你平安夜做咩?

老爺來自一個大家族﹐我奶奶有十一個兄弟姊妹﹐每一個都有兒女。直至目前為止﹐我們一家有三十六人。

每年平安夜乃一家人齊集之日﹐大家將會浩浩蕩蕩地過節。今年我好幸運地抽到*唔駛煮飯籤。但係我又坐唔定﹐又唔習慣無野做 (阿老爺話我有自唔在攞苦嚟辛)﹔所以今年決定除了自製果jam外做多一分特別禮物。

Stocking ornament

魔星出奇地好有心機畫紙樣﹐小心翼翼地剪裁絨布﹐牛咁眼望住阿媽一針針地縫合。

(咪笑﹐我都知我手工唔太好﹔希望縫完十二隻之後手工會好D啦。)

註﹕唔駛煮飯籤係傳統﹐抽到短籤的人可免煮平安夜飯一年。

萬無一失蒸水蛋

有時諗唔到/唔夠時间做晚餐,蒸水蛋係我嘅救星。唔單只好食健康﹐仲好多變化添~

Ingredients:

  • 4 eggs
  • chicken powder(1 tsp)
  • salt (a dash)
  • soya sauce

Steps:

  1. Beat the egg in a measuring cup with salt and chicken powder.
  2. Read the measurement of the eggs,add 1.5 times of water in there.(eg.If there is 1 cup of eggs,you’ll need to add 1.5 cups of water.)Then mixed it thoroughly.
  3. It is important to have a container/deep dish pan in the steamer as you boil the water.When the water is boiling,pour the egg mixture into the pan/container.Steam for 2 mins,then turn off the stove and let it sit for 20 mins.(remember not to open the lid/cover during the sitting time)

There,you got a plate of nice and smooth steam egg.Sprinkle green onions and a bit of soya sauce on top~

 

Fusion curry recipe

Being the chef at home,it is my job to serve healthy and tasty food.My boys(my hubby like to consider himself younger than what he is,lol) are not too picky,but they do like to see new dishes on the table all the time.And usually I don’t have too much time to spend on making dinner after I’m done playing with my son;so this is a tasty dish that you can make in 30 mins.

Butter chicken(an Indian dish) has always been one of my favourite,so this is like butter chicken mixed with more of a curry taste.

Ingredients:

  • 1 chopped onion
  • a handful of cilantro,chopped
  • a can of tomato,big can,can be sliced/stew/whole
  • 3 pieces of chicken breast,diced (skin removed,the skin is fat!You can also replace the breast with legs/thighs)
  • 2-3 carrots
  • 2/3 cup of water

Herbs:

  • 2 tsp cumin
  • 2 tsp paprika
  • 2 tbsp turmeric
  • 3-4 tbsp chili powder (if you like it spicy put more in)
  • 1.5 tbsp garam masala
  • cinnamon (only a little dash is enough,or else it’ll too overwhelming)

*Before you start making your dish you should get the rice cooking first.

  1. Heat up a tablespoon of olive oil in a pan/pot,fry the onions until slightly brown.
  2. Add the can of tomatoes,along with the carrots and cilantro;fry and stir for about a min then add the diced chicken in.
  3. Now it is time to put all the herbs and water in the pot; mixed it in thoroughly.
  4. Cover and let it cook for about 20 mins on medium heat,stir occasionally.

Your delicious dinner is now ready to serve~

As you are cooking you can alter the taste by adjusting the amount of herbs you put in.If you can’t take your food too spicy or got a little one at home adding more carrots and or coconut milk(if use,DO NOT put water in) can reduce the heat but still give you the good taste.
