DORY NIGHT ...

Salam semua..

Tonite di atas permintaan Mr. Dad, i cooked for dinner ... a simple one of course ... :D ... Mr. Dad nak makan ikan dory in sweet sour sauce ... my version would be ala-ala oriental, gitu ... wahh !! ini sebab, the original ingredients for the sauce tu takde ... I alter sikit ... hi hi hiii, feeling2 chef lah pulakk ... I letak mix vege and belahan cili merah & cili hijau aje ... jadi lah ek ...

Selesai masak lauk pauk dinner, I decided to pan grill a small piece of dory ... saje je nak try, test, rasa  ... he he heee ... I grill kan jugak 2 pieces of salisbury steak for Mr. Dad ... then I tambah some simple garden salad to go with the grilled items ... he he heee ..


taraaa ... tak lengkap sebab takde fries ... malas nak goreng ... he heheheee ...

I cuma marinate the dory with some bawang putih cincang, some cracked black pepper, some oyster sauce, some bbq sos and a little dash of maggi sesoning sos ... pastu letak dlm aluminium foil ... ooo and before you balut the dory with the foil, sprinkle the dory with some olive oil ... then, balut and ready to be pan grilled ... he heheh ... simple kann ... :p

Seronok tengok the kiddos and Mr. Dad makan tadi ... actually memang they will enjoy whatever yg I cooked for them ... alhamdulillah ... tu yang  buat I selalu bersemangat nak masak for them whenever they ask me to .... hi hi hihiiii ... *_* ...

CAMPING, ITIK AND RENDANG ....

Salam semua,

Last weekend (14 & 15 April), kami sekeluarga tak keman-mana (which is sangatlah odd ... sebab, kami sekeluarga memang jarang lekat di rumah during weekend) ... sebabnya, Zulaikha was involved in a camping program yang dianjurkan oleh persatuan penduduk fasa yang kami tinggal now ... persatuan penduduk ni sangat aktif ... byk aktiviti dan program dah dorang buat ... cumanya we all je yang kurang join ... almaklum ler, kurang lekat di rumah during weekends ... he heheheeee ...

Zulaikha sangat ler teruja dengan program ni ... so, she dah beriya-iya susun baju and a few items utk program nih ... myself and Mr. Dad pun memang encourage dia to join this program ... suruh dia belajar hidup dalam serba kekurangan ... hik hik hik ...

Location utk perkemahan ni dekat aje dengan rumah ... depan rumah je yang sebenarnya ... tapi, we told Zulaikha not to come back home ... balik utk mandi aje ... nak buang hajat besar or kecil kena pergi ke rumah yang telah disediakan ... rumah Kak Aisyah ... hehehehe eee ... mula2 tu, kena bawak kemah sendiri ... kemudian tak jadi lah pulak sebab dapat kemah tentera ... ihsan daripada pengkalan angkatan tentera yang berdekatan ... alhamdulillah ...

teruja duduk dalam camp ...


keletihan ...



makan time ....


beratur tuk mendapatkan makanan ... cian nyer dia ...



solat berjemaah ... alhamdulillah ...


While the children are busy with their camping activities, the mommys were busy cooking for their meals ... wahh ... bukan main mewah makan budak-budak ni ... kalau camping betul-betul dalam hutan, tak merasa kot makanan yang sedap-sedap ... 4 meals per day .. breakfast, lunch, tea-time and BBQ dinner for the1st day ... 2nd day ada 2 meals ... breakfast and lunch ...

I get to learn how to cook rendang itik ... wow ! ... tak pernah pun makan itik ... memula tu rasa cam takut-takut nak makan ... sekali rasa ... hah ! amek ko ... sedap lah pulak ... thanks to Kak Izah selaku tukang masak ... memang byk tips Kak Izah ni kasi tentang memasak ... sedap gila kakak ni masak I tell you !! ... hihihihiiii ...

itik ... kuek kuek kuekkk ...


dah jadi rendang ... mmmm yummmy ! ...


Sekali -sekala mencuba makan makanan yang tak pernah dimakan ... sedap jugak daging itik nih ... hihihihiii ...
