Okonomiyaki
|
|
Okonomiyaki is a mixture between pancake and pizza. "Okonomi" means "as you like". This refers to the ingredients.
Ingredients:
* Dough
300 g flour
210 ml water
2 eggs
Cabbage
* Possible ingredients to put into/onto Okonomiyaki
Katsuobushi*:- Dried, shaved benito (katsuo
Aonori*: Green, dried seaweed.
Leek or green onion
Beef: thinly sliced or ground
Chicken: breast filets
Octopus
Squid*
Prawn
Tuna
Mushrooms
and much more...
# Sauces
* Brown okonomiyaki sauce* if you can't find this, just use worchestershire steak sauce
* Mayonnaise
Method:
1) Cut four large, green cabbage leaves without the hard, white core in thin strings (ca. 4 mm).
2) Mix the water, flour, eggs and the cabbage strings together.
3) You may now add more ingredients to the dough: e.g. seafood, cut in little pieces, ground meat, cut mushrooms, etc.
Fry the dough like a pancake in a small frying pan
.
4) Before turning the okonomiyaki over, and while the dough is still quite soft, you may put other ingredients on top of the dough.
5) Turn the okonomiyaki.
6) When fried well, serve the okonomiyaki with katsuobushi, aonori, mayonnaise and okonomiyaki sauce.
This is one of my son's favorite, in fact he's love japanese food, so unlike his mummy.

merlion at Spore River

Presenting the most favorite statue to be photograph by the tourists and local, the vomiting merlion!
The Merlion was first designed as an emblem for the Singapore Tourism Board (STB) in 1964 – the lion head with a fish body resting on a crest of waves quickly became Singapore’s icon to the rest of the world.
Originally located at the Merlion Park by the Esplanade Bridge, the Merlion and the Cub became a popular tourist attraction for visitors. The installation ceremony took place on 15 September 1972, officiated by the then Prime Minister of Singapore, Mr Lee Kuan Yew.
Today, the Merlion has found a new home just 120 metres away from its original location, adjacent to one Fullerton and Fullerton Hotel.
Measuring 8.6 metres high and weighing 70 tonnes, the Merlion statue was built from cement fondue by the late Singapore craftsman, Mr Lim Nang Seng. A second and smaller Merlion statue, measuring two metres high and weighing three tones, was also built by Mr Lim. The body was made of cement fondue, the skin from porcelain plates and eyes from small red teacups.
Designed by Mr Fraser Brunner, a curator of the Van Kleef Aquarium, the lion head represents the lion spotted by Prince Sang Nila Utama when he re-discovered Singapura in 11 AD, as recorded in the "Malay Annals". The fish tail of the Merlion symbolises the ancient city of Temasek (meaning “sea” in Javanese) by which Singapore was known before the Prince named it “Singapura” (meaning “lion” (singa) “city” (pura) in Sanskrit), and represents Singapore’s humble beginnings as a fishing village.

Full moon
|
 |
|
look up
|
|
 |
|
the closeup
|
|

No werewolf were out last night, not even the vampires or the pontianaks, or perhaps they were there just that I didn't see them? they might even be sitting next to me, watching me taking photos of the moon  ...
.yang hantu tu tak nampak lah tapi manusia yang berkelakuan macam hantu tu ada lah yang banyak bersepah merata merata...
I didn't use any telephoto lens , just relying on the 12Xoptical zoom and 48X digital zoom of my Canon S5 IS......I know a friend of mind tried using just the compact digital camera with much less optical and digital function can still take good shot of the moon, by using it with the telescope she had on her balcony!

For a change.......
|
|
Tekak ni nak makan something western, tapi malas nak masak jadi ajak lah hubby pergi ke food court yang berdekatan di Bishan. Banyak kedai makan atau restaurant dah ada MUIS halal certificate, jadi tak susah nak cari makanan western atau pun makanan cina di sini sekarang. Tapi kalau dah lidah melayu tu mana boleh lari dari cili kan? jadi cili sos wajip ada!!

The most favorite.....
|
|
During the recent Chinese New Year, I went to a flower festival in Sentosa Island. Lots of flowers on displayed there but what made me crazily clicking non stop were the roses on dislay! One breed that caught my eyes were the combination of red and white ,so outstanding and magestic-looking!
I definately don't have green thumb or fingers to grow these at home, but I'm happy knowing that I managed to captured them in the most memorable way, in photo! that's going to last forever and ever...

uninvited guest
|
|
What do you do when you see a beautiful big butterfly in the neighbourhood but didn't have the camera with you? do what I did.....took the butterfly home with me to be my model!!
It co-operated well , didn't even move when I came closer to take macro shot, and stayed for hours in my kitchen before it finally flew off in the middle of the night.
