pulak bunyinya kan...ahahahaha... Who else have this kind of idea in their minds, leave a comment after this post... thank you... hahaha.... dah sengal dah ni.....mmm abaikan je, tak yah layan mama ni....

T.H.E R.E.C.I.P.E

Syahmi had to stay back in school after the second paper yesterday. Before dropping him off to school in the morning, I had asked him what he wanted for lunch. He said he wanted just burger and not rice. And I said ok. When I got home, oh oh... I just remembered that there is no burger buns at home. Huwaaa.... I doubt the shops infront of my house have burger buns and to drive all the way to the shop that sells, my headache is not allowing me to do so. Best solution I could think of is to bake my own burger buns. And yes... after a while, not baking bread, yesterday I made these lovely burger buns. Thank you to Taste of Home for sharing the recipe with us. It doesn't take long to prepare these buns. I made half the recipe and managed to get 5.

Corn Chiffon Cake

T.H.E R.A.M.B.L.I.N.G.S

Yesterday when I updated my blog, after a while, when I refreshed the page, I was shocked!!! Not that my blog was hacked or whatsoever. This is honestly a pleasant shock!



Look at the number of visitors to my 'house' at that particular moment! Oh my gosh... I am honestly very happy, very....urghh.....oh oh I am lost for words...but what I can say is... I AM HAPPY... Yeeehaaa!!!

Please don't get me wrong. I am not trying to show off or anything of that kind. It is because, I hardly have so many visitors at one time, so the excitement is beyond control! Hahaha.... Unlike those famous bloggers, Che Mat Gebu, Hajjah Ummi Kuantan, Ita Masam Manis and Ben Ashaari, to name a few. To them the number above is a norm, so they don't feel as excited as I am... like a little girl being given a big juicy lollipop! Hahaha....

Anyway, let me just treasure that sweet moment here..... thank you to all of you my lovely visitors..... muahhhh....

Onion Pancake II

F.O.R T.H.E S.O.U.L

"Forgiveness is not for the weak.

Being able to forgive those who have wronged you is a mark of spiritual strength and confidence.

When you forgive, you grow, your heart begins to heal, your back straightens up, your eyes clear so that you can see the road ahead.

Anger is a spiritual sickness, but when you forgive, you live."


~ Mufti Ismail Menk ~

This morning, I have no idea what to serve mom for her breakfast. She is still on soft diet, so nasi lemak is out of the story. Not only it is hard but also spicy. After sending the boys to school, I went straight into the kitchen and wallah.. an idea popped into my head. Why not make some Onion Pancake as there is some chicken curry leftovers.

I was too lazy to check my blog for the recipe that I once made before, so I just chuck in whatever I feel and think approriate! Hahaha... like people use to say..."kita yang buat dia".. so yes, this was what I managed to produce. And I must say, it tasted better than the previous one... or was I that hungry just now? Ahahahahaha.....

Yesterday, my entry was about MOM, I AM HUNGRY!! Well today, the words are more or less the same but with a great different meaning.

My entry today is about MY MOM IS HUNGRY!

In the first situation... it is the kids asking for food. But in the second one, it is my mom's dish that I have to prepare. Mom is still on soft diet and being a not creative kind of person, I have to google for new recipes. What will I do without the internet! Huhu.. it's not only me who will suffer but also my mom who will have no choice but to survive on the same taste everyday! Hahaha....

Anyway, for today, I've decided to try something from my favourite forum... FORUM CARI (where my journey in this cyberworld actually starts!). Thank you to Dealova_fan for the recipe.

Finger Food : Bread Sausage Rolls

Everytime, when it is school holidays, and when the kids are at home, the most common sentence that can be heard throughout the day is...mom, I am hungry! No matter how old your kids are, the sentence are similar though sometimes said in some other different styles such as...

"What's for breakfast/lunch/tea/dinner/supper mom?"

or in a more 'pleasing' or 'bodek'-ing way..

"Hmmmm.... something smells really good. My mom is definately a good cook. Can I eat now?" Hahaha....

So the moms had to be prepared. If the mom is fully energetic and has all the time in the world, then she might prepare something awesome, but if she is always in a hurry to do this and that, go here and there, then finger food sounds nice too... as long as the tummy is filled... that's good enough.

Made these a couple of days ago for Syahmi to enjoy with his friends. Effortless, yet filling. Next time round, if I do have extra time, I will add a slice of cheese to the roll.... yummmmm......


FINGER FOOD - BREAD SAUSAGE ROLLS
Posted by MamaFaMi
Yields : 20 pieces

Ingredients :

10 pieces white bread
10 beef/chicken sausages (I used Ramly brand)
bread crumbs
1 egg - lightly beaten
cooking oil

To make the 'flour glue' :

1 teaspoon flour
a bit of water

Mix both ingredients to form paste. Set aside.

Method :

1. Roll thin the white bread.
2. Place the sausage at the edge of the bread and roll till the other end.
3. Seal using the 'flour glue'. Set aside. Repeat the same process till all 10 pieces are done.
4. Heat enough oil in a wok.
5. When the oil is hot, dip the bread roll into the egg and coat with breadcrumbs.
6. Fry till golden brown. It doesn't take long to fry so do not leave the rolls unattended.
7. Remove from oil, onto the kitchen towel.
8. Cut the roll into two and serve warm.

Rainbow Chiffon Cake

T.H.E R.A.M.B.L.I.N.G.S

Have you ever received phone calls on your cellphone, from any banks, offering you this programme, that scheme and whatsoever? Well, I have, a couple of times. They will first ask, may i speak to so and so, and when you said you are the person, then they will ask you, can you spare some time to hear to what they have to say... right?

Well my problem is, everytime I said, I am busy and I have no time to spare, they said they will call back. And when I said there is no need to call as I am not interested, they said, it's okay, we will call you back. Gosh... they never give up huh?

Indeed she called again, using another number! When she introduced herself as Miss X from Bank Y, I said, sorry I am not interested as I am just a housewife with no income. She kept talking and I kept answering, i am not interested in banks. Then she said, if I said I am not interested in banks, then don't I have any bank accounts? Goodness... whatever bank accounts I have and how many bank accounts that I hold is my personal matter and I don't have to tell the whole world right? Gosh... I almost lost my patience. What's more, that time my mind was fully occupied with a sick mom, a child sitting for exam and my medical check up to worry about! I can understand, that is part of their job but sometimes they just have to be careful when choosing their words..... But I am sure I wasn't rude with her, I just said my final 'not interested', sorry and thank you and I hung up.....


T.H.E R.E.C.I.P.E

Stumbled upon the lovely looking Rainbow Chiffon Cake at DG's Blog quite sometime ago. Copied it down and forgotten all about it until last Sunday. I thought had enough with chiffons because the latest Oreo Blueberry Chiffon Cake that I made last Saturday, using the very same recipe as this one, didn't turn out as I want it to be. I don't really know what went wrong. I was kind of frusterated. But being me, I won't give up easily and yes... I dare myself to try another chiffon recipe. I made the right decision.

Thank you to DG of Tested and Tasted for sharing this lovely recipe from her Kevin Chai’s book ‘Chiffon Cake is done’.

Banana Cake

T.H.E R.A.M.B.L.I.N.G.S

Sorry all... I've vanished for quite sometime.. I know... not by choice actually.. and Mak Teh dear... it's not any story books to be blamed as I didn't even have time to sit and read. Towards the end of the day, after I'm done with everything, the moment I laid my head on my pillow... I'm off....

Well, reason being... my mom came back from Bangi in poor health. Had to nurse her and at times feeling really hopeless as I don't really know how else can I help her ease her pain in the stomach. She had been sick for four days before coming back to our house and on the fifth day, hubby said to bring mom to KPJ Selangor and see a specialist. Alhamdulillah my hubby was on leave that Monday (5th November, 2012) and he helped sent Syahmi and Hafiz to school. It was the first day of the SPM Examination for 2012. Hubby even stayed back for the Solat Hajat at school. Sorry dear Syahmi, I can't be there for you this time. But rest assure my duaas will be with you forever.

After consulting with the specialist, he suggested to do the endoscopy on mom and an appointment was set the next day. From the result, alhamdulillah, there are no tumor or what so ever. She has few lines of ulcers and virus in her stomach. Other than that, everything looked good. That was what Dr Lim said. Alhamdulillah, what a relief. So now, she is recuperating at our place and hope she will recover soon. Amin.
