PURI WITH POTATO CURRY

Something for breakfast or even dinner....

Makan apaw! I got the recipe for the puri from 

the internet and it turned pretty okay...hee hee!

Potato curry...enough said!

All you need now is some ice lemon tea

or tea tarik!

Breakfast ideas! Breakfast, breakfast! What to eat for breakfast?

Breakfast, breakfast! What to eat for breakfast?

Quite a plateful here. Toasts, crispy turkey ham, instant mashed potatoes,

scrambled eggs (a bit dry, don't like it too runny) and baked beans!

Polish it off with a nice mug of warm tea!

Ayam penyet panggang!

Ayam penyet panggang!

Recipe: YouTube

Hari Malaysia, so we decided to try making our own 

ayam penyet bakar! 

Lots of smoke...

Nice charred bits!

The sambal bit. My sister added capsicum so that

it wasn't too spicy and poor me 

can eat it.

And the end product! Multi grain rice, 

ayam penyet panggang and the sambal.

No time to make the tauhu and tempe!

Aglio Olio

Aglio Olio 

Simple yet satisfying. A meatless meal with good old olive oil,

capsicum and crushed Korean seaweed from the box. 

And of course TONNES of garlic!

Teatime treats - bubur pulut hitam and apam gula hangus

Teatime treats!

Here's some ideas for tea or if you just feel like having something sweet!

Bubur pulut hitam (black glutinous rice)

Apam gula hangus eaten with grated coconut

Scones, with eggs and no eggs!

Late night baking; scones!

My sister just, just made these scones. They may not look perfect 

but they taste yummy! Just break it into half, 

slather a generous amount of butter/jam and chomp away! :)

Yee mee

Vegetarian yee mee

 

Sometimes meatless meals can be nice. We made this for dinner last night. Yee mee with tonnes of veggies and mushrooms! The bird's eye chillies are home grown!

Tapau lunch

Lunch from home

Mee sua with chicken cooked with soy and oyster sauce. Just blanch the mee sua and you can replace the soy sauce chicken breasts with either store bought chicken (Ayam Mas black pepper chicken is good), or fried chicken from yesterday's dinner or just any leftovers. You can even eat the noodles with plain old nuggets. Anything that works for you! Tapau food from home, bring bekal to work, you can really save!

Porridge

Porridge

Congee, porridge! Chicken, fish or just plain rice porridge. Good to eat at any time and not necessarily when you're under the weather. Just add the usual condiments, fried anchovies, fresh ginger, salted veggies, coriander, fried garlic bits, white pepper, salted eggs, salted fish, chilli flakes or even kimchi! Whatever works for you!

Kuih and cakes

Homemade goodies....

My sister loves to bake and potter around the kitchen. Here are some of her "experiments"! She's at cakesarangkimjunsu.blogspot.com

Peach pie

Karipap pusing

Lompang

Bingka cheese

Homemade chicken patties

I've always wanted to start a blog but never really got around doing so. I posted most of my food/eating adventures on Facebook. So most of these pictures here are from there.

Let's start with homemade food! Chicken patties made from the breast meat with mushroom sauce and instant mashed potatoes!
