Fried mee on a budget

This is by far the simplest Mi Hun Goreng recipe I've ever came across. Got it off a friend.

You just need

1/2 a packet of chintan noodles (it comes in 6 servings so I used 3 servings for this recipe)
3 sausages cubed
1 tablespoon of sesame oil
1 tablespoon of cooking oil
3 cloves of garlic crushed
Soya sauce (I just doused soya sauce all over the Chintan wide noodles after I boiled and drained it so but if you want a decent measurement you should probably need I reckon around 4-5 tablespoons LOL)
1 tablespoon of chili powder (optional)

1. Bring water to boil and then put in the noodles and when partially soft drain and wash with cold water to stop the cooking process and drain that. :P

2. Large pan, place cooking oil then fry the cubed sausages and then mix in the garlic and and noodles.

3. Pour in the sesame oil and powder, stir and it's done!

Bon appetite!

Cheap and yummy! :)

Pasta+Egg+Anchovies+Cili?

I bought some canned anchovies in oil and was feeling a bit adventurous. It's not original but I would say innovative :) hence the reason why I was stuck with the name.

I boiled the pasta, then mixed in half a can of the anchovies, mixed in 2 eggs, poured in some olive oil, and then chopped cili. Voile. It's done! lol

I usually don't measure so I probably poured in like 2 cups of shell pasta.

Phemonemal I tell you. Oh yea. Salt to taste.

It can do without the eggs also but I wanted something that was filling. Since this is the Ramadhan month and all. hehe.

note to self. I need to start uploading pictures on dis food blog of mine...sighs lol

Fresh produce.

Well this is obliviously not a post on recipes but rather where we can get fresh produce...W0o0o0ot.


Kudos to the blogger who owns The Malaysian Life. If you click on the link he/she has a comprehensive list of Pasar Malams (night market).

In all my years of existence in KL I have never been to one. But I'm dying to go. I think that market's are a big adventure and you can get anything and everything under one roof without the sky high prices of supermarkets(Well I still love my supermarkets regardless..LOL) . Plus it boasts many a different characters that can inspire me to write on my blog. And to boot, some times you can also bargain for the prices.

I remember the time when I was last in KK (Kota Kinabalu, my hometown). We went on a chili hunting expedition. Pedassssssssssssssssssssss........

It was fun anyways. RM 30 ringgit worth of cili to be exact. Made 6 bottles of it :)

Well I'll fill you guys in with more of my pasar malam escapades once I go to one. hehe...

Till then...

The magic of lebanese bread......Mmmmm

So my gal pal Pam bought some lebanese bread yesterday.

It was our infamous attempt on weight loss yet again...W0o0o0ot lol

She thought it would be nice to have with some sliced chicken.

This is the concoction that I came up with.


SALAD MIX

A handful of salad lettuce (sliced finely) and one big tomato chopped in cubes.
I threw in some parsley too (chopped as well)
Pour a table spoon of olive oil
Dash of black pepper

SLICED CHICKEN

Fried. It had some taste to it so we didn't bother adding in salt or whatever.

GARLIC SAUCE

A dollop of mayo and cream with a bit of garlic mix (I have a garlic+water+salt mix ready in the fridge for when I need garlic in a dish)

CHEESE

Given that we are cheese eaters, we had some variety of sliced cheese and Kiri (cream cheese)


We put everything in the lebanese bread and rolled it up and VOILE!

HEAVEN~

Not quite diet food but you can replace the sliced cheese with your garden variety low fat cottage cheese.

Have fun tummies!
