Dinner at Restoran KST

My cousin Jeffrey and his wife came to visit Kota Bharu and we went to have dinner. My son Muhammad knew Restoran KST and suggested we eat there. The restaurant is open after 4.30 pm till late night. We ordered and selected the various fish, squids and ray fish. We waited 1 hour for the seafood to be cooked and for food to arrive. In the meantime, we tucked in on drinks and ulam. Finally, the seafood was ready and we had dinner. We stopped to perform Maghrib prayer in the tiny staff surau. Then we continued to talk and finally parted and went home.

Basbusah / Basboussa

Basbusah is an Egyptian recipe. I first tasted it at an international students' festival at California State University, Chico campus in 1976-1980. It was delicious. The one that I tasted was not so sweet, but just nice. It had half an almond on top of each diamond piece. I have never found its recipe, but found it today.

Basboussa is the Moroccan version of the same dessert.

1/2 lemon

2 cups of semolina flour or cream of wheat

3. Add butter and sour cream mixture to the dry ingredients.
4. Stir by hand with a wooden spoon. 
5. Spread mixture in buttered 9" x 13" shallow baking tray.
6. Bake for 40 minutes at 400 degrees. 

C. Adding almonds

1. After baking for 20 minutes, score the top of the cake, to give it a checker-board design. 
2. Place a whole almond in the centre of each diamond piece
3. Use organic roasted almonds. 
4. Finish baking the cake for the remaining 20 minutes. 

D. Adding syrup

1. Pour cool syrup on cake while the cake is still warm. 
2. Serve cake in its tray while still warm.

BASBUSAH RECIPE #2

A. Syrup

2 glasses of sugar

4 glasses of water

Preparation of syrup:

In a saucepan, bring to the boil water and sugar.

Cook 20 minutes over medium heat.

Cool the syrup before sprinkling over the hot basusah.

Sprinkle the hot basbusah with the cold syrup.


B. Cake

Ingredients in order:

1 can of sweetened condensed milk (how many ml?)

120 ml of rapeseed oil

2 eggs

1 glass of 200 ml of almond powder

1 glass of 200 ml of fine semolina

1 pinch of salt

1 sachet of baking powder (11 g)

Preparation:

Preheat the oven and grease a baking tray with butter and lightly sprinkle semolina.

In a bowl and using a mixer, pour in the milk, oil, eggs, salt and mix with the mixer to have a very homogeneous mixture.

Add the two powders (almonds and semolina) and beat at low speed to obtain a homogeneous mixture.

Pour the mixture into the baking tray and bake at 200 ° C for 20 to 25 minutes. The basbusah must be well-browned at the bottom and at the top. It is important. Otherwise it is uncooked.

At the end of the baking, sprinkle cold syrup on the hot basbusah and leave to rest at least 2 hours before serving.

Jika penapaian berterusan, proses ini akan menghasilkan alkohol (arak).

Kehadiran alkohol di dalam makanan membuat makanan berkenaan haram dimakan oleh orang Islam sebab alkohol memudaratkan hepar (liver).

Alkohol juga menjadi racun kepada bayi di dalam kandungan. Bagi mengelakkan kesan alkohol kepada bayi dalam kandungan. ibu mengandung patut mengelak makanan penapaian seperti tapai (semua jenis tapai)
