::Welcome to the Red Land::
|
|
Last week, rombongan org Kedah 'selamat' ber'bekwoh'/make gulai kat Red Land (Tanah Merah)  Am so excited going there, coz I really miss their nasi dagang, nasi kerabu, budu, keropok lekor & etc. How come Penangite likes their budu so much??? He!he! My families r the frequent traveller to this city coz my aunt was there. And me myself spending bout 2yrs ++ during my studies.
My last visit was in 2001..wahhh..certain2 area dah banyak berubah..but some places still remain d same. Kat KB pon dah ada restaurant exclusive!Bagus2!Boleh ambo gi Kelate sokmo! 
Gi Kelantan..@ uncle Aziz house..agendanya..makan ajerrrrrrrrrrr! Sampai jer Tanah Merah..auntie Siti (uncle Aziz's wife) dah prepare roti jala, ayam masak kuzi ( masakan nie famous kat sini) & belede (agar2 lerrr). Then, malam pula..ada nasi dgn lauk pauk yg sedap serta makaroni bakar. Tomorrow morning, before we go to Sabri's house..breakfast nasi dagang dulu! Fuhhhhhhhhhh..nasi dagangnya..sedap sangatttttttttttttt! He!he! Thank you to Na (uncle Aziz's daughter) who said " Akak nie baru lepas Matrik ker"? Aduhaiiiiiiii nampak mcm budak baru masuk universiti ker I nie??? Credit
to me  Nampak 'mudo' rupenyaaaa diriku ini! Kah!kah! "kegemukan perutku' terselindung di sebalik baju2 yg besar!
Sebelum ke rumah Sabri, the whole families taking the opportunity to take some pictures togather. Syahida looks very beautiful & sweet with her yellow wed. dress. Make-up, dress & tuan empunya diri mmg look magnificent! Seri pengantin!
A day before, mmg winter jerrrrrr kat Red Land nie..tapi Alhamdulillah..on d day kenduri...winter pun redaaaaa....tapi biasa laaaa..winter reda..some places still 'wet'. Kalau di Alor Setar pengantin di sambut dgn tiupan serunai..di sini kami di sambut dgn paluan gong & dikir barat! Tetamu yg lain dijemput makan kat meja luar..tapi kami rombongan pengantin dpt special treatment makan kat atas rumah. Sedap laaaaaaa...gulai daging org Kelantan! Rase mcm nak 'tambah' jer masa makan..tapi mcm maluuuuuu la plak..sbb 1st round tuh..cik Mimie dah isi full plate
After kenduri, we heading to KB ...apa lagiiiiiiiii..for shopping time laaaaaaaa Now, tgh musim ubi badak & ubi itik..to those from pantai Timur..mesti tahu keenakan ubi2 nie... 
Last but not least, we wanna wish Syahida & Sabri..all d best..SELAMAT MENEMPUH ALAM BARU and to uncle Aziz & families..thz for d lovely foods!
p/s For Asma & Kak Ifah..sorry tak sempat nak drop by to ur place..InsyaAllah..panjang umur kami ke KB ..kita jumpa lagi!

Dari negeri cik siti wan kembang si dia ke mari
Menyunting si jelita di negeri jelapang padi
Tanggal 19 Nov janji terpetri
Semoga sejahtera sehidup semati
Warna bukan sebarang warna
Warna ceria si oren muda
Ceria bukan sebarang ceria
Ceria mereka kami doakan bahagia
Memang cantik..first time I tengok pasangan pengantin pakai color oren. Agaknya both of them peminat pasukan bola sepak Holland kot? Honeymoon @ Holland???? Memang ceria....rombongan dari negeri cik siti wan kembang semua berbaju oren..Kalau si Norjuma Habib Mohamad..oppsss Datin Norjuma..order fresh roses..d white roses from China utk design pelamin..Syahida pula order fresh pink & peach roses from Cameron Highlands...Best sangat tgk pelamin..simple but looks very elegant! kih!kih! Rasa mcm nak bersanding sekali plak!
Cik Mimie, Mami bagi tugasan bagi ole2 utnk para tetamu..so bergandingan ngan kak Watie, kami di khemah luar distribute ole2..seronok sgt! Sajian tengahari ada nasi minyak & putih..lauk pauk toksah citer laaa..mmg sedap! Then around 3pm, disajikan pulak laksa, bubur & pulut...semua mak labu sorang nie rasa..mana leh skip..semua food best belaka!
By 3:30pm, cik Mimie dah keletihan.. duty distribute ole2 hand over kat org lain (sebenarnya 'letih makan') so tak sempat la cik Mimie tgk upacara memotong cake..cake tiga tingkat!
Alhamdulillah..selesai sudah majlis kenduri di Alor Setar & this week rombongan org Kedah pulak akan ke Kelantan...Tak sabar rasanya nak ke Kelantan!

This entry is highly dedicated to Syahida Congratulation sis! She looks so adorable & lovable wearing the light green baju kurung with songket tenun that nite. I saw everybody was busily preparing for tomorrow wedding. I think Mami & Baba were the most busiest person that nite. Kejap2 nampak Mami berlari ke hall..kejap2 berlari ke kitchen... Just imagine how tiring buat 'kerja kenduri kahwin' nie???!!! But everyone mmg tak sabar for tomorrow agenda..nak tengok si teruna dari negeri Cik Ct Wan Kembang..disatukan dgn si jelita dari negeri jelapang padiiiiii
p/s I get to know that my grandma, age 70yrs +++ was going to d same school with me..St Georges Girls School.. our school is more than 130yrs already..wahh..malam tuh..bukan terngiang2 lagu 'selamat pengantin baru' tp ternyanyi lagu sekolahku & tokku di dalam hati..."Senior & juniors all gather here..together we march on without d fear..goodwill & happiness we want to be...st georges..st georges we always proclaim honour & uphold u forever praise ur name...oh dear st georges girls school....bla..bla..bla..Slogan sekolahku & tokku " IF THERE's A WILL, THERE's ALWAYS A WAY" DI MANA ADA KEMAHUAN DI SITU ADA JALAN" AUT VIAM INVENIAM AUT FACIAM"..

One or twice a yr, my boss MESTI organize majlis makan2 fo her staffs. At first we decide to go for Amandari Restaurant (kari kepala ikan dia sedap ooooo) , eemmm...finally si mamu Shahideen proposed to try EQ's dinner buffet. He!he! lagi pon boss rasa2nya baru saja close deal ngan Expeditors..so sure dpt sales commission ribu2..just name her the place mesti dia xdak masalah
Next year boss cadang nak invite our nearest branch-mate, Alor Setar branch to join us for 'majlis makan2' mcm nie..."Ya Allah murahkan la rezeki boss kami..moga2..kami pon murah rezeki..dapat makan mcm nie slalu"
p/s utk Olie di Kuantan branch..amacam kalo invite nak mai tak Penang?
We meet there around 7:10pm..while waiting semua org sampai..hubby & me, go for maghrib prayer first. MasyaAllah..sehebat-hebat 5 stars hotel tuh..prayer room..nun ditempatkan at the lowest habitable story of a building- the car basement Ish2...nasib baik condition bilik tuh elok..kusyuk la nak solat!
Their F & B??? Dulu2 kalo nak makan the best cheese cake in town mai cari kat sini laaa..tapi last nite makan..eeemm it doesn't taste as delicious & yummy as before! Agaknya chef yg buat cheese cake tuh dah pencen or kerja kat tempat lain. Last nite INTERNATIONAL menu...so the coffee hse prepared a few dishes from other country..first time I makan TACO. But the most superb menu is their grilled lamb! Lamb's rib...waduhhhhhhhhh..sedap! Letak pulak pudina sos..'terangkat habis'. Overall food OK....semua org 'kekenyangan' last nite. I dok bisik kat my hubby bila nak makan lagi kat The View, another coffee hse kat EQ..hah! From The view boleh nampak Penang bridge..tapi tuh laa..dua tahun sekali boleh la kot makan kat The View EQ sbb mahai sgt! Salamon grilled..6cm panjang 5 cm lebaq -RM45.00 (price 2 yrs back) Just imagine itu baru jer satu menu..takkan nak makan satu menu jer (buat lekat celah gigi jer)..tapi fikir2 balik..baik beli Salamon fillet kat hypermarket ..balik masak sendiri..save cost then boleh makan banyak2..tu dia aaaaaihhh..la nie semua nak makan banyak2..tak main dah makan ikut PROPORTIONATE..ayo! yo! kariwale! Nafsu makan jenis apakah ini????

::My 1st Time Meet d Babies Eye2Eye::
|
|
On d second hari raya hol. we went back to AS. My 1st time celebrating d Eid Fitri with my new family...emmm..ramai sungguh org dtg beraya ke rumah Ayah Brahim & Mak Siti...mcm dtg majlis kenduri per group yg datang kurang lebih MESTI 10 org! Rumah Mak Rose pun ramai juga org dtg tapi xdelah yg dtg segerombolan sampai 20-30 org mcm kat Lorong Bayu nie...wah meriah tul!
And the best part, Olie'd invited us for her family's BBQ at Tmn Uda, 5 mins. jer dr Lorong Bayu. So, that nite was my 1st time meet d two little boys Akif & Hadif in person! Hadif not feeling very well..dlm dukungan Babanyer aje..so xde chance auntie Mimie nak snap pic with him. Tapi Abg Akif sporting habis malam tuh..sempat auntie Mimie posing ngan Mamanya Kalo Hadif sihat that nite nak jer auntie 'gomol2' dia..geram tul tgk mata Hadif yg 'bundar' itu! Nearly two yrs, I didn't meet Olie..so that nite tuh kalo xde ramai org rasa mcm nak "gheyau" sajaaaaa... & nak gebang sampai pagi..tp apakan daya..zaman 'gebang' masa kami muda remaja jer dulu. Olie maintain 'ayu' gitu!
The next day, I meet Anis..a cute girl who's born on 05.05.05. Anas my colleague from AS branch pay us a visit at Lorong Bayu. That was also my 1st time meet Anis, d girl with a special birth date, in person!
He!he! Semua 1st time...and this is my first time EATING like monster during hari rayaaaaaaaaaaa..uwaaaaaa..todays check-up, I put on weight!!!!! Uwaaaaa....unbelievable 49kg???? Uwaaaaaaaaaaaaa...ishhh..sbb OVER-EAT or mmg ideal weight for my current sindrom??? He!he! Aci ka quote as 'sindrom'? Takut2 jadi BELON jer???

Last weekend, kami balik rumah Mak Rose..nak buka puasa beramai2 dgn Mak, Abah & d two little brothers. Sempena bulan Ramadhan nie..tak henti2 juga customer tetap Mak Rose dtg tempah kuih. Actually, Mak Rose buat kuih nie just for 'hobby' but now become her small 'bisnes'. Bak kata Mawi WORLD..rezeki Allah ta'ala. Last time Mak Rose tolong ambil tempahan kalau org nak buat meeting, majlis kecik2 (b'day party ka, kenduri kesyukuran) but sekarang sejak Abah 'pencen'....ish..ramai pulak customer. Mainly utk karipap..customer tempah yg frozen. Mak Rose kata dari boring2 dok rumah baik terima tempahan..dapat juga income since dah ada laggard customer..stay at home amik order jer Betul juga kan???? Ishhh..saper la anak2 Mak Rose yg nak mewarisi kepakaran Mak Rose dlm ilmu masak-memasak nie??????
Nak buat karipap? Cuba nie..
Karipap ni boleh dibakar dalam oven or fried. ikut suka hati...kalau
baked lagi sedap pasal tak de minyak.
Bahan-bahan:-
pastry :
100gm plain flour
50gm wholemeal flour (kalau tak de, guna aje plain flour) -Mak Rose guna plain flour jer
40gm butter - marjerin biasa cap PLANTA tuh pon ok
40gm shortening (kalau tak de, guna butter) - yg nie optional
1 beaten egg mixed with 1 tablespoon water - yg nie pon optional
1/4 tsp salt -bancuh ngan hot water
Ais batu (air sejuk)
Inti Sardine:
100 gm sardin (sardine yg di proposed Cap Ayam Jantan)
4 sudu kuah sos tomato di dalam sardin
7 tangkai cili padi - dihiris
1 ulas bawang putih - dicincang
1 ulas bawang merah - dicincang
1 labu bawang besar - dihiris
2 sudu besar cili kisar
3 sudu besar minyak
Sedikit serbuk lada hitam dan garam
Inti ubi + ayam:
5 biji ubi kentang
1 peket rempah kari daging
5 ulas bawang merah
2 ulas bawang putih
1 tangkai daun kari& daun sup
2 ketul isi ayam (dada)- ptg dadu
Sedikit kayu manis, cintan manis, cintan putih
Sedikit gula/garam/serbuk perasa
Sedikit minyak
cara-cara :
1. Mix salt into flour mixture.
2. Mix butter + shortening into flour mixture + air ais, make it into bread
crumbs. maknanya jgn uli, guna hujung jari gaul kan butter & tepung
sampai dia jadi berderai2 macam serbuk roti.
3. Add the beaten egg little by little until flour becomes a firm
dough. Lebihan telur disimpan untuk disapu atas karipap masa nak bakar
nanti. jgn diuli dough tu, coz too much handling will make the dough
keras and tak sedap.
4. Wrap the dough in cling wrap and leave it in the fridge for 30 mins.
5. Make dough in balls the size of limau purut or ikut suka hati how
big/small u want ur puffs to be. tips : roll the balls in between a
piece of cling wrap so that dia tak melekat-lekat kat roller and ur
work table.
6. Put the filling ( ikut suka hati la, nak letak sardine ke, chicken
or beef) in the middle and fold it over. pas tu buat la klim kat tepi
dia macam karipap tu or if u prefer, flatten the edges and press with
a fork so ada macam pattern sikit...ala yg macam kat bakery. last
sekali sapu lebihan telur tadi kat atas the puffs. kalau nak goreng,
tak payah le buat ni.
7. Masukkan kat dlm oven and bake at 150 C for 20 mins atau goreng jer
Selamat mencuba!

Alhamdulillah...almost a week kita semua selamat menjalani ibadah puasa di bulan Ramdhan al Mubarak dgn sempurna. And last Saturday, a few frens of mine decide to 'berbuka posa' at M3 Block D Mutiara Perdana. Actually we would like to organize a small gathering for Linda..yg datang jauh nun from Mantin, Negeri Sembilan, and sempena bulan Ramadhan, majlis kami jadi TWO IN ONE 'small gathering & berbuka puasa'. As the host, we prepared Mee Kari Penang, Rendang Ayam, Daging Masak Rebung dan menu2 yg lain guest datang bawa. Wah..memang banyak betul juadah berbuka kami malam tuh. Ada Ikan Bakar, Tom Yam campur, Ayam Panggang, Agar2, Salad, Murtabak, Ikan Masak Ros & etc. Cekodok pisang pon ada..ini special request dari Husna yg teringin nak makan cekodok pisang Linda buat! Husna tgh 6 mths pregnant..first baby. Punya la banyak food yg dihidangkan..hinggakan ada yg berpinau mata utk mengklasifikasikan yg mana dessert..& yg mana main course Sampaikan ada yg ingat puding telur tuh..tauhu goreng! So ada la yg makan puding telur dgn nasi malam tuh
Sebagai tuan rumah this is d first time buat makan2 mcm gini...lawak tul..'saprah' pun tak dak..lapik pakai newspaper! Dining table muat utk 6 orang sajer..so reramai laaaaaaa...bersimpuh & bersila makan.
Thanks to all of them...they're all LOVELY & HAPPENING!
