The Surirumah Separuh Masa Part II

This is how I enjoyed my weekend bersama suami terchenta... before scouting for houses again (updates: we saw a few and decided we want a property with good investment value so we can sell if off and get profit)

And I dedicate tis recipe to Wewen coz these are the food we love to order whenever we have the chance in between shopping maddness... miss our main try2 baju session :(

The Recipe

1. Udang Goreng Kunyit
2. Kerabu Mangga
3. Kangkung Belacan (well... sort of)


Udang Goreng Kunyit (Cooking time: 10 mins)

Bahan-bahan:

  • Udang (we got the freshest udang, courtesy from hasben hobby) - belah belakang to remove the poop
  • Rempah kunyit
  • Curry powder
  • Garlic
  • Corn flour
  • Salt

Method:

  1. Marinate the udang with all the ingredient (put tepung last), wait 10 mins then goreng

Senang kan?


Kerabu Mangga (oh-so-senang)

Bahan-bahan

  • Mangga muda
  • Cili padi
  • Bawang merah (big)
  • Limau
  • Bunga kantan (refer to the pic if u don't know how it looks like)
  • Sotong kering/ udang kering (whichever u prefer)
  • Garam and gula


Method:

  1. Cincang mangga ala kung fu fighther
  2. Goreng the sotong/ udang kering and put aside
  3. Hiris bawang, cili, bunga kantan
  4. Campur semua (save a lil bit of the Sotong/ udang), perah limau, put garam and gula. Use the extra sotong/ udang for garnishing.

Tadaa.....



Kangkung Belacan Chinese-style (Cooking time: 4 mins)


Bahan-Bahan

  • Kangkung la of course

  • Bawang merah and bawang putih
  • Cili merah
  • Belacan (optional, I go without kerana hasbenku ada Sinus)
  • Kicap cair
  • Minyak Bijan
  • Garam

Method:

  1. Tumbuk bawang together with cili and belacan (if any), tumis sampai garing then masuk kangkung, kicap garam and few drops of minyak bijan. Siap!

(if u like the kangkung to be glossy like those in restaurant, they put a bit gula in the oil before u tumis the bawangs)


All recipe are from Mummy dearest, she's my best 'recipe book'. Mom taught us how to cook since sekolah rendah and paksa us belajar menjahit... "at least mesti pandai jahit hemline and jahit butang". These are good strategy to increase the hantaran money hahahaha....

Seriously, where would I be without my mama?

Whenever I'm in trouble or feeling down, she would call... all the time! Dats the miracle we called mother's instinct... no matter how big is the South China Sea.

Hearing her voice heals the pain...

If I could only be the half of she is...

Mama, Jiejie love u!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

Jie. . . senang lah you kat sana. All ingredients are within reach. Cuba you hidup di negara yang makanan "pedas" dorang is soooo NOT pedas at all. Kepunan a good sambal you know. And its times like these lah you learn to experiment and improvise on food. Sigh.

I can so imagine you "cooking" and sambil2 tu sempat take pictures some more. Aiyooo... Some people got way too much time on their hands, I tell you.
