Junior The Teaching Assistant

Junior came for abah's class (where I'm the student as well) last Saturday! He was the teacher's assistant, and thankfully an obedient one too for the long (in baby hours) four hours. Got up early to get things ready, and I was extra early so I made bread pudding for breakfast!


My breakfast. Hahaha.

This time round I used condensed milk only, no granulated sugar.

Recipe:

6 or 7 slices of bread, torn to about 2 to 3 inch squares
388g tin of condensed milk
2 cups milk
3 eggs
1 box of raisins
Sprinkle of sliced almonds
  1. Tear the bread and arrange them in the pan. I used an 8 by 8 inch square pan.
  2. Sprinkle raisins and almonds in the pan.
  3. Mix milk, condensed milk and eggs together in a bowl and pour into the baking pan.
  4. Preheat the oven to 170 degrees Celsius. Let the bread soak up the custard mixture while waiting for the oven to heat up.
  5. Bake for about 40 minutes.
Yummy soft custardy bread pudding! Almost like my mum's. Almost. Tastes much nicer when it's in room temperature.


More of Junior's experience as a teaching assistant! We came a bit earlier so Junior could get adjusted to the classroom. I set up his play area with the loads of things I brought and I will list down here:
  • colour pencils
  • drawing block
  • bulldozer
  • magnetic drawing board
  • 3 carriage train
  • 1 set of 4 mini books
  • 2 books
  • play mat
  • pillow
I know right! Seems like going to war! This too, is not inclusive of potato soup, water bottle, towel and extra set of clothes haha.


 
Aww he prostrated! Which mother's heart won't melt looking at this! Lovelove my son sooo much. And below are photos of him running around haha




Having a break watching the construction workers at work. He loves cranes and gondolas and diggers.

Junior seems right at home with this mosque. Happily running around the class, and the mosque premises. We also have plans of making him a real teaching assistant when he's bigger! Like helping his dad distribute handouts, taking attendance and so on. May his heart grow closer to the mosque & Islam insyaAllah.

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...

My baby loves this! Recipe adapted from here . 1 onion, sliced 3 cloves garlic, minced 2 packets udon noodles 1 carrot, julienned  250g mushrooms 2 chicken fillet, sliced 2 stalks spring onions 3 tbsp dark soy sauce 2 tbsp oyster sauce 1 tbsp sushi vinegar (replacement for mirin) 2 tsp brown sugar 1 tsp artificial vinegar Recipe doesn't call for onion and garlic but those are pretty much base ingredients for stir fries so might as well. Made this for quick lunch for the kids since they were home alone.

Chicken Rice (just the rice)

Need to jot this down! I have an earlier recipe for Hainanese Chicken Rice but this version is without proper chicken stock hence it's fuss free. Chicken Rice (just the rice) Skins from several boneless chicken thighs 2 tbsp sesame oil 1 lemongrass, bruised 1 onion, sliced 8 garlic cloves, pounded 2 inches ginger, pounded 2 cups rice, washed 3 cups water + 2 cubes chicken stock 1/2 tsp salt 5 knots of pandan leaves Fry the chicken skin until slightly crispy and the oils ooze out, together with the sesame oil. Add in the lemongrass and onions and fry until golden. Add in garlic and ginger. Add in rice and fry for a few minutes before adding the chicken stock water, salt and pandan leaves. Let it come to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer and let it cook for about 15 minutes. I used 4 cups water instead and it was kinda soggy so I'm guessing 3 cups should be sufficient. Also, cooking the rice in a pot is way easier than having to transfer into a rice cooker. Chili for Chicken R...
