Ever since we got Jas a cook book for her birthday.. we had thoughts about getting together and cooking some stuff... so me jas and ah muay decided to have a 'cook-in' this weekend... and try to whip up something...
the theme this time round was singapore food... or rather indonesian or malaysian? watever... just home food... so i decided to make nasi lemak... inspiration from the bottle of nasi lemak chilli tat jas's maid made... make us all hope we have nasi lemak to go with it.... jas was going to make some dessert... which i can't rem the name now... supposedly it is some thai dessert tat has 2 layers... one sweet and one salty... and ah muay made onde onde...
so we went on a grocery spree... getting everything we want... and each cook at our own houses... haha... so much for cooking together... but no choice we have limited space and utensils at one place.. so we have to do our own cooking.. then gather at my place for the feast...
i made the nasi lemak nasi... sambal sotong... beef rendang... spicy dried shrimp stir-fry cabbage... fried ikan bilis.... cut cucumber... luncheon meat... sunny side ups.... end off with the desserts jas and ah muay made... plus CK's milk pearl tea... haha....
we had more than 10 pple turn up for this event... all had positive comments for this cook-in... which i was glad tat pple find the food to be good and requested that we do this on a more frequent basis... hmm... i should try making money out of it man! haha...
being here and deprived of home food really did force us to try making them ourselves... hopefully in the midst of trying... it did improve my cooking skills.. haha...
