Had yet another mad dash at the kitchen yesterday afternoon heehee! And the night before I made begedil to be frozen. One of the many things I want to do checked! But I need to do another batch cos this one was given to MIL.
Yesterday I didn't go back to office after check-up, went to Chong Pang instead for some bit of marketing, and then to my mum's house to get some stuff which I was lazy to get on my own like ikan bilis and belacan and even glass bottles to store used oil. HAHA. My mum's house, the pantry :)
Went home to start on the big project - laksa! Haha. I think I shall not use ikan kembung for laksa anymore. While it is the healthier option, using ikan bilis is WAAAYYY easier. No need to boil the fish, peel the flesh, remove those many many bones, pound the flesh. And I must remember to slice the lemongrass really really thinly. When my mum told me to slice thinly, I thought I could take the short cut and cut anyhow cos I'll be blendering it anyway, but you'll end up with coarsely chopped lemongrass. Note to self, don't ignore mum's advice on cooking.
Cooked too much laksa actually hahahha, so I asked Baby Sister if she wanted to eat dinner at my house, and she dragged my parents along too!
First guests to our house with me cooking! Mum says I could've put in more salt, father is okay with it. Husband didn't give any comments. Oh well. I think it's a good effort (haha praise own self) but could be improved.
Thinking of making sambal godok next! Hehe. Have too much tahu (I asked for 3 pieces, uncle gave me 5) and I have tempeh and prawns too! So exciting! Would go well with Other Half's favourite kicap marinated fried chicken!
Celebrating future BIL's birthday tomorrow. Was thinking of baking this:
Looks yummy doesn't it! It's a Condensed Milk Pound Cake from Curlybabe's Satisfaction. Looks pretty simple, but I don't have pretty moulds yet or maybe I should get one hurhur!! Am excited! :)
