Lempeng Pisang

I remembered when I was a small kid, my mom and nenek will always made many things out of bananas.. really buah-buahan serbaguna.. name it u will get it..cekodok pisang, lempen gpisang, pengat pisang...lepat pisang...daun pisang leh buat kuih2 lain yang dikukus... wah sedapnya...! how I wish i can easily make everything..other word, banyak pokok pisang dibela dibelakang rumah.. I have once asked other half whether or not I can tanam pokok pisang belakang umah. He quipped NO, nanti beranak pinak susah nak mati... ishh...ada je alasan kan..
Anyway, my point is, I really love lempeng pisang.. ishh.. apa beza lempeng pisang dengan cekodok pisang eh?
Haa...tu la ramai tak tau.. kalau cekodok pisang, lebih tepung..so that leh digoreng minyak penuh.. tapi kalau lempeng pisang, lebih pisang..bila makan tu rasa piiiisssaaannnggg je...!! lembek2 kenyal2 gitu.. adunan lempeng pisang kalau buat cekodok sure tak sedap, sebab benyek..
so for the first time kat umah, ada pisang 5 biji yang dah benyek tu..lenyek2 buh gula 3 sudu...buh tepung gandum 5 sudu besar... pastu buh air garam setengah cawan... lempengkan atas kuali tefal...kalau takder cari kuali yang tak lekat tu..non-stick.. mine bukan la tefal..tu hadiah dari Omah...ala2 tefal but non branded..
rupanya senang pakai non-stick kuali ni...buat lempeng pisan gpun senang nak balikkan.. teringat masa dulu..nak makan lempeng pisang tapi bab kerak hangus tu yg back off.. ye laa mak dulu mana ada duit nak beli non-stick wok ni...
kalau arwah atuk, dia suruh alaskan dengan daun pisang..dh la sedap wanggii jee...
tapi point here is, punya laa suka alia n angah lempeng pisang ni.. berebut2 sambil bergotong royong kat umah..
as per Alia..nanti mam abuat lagi ye....! I will surely....:)

Cekodok Pisang

Semalam, pi keja my office mate bawak seplastik pisang emas masak... dia suruh i bawak balik..akak kan masak hari2 kak..ni akka masak laa kek ke cekodok ke..

true enough, i bawak balik the pisang sesikat...sampai umah pisang diserang oleh adha..he is banana fanatic! lepas amik emir yang tak berapa nak sihat tu...(merengek je baby mama sorang ni...) i have to plan what to cook for the family.. jenguk2 lauk atas meja atas dapur..ada belen gulai ikan talang + nenas...

sambal belacan + nenas pun ada setengah piring lagi... tu je ke yg tinggal... keluarkan ayam ada ikan kerisi... hmm.. leh buat sup ayam + ikan kerisi goreng sambal... pastu leh mintak kakak tolon glecekkan pisang.. nak buat kek ke nak buat cekodok..

dah siap masak lauk.. lepas kakak lecekkan pisang.. hmm.. have to decide ni.. nak kek ke nak cekodok.. my mind raced between these two.. first choice mmg la kek..as why? leh dapat banyak, n leh bawak ke opis esok.. drawback: asyikk kek je these few weeks.. jemu gak.. plus other half tak berapa gemar kek kampungan i ni..(berlagak laa kan laki ku itu...!) second choice in my mind...mmg sedap di makan depan tv dgn famili... tapi drawbacks: surely tak cukupo nak bawak pi opis sedangkan pisang tu opismet yg bagi... lastly i bua tgak cekodok, memandang kan ada lagi pisan gbaki2 yang i beli previously.. tu leh bua tkek malam ni...

true enough, sumer mengadap cekoodk during tv time....sampai tak makan malam la my self.. other half makan malam pun dah pkl 10...

Kek Kukus Pisang On Demand

sekarang ni tengah musim orang ganti puasa..almaklumla ni dah rejab, next month Syaaban pastu dah Ramadhan...ooo mak ai..cepatnya masa berlalu..Time REALLY FLIES! To cut the story short, i pun tengah sibuk mengganti puasa gak ni.. buat Monday n Thursday.. so yesterday I berpuasa laa cengkononnya...

Balik umah, kena masak kan.. so on theway home (auto-mode driving as usual), pikior ni nak masak apa.. ada kepala ikan tenggiri, ada nenas...pikir2 nak masak gulai lemak kepala ikan tenggiri campur nenas.. (melelh ayor liur ni...) pastu leh tambah sambal belacan + nenas gak.. mak oiiiiii.....

So sampai umah dah 630.. kena amik emir dulu...tgk Opah tgh menggentel karipap..(cantik tau opah kelim karipap tu..!) pastu emir dalam walker tgk je opah buat keja.. amik dia, balik umah, masak air, kemaskan meja..kemas dapur dulu.. my habit tak tau laa bad habit ke good habit ke..pantang nak masak memacam yang kotor/perlu dibersihkan atas dapur/sinki/meja makan.. kena laa kemas dulu kan baru tenang nak masak... i spent ard 10 minutes for that before leh masak air... masak air, buat teh o panas..ard 7pm ada org datang ingatkan kakak n angah balik, rupanya Acu datang pulangkan my periuk cum steamer beserta KARIPAP yang baru siap digoreng oleh opah... leh la buat berbuka... minutes later, kakak n angah balik from skool... bawak kertas exam...results: for Kakak yang kepochi tu Alhamdulillah...quite a number of 100 marks.. but for Angah.. Alhamdulillah gak la..boleh scored 60% and above... Kakak is a language person but not analytical, angah is analytical but not that linguistic.. kena la accept the facts kalau dah jadik mama ni.. walaupun mama ni belajor sampai obersee.. hmmm...anyway, kakak balik panting, begging me to prepare Kek Pisang... weekend kan mama dah buat tapi separuh dah bagi kat tokcit.. jadinya kakak nak makan lagi kek pisang mama tu..

Kakak: Mama, kakak mintak sangat2 mama buat kek pisang malam ni jugak...
Mama: Napa pulak.. mama nak masak ikan lagi, nak buat sambal belacan lagi... mama nak buka ni... kenapa nak suruh mama buat kek pisang jugak
Kakak: Mama kena jugak buat kek tu... sebab kakak dah janji dengan Ifah
Mama: Kakak janji apa dengan Ifah?
Kakak: Kakak dah janji dengan Ifah nak bawak Kek Pisang esok... kakak dah cakap dengan Ifah, mama buat kek pisang MAVELES..
Mama: mak oi...(dalam hati je laaa...)

End of story, lepas buka, other half balik, mama tgh lecek2kan pisang...

Ayah: mama masak apa lagi..?
Mama: Kek pisang permintaan anak dara ayah la..
Ayah: hmmmm.......

Welcome Back Menus

Poyoss je.. yelah dah almost 2 weeks my 2 elders 'loaned' to my parents in Johore.. last Friday they came back with their Muksu n her fiance.. thanks to Ucu n Acik Achid for sending them home safely..eventhough they arrived quarter to midnight that Friday..

So, mamas head ni spinning laa memikirkan nak masak apa for esok...plus ther Atam and wife and baby Chienta will be visiting us too...

Ada ayam seko..ada banana.. terus pikior nak masak nasi ayam and kek banana.. tapi pepagi subuh lepas other half pi keja, terus le tgk periuk banyak nasik since they did not eat last night, penat sangat i think..so bua tle nasik goreng belacan (campur crabstick n prawnballs..! nyumm..nyummm...) pastu jalankan mesin basuh, baby plak tak meragam.. adha dah ada ucu menjaga..so, mama a little bit free nak buat something else.. buat ke Kek Kukus Pisang...!!! jangan tak percaya, Ucu pun kata...kejap nya mama ni masak kek dah siap..

almost mid day, ucu's fiance bangun, pun terkejut, sempat ye kak buat kuih dgn anak2 lagi.. tah le.. dah terbiasa...kalau org datang umah takder apa2 rasa cam tak welcome ppl to my house plak... insyaAllah kalau kita jaga hati tetamu kita, tetamu balik bawak dosa2 kecik kita sama.. amin..! lagi plak they both dah cukup baik and save my few hundreds bawak my kids balik safely...! i don;t know any other ways to say thank you other than feeding them generously...! in fact, other half also knew i will do that to our guests..

lepas brunch..borak2 dgn ucu nak masak nasi ayam la... in the end UCU yang masak nasik ayam tu....anak2 mama meragam..hahhahaha..thank you Ucu...

Puding Jagung

Rajin nya akak ni bawak macam2 yek...one remarks i received from a colleague on Monday morning when I put a tupperware full of puding jagung..

bragging lagi ke i ni.... hihi

bukan laa nak brag lagi... it's just that my new neighbourhood is a total difference from the old ones..altough many of us baya2 kami je...tapi ramai yang bawak parents dok sekali...banyak plak Malays.. so, adat2 Melayu tu mmg terasa..adat cemana tu hek...? one adat is..orang memberi kita merasa, org berbudi kita berbahasa.. bagi2 food ni kat jiran tetangga... pastu balas balik dgn any food.. mak aiii...

so to cut the story short, last Friday when I fetched Emir, Opah suruh Acu ikut sekali bawak food... dia bagi cucur la...the next morning Acu ketuk umah, bagi nasi lemak 2 bungkus..adui....banyak nya nak kena balas..takkan nak bagi tupperware kosong kan kalau pulangkan bekas..

so, that saturday, Alia n Faiz still tak balik2 lagi kan... tinggal la i with the 2 babies... they all tak banyak kerenah...pagi tido 2 jam lebih i sempat la membasuh, mengemas bagai... tengah hari depa bangun play around with me..bagi makan etc... bawak they both naik ke dapur.. nampak la jagung manis setin..and bird's custard... leh la nak buat puding jagung.. so terus amik periuk masukkan bird's custard, masukkan santan kotak tu ada la suku kotak kecik tu hah... masukkan susu setengah cawan campur lagi air dalam 2 cawan setengah... buh garam sikit je... i whisk atas api slow...adha sibuk main dgn Suvee the rabbit, emir berguling2 atas baby bouncer... after a little bubble i buh gula dalam 3-4 senduk... pastu masukkan jagung setin tadi... kacau lagi sampai tanak...(bubble besar2 tu la.. camlahar gunung berapi...:P) dah tutup api, masukkan dalam bekas..sejukkan... i masukkan dalam bekas kaca Opah tu sebab nak membalas cucur dia semalam.. another portion i buh dalam tupperware je...sejukkan dulu....dah tak berasap, barulaa masukkan dalam peti sejuk...!

yang kat gambar tu the last portion yang tinggal lepas bagi Opah...lepas i bawak pi ofis...Left for Adha since dia suka sangat kuih ni..... eh, mama pun suka tau....!

Nutritious Food (or rather drink) for Health

Hi.. dah lama nak post regarding this issue.. tapi banyak halangan sebab nanti orang kata i menjaja dalam blog... hahahhaha...not really la...

After back from my fourth (fifth to be exact), confinement, I am back to a good shape.. I am not bragging..but I am now able to put on my LEVI's siz 29, which I kept for years after putting on so much weight..! I don't believe myself too, as I was thinking it would be only temporary for few weeks after confinement period... but, telling the truth..its been more than 3 months after my confinement and I still fit to the jeans!

Maybe some people think I am just 'berangan' laa dgn this post.. hahaha...well, kalau soran gdua yang cakap I slim down, I tak percaya gak..mebbe dioran gsaja nak amik hati.. (hihih...) but, every person yg jumpa i before bersalin and lepas confinement, sumer tanya apa jamu I amik during confinement yg I slim down so much! kawan2.. nak jaga hati je kot.. tapi what makes me believe and terus nak share the tips is my other half remarks one fine night, he whispered yang dia suka badan I now...his words were sound this way: hmm.. badan dah mantap balik! tunjuk my badan la bukan badan dia kay...bdan dia mmg menten walau dah 10 tahun kenal n 9 tahun hidup sama.. naik laa sikit 2-3 inci...!

so, the tips are the follows:

Yes, it was HERBALIFE... tapi bukan la totally I depend on it... cemana nak citer hek... I am on Herbalife since 2009.. tapi I beli satu set je..I tried that for the whole year dari pregnant sampi lepas confinement anak yang ke-3.. tapi I didn't take it everyday.. cuma masa bulan posa (dok umah soran glepas balik keja, buka sorang2 since the elder two kat umah uwan school time) and other half selalu balik lepas buka.. so, i berbuka dgn herbalife drink secawan... tunggu fetch other half baru makan buka dgn other meals.. sahur i never skip though.. tapi my first set tu habis dekat setahun gak la...although it meant for ONE MONTH!!

I have my own reason as why i delay the consumption:

first: forget (sengaja forgot pun always sebab food lain MENGANCAMMM!!)

second: my third baby came out 4.22kg!! so I am afraid herbalife is one of the main reason the baby grew so big in my stomach...

after delivery of my third child, i breastfed my baby and left herbalife untouch because i amfraid he will be BIG!! only after few months i dare to consume it once in a while... till i found myself PREGNANT again after 4 months delivery of my third... (subur sungguh!!!)

I didn't dare to drink it again(takut pisang berbuah dua kali...!) yet, i deliverd safely to a 3.79kg angel, Emir.. still bigger than angah n kakak too...Emir dah keluar, after 3 months I amik lagi satu set herbalife produk.. Em dah 5 bulan ++ ni pun my herbalife is still 3/4 full.. meaning.. mmg i tak disiplin amik this drink, but it still give me a good metabolism rate... sebabnya, kalau dulu2 lepas beranak i tak jaga makan...maka my 70kg mesti dalam tangan... now I am happy to maintain ideal weight (although dah few months delivered Emir.. 60-63 kg...!) on eremarks from an Admin Officer kat my work place ni, Kak Zauyah.. she said, hmm...macam ni dah ok dah Farah, jangan gemuk lagi jangan kurus lagi.... *wink*

takder la i nak meniaga kat sini.. tapi sesapa yang teringin nak reduce weight, I really recommend this drink.... tapi giler MAHAL!!! as per few ppl that I know... i am telling you, I bought it for RM250 only for the set of Formula 1, Formula 3 and its Teamix... I am so sad to hear my colleague bought it for RM300++ even without the Formula 3 (Formula 3 ni laa yang bagi kita rasa kenyang...kalau takder tak guna kena tipu beli herbalife...!)

so sapa2 nak, just email me..for RM250, it is worth of your money babe... sebab takyah kuar duit for lunch... bakat aNabil Raja LAwak, LU KIRA LAA SENDIRI...!!

hihii.....

Asam Pedas Orang Malas

Two days ago, I came home very early about 6.30..thanks to school hols..so, I fetched Emir first thing after I reached home.

Other half YMed me informing he won't be home early anyway.. I have taken out kepala ikan jenahak to defrost before i zoom to work.. so i planned to prepare soup kepala ikan jenahak.. however, baby Emir was not settled today.. mebbe because his bros n sis are not around, he needs more attention from them and MISS them too..? *sob..sob....*

So, what tcook if Emir is like that...I lay down next to him and accompany him playing this and that....totally HAVE TO forget my soup kepala ikan jenahak..! only half past 8 other half reached home and i asked him to look after baby Emir while I need to cook..! he did..! after a while he brought Emir up to the first floor where i suppose to cook... i continue cooking anyway..slight ly after 40 mins or so my soup became ASAM PEDAS...

I asked other half to eat whilst I have a look at baby Emir.. guess what his reply??

Ayah: "Eh, mama dah siap masak ke?"
Mama: "Dah le.. asam pedas..."
Ayah:"kejap beno... ni mesti mama masak org malas kannn....main boh-boh je masak tu...!" (sambil gaga si Emir...)
Mama: "amboihh.....(puting tetek ayah kena cubit laa kan...!) bini orang lain belum tentu balik kerja nak masak tau...sedap je kata mama masak orang malas...!"

Sabo je laaaaa....

Cekodok Stroberi

HAhhahaha..korang suka cekodok? Sedap for tea time kan...mmg best pun.. tapi kalau cekodok ikan bilis tu, too classic for my kids.. so apa i buat, i put color kat cekodok tu...

My new neighbourhood ni very good, weekend is a good time to mingle dok kat depan umah sambil monitor anak2 main kat jalan tu.. few times we had our teatime this way.. so one day, i decided to buat cekodok stroberi for tea... amik tempung gandum, buh telur sebijik, gula sesenduk, kalau ada susu tepung, buh agak2 2 sudu besar... amik soda bikarbonat, baking power agak2 hujung sudu je... masukkan air garam..gaul2 rata sampai leh cucur kan...pastu masukkan setengah sudu sirap DOuble LIon tu..... merah la jadiknya kan..buh esen vanila or pandan sikit... bagi naik bau

goreng cam cekodok biasa...hidangkan....even Opah si Emir punkata....sedap nya...!! terus dia suruh anak dara dia buat cekodok for the night...

Tapi kalau nak rasa stroberi kan, leh je nak masukkan sikit jem stroberi kalau ada..agak2 2 sudu.... bagi naik bau n rasa kan.. nanti i try!
