Football Iron Fan Food

Watching football alone is boring, even if it's exciting Latin American countries against each other. I was sleepy during the second half of the Brazil-Chile match. And 15 minutes before game ends, I fell asleep. Woke up to find advertisements already playing.

I burnt a hole in my white tudung today!! Actually, it's TWO holes! But I only left the iron for a few seconds only!! How can! I've left the iron for like a minute on t-shirts and other cotton clothes and nothing happened. Darn. Haha so that's my first iron burn hole. Luckily it's just a tudung and not clothes.

Finally! We have the fan up and running! It wasn't spoilt! We thought it was, well it really didn't work when we tried it! So we went back to the store to exchange, but when we were there, we saw that there's no more of the same fan, or the other model similar to it. What's left are small table fans and a bloody expensive standing air-con unit. The air-con unit would be perfect for this tiny room actually! But. It's over 230 pounds. Anyway! The staff tested the fan unit, and it miraculously worked. Thanks ah. Travel all the way carrying the fan and it actually worked. But never mind. Not complaining. The breeze from this fan is AWESOME. I don't even feel any heat! Woohoo!

Birthday's coming! A quarter of a century old! Already got my birthday gift from Other Half like a week ago :) Love it very very much heehee :) Other Half asks me what I wanna do on my birthday. Honestly, I dunoe. I can only think of eating at Nando's at this moment. HAHAHA. Ya I know, lame. Nando's only?! But that's my current craving muahahaha. Actually, I ever pictured a birthday celebration for myself, where the 'feast' will be thosai masala.

It will be an awesome birthday lah! HAHAHA. Ooh ooh! What if it's a thosai masala cake! Double awesome!! :D

Yup. Someday. Someday I'll have it. Ehehehe. Maybe I should start thinking of other birthday celebrations I might wanna have.

Daiso Ramekins

Finally finally went to Daiso!! Wanted to go there for ages already! The first thing I came in, went to the cooking section. Found my ramekins! But they're not white. Oh wells. Can't be choosy for $2 ramekins! There were white ones, but super small white ramekins. And pie tarts too! Oooh so tempting! But I don't know when I'll make tarts hurhur. Actually I'm still thinking what I should bake using these ramekins. I remember having one of those "I wish I had ramekins right now" moments but I can't remember when. Maybe when I was making lava cake . Daiso is evil. It's so cheap you just feel like coming back again! Oh and did I mention there's a $2 weighing scale?! Measures up to a kilo but that's quite alright for baking isn't it! I mean, $2!! Dirt cheap lah. Not sure about the accuracy though. Didn't do much cleaning last weekend, very much spent lazing around at home just like what weekends should be like. I love being at ho...

Apam Balik

I love apam balik. The soft one, with lots of corn. So when @khairulaming posted this on his instagram, I bookmarked it. The recipe is not too much until you get sick of eating apam balik, but I do feel it needs some tweaks to get the pancake king version. But not bad for a first try. 2 cups flour 1/2 cup sugar 1 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp baking soda 2 tbsp melted butter 1 1/4 cups water 1 egg Additional butter for the pan I do feel it needs some salt, more sugar and I shouldn't have liberally made it so thick HAHA. The pan is important too, I kinda burnt some parts of the pancake. Got them bubbles!! This recipe made 2 large pancakes. Also, the filling needs to be sprinkled with sugar liberally (read: 3 tbsp or so), my first try wasn't enough. Pancake was soft even for the next few days after that (kept in the fridge then reheated in the microwave). Husband found it to be acceptable, but I was kinda not okay with it but ohwells. I can tweak it ...

Lontong Goreng Tomyam

When Husband's not around, I become more hardworking HAHAHA. I clean more, I cook more. Saturday I made lontong goreng tomyam for breakfast, and yesterday I made my first ever chicken rice. I even have ingredients to make aglio olio, which I think I'll make either tonight or early tomorrow morning for breakfast. The lontong goreng was a pure experiment, no inferences from recipes and all but it turned out good. Not sure if it's something Husband would eat haha! Lontong Goreng Tomyam 1 packet lontong instant Adabi, cut in cubes 4 tbsp tomyam paste 2 eggs, pre-scrambled Handful of mushrooms Chicken breast, sliced Coriander leaves (I didn't have lemongrass or lime leaves) 1/2-1 tsp salt Fry the tomyam paste in some oil, then add the mushrooms and chicken to cook them. Add some water so the paste doesn't dry up. Add in the scrambled eggs then the lontong cubes and fry until mixed well. For yesterday's chicken rice, I adapted slightly from a reci...
