campINC: MockCamp

Today was definitely a fun day! :)

Went for mock camp! Super tiring lah, I really can't run you know. The last time I went jogging was... Err... Can't remember. Haha! And hor, not like my jogging is power lah. I is super slow. As long as it's not walking, I'll call it jogging. HAHA. Gone are the days of getting NAPFA test timings...

Anyway! I am glad I went for this, even though I don't really know the people there. Haven't been meeting new people a lot. I'm quite an anti-social. Need to mix more.

It's fun to relive the uni days of camps and games. Camps like this brings back memories of the fun fun times. A deviation from the usual working life. It's enriching, refreshing. Makes me feel young. Wahahaha! Not that I'm old, but being with undergrads brings back to uni days! Oh how I love those years :) Best schooling years of my life! And... It's been ages since I went for a school camp! Ooh! Someone said I look young too! Whee~ AHHAHA. Oh wells.

The only bad thing about today is that I have become the Queen of Biratness. All that running and being exposed to the hot sun made my face super red and birat, and the hotness on the face hasn't gone away till now! Sian. I hope I don't get too dark because of today and the camp later. Once Queen of Biratness becomes tanned, it's difficult to un-tan.

But but! Definitely looking forward to the actual camp! I hope my students will be in my group ;)

Oh yah! I wanna go Botanic Gardens again! Please please please!!! :))) This time, no running of course.

Bubur Asyura

Finally made this! Have been wanting to do so cos this porridge has loads of nuts. Not exactly a healthy porridge though since there's coconut milk. I already have most of the ingredients and had the time, so why not! I realise there's different types of bubur Asyura but I settled for the one closest to us, the Johor version . There's a lottt of ingredients, so I'll list in order of which goes into the pot first. I also boiled the mutton a day earlier so I can collect and throw away the fat from the stock. Bubur Asyura Saute: 1 stalk lemongrass 1 cinnamon stick 1 star anise 3 cardamoms 5 cloves 2 big onions, sliced 1 inch ginger, sliced 3 garlic, sliced 10 cups water (half is mutton stock, half water) 1 cup rice, washed 300g mutton, already cooked and shredded 1 tbsp soto powder 1/3 cup dhal, soaked in water for 10 min 1/3 cup peanuts, washed 1 1/2 carrots, diced 1 can chickpeas, washed 1 can kacang pool, washed 1/2 can sweet corn, washed 1 small box coconut milk Heat o...

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...

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...
