Tiramisu

Well... I am actually on leave today, and that explains the multiple entries.... hehehhe

As always, whenever I am on leave, I crave for something unusual... and today, I am feeling Italian .... I am feeling Tiramisu (literally it means 'pick-me-up').

So off I went to my lil' office (read = kitchen) and start mixing ....


So, here goes...

250gm mascarpone cheese (be warned, mascarpone cheese will cost you about RM20 per tub!)
300 ml cream
2 eggs
75gm sugar
2 sachet instant coffee / cappucino / espresso (any coffee drinks will do) - mix with 2 cups of hot water
shaved chocolate or cocoa powder for topping
1 packet of savoiardi biscuits

To make the cream:
Beat eggs and sugar till thick (and the color becomes lighter).
Beat in mascarpone cheese till combined.
Fold in cream till all come together.

Slightly dip the biscuits in coffee mixture - biscuits absorb water REALLY fast, so make sure the 'dipping' is really short
Arrange one layer of biscuits, then pour the cream mixture on top (another layer).  Continue and make another layer of biscuits and cream till you fill up the pan.
(I used disposable plastic tupperware because I want to bring them to office tomorrow)
Finish the layer with cream and top it with shaved chocolate or sifted cocoa powder.

Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving.

Enjoy!

Hilang

hadirnya tak pernah diduga tidak juga diundang terus mancarik dan merobek koyak tak pernah sekali pun  dirawat dibiar bernanah sampai bila? sinar terik  yang bisa mencairkan  malam yang hitam pekat  yang bisa menyesatkan harus tidak mampu  menyuluh jalan pulang mungkinkah  ini telah dijanjikan seperti nukilan yang tiada penghujung seperti irama yang tiada noktah haruskah pasrah?

A Walk to Remember!?

Finally, I’m writing…. The trip to Singapore was fun…. And also, full of crazy moments.. heheh… Clockwise : The Q @ immigration, street performers @ Orchard, moi infront of Far East Plaza, Nik chilling out @ Starbucks Suntec CT & my precious new sandal... I like!! We left KL after Subuh & managed to reach Johor around 10am. The trip was a short one so we decided to leave the kids behind. It was a smooth ride on a cool & very breezy morning with just enough sun all the way (yes, made me sleepy also!). I took some cool pictures along the way and later discovered that I accidently deleted all of the scenery pics from my camera.... *sigh* Sometimes I can be more than the word 'clumsy' could describe... Anyway, we wanted to enter Singapore via TUAS, then I remembered that we didn’t even have a single cent of S$, so we drove down to JB town and looked for money changer. Then I thought…. no harm of taking the Causeway since it was a Sunday and I was so damn sure that traf...

To Be or Not To Be

Deadlines were over…. Yesterday was my last day here…. And today marks a whole new beginning of my career life here….. I could be wrong or I could be right for making this decision… but I’ve made up my mind to take up the challenges, nonetheless. I know I’m subjecting myself to a lot of hardwork as well as criticism, scrutiny and observation from the rest……. and time definitely has to be compromised. But being a risk taker…. I am, I know I just have to pull myself together and face the obstacles - one at a time. It’s too late to undo things anyway and the best thing to do is to be positive. Both legs are in and it’s time to march towards the horizon with pride and dignity. Only time can answer the doubts that I have in me now… meanwhile, I need all the luck that I can have.
