SHRAA berqurban apa saja ...

SHRAA = Selamat hari raya aidil adha pada sahabat alam maya, mohon maaf zahir dan batin *grin*

2-3 hari sebelum raya I tanya TB "kalau you ada choice, apa agaknya makanan raya you nak makan". Dah kawin berdekad2 baru teringat nak tanya soklan cepu-mas916 tu, har3. Berdebor2 juga nak tunggu jawapannya.. dari berdiri, dia duduk sambil pegang jari jemari mengira2, kekdahnya.

So pilihan hakikinya ialah botok2, kuih talam (atas putih bawah gula melaka) dan tapai sebab dia dah jemu dengan lauk2 raya. Sebenarnya dia jeles kat I yang tersangat 'pandai' mix n matchkan lauk2 raya sebab dia masih selesa makan the usual 3-in-1. Dia tak reti selang-selikan dengan sambal gor, serunding, samtum atau pun sayur lodeh.

Ekceli I pun dah penat makan benda yang sama but when Teh told me that she won't be serving the usual raya food, I was ecstatic. Soto Medan would be the main dish then (hasil garapan Teh with Rita Coolidge, her maid of honor).

Teh has somewhat prohibited us from doing any cooking so that literally left me with nothing to do (blink blink), so being a good sister that I am, I offered to bring some desserts. Have to upkeep my 'water face' intact, kekdahnya. Soon after solat subuh and without a second glance at my bantal busuk, I walked humbly towards the kitchen. Tssk.. eat your heart out Nigella, ekekekee..

Blubery muf!

Cochineal essence, perisa almond + canned pineapple

Yellow essence + canned longan

Everybody was there at Teh's house except the expected ones but as always that won't deter us from having a good time. What was being served there? Waduh2 .. desserts/food a plenty from various planets contributors. I was thinking of relishing the soto first but from where I was seated, I was closer to nasi empet n its peripherals, so terpaksalah I mamam yang tu dulu (gitulah kekdahnya dalam majlis harus bersopan, kan?)

Just before 6pm we went home 'equipped' with packets of tapau-ed food enough to satisfy another two main meals. That would mean genjatan pots n pans for me, I like!

On raya eve we had makan2 ala pot luck. I dah buntu tak tau nak bawak apa. Ndja suggested that I cook mee keju n 2 more options which I tolak bulat2 n lonjong2. Tetiba teringat why not I just bring murtabak? Yeay... selamat gua but still I have to show off a bit lah kaan?? haha.. riak punya orang so I baked that butter cake.

Bukanlah Somuffins namanya kalau tak menodai resipi maka apa mendenya yang I campur dalam kek itew?? Hehe ... nasib baik minah tupai baik hati tak habiskan semua pisang emas hari tu ...

Initially the cake risen so beautifully but it slowly memendakkan diri. I tekad bawak juga ke majlis tu .. bentat pun bentatlah kan?? But but but ... they seem to like the cake very much. I pun tak faham camana texture butter cake --> kek pisang bertukar jadi texture chilled cheese cake..
