Mushroom and Sausage Omelette

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

I have always dread how my Mondays look like. Why? Because, the same pattern will continue for the whole week, normally! Like this week, it started with a 'hectic-and-full-of-surprises-plus-adhoc-plans' kind of Monday. And till today, it stays the same!

All I wanted to do today was just to go for my morning walks and come back to my home sweet home and do my ironing. But did I do that? Well, I did that PLUS many others! And now, it is only past 9.30pm, I think I'm quite drained out! Hahaha... maklumlah umur-umur cenggini kan....

So after posting this entry, I'm going to shut down the computer, grab a book, lie down on the bed and then we'll see...it is either me reading the book or should it be the other way round... hahahaha...

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

The idea came from trying to clean my fridge and trying to finish off the eggs so that I can get a new fresh tray of eggs.


MUSHROOM AND SAUSAGE OMELETTE
Posted by MamaFaMi

Ingredients :

3 eggs
5 button mushrooms - sliced thinly
some oyster musrooms - tear to small pieces
sausages - sliced thinly
1/2 fresh red chillie - diced
1/2 holland onion - diced
scallion - cut to small pieces
blackpepper
salt to taste

a bit of cooking oil (I used olive oil)

Method :

1. Beat the eggs in a bowl and add the rest of the ingredients.
2. Heat the skillet with a bit of oil then pour the mixture into the pan.
3. While the eggs are firm on the bottom, but still slightly runny on top, sprinkle the sausages over the eggs. Continue cooking the omelette until the eggs bubble on top.
3. Gently flip the omelette to the other side. Keep cooking for another minute or two, until the omelette is no longer runny.
4. Remove from heat and ready to serve.



Have a nice day!

Cheese Cake Meleleh

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





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

"No amount of guilt can change the past,
and no amount of worrying can change the future.
Go easy on yourself,
for the outcome fo all affairs
is determined by God's decree.

If something is meant to go elsewhere,
it will never come your way,
but if it is yours by destiny,
from it you cannot flee."

- Sayyidina Umar ibn al-Khattab (RA)

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

The 'journey' of my sponge cake does not end there. I've transformed it into another delicious cake, CHEESE CAKE MELELEH.

This cake was made famous quite some time ago, but I just didn't have the heart or shall I say, the courage to try it out, just because of my 'jinx' towards sponge cakes. But when I tasted this cake that I bought from MABIQ (lovely place to dine. Lovely food, lots of variety and very reasonable price too) in Kuantan when we had lunch there two weeks ago, I just fell in love with it. So I said to myself, I've just got to try this out and I did... I can now heave a sigh of relief for not having to crave for this cake anymore...hahaha...

Sponge Cake (sweet4ever)

I have always had these 'jinx' when it comes to baking sponge cakes. I don't really know why, though I've followed exactly what the recipe said, but still, it will end up either being heavy or 'very not a sponge cake should look like'. And saddest part is, it will rise up nicely in the oven, and makes my heart fills with great joy and happiness but soon as it comes out of the oven.... pooofffff... it will be like a punctured tyre! Huwaaa... 

But did I give up? No I didn't! Yes, I am a stubborn person. I will keep trying and pray for the best. There are a few times I managed to get it right. Alhamdulillah. And In Sha Allah I will never give up. For this recipe, I have to thank Sweet4ever and my dear sifoo Ummi Kuantan for suggesting this lovely recipe to me. May Allah bless you both.

Marbled Oil Cake

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

My sister said, I am emotionally disturbed at the moment. And I think I can't deny that. Thanks to these few Malay novels that I have just finished reading. They really drained out my energy. Not the author to be blamed, neither my sister who passed me the books to read, but all blames should go to me, myself and I. Why can't I be like my sister. She read loads, and not just lots, of books but she always remained calm. Unfortunately I am unable to do the same. I think I am so full of emotions! Hahahaha....

The ratings that I gave to each book is based on how I like the story. And not to judge the writer's writing. I appreciate all authors. Because they have the talent to write and to produce books where else I don't. So yes, if I enjoyed reading the story, the book will surely get good ratings from me.

My sister told me to take a break from reading but I can't afford to do that. I challenged myself to read 27 books this year and to date, I've just finished 6. Still a loooong way to go... will I manage? I will... I can... I have to!!!! Chaiyok mama!!!!!

I was clearing my folders and stumbled into these photos. Rather than let it 'freeze' in the folder and forgotten all about it, might as well i post them in here.


Made these cuppies for Azimah's boss quite sometime back...

Labu masak lemak dengan pucuk manis

Dua minggu senyap...
Hihihi.. macamlah tak biasa pulak kan. Nama pun MamaFaMi. Kejap ada...lamaaaa tak de. Nak buat cemana. Kita hanya merancang, Allah yang menentukan. Ku sangka tak busy, tapi sebaliknya pula yang terjadi. Tetapi syukur ke Hadhrat Illahi, semuanya telah berjaya diselesaikan dengan sebaik yang terdaya. Semoga kita semua memperolehi keredhaan Allah dalam setiap perkara baik yang kita lakukan, In Shaa Allah.

Pasal resepi pulak, inilah pertama kali mama memasak menggunakan daun pucuk manis. Sebenarnya tak kenal pun daun ni. Tapi pada suatu hari yang indah (achewa), semasa mama berhenti beli ikan kat gerai tepi jalan, adalah makcik ni jual sayur-sayur kampung. Dialah yang beritahu daun pucuk manis ni. Teruja nak mencuba, belilah seikat. Maka terjadilah kejadian labu masak lemak pucuk manis versi mama. Usah ditanya sukatan dan usah ditanya mengapa resepinya macam ni sebab mama hentam je masuk apa yang mama rasa nak masukkan. Hasilnya... sedaplah di tekak mama! Tekak anda semua? Tak tahulah pulak.. tak jamin... :)
