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!

~ spaghetti aglio olio with mushrooms ~

a very simple pasta.. actually i have button mushrooms lebih from my spaghetti sauce i cooked last few days.. pastu fikir2 nk buat apa dgn extra mushrooms ni.. so i figured y not i juz stir fry em and have it with spaghetti..

i used angle hair spaghetti coz they cook very fast n they're not too rich gak.. tats y spaghetti nmpk kurus ya.. hihihi.. recipe ni tuk sorang je tau coz i was experimenting jer.. ajoy wanted to eat something else.. ok here's d recipe:


1 portion of spaghetti - boil first
2 cloves of garlic - chopped
1 long cili padi - chopped
2 button mushrooms (canned) - sliced
1 white button mushrooms (fresh) - sliced
chicken cube/stock (ckit jer)
black pepper
salt (if necessary)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
in a heated pan, stir fry the garlic and cili padi.. when it turns slightly brown, put in the chicken cube (i use a small portion jer, secukup rasa) and stir fry lg. pastu put in the mushrooms and dash some black peppers in.. when the garlic da turn almost brown, put in the spaghetti, gaul and done! hihi..

original recipe is to use chili flakes or dried chilies.. tp i dont hv those, so i used chili padi jer, sedap jerrrr... hehe.. and we can always add in prawns, mussels, capsicum and anything we want.. and if we have olive oil, better to substitute olive oil with cooking oil.. happy trying! :)

p/s: i checked recipes from the internet, most of them will sprinkle some parsley flakes & dash some oregano too.. i wanted to do td tp terlupa.. so, put tat in mind when u're preparing yr olio k.. :)
