Raya in Perak
|
|
Salam to all my dear friends. As promised this is the 2nd part of our Raya this year in Perak. We arrived Ipoh on the 2nd Raya nite & we were there until end of the week except for hubby as he started working on Thursday. Since I have more time spent in Ipoh, had the chance to visit most of my relatives & ex schoolmates but not much pix taken as too busy chatting & eating InsyaAllah we'll meet again in the next entry. Thank you for visiting
3rd Raya at Pak Nan's place (Bukit Gantang)

Raya in Johor
|
|
Salam everyone. Guess some are still in Raya mood . I took a whole week of leave & resume work on Monday. Wanted to update earlier but there were other priorities. This time we went back to Muar & later to Ipoh on 2nd Raya. Raya was great but Nabilah had fever 2 days before raya & she was really moody on the 1st day of Raya. As usual we had the traditional Raya dishes ketupat & the gang. Additionally hubby took the effort to prepare about 15 sticks of lemang & it turned out yummy. Here's some of the pix taken in Muar. Since Nabilah kept clinging coudn't do much snapping. Till then, next change....Raya in Perak.

Western Cooking Class- Impiana KLCC Hotel & Spa
|
|
Sat,15 August 2009
Received the invitation from Impiana KLCC Hotel & Spa for this class. I didn't get much details from the organizer before confirming my attendance via email. The event started from 12pm ie buffet lunch at Tonka Bean and the class started at 2pm. The chef for the day is a Chinese muslim (I forgot his name) & was assist by his co chef. Well, I expected to learn something advance on western cooking but the module was on pizza preparation plus introduction to types of pasta. Unlike the course I attended at MARDI which everything was done by the industrial machine, this time we had to knead the dough manually. My I tell you, it's quite tough. After leaving the dough for fermentation we were brought to the industrial kitchen to prepare the pizza sauce. Done with the sauce we then prepared the pizza with its sauce & varieties of topping of your choice. It took about 20 minutes to bake & it was for us to take home. Overall it was fun getting cooking tips, knowledge on cooking ingredients & new friends there.Some of the pix that I managed to take..too busy with d pizza

Kuetiaw kari Superkinta
Those who's from Ipoh will know where Superkinta is. It's a shopping mall which was located on top of Pasar Besar Ipoh. However it had ceased operation a few years ago & had been abandoned since then. However the Pasar Besar is still around that makes the building still functioning.
During my chilhood time, I used to follow my parents for their weekend marketing. Usually we'd drop by to have this kuetiaw kari which was very famous then. Am not sure if they're still selling. My mom managed to get their secret recipe & till now it's one of our favourite menu. It's very simple but yummy.
Ingredients
A packet of kuetiaw
10 shallot
5 garlic
ginger - thumbsize
galangal - thumbsize
4 lemon grass
4 candlenut
6 tbs curry powder
coconut milk
sliced chicken
sliced beef
fishball
dried tofu
salt
cooking oil
Garnishing
Red chilli
Parsley
Fried shallot
Bean sprout
Sambal tumis (optional)
Method
Blend together shallot, garlic, ginger galangal & candlenut
Pound the lemon grass & leave aside.
Heat the oil in a large pot
Pour in the blended item & lemon grass
Saute till fragrant & add in curry powder
Put in the chicken & beef and leave it to tender
Add in the fishball & coconut milk
Leave it to boil
Lastly put in the dried tofu & salt.
Serve with kuetiaw & garnishing.

Kota Kinabalu-Finale
|
|
Salam everyone. As mentioned in the last entry, here's the final part of the trip. It was a very tight schedule as we started out early in the morning and it ended in the evening where we were sent straight to KK airport. It was a great KK city tour but I'm planning to visit again as we didn't have the chance to see Mount Kinabalu like Mamasya. The places that we visited were
1. Gaya Street - a morning market selling all type of local products.
2. The state mosque & Menara Tun Mustapha
3. Frozen food shop
4. Filipino Market - another shopping heaven
5. Lunch at Restoran Sri Melaka - highly recommended as all the dishes are delicious.
6. House of skulls & Monsopiad Cultural Village - a place to discover the natives' culture.
Sabah is one of the best holiday destination as there are various of people of different ethnic and things that you can see. So let's ZOOM Malaysia to Sabah. I wish I could be in Sipadan Island one fine day insyaAllah

To make it short, here are the pix during JGC co trip to Kota Kinabalu on the 27-28 Dec. We stayed at Sutera Harbour Beach Resort one of the most beautiful hotels I've ever been.

Family Day - Port Dickson
|
|
Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh. Ya Allah it's almost 3 months since the last I updated my page. First & foremost would like to wish Salam Maal Hijrah 1430 & Happy New Year 2009. Frankly I'm missing FP so much especially my dear friends. Too many things ocurred in between be it personal or work. Am still busy now, endlessly...Thousand apologies to my friends for not dropping by for a long time. InsyaAllah will try to visit gradually
I've so many pix to update here but as promised these are the few taken in PD last Oct. Can't put all here, there are too many. We went a day earlier & stayed at Glory Beach Resort. The hotel is fine, not so bad. Next day, off to Guoman where the Family Day was held. Guoman is more luxurious compared to Glory. So happy viewing
TILL NEXT TIME...TQVM 4 VISITING
