Rendang Raya

Special thing of this rendang because it is simple. Another for its prominent balance of hot and sweet taste. My late mother purposely split the dish into two portions and put more sugar in one so kids could take it with ketupat. I remember those yester years helping her pounding ingredients started with the galangal followed by the finely chopped lemon grasss to a very fine paste. Aruah is working on the pre-boiled dried chilles and unions with batu giling....then both hers and my portion is mixed with santan over the stove. It's easy to cook. No oil, no saute', no kerisik ; just blend and boil. I made this rendang for both Eids during those years studying abroad. Nowadays I had no chance to serve it as a Raya dish as to give away to other fancies and highly demanded rendang made my sister on my side and my MIL. My Rendang Raya goes well with pulut, not the white rice . I usually made this rendang in a small scale to celebrate the completion of puasa enam. This year, we had i

Kuih Makmur

Image
Ini adalah salah satu kuih hantaran pertunangan dari pihak cik Abang pada 5 Syawal 14.... Awwww... nostalgia. Bukan di sini cinta ku pada kuih ini bermula...tapi sejak kecil. Bila dewasa, inilah kuih wajib setiap raya. Bukan sedikit, ada lah kira-kira 2 kilo tepung di gentel untuk di bagi pada adik beradik. Tidak termasuk tempahan yang bertambah dari tahun ke tahun. Proses membuatnya leceh. Bermula dari menggoreng tepung sampai terasa licin ditangan macam tepung ubi. Ini lah rahsia makmur yang baik. Saya rela menggoreng sendiri kacang tanah, mengupas kulit dan menumbuk dengan lesung batu untuk inti yang lunak. Saya ingin miliki lesung yang di buat dari kayu jati yang biasa di guna untuk mengisar somtam. Agak nya nanti kerja menumbuk kacang lebih cepat kerana lesung itu besar.... KUIH MAKMUR Bahan-bahan: 500 gram minyak sapi tulin 1 kg tepung gandum - di goreng tanpa minyak Inti: 300 gram kacang tanah - goreng dan tumbuk sampai hancur Gula aising Cawan kertas yang kecil

Air Tangan Orang Yang Tidak Solat Semua orang tahu bahawa kalau meninggalkan solat tu, adalah dosa besar, dan malahan lebih hina drpd khinzir.. Betapa hinanya kita kalau meninggalkan solat spt yg dikisahkan pd zaman NabiMusa A.S Begini kisahnya... pada zaman Nabi Musa, ada seorang lelaki yg sudah berumahtangga , dia tak de zuriat lalu, terdetik dlm hati dia (nazar), "kalau aku dpt anak, aku akan minum air kencing anjing hitam." Nak dijadikan cerita, Allah pun kurniakan isteri si lelaki tadi pun hamil dan melahirkan anak. Bila dah dpt anak, laki ni pun runsinglah.. . Dia dah nazar nak kena m

In this recipe, sugar is halves from its original version of my foster mother Maryam O'Keefe. She would served this cake with evening chamomile tea, to me a really "teh kosong" because the taste is very mild at almost no aroma! That's explain why she made this cake very sweet and showered with a layer of sugar paste on top.
