Apple Pie Bread Pudding

Ingredients

A. Bread

6 pieces of bread (old multigrain bread will do)
3 eggs
1/2 cup evaporated milk (a bit of sweetened condensed milk will do)
1 tablespoonful of cinnamon powder (quanto basta ... ikut suka)
a bit of vanilla essence (old bottle will do)

B. Apples

3 big green apples / 4 small Granny Smith apples
3 tablespoonful of cornflour to mix (custard pudding flour will do)
1 cup brown sugar (castor sugar will do)

How to
  1. Stack the 6 pieces of bread and cut into small squares (4 x 4) using a bread knife.
  2. Beat 3 eggs + milk + cinnamon and vanilla essence till dissolved.
  3. Soak bread pieces in egg-milk mixture.
  4. Remove soaked bread pieces and place in bread tin for baking.
  5. Peel and cube apples.
  6. Drain apple cubes and add flour and sugar. Mix
  7. Add apples to bread and bake in a small electric oven for 15 minutes or till done.
  8. Serve hot or warm, with/without custard.






Results
  1. Watery bread.
  2. Custard flour is ok but not suitable when mixed with water.
  3. Dry apples on top - cooked and soft, not sour, but still not the expected result.

Errors made
  1. Apple pieces were too large - need smaller chunks.
  2. Can try soften the apple chunks by cooking them first and then add custard flour mixed with some water. Then add sugar and ground cinnamon. That way the apples are cooked.
  3. Watery bread. The excess water entered the bread and gathered at the bottom. Use less water next time. Bread and butter pudding does not need water. Next time mix the egg and milk together and pour on the bread pieces. Then place the stewed apples on top and bake in microwave oven.

Satay dan Kuah Satay

Majid Sate, Kg Baru in KL
http://www.dapurkakjee.com/2011/03/152-satay-dan-kuah-satay.html


Majid Sate berasal dari Alor Gajah, Melaka. Mula meniaga sate lewat 40-an dengan membawa kandar dari Melaka hingga ke Port Dickson. Lepas itu beliau berhijrah ke Kampung Baru, Kuala Lumpur. Di situlah dia melebarkan sayapnya.

Majis Sate cukup famous di Kuala Lumpur. Tanya sahaja mereka yang pernah menikmati sate yang dihasilkan oleh Majid Sate di Campbell Road dulu (sekarang Wilayah complex). Baik yang Cina, Melayu, India dan lain2. Semua akan kata, sate Majid tiada tandingannya dengan sate yang dihasilkan peniaga lain.

Tetapi ramai jugak tidak tahu bahawa arwah Majid juga antara usahawan Melayu pertama di Malaysia (Malaya ketika itu), yang menghantar anaknya belajar ke luar negara dengan perbelanjaan sendiri.

Kjee ingat lagi arwah Bonda bercerita, datuk begitu kecewa apabila memohon biasiswa persekutuan untuk menghantar anak sulongnya Mohd Salleh belajar di London. Permohonannya telah ditolak kerana kononnya mana mungkin anak seorang penjual sate boleh berjaya belajar di luar negara!

Dek kerana kecewa dengan penghinaan yang dilemparkan, datuk pun mengeluarkan belanja sendiri untuk menghantar anaknya belajar Mine Engineering di United Kingdom. Pak Long kembali beberapa tahun kemduian dengan segulung ijazah dalam bidang Engineering!

Jawatan terakhir arwah Pak Long Kjee, Datuk Mohd Salleh Majid ialah sebagai Chief Inspector of Mines Malaysia! Kini beliau sudahpun arwah.

Atuk pernah beritahu Kjee, untuk berjaya sebagai usahawan dalam negara yang mempunyai masyarakat majmuk, seseorang itu kena berkawan baik dengan semua orang tak kira bangsa mahupun keturunan. Arwah boleh bertutur dalam pelbagai bahasa tempatan. Seingat Kjee dia turut boleh bertutur beberapa dialek Cina

Dan kalau dia pergi ke pasar Chow Kit, tak heranlah kalau sekejap dia berbahasa Hokkien, sekejap Kantonis, sekejap cakap India dengan penjual kacang putih dan sekejap lagi vakap bahasa Benggali dengan penjual roti berbangsa Sikh.

Walaupun cita2nya untuk membuka restoran di London tidak kesampaian, namun dia hanya hidup untuk melihat Restoran Majid Satay House di Jalan Ipoh, Kuala Lumpur lewat 60-an dulu.

Setelah pemergiannya, anak2nya Harris dan Rahman (kini keduanya2 arwah) dan anak bongsunya Norhayati, telah membuka rangkaian restoran Sate Anika, bermula di Bukit Bintang Plaza. Kini, rangkaian Restoran Sate Anika sudah tidak wujud lagi.

Al Fatihah buat HAJI ABDUL MAJID HUSSEIN.

---------------

A. SATAY

Bahan2nya:

600 gram daging batang pinang.
1 cawan gula pasir
2 batang serai
2 sudu besar kacang tanah 
1 sudu besar garam
1 sudu besar serbuk kunyit

Caranya:

Daging dibersih2kan urat2 dan lemaknya dan dihiris halus dalam sebesar ibu jari. Kacang tanah disangai tanpa minyak dan dibuang kulitnya. Ricik serai dan tumbuk halus, asingkan dan tumbuk pulak kacang tanah. Masukkan dalam besen semua bahan seperti  gula, garam, kunyit serbuk dan serai serta kacang tumbuk tadi. Gaul rata. Pastu masukkan daging tadi dan gaul sampai rata betul2. Perap selama dua jam. Jangan bubuh sebab air daging tu akan keluar setelah diperap hampir dua jam. Pastu, cucuklah guna lidi daun kelapa atau sekarang orang pakai lidi buluh. Kemudian bakarlah atas tempat bakar yang guna arang. Amik sebatang serai diketuk2 sikit, Kemudian bubuh sikit minyak dalam mangkuk campur air sesudu. Pastu celupkan serai dalam minyak dan tepuk atas satay masa bakar. Balik2kan. Hati2 jangan terbakar lidinya atau daging hangus. Satay ayam pun sama caranya. Beli isi dada ayam. 

(KALAU NAK BUAT SATAY GORENG, TAK PAYAHLAH CUCUK DAGING PERAP. GORENG SAHAJA DAN CURAHKAN KUAH DIATASNYA. ATAU DIMASUKKAN SATAY YANG TELAH DIGORENG DALM PERIUK KUAH)


B. KUAH SATAY

Ada macam2 versi kuah sate. Keluarga sebelah bapak Kjee kat Melaka pun jual sate. Dia orang bubuh biskut Marie sebab nak bagi kuah dia pekat. Ntahlah Kjee dah lupa rasenyer. Tapi kuah sate Majid Satay guna kacang tanah 100% so very de ori. Pastu kita orang guna gula Melaka bukan gula putih. Gula melaka lagi lemak kata arwah mak. Resipi untuk kuah ialah:

Bahan2nya

600 gm kacang tanah yang telah disangai
5 biji bawang besar
½ cawan cili kering dikisar
1 cawan gula melaka
1 cawan minyak 
garam secukup rasa

Cara: 

Kacang tanah mestilah cukup masak sewaktu disangai. Dibuang kulit, disejukkan dan direndam seketika sebelum dikisar. Ketika kisar dalam blender, guna air secukupnya untuk gerakkan blender. Jangan terlalu banyak sangat air. 

Bawang besar di mayang. Kemudian panaskan periuk guna 1 cawan minyak dan tumislah bawang hingga wangi. Kemudian masukkan cili kering kisar dan goreng sampai naik minyak. Apabila sudah naik minyak, masukkan kacang yang telah diblend. Air juga dimasukkan sebenyak kira2 dua cawan. Bila sudah mendidih, masukkan gula melaka dan garam. 

Kuah satay akan menjadi pekat apabila ia sudah sejuk. Jadi, pandai2lah nak agak banyak mana air yang hendak diletak.

Selain makan satay dengan kuah dan nasi himpit, sedap jugak kalau dihiris bawang, cili api bubuh kicap dan dimakan bersama satay. Selain itu, hirisan timun juga suatu kemestian. Selamat mencuba.

Pai Tee


Most Asian countries serve this dish. It is called by different names in different countries. In Malaysia and Singapore, it is called Pie Tee. In Thailand, it is called Kratong. They also make this in the Philippines, but I don't know the Filipino word for this food. In Laos or Vietnam, they add pounded peanuts and chopped lime to the filling.

The shells or cases are prepared ahead of time and stored in air-tight jars or containers.

The filling is either served fresh or cooked the same day.

If served fresh, the prepared filling can be stored cold in an air-tight container. When filling with cold filling, it is stiff and will not enter the shells/cases properly. Forcing the filling into the shells/cases may break them. It becomes messy and does not look nice in the end, but is edible (as in pics below).

If cooked, the filling must be cooled and properly drained to remove as much fluid as possible, or the shells/cases will soak the excess fluid and soften or become soggy when assembled. It is easier to fill the shells/cases with cooked filling as it is soft. Do not overfill - leave some room for sauce.

Pie Tee is served with its own sauce, but any keropok dipping sauce will suffice.

Pie Tee is served at high tea (late evening tea) and for evening birthday parties in Malaysia. It is served alongside tea for adults, or any cordial for children.


Pie Tee filled with fresh filling (uncooked). 


Pie Tee ingredients and cases:

How to make the filling for Pie Tee:

Basic ingredients for making Pie Tee filling
  1. Sengkuang/bangkwang/jicama
  2. Carrots
  3. Cucumber/zucchini
  4. Taugeh
  5. Onion
  6. Udang kering/fresh prawns
  7. cooking oil
  8. salt to taste
  9. soy sauce (kicap masin)
How to make Pie Tee filling
  1. Slice the jicama thinly and slice them again to obtain fine sticks
  2. Do the same for carrots
  3. Do the same for cucumber/zucchini
  4. Remove the taugeh roots and stiff black caps
  5. Clean the dried prawns/fresh prawns
  6. Slice the onion
  7. Fry all ingredients and season with salt and kicap
  8. Cool and drain excess fluid
  9. Use as Pie Tee filling
  10. Serve Pie Tee with sauce - keropok dipping sauce, chili sauce etc

Kek Gula Hangus

Obtained and edited from Aneka Resipi in Facebook on 12 April 2016.


Bahan 1:
1 cawan gula
(3/4 cawan gula untuk kurang manis)
1 cawan air panas
3 sudu besar mentega
Cara membuat:
Gula digoreng dengan api sederhana besar. Bila gula sudah agak cair, masukkan air panas. Hati-hati sebab ia akan meletup-letup. Apa pun, tutup api dan cepat-cepat masukkan air panas tadi sambil standby pegang penutup kuali. Lepas itu, masukkan mentega dan kacau hingga mentega cair. Ketepikan.

Bahan 2:
4 biji telur
3/4 cawan susu pekat
1 cawan tepung gandum
2 sudu kecil soda bikarbonat
1 sudu kecil esen vanila

Cara membuat:
Pukul telur sampai kembang dan pekat.
Masukkan susu pekat. Guna mixer hingga rata. Masukkan tepung dan soda bikarbonat yang diayak terdahulu. Tambahkan esen vanila. Akhir sekali, masukkan gula hangus tadi.
Perap adunan ini selama 3 hingga 4 jam (bertutup) untuk mendapatkan sarang yang cantik.
Bakar atau pun kukus.
A. Bakar selama 1 jam dalam oven pada suhu 160C, gunakan api bawah sahaja. Baki masa terakhir 11 minit pula, gunakan api atas dan bawah.
B. Kukus selama 50-60 minit.

Tips:
Gula boleh terus dikacau dan dibiarkan dalam kuali. Gunakan senduk dan kacau gula, biarkan sampai gelap. Jangan risau; rasanya akan tetap sedap. Rasa gula yang sudah hangus macam rasa coklat. Warnanya akan hitam, tapi macam mana pun terpulang pada anda. Jika inginkan kek berwarna perang koko sikit, jangan hanguskan sangat air gula. Saya suka yang macam ini sebab kurang rasa pahitnya.
Pukul telur jangan lama sebab ia akan keringkan kek. Pukul sekadar telur kuning pecah dan rata, memadai 2-3 minit sahaja.
Masa memasukkan susu dan tepung pun, mesti kacau sekejap sahaja sebab hasilnya nanti kek akan lembab dan lembut.
Warna kek nanti akan bergantung pada warna gula hangus yang anda sediakan.
Aluminium foil mesti digunakan untuk menutup loyang kek supaya kek yang dihasilkan akan lebih cantik daripada diletakkan kain pada sekeliling tudung pengukus. Jika tiada aluminium foil, mesti kena tutup tudung pengukus dengan kain disekelilingnya.

Air Barli Pandan Selasih

Available from Kedai Koop USM on campus
RM2.70 a cup

This refreshing drink is good after giving 1 hour lecture or after PBL. It has several beneficial effects.
  • Barley water - alkaline water and good for kidneys
  • Pandan - aromatic and good for calming effect
  • Selasih - medicinal value; reduces body temperature to normal level; cools the body
This drink has added liquefied sugar (air gula) and is quite sweet. Diluting this drink to 2x its volume is possible as it is quite sweet.

This drink can be taken cool, at room temperature or cold. Warm water can be added to dilute it.




Egg Filled Curry puff

Available from Harmoni Cafe on campus
RM1.80 a piece

This big curry puff contains potatoes and a boiled egg. They are bigger than the usual curry puffs which contain only potatoes, or potatoes and beef.

The egg and potato filling and margarine content in the shell contribute to fat and cholesterol consumption. 

1 big curry puff will suffice for brunch, morning coffee, lunch or evening tea. It is filling.

In the 1960s, they also sold large curry puffs, but that had potato and beef filling - no egg.



Chicken Chop


Available from Harmoni Cafe on campus
RM12 a pack

Contents

1 big but thin piece of fried chicken chop (more batter than chicken)
1 plastic bag of mashed potatoes (replaced with potato wedges if mashed potato runs out)
1 plastic bag of black pepper sauce ... quite a lot of sauce
1 plastic bag of coleslaw ... light and nice
1 big piece of salad green (fresh lettuce)
 2-3 pieces of tomato wedges

The vegetables are packed separately as they will turn limp if packed with the hot chicken chop.



Fried Bihun

Homemade fried bihun is easy to make, but making it delicious is not so easy. It involves manipulating the salt/sugar/soy sauce/tomato sauce ratios, herbs & vegetables content, and wateriness. Sometimes added beef or chicken can spoil the overall taste of the fried bihun. I will share my recipe for making fried bihun for my family.

Many children and adults do not like capsicum in their fried bihun - omit this or use red/green chillies instead.


Ingredients

Optional:
  • Some chicken flesh or beef - cut into small pieces and season with soy sauce and pepper or chilli and tumeric
  • Some vegetables - cabbage, sawi, kangkung, taugeh etc - cut thin strips or 1" length
  • Taufu - add salt, and fry, then cut into small thin pieces
1 packet of bihun ... check for Halal logo. Do not use non Halal bihun. Soak in hot water and drain before frying.
1 medium Bombay onion - diced
3 cloves garlic - crushed
2 Tablespoons palm oil for frying (Murni brand)
1 Tablespoon soy sauce (HABHAL kicap masin)
1 Tablespoon tomato sauce (Life or Del Monte brand)
1 teaspoon sugar (gula halus)
1 teaspoon salt (light pink Himalayan salt)
some hot water for gravy

Additional food
tomatoes - cut into wedges
cucumber - cut thin slices
capsicum - boil first or add to fried bihun towards the end of cooking

Utensils
kuali
bamboo spoon


How to

Heat oil in kuali and fry onion and garlic till fragrant.
Add beef or chicken and fry till cooked.
Add salt to taste.
Add other seasonings - pepper, tomato sauce, soy sauce.
Add vegetables and stir to mix.
Add hot water for some gravy and to prevent sticking.
Once the beef/chicken is cooked, add bihun and stir to mix.
Cook for an additional 10 minutes until mixture is totally cooked.
Remove from fire and serve hot with slices of taufu, capsicum, tomatoes and cucumber.


Parmesan Elbows


This was a dish that my daughter Farah cooked for us. It was delicious. She has the recipe, probably downloaded from the Internet. But I will share my idea of what the ingredients are based on what I think went into the dish. I have named it Parmesan Elbows.

The ground beef and parmesan cheese mixture can also be combined with potatoes and used as filling to make curry puffs (karipap).


Ingredients

Pasta (hollow tube elbows)
Ground beef (Ramli ground beef patties)
1 big Holland onion - chopped into fine squares
3 cloves garlic (optional) - chopped finely
some ground black pepper
Parmesan cheese
salt to taste (quanto basta)
2 Tablespoon palm oil for frying

stainless steel pot for boiling pasta
kuali for frying ground beef
bamboo spoon
some hot water for gravy


How to

(i) Pasta
Boil pasta in metal pot till al dente hardness. 
Add a Tablespoon of cooking oil to prevent sticking. 
Add a pinch of salt.
Once the pasta is cooked al dente, remove and drain. 
Save some pasta water for cooking the ground beef.

(ii) Ground beef and cheese
In kuali, heat oil and fry onion and garlic till fragrant and caramelised.
Add ground beef and stir to mix.
Cook till beef is done and soft - may take 30 - 45 minutes.

Add hot water and pasta water for some gravy and to avoid sticking.
Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Add pepper.
Season with salt.
Add sufficient parmesan cheese (crumbs) and stir to mix.

(iii) Adding pasta 
Add pasta and stir mixture thoroughly.
Remove from fire and serve while still hot.
Can serve with chili sauce.





Beef and Mutton Stew


This stew is good for children and adults. It can be served for Aqiqah and picnics. It takes a long time to prepare and cook, but it is worth cooking it for the family. 

Ingredients

1 big Holland onion (1 labu bawang besar putih)
1 medium Bombay onion (1 labu bawang merah sederhana besar)
5 cloves garlic (5 ulas bawang putih)
1 piece ginger (sekeping halia)
2 pieces galangal (2 keping lengkuas)
Mixed meat:
  •     750 g beef .... quanto basta (ikut suka)
  •     250 g mutton .... quanto basta
3 big potatoes with dark brown skin
2 big carrots
1 packet of black pepper mix
1 packet of Soup Siam mix
2 Tablespoons of palm oil (cooking oil)
1 coriander root, stems and leaves .... cut 1" long 

Utensils
kuali
bamboo spoon
1-2 electric jug of hot water (1.7 litres per jug)

Additional food
Light and fluffy baby buns ... estimate 2 buns per person

How to 

Dice onions and garlic.
Heat oil in kuali and fry onions, garlic, ginger and galangal until fragrant and brown.
Dice meats thinly and add to fried onion mixture. Stir to mix.
Fry until meat changes colour to grey and looks cooked.
Add coriander root, stems and leaves. Stir to mix.
Add hot water and let cook for 1 hour. Add more water if necessary and cook until meat is soft.
Add soup Siam mix and black pepper mix. Stir to mix.
Add salt to taste (quanto basta), but take care not to add too much salt. Let mixture boil at least once after adding the dried mixtures.
Add diced carrots and potatoes. Boil till the carrots and potatoes are of al dente hardness (tak keras dan tak terlalu lembik)
Soup Siam and black pepper mixtures contain a lot of SALT.
The potatoes will soak up a lot of SALT as they cook.
DO NOT add any more salt once the potatoes are added! 
The potatoes will break up when cooked through, and thicken the stew. 
DO NOT add any cornstarch flour or wheat flour to thicken the stew as it will taste horrible. 
DO NOT add any Graham crackers to thicken the gravy as crackers are high in margarine/fat, and will add to weight problems.
Switch off the fire and cover. Let the stew cook in its own heat.
Serve hot with light baby buns. The buns can be warmed up in the toaster oven.
Keep any extra stew in the refrigerator. Heat up in the microwave in small portions. There is no need to heat up the entire bowl if only 1 or 2 persons want to eat.



Fried Bihun


Lightly fried bihun
RM2.70

Fried bihun is a balanced meal and can replace a rice meal, especially for lunch. Eating additional cucumber or greens will suffice. A small packet of tasty sambal makes the food delicious. Otherwise, fried bihun is a dull food and does not sell well.



50 g of rice

Southeast Asians and Malaysians eat rice daily. Some hardly eat bread. The Indians eat rice and flat breads. The Chinese eat noodles and rice.

Rice falls into the carbohydrates category and has a high glycaemic index. This means eating rice can quickly convert rice to give blood glucose. Rice is therefore fattening if eaten in large amounts, and not much exercise is done daily. It is better to take small amounts of rice at any meal time.

Each person needs only about 50 g of rice at meal times. There is no need to weigh accurately. You can eyeball what 50 g is by taking a handful of cooked rice - this is approximately 50 g.

Eating more then 50 g of rice will lead to weight gain. In the long run (eg 10-15 years), weight gain can only worsen, and lead to being overweight and then obesity. Obesity can lead on to gross obesity (super fat).

If one is already obese or overweight, reverting to eating 50 g of rice at meal times is a good start for weight loss.

Drinking apple cider vinegar drink at meal times, will further reduce abdominal fat (belly fat). Fat will not disappear rapidly, but will disappear bit by bit and can be unnoticeable. Taking weight measurements daily and continuously will help you to monitor your weight loss.

Eating 50 g of rice at meal times will also help the liver to correct itself and further aid in burning excess fat in the body.

Thus, the easiest way to weight loss in obese and overweight persons is to reduce carbohydrate intake (eg 50 g rice at meal times in Asians) and taking apple cider vinegar drink as much as possible daily.


Approximately 50 g of rice on a normal dinner plate 

Approximately 50 g of rice held in the palm 

Approximately 50 g of rice with many different cooked vegetables filling the plate. Adding a piece of chicken or meat will suffice.

Kerepek Belinjau


Fried snack
RM3.80/100 g

This is a bitter crisp made from the flesh of a berry from a big wild tree. The unripe green berries turn red when ripe. The berries are collected and steamed and then pounded into thin slices and dried under the sun. They are deep fried in hot oil and served dry, without any traces of oil. They taste bitter and children do not enjoy eating them. Adults and the elderly enjoy these bitter crisps as they are thought to posses medicinal properties - against what? Probably diabetes. Indonesia produces a lot of this Kerepek Blinjo. It is not keropok, but kerepek.

Eggplant Parmigiani

This is a different version than the one I was taught how to make by a Canadian - David Wright, a computer science student at Stanford University, in the early 1980s. In David's recipe, the ground beef and tomato sauce are cooked together before layering on the fried eggplant slices. The recipe was from his grandmother.

This recipe below is an Internet recipe, and the steps provided are clear.
Yield: 4-6 servings of eggplant Parmesan

Ingredients

4 lbs eggplant (2 kg terung bulat besar atau panjang, potong senipis 1/4"; tak perlu buang kulit)
Olive oil for frying
2 and 1/2 lbs ripe tomatoes, blanched, peeled and chopped*
A small piece of onion, minced
Abundant basil (beli dari Tesco)
3/4 lbs fresh mozzarella (or buffalo milk if possible)
2 eggs
1/2 cup grated Parmigiano
Pepper

*Note:
Since the wateriness of fresh tomatoes varies the above is a minimum. You can also use 3.6 lbs of canned tomatoes or 1 1/2 quarts bottled tomato sauce.

Drain the tomatoes well, and cook them with the minced onion and a sprig of basil.

When they have softened, drain them and put them through a food mill, then cook them a little more over low heat, without letting the sauce thicken too much.

Salt the sauce when it is done and don't add oil, as the eggplant will have absorbed enough in frying.


How to

Peel the eggplants and cut them into quarter-inch slices; salt them and place them between plates to press out the bitter juices. Can also leave the skin on, no need to peel.

After 1 to 2 hours rinse them and pat them dry.

In the mean time, heat a pot of oil to the smoking point, then fry the eggplant slices, a few at a time, removing them from the oil while they are still lightly coloured.

Set the slices upright in a rack to drain, then put them on a sheet of absorbent paper to remove all the oil you can.

Mince the basil and cut the mozzarella into thin slices, then cut the slices into strips.

Take a 10-inch diameter oven-proof dish that's about 3 inches high and spread a couple of tablespoons of tomato sauce over it.

Next, beat the eggs with 2/3 cup of tomato sauce.

Arrange a third of the eggplant in the bottom of the dish, overlapping the slices slightly, and cover them with 2 tablespoons grated cheese, 5-6 pieces basil leaves, 2-3 tablespoons of the egg sauce, and half the mozzarella.

Repeat this process with another layer.

Lay down a third layer, covering it with the remaining grated cheese, egg-tomato sauce, and if need be a little more tomato sauce to cover.

Bake in a slow oven for about an hour, turning the heat up in the last few minutes to lightly brown the top.

The dish should not be eaten hot - let it cool a bit, or better yet, entirely.

It will be better the next day or even the day after that.


Pancakes

This is an Internet recipe.
Makes about 10 to 15 pieces of 4" to 5" buttermilk pancakes.

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons sugar
2 large eggs
2 cups buttermilk*
3 Tablespoons melted butter

*How to make buttermilk substitute

This is soured milk substitute.

For each cup, add about 1 Tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice to a 1 cup measure,
then add milk to the one-cup mark.

Let stand for about 5 to 10 minutes before you use it in the pancake recipe.


How to

In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, soda, salt and sugar.

Whisk eggs, buttermilk/substitute, and butter together in a small bowl.

Combine the 2 mixtures and stir until smooth, but don't over beat.

Heat a griddle over medium-low heat or lower, depending on your range.
If you are using a gas range which is fairly hot, move it a notch above the lowest setting or use a cast iron diffuser.

Using a 1/4 to 1/3 cup measure of the pancake batter, cook until you see bubbles over the top and the edges are somewhat dry looking.

Flip pancake over and brown the other side.

Keep pancakes warm in a 175 degree oven if you are serving all at once.

Serve with butter and syrup, or with butter and madu kelulut.

1/4 cup apple cider vinegar (cuka epal, cuka kurma/khal tamar)

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (serbuk bawang putih atau titik 1 ulas bawang putih segar)
4 lbs boneless chuck roast (2 kg daging tanpa tulang dari bahagian peha untuk dipanggang)


How to

Add salt, pepper and garlic powder and stir to mix.

Place chuck roast in a slow cooker (sejenis alat memasak). Pour ketchup mixture over chuck roast. Cover and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours.

Remove roast from slow cooker and shred with a fork (like pulled beef). Return to slow cooker, stir and continue cooking for about 1 hour longer.

Serve with potato and coleslaw or serve in sandwich buns (sliders) with fries and slaw or serve in long sandwich rolls (submarine sandwich). Lightly but quickly dip submarine sandwich in beef broth before adding BBQ beef - serve hot with small jerkins.

Nasi Ayam

Taken from Facebook, 19 March 2016 and edited for web browsing.
Adaptasi resepi masterchef yang pernah berkhidmat di Istana Buckingham England.
Ilham resepi dari Tuan Haji Mustaffa Othman, Menate Steak House .
Resepi yang saya jumpa pada tahun 2010 ketika beliau aktif menulis blog.
A. Bahan untuk merebus ayam

Ayam

bawang putih

halia

air

Cara merebus ayam

Rebus ayam hingga separuh masak dan simpan air rebusan ayam.

Jangan rebus lama sangat, nanti ayam jadi kering dan keras setelah digoreng.

---
Bahagi air rebusan ayam untuk 3 kegunaan:

1. Untuk nasi ayam

2. Untuk sambal

3. Untuk sup kosong


B. Bahan untuk perapan ayam

1. 2 ulas bawang putih (ditumbuk)

2. 3 sudu madu

3. 2 sudu sos tiram

4. 1 sudu kicap pekat

5. 1 sudu minyak bijan (optional)

6. Sedikit lada sulah

7. sedikit garam ikut rasa*
*saya tak letak garam. Kalau nak masin sedikit, letak garam sedikit sahaja sebab sos tiram sudah masin
Cara membuat perapan ayam

Di dalam satu mangkuk, campurkan semua bahan di atas.

--
Perap ayam yang telah direbus tadi.

Dah perap 15 minit dah boleh goreng dah.

Terpulang sama ada nak menggoreng, gril dalam oven atau panggang atas arang. Resepi ini boleh digunakan.

Selalunya saya panggang dalam oven. Tetapi kali ini saya guna kaedah goreng.

---
C. Bahan untuk menggoreng ayam

Minyak masak

Kuali

senduk

Ayam yang telah direbus separuh

Cara menggoreng ayam


Panaskan minyak untuk menggoreng ayam.

Apabila minyak betul betul panas, masukkan ayam.

Nampak buih dalam minyak bermaksud api betul betul panas.

Saya suka memasak guna api sederhana kecil, tetapi memakan masa untuk menggoreng.

Kalau api besar, pemanasan mengejut nanti sebelah luar dah garing sangat, tetapi isi dalam belum berapa masak

--
Masukkan 3 ketul ayam dalam periuk atau kuali

Jangan masuk banyak sangat.

Kita nak matikan air sahaja. Tidak terlalu garing.

Masak selama 5 minit ke 7 minit sahaja.
*Memasak ini perlu latihan selalu turun ke dapur. Nanti lama lama kita semakin mahir.
---
Hasil ayam yang digoreng adalah hitam.

Ia sedikit hangus tetapi sedap dan lembut, manis, pahit dan masin.

---
D. Bahan untuk sambal nasi ayam


1. 6 biji lada merah

2. 2 ulas bawang putih

3. 1 sudu jus limau nipis

4. Sedikit halia (anggaran 1 ruas jari kelingking)

5. 4 sudu gula

6. 1 sudu kecil garam

7. Air rebusan ayam 3/4 cawan (200ml)

8. 1 sudu kecil tepung jagung (optional)*


Cara membuat sambal nasi ayam
*Larutkan tepung jagung dengan 2 sudu air.
----
Tips : Bawang putih, lada dan halia tadi mesti potong kasar sebelum masuk blender.

Kalau masuk sebiji sebiji bawang putih nanti tak hancur

Blender semua bahan di atas. Masukkan air rebusan ayam tadi.

--
Masukkan dalam periuk, masak guna api kecil.

Ingat, jangan masak guna api besar.

Kita nak semua bahan mesra mesra gitu.

Barulah sedap masakan kita.

---
Dah mendidih, masukkan gula, garam dan perah limau nipis.

Kalau limau tak ada boleh guna apa lagi?

kejap pan dan masukkan kurang 1 senduk adunan ke dalam pan..lenggangkan
pan tadi sehingga rata dan nipis kulit tadi serta memenuhi permukaan pan
tadi..kemudian letak balik atas dapur ..(saya tak guna senduk pun tuk ratakan
