Masak bareng -Nasi Tim Ayam Jamur // Steamed rice with chicken and mushroom topping-

I suppose, i will write this in Indonesian language since this Event for Indonesian :) host by Deetha, Shinta, Lidia and Ayin.

Karena baru pertama bikin nasi tim ayam,dan keburu-buru bikinnya, jadi ngak baca resep dengan seksama alhasil, semua kaldu di campur sama tumisan ayam deh, hihi... kelihatannya jadi kayak nasi goreng gitu ya?? lain kali deh bikin lagi sesuai resep.

Trus beras yang aku pake iti long grain rice, kayaknya menyerap air lebih banyak dari biasa, padahal aku udah guyur pake kaldu sampe berasnya tenggelam semua loh... ya sut lah itung2 pelajaran buat kedepannya kalo bikin nasi tim lagi. Tapi masaknya lumayan lama ya 1 jam, Ellyn ngak sabaran nunggu, haha.. kalo di rice cookerkan paling 15 menit, mateng deh nasinya..

1 hal lagi yang bikin aku ngak sabar buat posting gambar ini. karena baru pertama coba teknik settingan untuk outdoor picture dengan makanan, hasilnya lumayan juga aku puas, abis bosen di dalam terus, apalagi sebentar lagi summer jadi pasti banyak aktivitas yang asyik di luar.

Aku ambil resepnya (di modif) dari buku Variasi nasi tim - sajian lezat lengkap gizi- by Lilly T Erwin, resep aslinnya menggunakan daging giling (Nasi tim daging), tapi ku fikir kayaknya cocok juga di ganti ayam sama jamur, jadinya ngak susah2 cari resep deh. ini dia resepnya:

Fondant Dolly & flowers

I started to get addicted making fondant figurine, and I'm waiting for the next term to attend decorating class, on one of the cake shop in Melbourne, Yippee... i already falling in love with fondant now, LOL.

I think it wasn't bad for my first attempt, am i right?. next time would be better for sure, especially if i have more time (not in a rush), those 2 dollies wasn't smooth yet, the fairy dolly looking a bit strange on her face, hihi.. i named them Jessy and Lily the fairy.

I will started to think about what i wanna make for Ellyn's 2nd birthday from now, i was thinking of the castle cake. By the way happy Monday!!

Orange,Bread and butter pudding

I submit picture for Click event, hosted by Bee and Jai, this month theme is citrus, i remembered that i made some pudding with orange and i love the picture. i posted the recipe here on June.

I usually put copyright on my picture, but i suppose i don't need to do that for this event ( well, no one does), not expecting much to win but it will be nice too if that's happen ^_^.
Cheers.

Tumis kailan cah cumi // Chinese brocolly with squid stir-fry

In my country they called this vegetable "kailan", do not know why they name it Chinese broccoli here, seems like many things came from China and name it after their country, anyway i love this new recipe, and the vibrant colour too... Basically i love all kind of veggies, only since I'm a teenager :) .

Try with chicken or shrimp next time, will be a s delicious as this one. Only problem i found with the squid is that i never clean or handle that thing before! so i just use my feeling how to clean and cut them, i also confused what is the different between calamari and squid, any idea?.

Banana & Sultana - stuffed Toast

Sometimes i feel soooo... lazy to work in front of my computer, to update my blog. I actually took many pictures of my food, but they're still sitting nicely on my camera, waiting for me to transfer to the computer, so i had plenty of recipe to upload, as long as the recipe in English, i can do it quick, but if they still in Indonesian language, i need to force my self, argghhh...

This is healthy yet yummy breakfast for me and my daughter, i hate the original toast for brekkie, so i had some breakfast recipe collection, for when i feel bored with my oatmeal or cereals. Recipe from Recipes+ magazine

Banana & Sultana - stuffed Toast

• 2 eggs
• 1 cup milk
• 2 large ripe bananas, mashed
• 1/3 cup sultanas, finely chopped
• 8 slices white or multi grain sandwich bread
• 60 gr butter

Method:

• Whisk eggs with milk in a large shallow bowl. Combine banana and sultanas in a separate bowl. Let stand for 5 minutes. Divide banana mixture equally among 4 bread slices and spread evenly. Top with remaining bread slices.
• For each sandwich, melt 1/4 of the butter in a large non- stick frying pan over moderate heat until foaming. Place sandwich in egg mixture; stand for 30 seconds. Turn over and soak for 30 seconds more. Drain off excess liquid and place in pan. Cook for 1- 2 minutes each side or until golden. Cut sandwiches in quarters to serve.
