Gloom Sunshine Air Marriage

It's a boring, boring day. And gloomy too. I can't decide if gloomy's better than sunny. The sun here's quite bad, and it's not even summer yet. Too glaring! And hermit me spends most of the time in this small little room, maybe my eyes have been too accustomed to the lighting in the room instead. When I go out it's like a vampire in the sun. But seriously! It's bad sun here! At least in Singapore there's clouds to cover the sun. Luckily today and yesterday, it's gloomy and raining after many days of sun. Well the trees need water too once in a few weeks.

Thinking of getting a pair of sunglasses since I forgot to bring mine. Went to a shop yesterday, didn't seem to have many frames to choose from :s And a lot of them are narrow! How to fit a wide, huge face like mine! Some of the frames I tried, the nose bridge didn't even sit on my nose. It was hanging. Bleah.

Feeling pukish again. The air? Or staring too much into the computer? Or my posture? Whatever it is, it sucks. Makes me sleepy too. See. Right now when I'm not typing, my eyes can go all blurry and eyelids drop. Haha!

I was just thinking yesterday, while happily bumming around in the company of Other Half, that two of my closest friends are getting married this year. I smiled. They too will get to enjoy the pleasure of having someone beside you to lean on, or hug or do silly stuff like poke each other's bellies or look for each other's pimples. I wish both of you + partners the best of marriage and happiness :) Very very happy for you :)

Gonna try cooking green curry later. Bought the paste, and the recipe is weird. 50g of paste to 360ml of coconut milk for 200g chicken?!?!?!

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...

Spicy Tuna Sushi Bake & Teriyaki Chicken Sushi Bake

I failed the first time I made sushi bake, so I was kinda apprehensive about this. Added surimi or imitation crab meat since the kids may not want a fully tuna sushi bake, plus it gives a smoother texture.  The recipe uses full tuna and avocado, so I used this recipe lightly to tweak to my own. Tuna Sushi Bake 1 1/2 cups sushi rice Sushi vinegar as per the bottle's instructions 3 chunky tuna cans (Ayam brand) 1 packet of imitation crab meat, boiled and shredded 5 tbsp Japanese mayo 1 tbsp sriracha sauce 3 tbsp mentaiko mayo Teriyaki Chicken Sushi Bake 1 1/2 cups sushi rice Sushi vinegar as per the bottle's instructions 500g chicken boneless thigh, cut into small pieces 1 inch ginger, pound Teriyaki sauce for marinate and for frying Season the top with furikake, sliced seaweed, Japanese mayo and mentaiko mayo. These are a must. Broil or grill for about 8 minutes. These turn out yummy! All the Japanese ingredients were bought on Shopee, from a Malaysian provider.
