Ayam Percik Kelate (my version)

I got this recipe from my sis in law in KB and of course, her version tastes much better.... hehehhe. Anyway, here goes....

Marinating the chicken:

3-4 garlic
1 inch ginger
A pinch of salt (to taste)
* blend everything and marinate chicken overnight

Making the sauce:

Ingredients (A)
4-5 shallots
1-2 garlic
1-2 inch ginger
2 inch lemongrass
1-2 tbsp bawang goreng (thinly slice shallots and fry till golden brown)
* blend all

Heat (please put on very low heat) coconut milk (from 2 coconut) and stir, while adding A into the mixture.

Continue to stir until mixture boils. Add 1 whole lemon grass, salt to taste and black pepper (optional).

Add brown sugar or 'gula melaka' and 1 asam keping.

Cook until the sauce thickened.

Preparing the chicken:

Arrange the marinated chicken on a baking tray (lined with aluminium foil) and scoop some of the percik sauce and pour on the chicken.

Bake/grill on high temperature till the chicken is cooked.

Serve while hot. The above preparation is for half chicken.

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). ...

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!!!...

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?
