Last weekend I actually whipped up Hyderabadi Mutton Briyani Dum! Was I complaining of backache from standing too long? That didn't seem to stop me as I prepare Vegetable Sambhar, Fried Black Pepper Popedum and Cucumber Raitha. Too much food for 2 and a toddler, so I made habibi call his kakis and we all enjoyed the Indian cuisine that evening. 8pm was a little bit late for dinner, but it was last minute and it was rezeki and baraqah from Allah. Alhamdulillah, it was more than enough for all the 5 of us.
Then I found my favourite Kuay Teow Noodle (dried) at the Asian Shop!!! Alamak, bahagia tak terkata. I browsed the Internet quickly for the recipe to Beef Hor Fun, and made Habibi make a trip to the grocery store to get Corn Flour on his way home for lunch. He was in a hurry and needed to go back to work urgently, but after tasting the delicious, freshly made Cai Xin-carrots-mushrooms-tauge-loaded Chinese-style Beef Noodle, he just couldn't stop! I'm really excited because that means I could make this recipe regularly, since its so simple! But I playcheat lah, I didn't even give him the Kuay Teow! I made his with Fettucine instead! Muahahaha. Alah, not that he appreciates Kuay Teow like I do, buang current je. In the evening, I gave him the same thing whilst I made my K.L style Kuay Teow Goreng that I used to have at Batu Caves, where my mom used to live. OOOooh Heaven on earth lah. One of those instances where I'm sure, mak mertua lalu pong tak sedar nuuuhhhh!
Yesterday, I gave Habibi a break from my Asian-fascination since he was also fasting. I promised him I will make him Arabic/Mediterranean dishes on his fasting days. So I made
Turkish Bulgur Pilaf (kinda like rice), Shish Taouk (Grilled garlic chicken), Kofta kebab
(Minced meat Kofta) and my very own invention of Aubergines baked in Tomate Sauce, which I call, Shortcut Moussaka.
Luckily I was watching closely when my turkish friend, Tugca was here and prepared the Bulgur Pilaf and Kebab. Must record the recipe online someday, before the scribblings I made in my notebook with my felt pen dissappears! We still have plenty of leftovers from yesterday's dinner for Habibi and Binti, but I was already craving for Assam Pedas Ikan Sembilang with Bendi and needed to do something with the Kangkung I bought 2 days ago.
Also got some leftover firm tofu from the Lontong I made last Saturday (did I mention that?), so perhaps can make tahu telor later kalau rajin. Crazy or not?
Too bad my camera is cranky these days, so I cannot take all of the pictures of the food that I've been stuffing my face in recently. But, not to worry, I'm sure I will be whipping them soon again! Muahaha...

They have two types of packets. The big one comes with the basmati rice while the small packet just the rempah beriyani. Tapi bolehlah to my standard. Why don't you add all the recipes in your multiply site. I mean ALL...ehem. Siapa tahu senang2 takde idea nak masak, masuk yr site...hehe
