Minda yang tidak bertamadun

Being a frequent traveler, I've seen various drivers' attitudes. it's true that i'm not a very 'disciplined' driver myself, but i tried my best to respect other road users.

today, coming back to USM (i travel back home once per fortnight) there's this Perodua Rusa in front of me. from junction aft tasik kenyir, there's this long single line road, which laluan memotong every 5km kot. because there's a lorry in front, so merangkak laa sikit. i'm not a very patient driver, so start je laluan memotong, terus gave signal n msk ke kanan. si perodua van kt depan nih, org dh stat potong, sesuka hati dia je masuk kanan gak.. nasib baik x laju sgt, kalau x memang cium la bumper die. i gave him lampu tinggi sekali, tp dia wat derk n masuk kanan jugak. so terpaksa laa saya beralah n slow kn kereta. they were in front of me till nk masuk bandar permaisuri. tp maybe sbb i gave them lampu tinggi b4 this, so dieorang bengang kot. owh, there're 2 guys in the van. it's a company van, tp xde pulak tulis nama company apa, cuma tulis alamat n no tepon je. the one at the passenger seat in front kurang ajar gler. dia baling bekas air (plastic cup) ke belakang. pastu gelak2.. then lempar plastik air pulak.. sakit nyer hati.... sbb sakit jati sgt, i dialed nombor tepon yg tulis kt belakang van dieorg. konon2 nk complain kt manager dieorg laa, tp one number (09-6175145) busy sokmo, the other (09-6175146) xde org angkat..

sbb geram sgt, salin no plate WMY2560 nk ngadu kt JPJ. siap amik gmbr lagi.. huhu.. (sy kalau marah mmg menakutkan)..



ps: berjaya tepon the 2nd number just now.. prpn yg jwb tepon tu ckp that van has not arrived, but sy mengadu dgn hebatnyer.. hoho..

Roti Jala ^^

at last! i managed to use my not-so-newly bought acuan roti jala.. but biasa laa.. budak baru belajar, kan.. mcm2 rupa atas kuali.. haha.. kalau kurang sabar, rasa2nyer nk wat lempeng je.. huhu..here's my 'jalaan' yg ade laa jugak rupa jala tu..


guna resepi dlm mama nyer buku koleksi resepi 'chekgu2 tepces' =)

4 c of water (i substitute with 1 milk + 3 c water)
3 c flour
1 egg
a pinch of salt
yellow colouring

- blend everything ^^ - the whole recipe wont fit your blender. letak separuh2, then combine in a bowl.
- greese ur pan, then 'jala' atas kuali. xperlu balik kan.. when the colour changed, then it's cooked.

n.. this is for breakfast =D (too hassle nk wat gulung2, so i just lipat je terus time dlm kuali.. haha)



ps: my cheesecake brownies was way too sweet! need to alter to recipe n try again. huhu..

Crispy Fried Chicken ^^

Home sweet home ^^
weekend ni usrah cancel, so subuh2 hari lagi dh bertolak balik kemaman.. hihi.. (kalau x aft usrah baru balik..)

n as usual, balik kampung equals to lepas geram di dapur. haha.. saya budak gemok..

last time, i read about using batter or coatings to prevent moisture loss + retaining the flavour while frying. n bread crumbs are widely used to increase the crunchiness of fried food. so, balik ni, bersedia dgn sepeket fresh bread crumbs ^^

for lunch we had crispy fried chicken, dalca kari ayam, and nasi ala2 nasi minyak but i added some curry inside.. haha.. just to match the flavour of the dalca ;p

here is my ayam goreng yg best, straight from kuali. i used breast fillet (remove all the skins, n thinly sliced)


what i used:

chicken breast
tepung serbaguna (tepung ayam kentucky, or tepung ayam goreng)
1 egg - beat
bread crumbs

the way i cooked it:

- gaul2 ayam dlm tepung
- celup dlm telur
- gaul dgn bread crumbs
- deep fried, medium heat, until brown ^^

and here's the whole dish ^^



sbb saya gemok, so semua org pun kene gemok jugak.. hahaha.. jom makan!!

tonight's challenge: cheesecake brownies.. ^^ i'll post the recipe kalau sedap =)

Roti jala x sempat nk buat lagi. nnti nx time balik la buat. marathon wat curtart tart and choc tart.. ^^ i still have to polished my pastry-making skills. selalu lembik laa, keras laa.. then after blind-bake, dia shrink! geram btol.. xpe, berusaha lagi! but sbb rupa dia xberapa nk cantik, xbw balik ke segamat. hihi.. made orea cheesecake lagi for my hubby... weee~~~ ( i know.. i should control his diet.. huhu)

Savings for future

next week start biochemical analysis!! dup dab dup dabb.. (that's my heart nyer berdebar ;p )
sesungguhnyer sy sgt cuak. guna kit one-shot yg teramat mahal.. risk tetap ada, but i'm hoping that everything goes smoothly.. insyaAllah..

nway, today i'm thinking about savings for the future. nowadays duit mengalir mcm air.. :( last 2weeks, kuarkan 400.. then last week, kuarkan lagi 400. today, dlm purse tinggal lagi 100. adoii... mcm mana nk cukup duit scholarship kalau mcm nih. tp xleh nk salahkan sape2 gak, sbb i travelled too much.. 3minggu berturut2 balik kg, then drive sampai segamat. hohoho..

back to the topic on savings, usually i opened few savings account.. sekarang belanja guna cimb, simpan dlm tabung haji and bank islam.. BSN ade dr zaman kecik2 dulu, pastu xgerak2. last time tgk ada 600. haha.. masa buka account bank islam, tanya dia "ni interest dia riba' x?" dia jawab 'tak'.. wallahua'lam. nama pun dh bank islam, yakin je laa bukan riba'. now i'm thinking whether i should open ASB nyer account. still reading about it.. dh berpinar2 mata @@ (sbb xfaham). hehe.. nnti balik tanya orang2 yg lbh berpengalaman..

ps: simpan duit nk beli umah ^^

Cheesy cheese

My hubby lovess cheese cake ^^
last time makan cheese cake yg sedap (but too memuakkan for me) at secret recipe.. oreo cheese cake ^^.. so balik umah wiken aritu marathon wat cheese cake.. ^o^

i use basic cheese cake recipe with tiny modification (that never failed me before), but used oreo as the base =)

~~ My Oreo Cheese Cake ~~

Base:

2 packets of Oreo (biskut marie will also do actually) - remove the centre, hancurkan
50g butter - melted

mix both, tekan2 on your loyang (i use baking paper to alas), and masukkn dlm fridge for about half n hour..

filling:

250g cream cheese
200ml whipped cream
2 eggs
1 tbs lemon juice (awe guna half limau nipis)
2tbs flour (ratakan, bukan bumbu)
90g sugar (about 6 tbs)

blend everything!

decorate:

choc chips/drops sesedap rasa.. just sprinkle on top.

>> pour the filling onto the base, sprinkle choc chips on top.. bake for 45min, 180degree.

>> you need to refrigerate the cake for 4 hours before eating ^^
