Roti Canai

Galzz..you won't believe it but I made roti canai!

:) My Fijian Indian friend taught me.

Ingredients
1) Approx 2 cupful of flour
2) Approx 4-5 tbs of olive oil
3) Approx 3-4 tbs of salt
4) I added a pinch of baking soda because I don't know how to make it puff up
5) Pour Approx 2.5 cupful of hot boiling water onto mixture (1)-(4) and roll.

Instructions, as per picture. It's the dough making texture and rolling part I find tricky.Note: Before rolling, dip the dough into flour so that it doesn't stick to the board.Enjoy!

Sushi

Well...guess I have to scout for hands-on experience. :)
Sushi is really easy!Something not familiar...once tried out,it's AIYAH,LIKE TAT
ONLY AH!hahahah :)

Take seaweed sheets,put about 3-4 tablespoon of cooked rice,spread it out,
put crabstick,cucumber,spread mayonnaise/thousand island/wasabi...and
wrap it around using the bamboo thingy.Cut the edges and then start chewing!
If the seaweed sheets don't stick,just tap with water and put in the fridge.
But don't leave it overnight in the fridge,coz when I eat it this morning,
the rice hardened....

The rice, I use olive oil to mix together,I heard using vinegar tastes even better.
And, sprinkle sesame seed is good too!

But,in short,easy-to-make and easy-to-bring to work for LUNCH!

Oh~ Just so yummy!


Can you believe it... I am eating again. Yes and my width is expanding while my height remain constant. That's a very bad sign. Yes yes yes.. it is a very bad sign. Almost everyone I know says it behind my back... "oh she has put on lots of weight"

That is just so crazeee... but I won't blame them. I love to eat so.. well I gotta bear the consequences. AND yes.. I hate people who eat a lot yet they don't gain weight. Sigh... they give me tensions.

Okay.. I divert too much away from my intentions of this entry. I went to dinner with my mum and sis nearby ampang. Ermmm.. this shop call "Suzi's Corner" nearby Flamingo. Hemm.. they have loads of stuff to eat here. But well, I must say, I find that their satay daging is very nice. It's got that tender yet juicy feel to it. Hemmm.... yummy~


The otak-otak... okay.. I'm rather picky when it comes to food.. but I do eat all of them (that's the pathetic and weird part). I'm not sure if this is the first time I eat it hot.. but it does taste good. Yes.. I actually never liked otak-otak.. coz it gives me this weird aftertaste. Hemmm.. I gotta eat some other hot otak-otak from other place.. to be sure the otak-otak here is good.

The steak... I don't think I need to say much about it. The picture already tells it all. Yummm... for the price (RM26), it does taste good. Yes.. The portion is quite big, yeah... big eater like me can't finish. *Burpz* *rub my tummy*

Chocolate Crazeeeeeeee

I think I finally know how to do this. Ermmm.. well I decided to tempt everyone with chocolates as my first post. Yup. I love chocolates.

Yum..yumm.... Yeah.. okay this is my first attempt to write down what each one taste like.



Crème Brûlée
Yes... To my tastebuds, this one does beats every other chocolate from it's crowd. It has this thin chocolate on the outer layer. It melted when I tried to pick it up. So yes, make sure you do ice your hand if you doesn't wanna eat melted chocolates. Okay.. looking at it right now... it somehow looks like "eggtart" It tasted like one too.. the middle stuff was rather soft and creamy. It has this quite strong milk taste to it while have bits of... I have no idea what it is.. felt rather nutty.

Brownie
When I first open the box, and look at it, this is the chocolate that somehow look the ugliest. Well.. yeah... I mean look at the others, It seems like it has been crafted. This one.. hahaha just give me the "simply whack" feeling. But well... like mama always say, "Don't judge a book by it's cover." I guess that apply to chocolates too. It tasted good. Have the brownie texture with some bits and pieces of nuts. Okay... It somehow tasted as if there were some alcohol content inside. Yes, and I think that's what that really adds in the kick to this piece of chocolate.


Tiramisù
Mmmm..... tiramisu.. yeap... my first thinking, it's gotta be somehow soft and have this hint of alcohol taste. Yeap.. gotta be light and fluffy. But somehow I was disappointed. The hint of coffee wasn't enough to light up everything. Not to mention it not being soft and fluffy enough. The taste somehow just taste like any other ordinary coffee chocolate. Well.. but I must really give credit to the details. All of them just looks identical.


Tarte aux Noix
By first glance, this I think is by far the most interesting one in the box. I dun just say it coz I say it, well I have prove. Once I take out the box and offer only.. This chocolate was immediately a goner. I guess people and nuts... inseperable. It has this think outer layer as the Crème Brûlée. However the it's a little different. It has some hazelnut cream and being topped with chopped hazelnuts. It does look pleasant to the eyes, however it taste just so ordinary. Just so same as other Hazelnut chocolates.
