Special Chic with Special Sauce




To me, having the privileged to sit on the same table together with your loved ones, is the most blessed thing in life. Giving thanks for the food laid on the table meaning being grateful to our Great God for his abundant blessings...

So today, when I was going thru a recipe book, I found this recipe but it says it's for grilled fish, but I decided to change it to something with gravy.

Ingredients:

For gravy:
5 shallots
4 pips garlic
1/2 inch turmeric
1 tbsp chilli boh
1 red chilli

For sauce:
1/2 pack very thick santan
1 tbsp sugar
salt

The method:
Pan fry chicken coated with cornflour. Blend the gravy ingredients. Heat oil in wok and saute blended gravy ingredients till pecah minyak. Then pour in sauce ingredients, simmer till you can see santan is separated from oil. Meaning there's a layer of oil on top. Now, add in chicken. Simmer for a while...emmm...emmm....yum! yum!

Easy Peasy Dinner - Black Pepper Lamb Chop



this is such an easy to make dinner dish... Time was not on my side today, as son's Macaroni Cheese was burnt due to my carelessness... so I bertungkus lumus cook the Maca Cheese again... phew! Thank God son ate some biscuits and he was not too hungry...

so what could i do at that point of time, i took out the lamb and defrost it. Then pour wine on it and let it soak for 1/2 hr. Here's the ingredients.

Ingredients:
Lamb Shoulder
1 Onion

To marinate:
Black pepper sauce
Black pepper powder
a little oil
sugar
salt
a dash of light soy sauce
a dash of dark soy sauce

Method:
Marinade lamb with all the marinate items, leave aside for 1 hr, if marinade overnight, it would taste best. Then heat up some oil and butter and fry lamb. When lamb is almost cooked, put lamb into the oven. This is the time where you saute the onions, red pepper, yellow pepper, green pepper and then pour the marinated sauce into it... and it's done!!!!

Easy right?!!!!
