Salam Bersiaran & Happy New Year 2012

(This is a sticker entry until 31st Dec 2011 midnight)

Assalamualaikum & hello to all. It has been more than two weeks since my last entry. It is always the best time to take a break at year end after working so hard throughout the year - taking a break from work, from home and everything else including blogging - to relax mind and rejuvenate for 2012. There were so many fun things happenings in between and am glad taking the break altho the body is physically exhausted with so many activities. There are many postponed entries too but will share later.

Looking back at 2011 with syukur for another healthy, prosperous and successful year for myself and family - at least another year of lively HomeKreation that I almost ended up one time but I decided to come back after requests from several. Many thanks for your support for HomeKreation.

I would like to wish everyone

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2012

 Semuga kita di panjangkan umur & kesihatan untuk berusaha lebih maju jaya dalam kehidupan di tahun baru ini dan mendapat keredhaan Allah dengan hidayah & pertunjuk.

Menu for Family Gathering cum 22nd Anniversary

Dessert  table

Last 24th Dec was our 22nd wedding anniversary, syukur alhamdulillah..... we both are healthy and blessed with happiness and strong love for each other, children and our extended families. This year we celebrated our anniversary by gathering all our relatives in Taiping - almost 50 of us gathered in the house in Taiping. There were few of my nephews/nieces/grandniece who could not attend and of course not forgotten my own eldest son who is studying in Pennsylvania State University. The gathering was really fun with a lot of laughters and feeling of togetherness... very warm with love! It is the best anniversary celebration we ever had...!

ok, let's check the menu that I prepared for the day. The selection was based on popular requests.
PHOTO above:
1. Kek Lapis Peppermint (most popular layered cake for the occassion)
2. Kek Lapis Intan Terpilih (uniquely delicious with salted cheese crackers were complimented by most)
3. Kek Lapis Pisang Poppyseed (also equally complimented for moist and surprise crunchy bits)
4. Apam Dot-Dot (from my niece EnaTw2 - very popular amongst small kids)
5. Moist Chocolate Cake (from KakNgahEla - who can reject chocolate....)
6. Bingka Labu (requested by my 4th brother and for makcik2 & pakcik2 memang laku....heeee)
7. Pandan & Coconut Jelly (no one can resist the unique pandan and coconut combination...!)
8. Lompat Tikam Sagu (my popular dessert amongst friends & families besides in the blogworld)
9. Kek Buah Kukus (from my sister Akmal - well done my sis)
PHOTO below:
10. Tiramisu (gone in a blink! Tens of plates around me the moment I took it out from the fridge....LOL)
11. Nasi Goreng Ayam (on average 3 plates per person....LOL!)
12. Sup Tulang (to compliment the rice)
13. Laksa Sarawak (1st time introducing it to all my families....so-so, some not used to its unique spice taste)
14. Fresh Mango Juice (the mangoes were from my backyard in Miri)
15. Kopi Kaw

The gathering ended past midnight and most of the food were finished with big compliments to the host and chef....LOL (very satisfied to be able to treat my families and most of all my mom's certification of food quality....hehe).
Most popular dessert of the day

Main meals (rice & laksa) were served in the patio under the moonshine.... (with lighting too of course...hehe)

Late snap, half of chicken in the 2nd pot were already gone

Evergreen Layered Cake (Kek Lapis Pandan)

 I made this lovely moist layered cake as a gift to a friend who will be leaving Miri to work in KL (Captain & wife, KakNorbaini). This cake is simply flavored by strong pandan and coconut milk, producing very moist cake. It keeps well for a week at room temperature or many months in fridge.

I made two layered cakes in a day - can you see the one behind...? I'll post the other one later. Enjoy the photos for now, I'm having terrible neck pain and migraine again - also am very busy for something and therefore will be taking break from blogging for a while - will update more when ready to come back..... taaaaa!
BAHASA MALAYSIA VERSION
Kek Lapis Pandan Evergreen ni sangat popular kat Sarawak kerana haruman pandan & lemak santan dan juga tekstur kek yg lembab & lembut. Along buat ni untuk hadiahkan kpd kawan yg akan berpindah ke KL.

Kekawan semua, Along nak cuti blogging jap ya... sakit tengkuk & migraine menyerang lagi.... ada banyak hal nak buat ni, tak menang tangan & kepala. Nanti kendian kita update lagi, Along buat dua biji kek, sebiji lagi yg kat background tu, tunggu kendian ya.....

Banana & Poppy Seeds Cake

 This cake has a perfect combination of banana and poppy seeds. I give this 5* and my best rated banana cake so far - light as chiffon but moist and slightly crumbly - rich of banana and butter taste with crunchy sensation in every bites - a perfect texture to my liking. I have not been baking for quite a while and my hubby chomped 1/8th of the cake the moment it came out from the oven. We all love to eat hot cakes and this one is no exception!
Brought some to the office too - good feedback from everyone....

Sambal Petai Cili Api

I had this delicious dish cooked by a friend, KakNorBaini (Captain's wife)... it was so good that I didn't touch any other dishes during the dinner invite. The dish uses Cili Padi but surprisingly it was not too hot, I think because it has been stir-fried until fragrant & crispy.... or may be because I have high tolerence. It was quite some time ago when I had the treat so I decided to make the dish myself after consulting her again.

Bubur Asyura Sarawak

Ashura day fell on 10 Muharam on Muslim calendar i.e. it was Tuesday 6th December this year. The common culture in Malaysia was to fast on the day & serve Bubur Ashura to neighborhood to denote the historical significance during the war. Food were scarce during the war,  so everybody donated whatever they had which made up of wheat, barley, assorted beans, corn, etcs & cooked them jointly into Bubur Asyura. Various places in Malaysia will have different version, some are sweet and some are savoury; on the other hand whilst some are in porridge form, some others are in pudding/kuih form. In Sarawak, typically are savoury in porridge form.

I received a bowl of Bubur Ashura from thoughtful CikTie.... first time I tried the Sarawak version & wow... I like it a lot - really tasty & filling. Thanks so much for being thoughtful always.

According to CikTie, she mix beef soup, rice, barley, green/red beans....(CikTie anything else...? I forgot what you told me) into a slow cooker.

BAHASA MALAYSIA VERSION
Pertama kali Along merasa Bubur Asyura Sarawak .... terima drpd kawan rapat CikTie.... sedaaaap nyaaaa... kalau tak rasa tak tau!

Kata CikTie, nak buat ni senang - campak semua bahan2 ke dlm slow cooker - sup daging, barli, kekacang... lain2 tu Along tak ingat lah pulak.... nanti nak kena tanya semula & insyaallah nak cuba buat nanti.

Baby Doughnuts (Doughnuts III)

Shaping & decorating these little doughnuts was so much fun. I made them for Liana's bento to school today. It was her 3rd day in school warming up for her real entry next year. I made three differnet shapes - doughnut / round / oval with assorted toppings and filling. She loves the pink decorated doughnuts and not other colors.
 I called them baby doughnuts because they are so tiny... see photo below, you can see that they are smaller than grade B egg! Children will love it... also suitable size for adults on diet...hehe.
Baby doughnut ni lebih kecil dari sebiji telur saiz B
 See below the bite through texture.... very soft and kept well until the next day. Suitable for early preparation for bento to school.
See the soft texture. This one is injected with wild blueberry jam.
Actually I made almost similar potato doughnuts earlier at here.

Curry Puffs IV (Karipap Rangup)

 Had a piece of hot curry puff fresh from a wok and with a cup of coffee in the evening.... sitting quietly in the side patio with soft breeze and overlooking my newly arranged flower pots... what a relaxing mind... I wanted to forget everything else but just the curry puffs... hehehe!

This time I tried another version of curry puff pastry. It is almost similar to the one I posted earlier here except this one uses hot oil instead of margarine. Truely crispy but make sure you fry long enough so that it cooked till the inside layers.

Flatten it & fill with preferred filling (I made sweet potato and beef filling).

Selalu nya Along guna resepi kat sini, so bila buat malas nak ulang tayang terutama bila low mood. Kali ni Along cuba resepi lain pula, hampir2 serupa juga dgn resepi pertama tu (letak tepung ubi & tepung beras) cuma kali ni guna minyak panas. Memang ranguuuuuup....! Cuma pesanan Along, goreng karipap kena lama2 baru lah rangup sehingga ke lapisan dalam.
