Iftar - 23rd day of Ramadhan

Babah decided to hold Iftar at his own nest and mama agreed so we invited few family friends who stayed within the vicinity. Mama cooked sup tulang and ekor, ikan bawal hitam masak sweet sour and mixed vege. Also mama baked talam ubi... yummy and babah favourite kueh ketayap. The mommies came with variety of delicacies like sambal belacan, pink onde-onde, meehoon goreng, sardines rolls, ikan pekasam, ikan masak kicap etc etc.etc. And actually again tak sempat nak snap photos. Again Aalhamdulillah plenty of food to be shared and plenty of children too to tolong menghabiskan. Not to worry, InsyaAllah habis. We are the type yang enjoy food so taklah membazir.

Rendang Tok For Sale

yang ini gambar ori... rendang tok stok dalam simpanan kami

bukan sekadar hiasan

Wah Rendang Tok For Sale macam nak jual kete atau nak jual Umah jer. Dah masing-masing sibuk promo hasil jualan, kami pun excited jugak. Babah pun dah siap pergi pasar dengan Pok Nik towkey Nikeiyda stall, belikan mama daging n kelapa nak buat rendang tok. Resipi diturunkan oleh ibu si pencari rezeki dalam umah ni. Mak mentuo saya orang Linggi, mintak laluan ye, Cikgu Bedah promo sikit tapi yang expert memasak dia ngan adik dia kami panggil Ateh. Memang kaw-kaw. Kalau pekena dgn parata atau murtabak. kalau ada pulut kukus lagi mengancam. Itu tak kena dgn nasi lemak. Alahai mesra alam rendang tok ni.

Nak masak rendang tok ni kena sabar sebab lama nak menunggu dan menjaganya. Takleh hangus dan yang penting kena banyak pati santan. Tu yang akan melemakkan dan lama tunggu tu akan jadikkan rendang nye gelap. Bukan hangus tau.

Tapi kat Dubai ni santan mahal, walaubagaimanapun kami tetap akan menjaga kualiti jualan kami.

Apa-apapun, InsyaAllah nantikan hasil

A friend texted us this note. Kind of cute and sweet.

Sempena Ramadhan Al Mubarak Ini,

sentiasalah setting niat,

upgrade Ima'an,

download sabar,

upload usaha,

delete dosa,

update du'a,

dan

top up ilmu agar boleh redeem pahala.

Aha, dah masuk 9th Ramadhan, almost one third of the holy month. Walaupun dah mintak maaf, to date kita mohon maaf lagi sekalilah so blh delete dosa buat amal banyak-banyak dapat redeem pahala. Amin...? Yang penting mintak Ampun pada Allah, yang sesama manusia 0-0 ye. Alhamdulillah.

Iftar of the day

Yesterday we went to Spain so today feel like going to Italy pulak just to get us some pizzas. Just don't feel like eating rice. and also don' feel like cookingJemu dah pulak so tukar selera. Babah ordered pizza n subway garlic breads. Tapi tak dan tangkap gambo garlic breads; depa dah abiskan sapa lagi kalau tak kak long Iman n kak ngan Ilham. Masa bukak posa ni slalunye huruhara sikit with all the little ones sibuk makan macam depa berposa. So simple2 jer iftar kami ari ni Alhamdulillah.

Tapi lepas Iftar tadi... babahnya kata, kalau dapat nasi best yek! Pulakkk. Memang tekak melayu nak pekena nasik gak. ok so tomorrow kita makan nasik balik ye. tapi nak dimsum gak as appetizer... boleh?

Iftar - 8th day of Ramadhan

Today we went to Spain, to collect our food for Iftar. Just another day Mamanyer rasa takmo masak. Nak main tunjuk-tunjuk and bungkus-bungkus. So, we ordered nasi kerabu garnished with solok lada, ikan goreng tepung, serunding ikan and super duper hot sambal lada. Extra request for extra moneylah of course. The towkey, Cik Mas; lives in a far far away land in International City ( in Spain Cluster). Sounds jauhkan, actually it was just 15 minutes away drive from our nest. Then on the way back, baba teringin ayam golek which he saw everyday on his way back from the mosque. Mau tak terliur tgk the chickens dok beratoq elok, berpusing-pusing on the skewer and nicely brown grilled masa posa-posa ni. So ordered 1 whole bird, memang tempting, nampak juicy and the rill mesti tender as they used chicken muda. Then we headed back to home for mama has to dadar tepung nak buat kueh ketayap pulak. Tak jemu-jemu baba makan kueh ketayap ni. Then ada teman hantar pisang goreng to add to our iftar menu. Penuh gak meja for Iftar today, Alhamdulillah.

Huh! meh kita tengok kak ngah Ilham yang tak posa ni makan macam lapar sangat. Beria-ia dia makan sampai siap gigit terus chicken tu. Ni nak bagi nenek-nenek depa kat Malaysia tengok. To Mak Bedah and Mak Leha (depa panggil nenek =mak), Selamat Ramadhan Al Mubarak, mintak maaf banyak-banyak. Tu atuk Khamis and Tok Bah Perlis, halalkan duit belikan Ieam jajan dan pasu2 yang Ieam pecahkan. I miss u ols. Nak Duit Raya!! (kalau nak tahu Ilham is the centre of attraction sebab banyak perangai, cheeky Ilham as well as cousin Adam).

Dak Debot Dina ni, time kami set for Iftar, anak dara mungil ni buat kerja under the table counter, panjang muncung tu, abis plastik sapra dia main. Kak long Iman kenyang tengok tv as usual. This time she didn't make it again as it was quite tiring for her turun naik tangga to classes as well as to her computer lab. Paling kesian, everytime fetching her out from the bus, dia terlentuk tertidur kepenatan. Pity this girl, panas2 gini, Mudah2an ilmu yang dia dapat berkat. Amin.

Iftar 7th day of Ramadhan

.

Yesterday we had a simple dish for Iftar. Memang simple just mee goreng udang and rice with fish curry (lauk semalam... ingat mak kata jangan membazir!) with fried breaded chicken nuggets and chicken fingers. Then tambah lauk buat telur goreng kicap. Again babah nak kueh ketayap, dahlah request pukul 5.45... mmm dah suntuk ni, tapi tak sampai atilah pulak. So mama took daun pandan, add a little bit of santan and flour and an egg. Beat them and siap batter dia, dadar and gulung. Siap! . Alhamdulillah.

Iftar - 6th day of Ramadhan

Saturday... thinking hard what to cook for Iftar? The scorching hot summer really made everyone feels lethargic and mind works at a very low pace. Iskh! kalau kat Rumah mak Sunway ni mesti dah gi Bazaar Ramadhan kat Kg. Lindugan. Ayaq tebu satu jug, ayaq nyioq satu jug, murtabak daging Pakcik Ghani confirm 6 keping (cucu-cucu mak ramai), kueh dangai (buat dr tepung pulut sprinkled with gula n kelapa parut dan caramel gula hangus ... sure sedap.



Finally teringat ada ikan kembung in the fridge, "'if grilled marinated with rempah bercili and daun kunyit mesti sedap yek'". So prepared everything n kept in fridge. Then adik2 called kata nak datang bukak posa together. Mmmm, kecit tapak tangan, piazza uptown Mirdiff kami tadahkan. Again dapat berkumpul masak-masak, makan-makan and santai-santai lagi. So tambah lauk buat kari ikan siakap merah (red snapper), mixed vegetables , mommynye goreng ayam and babah Bamin teringin makan choco vermicelli Donut dan Aidit pi beli ayaq nyioq dlm tin kat Spinneys. Jadikla! Alhamdulillah. Kalau tak kami dok ngadap makan berdua sahaja ditemani anak2 yang tak berposa.

tulah, hasilnyer Ikan kembung grill Berempah, siap ada air asam

Babah Bamin baca du'a... Amin

start amik kurma... Bismillahirrahman nirrahim....

dan makan

Sembang2, still on the bazaar Ramadhan mood. Bab makan-makan and jual-jual ni memang seronok, So ada gak terasa nak tumpang berniaga tapi takdelah nak bukak stall coz as said before takut asyik kena kejor kak ngah Ilham nak terjun masuk swimming pool kat rumah Tuan Syed. Adik2... mintak tumpang tolong jualkan yek. Alo towkey rendang daging Kuala Semantan kita saing niaga ngan rendang tok Uptown Mirdif ok? Sajaasronok! Nak kena pikiaq gak ni, menu tumpang kat kedai PP pulak. Thinking hard!!!!

Malamnyer kami jalan2 kat piazza UT Mirdiff. It was quite humid but sajer tengok telatah adik2 yang mak-bapak depa jauh di Malaysia dengan anak2 sedara depa. (gambar update later)
