Blueberry Cheesecake

2011-11-29T19:19:00.000-08:00

Yesterday I was super hardworking (actually I really didn't know what to do with abang being so busy. He's in the hospital fom 7am to 5pm everyday. That is if he is not on-call, otherwise he'll be back by 11pm huu. Isya' is at 6, and we usually retire to bed straightaway after isya'. See I talk to him for few hours per day only! Oh I am so neglected haha) Few days back I came up with the idea of selling cake (Again?? I sold cakes when I was a student). Abang readily agreed rather than having me rambling all day long about going back to malaysia to start working huu.

So yesterday I made THREE cakes! that is quite a number, considering that I went out shopping in the morning with Ameer Faheem (ah a reformation indeed! I go out with Ameer Faheem almost every morning now. Going out to pay bills has become an enjoyable thing for us two in the midst of OUR boredom haha. how pathetic). And at around 3pm, I went out again to send the cakes to a shop. I had like few hours in between to bake??!

Here's the recipe:

5 biji telur putih

1 cawan gula

pukul jadi meringue

250ml whipping cream

250g cream cheese

whip them up! and then add:

1 cawan tepung gandum (add soda bicarbonate and baking powder)

1 sudu tepung jagung

5 biji telur kuning

sesudu jus lemon

Gaul rata.

Next, add the meringue to the cake batter. Gaul rata.

Masukkan adunan kedalam loyang yang dialas dengan aluminium foil, bakar dalam oven, teknik water bath, 160 degree celcius for 1 hour 30 minutes.

Lepas dah siap, refrigerate for 12 hours and then decorate with blueberry topping!

Kuih talam keledek

2011-11-23T20:06:00.000-08:00

baru sejuk dan sedia untuk dikeluarkan

inilah kuih talam keledek versi maryam, lapis tebal gitu hehe

Tengok stok keledek banyak lagi, terus decide untuk buat kuih talam, sebab abang suka jenis2 kuih talam, kuih lapis, seri muka dan seangkatan dengannya.

Ni resipi:

Bahan A (blend)

1 cawan keledek rebus

1 cawan air

2 sudu madu

Bahan B

4 cawan susu/ santan (i mix both)

2 cawan tepung gandum

4 sudu tpung beras

4 sudu tepung jagung

1 cawan gula

Bahan C

1/2 cawan air

pewarna (maryam guna kunyit sikit sebab takde pewarna huu)

Cara2:

1.Blend bahan A

2. Gaul rata bahan B. tapiskan dan bahagi kedalam 2 bahagian.

3. 1 bahagian dicampurkan dengan bahan A dan pewarna

4. Lagi satu bahagian dicampurkan dengan 1/2 cawan air.

5.Kukuskan secara berlapis (terpulang nak lapis nipis atau tebal. maryam malas so buat tebal2 hehe)

Fried macaroni

2011-11-23T00:11:00.000-08:00

Pagi ni buatkan sarapan simple je untuk abang, sebab isterinya ni tengah marathon ganti puasa huhuuu. Macaroni goreng..

Cara2:

1. Rebus macaroni (ikut arahan kat packet). Maryam guna Mastodoro, so 10mins, tambahkan garam and minyak sikit dalam air rebusan.

2. Tumis bawang, paste tomato and kiub ayam (kalau guna ayam betul lagi best, tapi sebab buat awal2 pagi, dahlah winter, susah betul nak g dapur awal2 and defrost ayam T_T)

3. Masukkan air sikit dalam bahan tumisan. Then masukkan macaroni yang telah direbus. Gaul2 rata.

4. Masukkan pula cheese yang telah diparut. (I used processed cheese yang jual dalam bentuk bongkah. Siap sebab terlalu malas, time tengah masak tu, parut terus masuk kuali haha)

5. Kemudian maryam taburkan pizza spices/ italian herbs (guna lah apa2 herb yang berkenan di hati)

6. Finally garam and gula secukup rasa (ni susah sket utk org yg puasa hehe. So waktu abang nak makan tu dah warning yg maybe rasa masin manis tu tak berapa ok, tapi abang kata sedap je hehe!)

Personally I think macaroni ni boleh goreng macam2 manapun. Sometimes I add vegetables eg carrot, mushroom etc tapi buat mengikut bahan2 yang ada kat rumah la kan. Tapi sebab sekarang takde sayur mayur dirumah, hentam jelah :D

Buat banyak sikit, because as usual I like to stock up my fridge, senang abang panaskan sendiri dalam microwave je if dia lapar pada waktu2 yang pelik. Tak perlulah selalu kejut isteri di tengah2 malam sambil membuat muka sedih dan berkata, "Ayang, abang lapar..." hehehe.

Puding roti

2011-11-22T01:06:00.000-08:00

(sedang dibakar. lepas dibakar dia turun semula, moist dan bau sedap!)

Resipi:

5 keping roti sandwich, dicarik2 kecil

50g butter

1/4 cawan gula

2 biji telur

200ml susu

Esen vanila

Teknik:

Bakar roti dalam kuali sampai garing. Jangan hangus k.

Dalam periuk lain, cairkan butter atas api. Setelah cair, tuang ke dalam kuali yg ada roti bakar.

Setelah bau wangi, masukkan roti garing kedalam loyang

Kemudian, gunakan periuk butter tadi (tidak perlu dibasuh), utk membuat karamel dari gula.

Dalam bekas lain, pukul 2 biji telur, campurkan dengan susu, dan akhirnya campurkan dengan karamel. Tuangkan adunan ini kedalam loyang berisi roti, gaulkan rata.

Bakar pada suhu 180 darjah celcius, 25-30minit.

Boleh dimakan panas atau sejuk :)

Donut buruk

2011-11-22T00:49:00.000-08:00

Sejak winter ni, MALAS betul nak masak.. selalu ajak abang makan luar je semenjak sampai dari Malaysia sebulan lepas haha. Kalau masak pun, masak lebih sikit supaya dapat makan utk 2 hari. Maka, 2 harilah kami makan lauk yang sama hahaha (kejamnye). Yang paling teruk, haritu buat bancuhan cucur ikan bilis banyak2, simpan dalam tupperware, TIGA HARI berturut-turut kami sarapan cucur ngee~ Nasib baik abang jenis tak memilih and tak complain.

Nak dijadikan cerita, haritu adun tepung utk buat donut. Tapi sebab terlalu MALAS, simpan adunan dalam fridge and keesokan hari baru nak naikkan and goreng haisyy. Keesokan harinya MALAS lagi tapi sayang plak nak buang tepung, maka buat jugakla donut tu... Cincai habis. Waktu tengah tengok movie ngan abang kot, tetiba aku lari gi dapur jap. Abang panggil2, tanya tengah buat apa. I said "Kejap, kejap". Terus abang datang dapur tanya buat apa, i said buat donut jap tapi dah nak siap. 3 minit je kot haha. Tak guna acuan pun. Jadilah donutnya gini (seperti dalam gambar diatas)...

Letak depan heater utk naikkan tepung jap and terus goreng. hangit plak tu haha. Memang rupa buruk yang teramat, tapi janji sedap, gebu and Ameer Faheem makan banyak Alhamdulillah :)

Ni resipi donut diambil dari sini. Copy paste je ye, tq kak ijah :D)

the dough sebelum naik

Dah siap :)

Hari ni buat sandwich loaf, sebabnya sangat3 suke makan sandwich for breakfast or after-dinner snack (sebab abang ni selalu je lapar during odd-hours), the problem is in Jordan we don't have the luxury of going to the supermarket and choose between gardenia, high-5 and such. yang ade memang sejenis je roti sandwich, dahlah keras, too crumbly and dry, lepas tu takde expiry date plak. I think I have for 4 times bought the loaf which ended in the rubbish bin sebelum sempat makan! sebabnya berkulat huuu..

So here's the recipe:

3 cups all purpose flour (tepung gandum)

4 tbsp margarine

1 tsp salt

1 cup of milk

2 tbsp yeast

3 tbsp sugar

Method:

First, mix well the flour, salt and margarine

In a different container, put the yeast and sugar together in about 5 spoonful of warm water for 5 minutes

Then mix the dry and wet ingredients, add the milk a little at a time while ypou knead the dough.

If the dough is too hard, add alittle more plain water.

Put the dough in a baking pan (shape it according to your desire. I made it into a roll) and cover it with a tea cloth

Let the dough rise in a warm setting, and when the size has doubled, bake at 180 degree celcius for about 30 minutes.

Done with the baking, take the loaf out of the baking pan, let cool on a wire rack, covered with a tea cloth

Then the bread can be sliced and ready to be eaten :D

Cinnamon Roll

2011-07-25T11:27:00.000-07:00

Yesterday when I went out in the evening, I smelled cinnamon being baked (by one of our neighbours) I was fasting some more, and said to abang, "Abang, sedapnya bau cinnamon ni, sapela yang masak ni..."

Motivated by that, today I was determined to make cinnamon roll haha. So here's the recipe:

5 cups flour (all purpose)

10g dried yeast

1/2 cup sugar

A pinch of salt

2 large eggs

50g butter

1/2 cup cooking oil

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup milk (5 tablespoon of milk powder + 1 cup warm water. I didn't use all the milk actually, just nice to produce a soft dough)

Mix all the ingredients and knead until the dough becomes stretchy! That simple haha. Let the dough rise until almost double. Then knead again.

Then roll and stretch the dough until it become about 1/2 inch thick, rectangular in shape. Then brush melted butter on the upper surface, and sprinkle ground cinnamon.

Roll the dough (like rolling a swiss roll). Then, cut the roll into approximately 1.5 inch wide. Arrange on a baking tray and let it rise in a warm place. Bake at 180 degree celcius, abut 20 minutes

My own version of Lentil soup

2011-07-24T01:10:00.000-07:00

Lentil soup reminds me of steatorrhea haihhh.

Since there are some lentils available, I decided to make lentil soup for dinner yesterday. I used red lentils. Green lentil is used for making dhal. However the lentil soup is not much difference from dhal.

Here's the recipe:

Boil in a pot:

-A cup of lentils

-2 large potatoes, peeled and cut into cubes

-Chicken (I used quarter chicken)

-Adequate water for boiling

In a different pan, fry:

-Garlics

-Red onions

-Ginger

-Cinnamon stick

-anise (bunga lawang)

-cardamom (buah pelaga)

-A spoonful of chicken curry powder

-A teaspoon of turmeric (kunyit)

Then pour the fried ingredients into the pot. Let them cook until the potatoes and lentil beans have softened, the chicken is well cooked.

Blueberry muffin

2009-01-25T05:22:00.000-08:00

Yesterday I baked some blueberry muffins, but they had embarked on their journey down some people's gut, before i even had the chance to take their pics huu. I'll share the recipe nevertheless:

70g butter
60g sugar
1 egg
2-3 drops of vanilla essence
4 tablespoon milk
100g flour
1 tbsp baking powder
blueberry jam

So how to bake?

1. Beat the butter & sugar until creamy
2. Mix all the dry ingredients, stir well
3. Pour no 2 into no 1
4. Finally, put the batter into muffin cups, 2/3 of the cup. Don't forget the blueberry filling!

Bread bowl

2009-01-12T15:05:00.000-08:00

To make the dough (2 servings)

INGREDIENTS
40 ml water (70 to 80 degrees F)
80 ml warm milk (70 to 80 degrees F)
9 g butter, softened
8 g sugar
3 g salt
165 g all-purpose flour
5 g active dry yeast
5 g bread softener

Add the yeast and sugar into warm milk, left it for a while until it becomes bubbly and frothy (mcm urine of nephrotic syndrome patient?? huu. nope, like the saliva of a person having seizure instead!)

Then put the rest of dry ingredients into a bowl, mix well.

Add the mixture of milk, yeast and sugar into the dry ingredients. Finally ad in water and kenad till the dough becomes doughy and stretchy!

As usual, leave it for a while until it doubles in size. Knead it again, divide it into 2 part, and turn each part into a ball (the sahape of your preferred bowl), let it rise again. Bake in the oven 175 degree celcius, 20 mins

This is the over-baked bread HAHAHA because I didn't put the timer on since I
wanted to continue baking the pizza after that, but in the end i forgot to take it out,
in the buziness of putting up my wallpaper border...

Now it is ready, I cut the top (the lid off!! :p), and I'm going to take out the bulk of the bread ( korek dalam dia k)

Boycott Pizza Hut??

First, to prepare the dough, you need:

2 cups of plain flour
2 tbsp dried yeast
1 tsp bread improver
1 tbsp sugar
1/4 tsp salt
4 tbsp olive oil
3/4 cup ice-cold water

How? Mix all the dry ingredients well. Then add in the olive oil into the mixer, finally ad in water to make a dough. Knead it!! Hehe as for this part, i leave it to the bread mixer for 1/2 jam to make a very soft pizza bread. How to make sure enough kneading has been done? Check whether the dough is stretchy or not. If yes, then it is done.

Leave the dough in a warm place until it has double in size (usually 30mins). After that knead the dough a little bit again, use a rolling pin to flatten it into a rounded or oval shape (or any shape that you want for your pizza!), make sure it is very flattened (around 0.5-1cm thick) beacuse you are going to let it rise to double again!!

Meanwhile, prepare the pizza sauce and fillings. As for the sauce, you can just use tomato puree + black pepper. Should be enough :)

As for the fillings, put anything that you want!! For this pizza (12th January 2009), i put in crabsticks, sausage, green capsicum, pineapple cubes, tomato slices and onion slices. It tasted like hawaiian pizza of Pizza Hut by the way- most probably due to the pineapple cubes + crabsticks

Don't forget lots and lots of cheese!!! I just use cheddar instead of parmesan, it is sure cheaper!! hehe

Now the dough is ready, sprinkle some herbs on it. I usually use oregano + rosemary. They are widely available in the stores- McCormick, sold in small glass bottles

Finally put the pizza sauce on the dough, then throw in all the fillings, and top them with shredded cheese. Bake in the oven 175 degree celcius for 20 mins. Yummmy a very tasty pizza :)

Since boycott is a much preferred way for the Muslim to fight the Israel.. Pizza Hut is one of the outlet which should be boycotted. Hmm a big change for me as I was an avid fan of it!! Huu~

So I have no choice other than to bake my own pizza whenever I feel like eating it. For those who want to have the recipe, here goes...
