Blogging Bug

this is what happened when i have free time. my fingers so itchy i can't stop updating my blog. the result; 2 entries in one day. meaning; there were many many things happened recently that i didn't have time to sit down and capture it in my blog. but the brilliant invention of digital camera makes it possible for me to capture these and save it for when i have time to deal with it.

Caramel Pudding

i made this just now, after dinner. ignore the funny shape, my 'loyang' dah uzur.

Spinach Frittata

made this a week ago.

when bibik left i stop cooking, so i cleared all fresh supplies from the fridge. i stock up 20 eggs instead; i don't understand myself why i bought 20pcs of eggs as if we eat egg that much, which we don't actually.

but well, i have to get rid of those eggs before it rotten. by accident, i was blog hopping actually, i bumped into these recipes made from eggs. very simple recipes, but very yummy.

for the spinach frittata i add new ingredients, ikut selera sendiri; my own version of spinach frittata. it is so good you can eat it on its own.

and the caramel pudding is the easiest recipe i've ever tried. and the result is fantastic!

before i type the recipe here, allow me to say that the credit should go to the person who created caramel pudding & frittata. since i dunno who created both, the credit should go to the person/her blog where i found these recipes, but since i don't have the permission to link her blog here, so i'll just say thank you to zaza of cooks & crafts.

caramel pudding

3 sudu besar gula (hanguskan dalam loyang hingga yellowish & ratakan, let it cool+keras)

1 tin susu pekat manis (opposed to the fresh milk i normally use)

7 biji telur

1 cawan air

beat eggs well, stir condensed milk hingga sebati, finally mix well with water. tuang dalam loyang & kukus for 45min or until an inserted stick comes out clean. best eaten chill.

spinach frittata

satu pokok green spinach

3 biji bawang putih, smashed

5 biji telur

1 biji tomato, diced (i prefer sliced, kurang berair)

lots of ground pepper

salt to taste

i add dried mix herbs McCormick (oregano,basil,rosemary etc)

1 slice cheese, shredded

whisk together eggs, ground pepper, salt & mix herbs. in a frying pan stir fry garlic together with spinach until softened and pour egg mixture into frying pan. quickly add sliced tomato and shredded cheese. do not stir, put on medium heat and cook until the top almost set. adjust your heat, don't burn the bottom. when the top almost set, transfer into a preheated oven, under grill funtion to finish cooking the top or til the top become golden; the cheese won't melt though.

best eaten fresh & hot!

there's something wrong with the spacing, it just drives me crazy adjusting the spacing. grrr!

Year End Goodies

this supposed to be my year end entry but somehow it was delayed.

these are my year end goodies, complimentary from my boss's wife. a remarkable lady who treats people fairly and equally regardless of your age, rank or title. rasa segan juga because eventhough i've left my previous post (no longer involve/assisting her in personal matters), but she never fail to bring back goodies from her overseas trip for me. sometimes rasa nak menyorok bawah meja. hehe orang lain yang pegi shopping, i'm the one yang benefit from that shopping trip. ;-)

dior lips pallete, laura ashley's summer collection & a pair of pyjamas. pyjamas! pun orang belikan. patutlah hubby jealous! ;-)

not that i didn't buy anything with my own hard earned money during last year's year-end sale. bought new akemi bedding set (70% off!)in soft purple which is going to replace the brown bedding set next month. there's more that i wanted to buy, but have to set my priorities. ehm never mind tunggu sales CNY pulak. hehe...
