Ice Lemon Tea

Even though wheather has been cold & wet late weeks, my throat felt so dry & thirsty. Must be the left over effect from the recent sore throat.

I never like any citrus fruits, drink or any food with that content. My sore throat was prolonged for weeks despite two rounds of anti biotic prescribed by the clinic & the doctor advise me not to consume any dairies in order to reduce development of phlegm. That means I cannot drink my favourite Teh Tarek....! Then one day, when I was patronising one restaurant, the owner insist that I should drink his so claimed tasty hot lemon tea. Although hesitated I agreed to give it a try.... Gheee... I'm glad that I tried... it was nice indeed and also very soothing. Ever since, I drink hot lemon tea everyday as it not only helps with my sore throat but also contains vitamin C which my body needs at the moment.

So today, I made my very first Ice Lemon Tea....hahaha.... just a story to share.

INGREDIENTS:
A glass of sweeten Tea
Few slices of Lemon
Ice Cubes

Mix them all & serve...!

Doughnuts

Hari ni bangun pagi2 lagi dah nguli donat. Air liur kempunan dah meleleh-leleh berapa hari dah ni...pegi rumah ke rumah baru2 ni sume ada donat lak... Walau pun masak nasi lemak utk sarapan, buat juga lah donat ni utk lepas kempunan....huhuhu.

Along buat donat cuma bila balik kampung sebab demand memang tinggi. Selalu nya kalau buat tak pernah buat sikit, sekilo atau 2 kilo tepung, itu pun kekadang tak cukup you. Tak menang tangan nak menggoreng, angkat je terus kena serbu, hehehe.

Nak buat donat ni, sukatan tak perlu tepat, lebih kurang je pun jadi. Kat rumah sendiri tak pernah pun buat donat sebab "bahan2 asli" susah nak dapat kat Miri ni. Kat kampung, Along guna yis basah & hanya guna tepung gandum biasa tapi donut dia memang lembut sampai ke petang. Ini kes kempunan punya pasal, kita buat lah jugak tapi modify guna "bahan2 moden" seperti jenis tepung, yis segera & pelembut. Along buat tadi tu, Along agak2 je & lepas tu sukat supaya senang nak share resipi kat sini.

Lagi satu, bahan salut tu Along guna campuran gula & susu tepung supaya rasanya kurang manis tapi lemak2 gitu...

Here it goes.....
