Black Pepper Beef Liver II

My younger brother & I cooked similar dish for my sister's wedding recently but to our dismay it was stolen from the table minutes after the bride & groom walked out from it. There were two plates of it and both were gone but other dishes prepared by the caterer were still there. Not only it was delicious but also beautifully decorated. Too bad I didn't carry my own camera to snap any photo. Since I had some beef liver from the qurban this year, I recook the same dish last night for hubby & children - they all love it! I made slight variation actually and simplified the method and ingredients.

Photo below downloaded from my SIL's fb - no sight of my Black Pepper Beef Liver - they were on far left & right. Anyway, congrats to my sister Rafidahtul and Rahimie - we all pray for her happiness always.

Lauk lain takda pula di kebas... (kek lapis Along pun lesap juga sebenar nya)... isyk2... teruk betul orang zaman sekarang ni tapi takpa lah halalkan je lah. Along terlupa bawa kamera, so takda gambo lauk tu, cameraman kata belum siap proses nak tunggu 3 bulan....

Kek Lapis Keju (Cheese Layered Cake)

 I was in a high spirit again... so here come another Sarawak layered cake! The good thing about this recipe it uses only 5 eggs unlike the typical Sarawak layered cakes which ranges from 10-30 eggs and yet it produces a reasonable size of cake. The texture is soft and it plainly delicious although ones may not be able to tell the cheese flavour. I guess the added cream cheese soften the texture apart from making it tasty. My hubby and children love this cake. Actually I am expecting a visitor this coming week-end, so hopefully the cake survives until then....hehe.

 The recipe in English will be provided upon request.

Kebiasaan nya kek lapis menggunakan 10-30bj telur bergantung pada resipi. Sebenar nya Along buat ni sebab ada tetamu FB dari KL yg akan berkunjung ke rumah hujung minggu ni.

Mini Durian Crepe

 It's a durian season in whole Malaysia and this is top of the list of most popular kuih right now.... For durian lover this is a must try! It is heavenly delicious with durian flesh enriched with sweet whipped cream. My earlier version is in the link here. This time I made it a bite size - see photo below comparing to a match box. This version has a different crepe and filling texture - personally I like the earlier version better which has a softer skin and more firm filling.

BAHASA MALAYSIA VERSION
Sekarang ni musim Durian Crepe.... al maklum musim duyan kan. Macam2 versi resepi yg di tayangkan. Along dah cuba versi K1 dulu kat sini yang hanya menggunakan tepung gandum dan kali ni nak cuba versi yg menggunakan pelbagai tepung pula. Resepi ni cantik berkilat tapi crepe nya agak kenyal berbanding dgn versi pertama dulu - ni mesti sebab letak tepung ubi. Kalau tanya Along, Along lebih suka versi pertama dulu. Along juga lebih suka inti whipping cream shj di bandingkan inti kali ni yg menggunakan cream kastad.

Along buat saiz kecil2, tengoklah gambar perbandingan dgn kotak mancis tu. Senang nak ngap, sekali masuk jer.

Hari ni berpeluang buat photo-shoot walaupun hanya lauk sempoi - sumber dari majalah Rasa tapi Along ada juga nampak KakAnim pun ada promote lauk ni sebelum ni kat sini. Sedap rupa nya lauk ni, daun ubikayu harum bila di rendang. Along buat tak kering sampai rangup seperti KakAnim sebab Along mahukan lembab2 sedikit utk makan dgn nasi.
