supposingly, we were entitled for 2 nights stay but then reali reali cant make it to stay for 2 nights cos stupid fatty liangzai wanna keep the leave for his CNY wor. so hv to squeeze it to 1 night instead. so liangzai hv to call up the person in charge and we got 2 rooms instead lo. so stil the same rite? one thing different is.. one whole family is joining the trip together. more fun, more merrier. yahoo~~

ok lar.. i dowan to crap so much. let the pics to do the speaking. and i jus briefly tell u guys wat happened lar.. wahahha..

the hotel environment not bad. i love the lobby veli much cos the strong breeze from the beach blew to the lobby and feel so relax when i sat there and enjoying the nite view from the hotel. wow.. i nearly fell asleep while sitting there.


plus there's a nice restaurant + lounge outside the restaurant. since it's ard xmas time, i could hear a peaceful xmas songs ard. wow.. can u imagine it? so nice.... plus u can see all the cute kids playing in the pool. so so warm. cos parents are there joining the kids too. i think tat's the happiest moments rite?

Pasta for Dinner

haha.. i kno lotsa u guys read the title and u wil vomit rite? i guess u guys mus be wondering how come this family likes spagetti so much.. ** giggles ** yes!! we love spagetti veli much especially the traditional tomato sauce. of cos.. some of the ingredients will change once a while.

tis time, instead of using the linguine tat we normally used, we changed it to BUTTERFLY-shaped pasta. yup!! BUTTERFLY-shaped.

ya.. this is the one ok?? wat to do wif them? aiks ** smash on forehead twice ** boil them lor..


while boiling the pasta.. hee hee.. prepare the ingredients.. ok.. can tomato puree, baby corns, luncheon meat, burger meat and onions. remember to get indian onions and thai onions. ok.. wat's the difference btw tat 2 types of onions? hmm.. indian onions will bring a sweet taste when u boil the gravy and thai will make the gravy extra fragrance...

steps
1) add a lil oil to a heated wok.. then fry the onions until they turn brownish..
2) then add the meat and fry them.. mix well with the onions and meat..
3) once the meat turn brownish, add in tomato puree and baby corns.
4) add in a can of water and mix well together the mixture again..
5) let it simmer for abt 10-15mins

wanna see how the chefs working in the kitchen??

** eessshhh eeesshhh ** how come these 2 sama pattern one.. wahaha.. of cos lar.. if not, how can we click together rite? wow~~ busy busy...

ok.. the pasta is ready.. so i get a container.. add in 2-3 spoons corn oil (depends on how much pasta u're preparing) and oregano leaves.. yahoo~~ extra extra leaves. y?? taste better..

then mix well.. so it wil turn to be like this...


ahem... apa macam?? looks good?? not ready yet..

once the gravy is ready, get the amount of pasta tat u wan and add in the gravy wif the meat and corns.. so it wil b like this..

TA DA!!! yummy yummy rite?? so apa macam?? boleh ar??

Rasa Sayang Porridge

it's been some time since i cook porridge. ** then how come suddenly u cook it yesterday?? ** ya hor.. y ar?? my liangzai lar.. got food poisoning. so pathetic... his tummy reali sth wrong lar.. last few days oledi bloated like having 6 months pregnancy d. and it hit him on sunday @ 3am. diarrhea, vomiting and tummy ache. aiyo... so ke lian. see oledi oso heart pain. but u guys kno lar.. 3 AM ler?? i oledi fainted together wif my pillow and bolster. no time to care for him.. wahhaha.. wat a 'WIFEY'..

but i did offered to take care of him yesterday. he insisted me to go to work. then ok lor.. or else where got so many posts for u guys to read on rite? hahaha.. faster say thanks to him ya.

back from work. then called him for dinner. he said we go outside makan.. he will take those soup soup stuff. but i think not so good oso lar. even he's taking the soup stuff, the cook will add in some fried lard(猪油) into the soup. so better not rite? too oily. not good for food poisoning patient. so i decided to cook porridge since i got carrots and baby corns at home.

so my porridge. easy one. everything in one pot and settle at one time. saves time and energy. i'm a lazy pig. dun like those super extra extremely troublesome thingy to prepare. tat's y go for easy steps.

Rasa Sayang Porridge
Ingredients
1) Carrot (half of the size.. er.. depends on how big is the carrot oso.. if baby carrot, then nonit half lor. instead hv to double the size.) - diced it.
2) Baby Corns - half of the can. (** ya.. i kno Can stuff not good. but this is wat i hv at home)
3) Scallops (small size) - 7-10 pieces
4) Rice - 1.5 Cups

Steps
1) Put all the ingredients into the pot and add in water. The water amount will be double of the rice or depends on how watery u wan the porridge to be. haha... :P mine turn out as congee..
2) Let it boil.
3) Add in sesame oil and a little bit of salt for taste.

Simple rite? I prefer congee than porridge. but liangzai likes porridge. so follow his style lor.
er.. i heard someone said sth.. **wah.. u stil add in scallops to ur porridge ar??" yes, dear.. taste better... if can, boil some anchovies(ikan bilis) soup + scallops first. then get the anchovies out. then mix together in ur porridge. lagi best..

ok.. this time i remember to take pic.. hehe :P


so.. how is it? ok??

15 Min Chicken Rice..

** u sure ur chicken rice takes onli 15min completely cooked wif the rice and chicken? **
** yes, my dear **
** ok.. then u better share this out in ur blog.. **

well, another conversation wif my fren. damn 38. since she wanna kno the steps, oklar.. i blogged it out. actuali, i read abt this on My Simple Kitchen last friday. normally when i cooked chicken rice, i wil used my wok to do so. but this time, i decided to learn from wat i'd read. so instead of using my wok, i use rice cooker.

ok.. the ingredients are stated in the link above. but i jus do it my own style. not following much too. :)... earli morning, get chicken breast out from the fridge and defrost it. well, i had a lunch date session wif Janice and Wilson in Neway karaoke. so i nit to get everything done b4 11am wic i'm supposed to get out from the house at tat time.

to get the chicken marinated completely into the meat, my mum taught me a way of doing so. pick a fork and poke on the meat.. wahahha.. easy ler.. ok.. i poke a few times on the chicken. then get the onions and ginger peeled nicely. and get ready for me to tumbuk...

er.. wat's this called?? can someone pls tel me??? my mum bought this for me. cos she said use this to tumbuk chili veli nice compared to those blended one. and she's correct.

P/S: ok.. this is called Batu Lesung as wat Little Inbox mentioned in my comment. Thanks, Inbox!
yahoo~~ peiyun told me d... it's MORTAR & PESTLE. omg!! ** sweating ** i shld hv b extremely hardworking when i'm younger. see.. kids out there.. dun play too much ar.. or else wil bcome like jie jie. simple english oso kenot remember... haha

and i tumbuk the onions and ginger til it look like this....

and i squeezed the juice out from mixture of ginger and onions into my chicken and marinate it for a few hours. (er.. i finished this abt 10.45am and cooked it at 7pm)..


at nite, i took out the mixture tat i tumbuk earlier this morning and chopped garlic from the fridge. stir fried them until fragrant. then i added in the juice leftover for the chicken marinating. stir fried again. then add in water (depends on the amount of rice u're cooking.. normally 1 cup of water = 1 cup of rice), soy sauce and sesame oil. then i poured the mixture to the rice cooker.. and then, place the chicken on top. so it look like this. and let it cook. yahoo~~ save job and time...


TA DA!! job completed.. tested the taste.. oppss.. forgot to add in a lil bit of salt.. haha.. so guess wat? i add in light soy sauce on the rice and i kacau kacau it. then let it keep warm a while.


so.. the left is my portion and the right is liangzai's one. how come din cut the chicken into pieces?? nop.. i din.. cos onli 1 chicken breast so i jus tore it up into half. i took a bit and the rest goes to liangzai's tummy.


haha.. finished it within 5 mins.. damn hungry but liangzai stil full wor.. so he ate a bit.


funny stuff?? er.. ya.. rice not enuff actuali.. haha... when i'm preparing the rice, i jus realised tat the rice is not enuff. luckily we had heavy tea break. wahahhaha... well, this portion is ngam ngam nice for 1 person (liangzai's size ok?? if my size ar, sure will left one small bowl one).. wahhaha :P

if u wan the rice and the chicken to taste even more better, add in pandan leaves. tumbuk together wif the ginger and onions and juiced it. then add some pandan leaves when u're cooking the rice. it's reali taste better. :)
