Salam readers..

This blog is my personal collection of recipes.. I learnt cooking when i was about 13 or 14 yrs old from my lovely mummy.. I started with writing the recipes in a school notebook yg kotak2 utk maths tu.. I dont even remember where I put that book dah hehe.. Then I translated (eng > bm), typed, printed and filed them for easy reference for our house helpers.. This file has been in my mummy's kitchen for a longgggg time..

Now that I'm married, I've learnt some new recipes obtained from the internet, whc I tweaked to suit our tastebuds.. So kira internet recipes tu dah modified to our own liking la.. And of course I'm also learning new recipes from my MIL too.. Apart from my mum, my MIL and the Internet, I will also feature recipes sent by my friends here.. ^_^

Most of the recipes in this blog are very simple to cook, very suitable for us women who doesnt really have the luxury of time to cook an elaborated meal.. Sekali sekala ok la kan..

I hope you enjoy this blog as much as I enjoy sharing the recipes with you.. Happy trying! Happy cooking!

::creamy lem0n chicken::

salam & hey y'all..

some of you might know that ajoy and i are watching our diets now.. so lately ni selalu mkn grilled chicken.. but this recipe, mmg leceh ckit.. ckp awal2 ni.. coz it involves a lot of processes.. but, yg bestnya, no oil is involved in this recipe.. yeayyy!! hehe.. so sape yg rajin bole la try k.. ;)


{bahan2}

A - perap
chicken breast strips (i used 4)
salt
black pepper
1 and 1/2 lemon (juice & skin)
ginger - chop/slice (d size of a thumb hehe)

B- other bahan2
campbell chicken soup (1 small tin/305g)
cayenne pepper
potato (1 big one, potong 8)
brocolli
carrot
roasted garlic (optional)

{cara2}

1) first of all, the night before tu, marinade/perap the chicken, together with the lemon skins.. kalau tak nk overnite, i think ard 4 hrs pun ok kut.. hahaha lama kan.. 

2) before we cook the chicken, make sure u boil the potatoes and carrots until it is half cooked.. 3quarter cooked pun bole.. 

3) then, take the chicken out of the fridge and arrange them in a baking dish.. pour all the bahan2 perap tu in the baking dish as well..

4) arrange the boiled potatoes in the baking dish.. make sure semua bhn2 (potatoes & chicken) are about the same level. this is to ensure yr potatoes wont overcook..

5) then pour the chicken soup on top of the chicken and potatoes.. make sure they are covered.. add about half cup of water into the dish.. 

6) dash some salt, black pepper and cayenne pepper to taste.. cover the baking dish with foil and dont forget to poke lots of holes on the foil.. 

7) bake them in oven (i used microwave oven) for 30mins..

8) then, ensure the potatoes and chicken are cooked. if they're not, masuk la balik dlm oven k.. if they are, then this next step is optional.. nk buat bole, tak nak pun bole.. hehe.. i did this coz ajoy suka ayam tu mcm kering2 ckit.. 

9) so i grilled the chicken and potatoes tu pulak for another 20mins.. asingkan the chicken & potatoes from the baking dish yg ada soup tu, and put them on yr grilling rack.. grill for 10mins on each side of the chicken..

10) utk sauce pulak, while the chicken is grilling, pour the remaining sauce frm the baking dish in another pan and then heat yr periuk.. add some water from time to time and heat them until the sauce reach the consistency u want for the sauce.. this way, we are not wasting on the sauce we used to cook the chicken.. :)

11) when the chicken is done, take them out from the microwave and let them cool down a lil.. then steam yr brocolli & carrots.. while ure doing that, bole la start susun the chicken n potatoes cantek2 on yr plates hehe..

12) the sauce should be ready by now.. remove them from the heat and transfer them into a sauce bowl or watever u wanna use la k..

13) lps da susun chicken, potatoes, carrots and brocolli, bole la drizzle the sauce on the chicken and potatoes.. siap utk dimkn.. bon apetit and happy cooking!
