Steam bread pudding

Since a few friends also request for this recipe (apart fr those who 'meeboed' me), am posting it here again so check it out.

Steam Bread Pudding yg sempoi!
4-5 slices gardenia - any other brand can also do
1/2 cup susu cair
1/2 cup water
2 eggs - medium sized
1tsp vanilla essence
1/3 cup sugar - to make the caramel

The action:
(use big bowl ok)
Beat eggs and sugar till kembang ( i only use fork, not the mixer).
Drop the vanilla essence
Add susu cair and water. Stir till well mixed all the ingredients.
Cerai-ceraikan roti and add into the bowl, tekan-tekan roti till it mixes well and soaked in the mixture.
Finally, bring to a slow heat 6-7 table spoons of sugar (put inside the mould), let it melt till the colour turns brown, off the heat and let it cool.
Tuang your bread mixture inside the mould, cover with aluminium foil, and steam to a medium heat for 25-30 minutes.

-you can also opt to bake if u like!
-if you wanna have thick pudding, add in more bread, susu, water & sugar and adjust it to your instinct :)
- can add raisin, almond or segala tok nenek as u wish too (pruzz suke plain pudding jer)

Ok tu sajer, happy trying peeps!


p/s: pruzz bley habiskan seloyang in 2 days :p his feveret!

(custard sauce kat sebelah tu dah lupa caner nak buat hehe so abaikan)

being in Cyberjaya...

I can imagine the frustration of Menara T* community whenever they come down to the parking lot at 5pm, hurrying board the car, put on the right gear, pijak peddle, and hey the car is moving like bumper to bumper and as your car gets outside the parking lot, another traffic is waiting. That's normal during the month of Ramadhan. I'd experienced that years ago, when i was in Menara. I even experienced broke my fast with sweets only inside the car, but no blame to the traffic, it was me who had to stayback to do financial closing (FMA story, takyahla flashback nanti sedey hehe)

Now things change. Am now in Cyberjaya, a heaven place with no traffic jem whatsoever. Punch out at 5pm and i'll be home at 530pm. Traffic flow is normal, no headache, no shouting, no lawan-lawan hon dgn keta lain, etc. That's another reason why am so determined to cook for our breakfasting instead of hanging around at bazar ramadhan to search for lauk ( the main reason spt biasa we're on kempen berjimat cermat hehe). Last yr we bought lauk at bazar, and i can still remember a piece of chicken costs you RM3, a piece of simple ikan goreng also sold at RM3 (kalau rasa sedap sgt takpe ok, ni biasa jer). Sayur i cant remember, but still mahal rasanyer. Mee goreng, mihun goreng, nasi ayam, beriani ....the price was still considered ok and worth buying.

Oh btw yesterday we didnt wake up for sahur, hence bazar was the choice. Today im back to the track, and we'll be having paprik ayam+sotong+udang+vege plus bread pudding this evening. The pudding was prepared at 3am in the morning! not that am too rajin ppl, i just couldnt sleep after feeding idlan at 230am, hence resulted me going to the kitchen and do something :p I sleep back at 620 and only woke up at 730am, had a quick shower and off to office. Sian idlan tak sempat masak food dia sori sayang!

Happy working ppl!

I can feel my blood running upstairs rite now. Dealing with customers is not that easy, hence when we were sent for training, we see the word “difficult customer”. Why such term exist? It’s because that kind of customer did exist. And they create hassle and so much trouble till you feel like shouting and slamming down the phone but hey, customer is the KING. Can you shout at them? NO you can’t. You must maintain the tone of your voice, lower it to the max even if deep down inside you feel like bloating.

That is customer. Full stop.

But what if the internal person in my company itself that brought the trouble? What if the person refused to co-operate or troubleshoot outage received from customer, claiming that our network is perfect when in fact it is not? I just hate dealing with these types of ppl, who thinks they are so good considering they’ve worked for the co for years. People who think they know ALL.

Oh God, please keep the patience with me.

Menu - minggu pertama

Pertama sekali, Selamat Menyambut Ramadhan kepada kengkawan semua. Alhamdulillah kita masih diberi peluang untuk menghadapi dan menikmati kemanisan bulan ini buat kesekian kalinya pada tahun ini. Semoga amal ibadah kita diberkatiNya, dan semoga kita diberi kekuatan untuk menambah dan mempertingkatkan lagi amalan2 yang dituntut, sama ada yg wajib ataupun sunat. Harapan saya, mintak2lah saya berjaya solat penuh Terawikh, dan membaca Al-Quran sebanyak mungkin.

Antara azam lain, saya ingat nak cuba memaksimakan memasak sendiri di rumah utk sahur/berbuka. Di samping menjimatkan duit, dapat juga pahala ye tak :p Tapi since si suami tersangatla suka makan kuih, maka mungkin kami akan singgah di pasar utk membeli kuih barang seringgit dua, selebihnyer...home made!

Ini menu saya (penat pk hehe), agak simple tapi cukupla utk kami berdua:

Ahad - tomyam campur+telur dadar+sayur
Isnin - ayam masak merah+sayur
Selasa - Mee hailam
Rabu - Sotong kicap+telur dadar+sayur
Khamis - Sambal tumis udang+ikan goreng+sayur
Jumaat - tade idea lagi, mungkin beli hehe
Sabtu - nasi ayam+dessert cream caramel
Ahad - tade idea lagi

Sahur pula, yang confirm first day nanti nasi panas+sardin+telur masak kicap (daku sudah terliur :p)
Hari-hari lain tak pasti lagi, mungkin recycle lauk time berbuka, atau scramble egg, koko crunch, nasi goreng, mee goreng, etc etc....

Harap2 plan kali ni menjadi...taun lepas prestasi agak kurang memberangsangkan, maka taun ni kena cuba pertingkatkan lagi ewahh. Petang ni kami akan ke careffoure utk membeli segala provisions yg diperlukan.

So Selamat Berpuasa semua. Kerja rajin2 ok!

p/s: order biskut raya ditutup pd 1st week puasa ok...tq.

accident

Dpt call mlm tadi dr abang informed yg adik kitorang accident ptg kelmarin. Aku tanye teruk ke..abg aku jwb, adela patah sket2, skang kat emergency ward. Aku terkejut plak, terus tanyer..koma ke weh? Abg aku jwb..tadela sampai koma...(sambil tergelak-gelak).

Rupanye adik patah sebtg gigi kapak, gigi kapak satu lagi patah separuh. Bibir bengkak kena jahit. Bila ditanye camner berlaku exactly, dia tak brape igt..dia cuma kata dia naik motor, nak elak lori, then tergesel wira, and jatuh.

Hmm skang tgh mkn soft food, jaw dia bengkak teruk...tp mujur tak patah sana-sini alhamdulillah.

Nasihat aku, kpd bebudak di luar sana yg baru dpt lesen, bwk motor tu berhati-hati, jgn ikut darah muda, kalo accident ke ape ke...mak ayah jugak yg penat ke hulu hilir menjaga dan sebagainyer........sigh*

Adik tuh baru je balik kl sabtu lepas cuti seminggu, patutnyer ahad ni balik KK balik, ni dah jadi camni..ntah kot postpone balik sana..........

of latest updates (part II)

Khas kpd pembaca2 yg merindui daku (ahaksss), maka saya postkan entry terbaru dari cyberjaya....:)

- kenape tak update? malas satu, byk keje satu, pastuh malas nak reka ayat one thing...itula sebabnyer

Idlan:
1. Last wk kami bawa dia ke Damansara Specialist Hosp, sbb batuk dia prolong seminggu lebih, plus sesema hampir sebulan. Alhamdulillah paed cum chest pyhsician Dato' Dr Azizi tu ckp dada idlan ok, cumanyer disebabkan idlan mmg ade allergy and eczema, tu pasal la allergy tu trigger ke hidung sampai hingus lelama tuh. Dua hari lepas mkn ubat dr, idlan dah ok (dia nak ubat memahal hehe, kat klinik takde ubat tuh). Doc prescribe ventolin, clarytine and UV cream utk sapu kat tpt2 yg naik rashes. Dr pesan jgn kasi mkn kicap, vitagen, yakult, dan segala jenis makanan yg ade preservative. Dlm erti kata lain, masaklah fresh food utk dia. Nak kasik ayam, kasi ayam fresh, jgn kasik nugget..gitula lebey kurang. Plus dia ade eczema, of which kitorang sendiri susah nak detect ape sebenarnyer yg trigger dia nyer allergy. Kadang dia mkn telur ok, kadang naik rashes..sames goes to ayam, etc....cumanyer skang kena lebey berhati-hati. Dan paling penting, masak FRESH FOOD ONLY! Btw, dr puji mama idlan hehe...sbb so far mama dia mmg msk makanan sendiri, cuma kena kurangkan kicap. So pasni msk spaghetti, tak bubuh dah tomato sos and kicap, instead aku guna olive oil and fresh tomatoe. Masak sup, jgn guna chicken/beef stock..gunala bwg putih dan halia bebyk...biar sume natural takde preservative langsung.

2. Disebabkan berat bdn idlan dah lama tak bertambah (10kg++ since 1thn 2 bln), kitorang decide tukar ke Peadiasure...sbb ade ofismate kata anak dia pon tak mkn byk, minum susu tu jer, tp tembam yg amat....saje la try kot bley menambahkan berat idlan. Aku pon dah rimas bila umi asyik ckp..."siannyer umi tgk idlan kurus sesgt". Pressure beb pressure arghhh ...padahal makanan msk everyday dah cuba varietykan..tp dah mmg dia jenis tak pemakan..tak larat nak paksa dah frustrated pon ader. Poket koyak sket sbb tukar susu mahal tp idlan nyer pasal...ape sahaja hehe....baru abis setin, tade effect pon, tgk next tin camner..kalo takde effect gak, ohh selamat tinggal Pediasure. Btw Dr Azizi tu kata, peadiasure tu harap je mahal, tp senarnyer tak membantu sgt pon, except dia nyer kalori lebey sket from susu biasa yg murah2 tuh..ntahla...tgkla camner kan. And yg membuat aku tersenyum sket, doc kata anak awak ni kurus sbb genetik ni...hehe mama terperasan sekejaps!

3. Idlan dah nak masuk 1thn 9bln tak lama lagi. Vocab dia masih kurang lagi, yg paling jelas sebutan mama, abah, dog, nanana (banana), bobob (spongebob), papada (papaya), abang...tu je kot tapi tu pon dah cukup memberangsangkan pd kami. Seronok hati bila dgr bgn pagi jek sebut "mama mama mama"....lembut plak tu sebutannyer comei jer

Financial:
Spt julie, kitorang pon tgh lancar kempen berjimat cermat (walaupun kekadang aku terbabas). Loan umah dah kena bayar mahal, gaji tak naik, so camner tuh? Skang tgh berusaha utk masak sendiri kat umah. Berjaya bwk bekal ke ofis sekali sekala, tp kadang tu tak berjaya sbb bgn lamat hoho. Tapi bulan pose ni kena mendisiplinkan diri utk msk sendiri caiyo caiyo! Dan kena tahan diri tak pegi JJ Equine tu every weekend. Susah gak bila umah dekat sgt ngan tpt shopping, asyik tempted je nak pegi..demmm

Taun ni jugak berazam nak buat biskut raya sendiri, biskut pertama dah ade dlm list..insya allah sedap hehe, tgh cari resepi2 lain yg best.

Diri:
Insya Allah aku akan proceed jugak master kali ni, walaupun nanti kalau tak dpt scholar, kena korek savings utk teruskan. Kalo Aini bakal pakai jubah UIA, aku plak bakal konvo kat utara...waaaa jauh tu beb hehe bley terbabas shopping ke Langkawi terus ahakss....(dah berangan jauh, padahal blum register pon lagi :p)

Lagi satu, lately aku senang benar kena migrain, kadang tu tak semena-mena sakit pala, padahal mkn cukup, tido cukup...ntahla ape jadi....perlu ke jumpe specialist eh..takut plak, tapi malas nak pk hoho. So slalunyer rely pd ponstan jela.
