Sambal Goreng Singapura

It's a week full of open houses... so more food.... and FAT!  hellpppp!!

Anyway, this morning I decided to cook Nik's fav dish.... sambal goreng.  It was a brunch because by the time I finished cooking, it was already 11am....

This is my mom's special dish.  I hardly find it here but in Singapore, this dish is quite well known.  And my mom's sambal goreng is the best....  She even courier it to the States during Syawal when I was studying there... LOL!  Actually, I made it a few times already, but today, I went blank... didn't even know where to start.... so I gave my mom a call... and here goes...

Sambal Goreng Singapore

Bahan A
1/2 kg of hati and paru
Rebus and potong dadu (about 1/2inch size) - rebus hati for about 10-15 mins but paru however, you will need to boil for about 1.5 - 2 hrs, or you'll be chewing it forever...
Then fry (just enough to dry them - about 5 mins of frying)
Set aside

Bahan B
Slice thinly 2 red chillies, 3 shallots and 5 dried chillis
Set aside


Then, blend about 7-8 shallots, 4 garlic,  10 dried chilli (cili kering) and 5-6 lemon grass
Heat up your pan and use about 5 tbsp oil (I used olive oil) to fry Bahan A.
Fry the blended mixture for about 5-10 mins,  Add a bit more oil if needed to make sure the mixture cooks well
Add brown sugar and salt, to taste (I added about 3 tbsp sugar because the dried chilli I bought from Tesco is soooo pedasss!
Add half pack of coconut milk (about 5 tbsp)
Add half cup of water
Thrown in Bahan A (fried) and Bahan B.
Cover your pot and let the mixture boil over low heat (about 15 mins)

Voillaaa!!!



This was served with my kurma ayam and nasi minyak..... errgghhhh... marvellous!

It was Nik's Birthday

It was my husband’s birthday yesterday and we took the day off to ‘merewang’ while feeling young, kononnya. The theme of the celebration? Reminiscing the days when we were courting back in 1993 minus the snow.... ancient sungguh rasanya! We had our breakfast at O’Brien’s early in the morning and took a slow stroll along the shops in OU and enjoyed every minute of it (at 10am in the morning, mind you, and the shops were barely opened). Later we watched ‘Lake House’ and we were charged RM12 only for 2 tickets (the early bird tickets were so damn cheap, I almost fainted!). There were only a few couples inside and we took the opportunity to sit right at the middle (ikut suka hati), since the theater was quite empty. How was the movie? Hmm… ok la, I would say it was the right movie for the occasion… hehe. A bit slow though, biasa la, romantic piece. The ending part was quite ‘touchy’ and yes, Mr Reeves was so stunningly handsome (oh yes, nampak tua sikit la and still got the looks). ...

I am busy, I'm confused!

I have been very quiet this week.. no updates, no hopping around leaving any trail of my existence, probably due to the following reasons: 1. Nasreen will be having her exam next week, so I’m busy reviewing her syllabus (and also nagging to make sure she prepares herself). Yes, instead of her reviewing her books, the responsibility – by default – is shifted to me…. Hmm, mothers nowadays. We feel the pressure more than our kids (and we panic even more while waiting for the results to come out). Hehehe. I can’t remember my mother even touched my textbooks when I was in Primary 3. No wonder we grow old faster these days…. 2. I’m having mood swings this week. One day, I feel elated, then mellow on the next day, moody on the following day. Work is adding on my desk, scope is being expanded, news is floating around and remarks are beings smacked everywhere (manage to steer clear of some and the rest sometimes just landed right on my very lap). Don’t you hate it when you are so positive that ...

Angels - Mission Possible...!?

Last week was a week full of excitement for me. One, because I was busy with my work, so the week went by faster than usual…. (meaning: less time spent on ‘termenung’ & missing my husband); Two, my hubby dearest was scheduled to arrive on Friday night (3rd March 2006), the more reason for me be thrilled and eager counting the days; Three, me and the rest of March Angels ( Leilanie & T. Ina ) planned to meet up on Friday (3rd March 2006, also) to celebrate our birthdays and Leilanie had this fantastic idea of challenging ourselves to find gifts for the birthday mommies (and the gifts must cost less than 10 bucks each!) – and Leilanie, I must tell you that this challenge really made me sweat all afternoon on Thursday….. hehehe …and Four, me & my husband (and also the children) planned for a weekend getaway to Cyberview Lodge Resort & Spa on 4th & 5th March 2006. There I said it…..nothing much to say about point One & Two…. but point Three and Four…..definitely!!!...
