Rendang hijau daging dan kacang panjang

rendang hidanganku di hari ini-hadiah buat suami tersayang

bahan-bahannya :

1/4 kg daging 

5 batang kacang panjang

semangkuk santan

kerisik

bunga lawang

kulit kayu manis

asam keping

nise (gula org kelantan) atau gula 

daun kunyit (hiris halus-jgn halus sgt kang jadik bunga rampai lak)

bahan kisar :

2 cili hijau

cili padi hijau ikut suka berapa nak

sedikit kunyit

seinci halia

seinci lengkuas

5 ulas bawang merah

serai

sedikit ketumbar

sedikit jintan manis

cara-caranya ialah :

tumis bahan kisar, kulit kayu manis, bunga lawang hingga garing

masukkan daging

gaul dan masak hingga sebati

masukkan sedikit air dan masak lagi hingga daging empuk

masukkan kacang panjang, santan dan kerisik

kacau hingga tangan lenguh hehehe.....

campak lak asam keping

pastuh kacau sampai ikut suka lah nak pekat mana kuahnya-kering ke atau sedikit berkuah

masukkan daun kunyit yang dihiris tu, kacau lagi dan lagi.. hehhe

perasakan dengan garam dan nise atau gula

tips : nak best lagi sangai (goreng tanpa minyak) dulu ketumbar dan jintan tuh. santan kalau boleh bahagi dua, pekat dan cair. masukkan yang cair dulu bila dah agak mendidih masukkan pula yang pekat. pastuh kalau daging tu nak diperap dulu separuh dengan bahan kisar pun boleh.. pepandai lah ye.. saya stok malas nyer.. hehe. semoga menjadik!!!

kadangkala kita tidak tahu tahap sabar kita

hmmm.... skrg ni aku rasa stressed dengan pelbagai masalah. mungkin itu yang mendorong aku menulis post nieh. kadangkala kita tidak tahu tahap sabar yang ada pada diri kita. sehinggalah kita mengalami pelbagai ujian dari Allah. rupa-rupanya sabar kita sudah mencapai tahap supernova, dan kita sentiasa ingat bahawa Allah tidak akan menguji hambanya jika Dia tahu hambanya tidak mampu mengatasi masalah yang dihadapi. kadangkala di waktu-waktu inilah iman kita mudah tercabar. kita mudah mempersoalkan apa yang terjadi. risau di hati takut itu akan menjadikan kita murtad kerana tidak percayakan Qada dan Qadar. Ya Allah, kau kuatkanlah hati hambamu. mungkin ini balasan dosa dosa yang kita lakukan. Allah sayangkan hambanya. ini kita akan sedar kadangkala kita ingatkan diri kita sudah jauh, rupa rupanya masih ada cahaya di sebalik segala yang terjadi ini. untuk melaluinya, kita akan rasa bende bende ini amatlah mustahil. tapi lama kelamaan percayalah, segalanya akan bertambah baik. namun kita kena melaluinya, bukan melarikan diri darinya.

really wonder more about lady gaga's fashion style?

yupp.. Her real name is Stefani Joanne Germanotta. She's insane. she's bold. she dares to be different. wayyyyyyy different than any other celebs infact. she's totally original. she challenges taboos, traditions and values. BUT, she's talented. she's modern. she might be a trend setter (just like gwen), except for the outrageous headgears. and her songs are awesome. ppl been whistling her bad romance, poker face and paparazzi evrywhere. like EVERYWHERE. and not to mention her videos and her crazy fashion ideas. ppl just watch lady gaga now. ever wonder who her stylish is..or was? hmmm

1. alexander McQueen - this is her favourite designer. the late British fashion icon was known for his crazy fashion senses. check out his website at http://www.alexandermcqueen.com/ . besides him, Marko Mitanovski, armani have also worked with her.
2. she sometimes design her own dresses (if you can call those dresses)
3. there are rumours that she might work with donatella versace in the near future. yupp. the one that designed the famous safety-pin dress for elizabeth hurley and Jlo's green dress.

here are some of pics of lady gaga in style.

kecewa dgn teater Laksamana Do Re Mi

semlm pegi tgk bangsawan seri resam Darul ehsan di Panggung Bandaraya. teater komedi bertajuk Laksamana Do Re Mi karya asal P Ramlee itu telah diberi nafas baru. pada tahun lepas kumpulan teater yang sama telah membawa naskah Semerah Padi, juga adaptasi dr tajuk filem terkenal Allahyarham P Ramlee. 

namun apa yang agak mengecewakan adalah :

1. jalan cerita yang agak membosankan . saya tak pernah rasa mengantuk semasa menonton teater tetapi kali ini, pada teater Matinee (jam 3 petang) saya terasa agak mengantuk. 

2. terlalu ramai watak ataupun karakter lelaki yang menyerupai perempuan. apakah tiada cara lain untuk menjadikan jalan cerita itu menarik dari mengetengahkan karakter lelaki berpakaian perempuan. 

3. persembahan yang menjelikkan. persembahan tarian tradisional yang kasar, dan persembahan tarian moden yang agak seksi. dr segi tarian yang ditonjolkn, penari2 terlampau banyak bergelek dan ada ketikanya gelek itu memualkan. malah saya ada membawa beberapa pelajar yang tutup muka sebab tidak mahu menonton tarian tersebut. oh ya, dan beberapa penari lelaki memang terlalu 'lembut' sampai budak saya kata 'lelaki dah macam perempuan. geli lah cikgu'. adoiiii malunya saya membawa mereka menonton cerita ini. lupakah mereka kanak-kanak akan ramai menonton teater komedi ini? 

namun, ada juga plus points untuk teater ini:

1. tahniah pada watak Do Re Mi kerana mereka bertiga memang betul-betul well.. hmm kelakar. tahniah pd Man Belon kerana kami tidak jemu-jemu melihat lagaknya dan bahasa badannya. tiada watak yang bertiga ini, maka teater tersebut sudah tentu sangat gagal di mata saya

2. ada ketikanya aksi-aksi di dalam cerita itu memang kelakar contohnya sewaktu buluh runcing diberi

3. effect yang hebat- dengan smoke machine, bantuan dr segi kostum, setting dan lain-lain. 

apa-apapun saya sangat berharap pelajar pelajar saya akan terus menonton teater.

penatnya br balik training tarian. just got back from my dance class. but surprisingly, i feel well.. hmm lighter. coz i could do 2 dance routines today! hahaha.... hmmm today i didn;t  eat much... just some rice with tomyam and fried chicken (couldn't resist the temptation...and well, no choice anyway at the school canteen). just a quarter of rice. and iced nescafe, and for lunch, iced tea with two small packets of peanuts. yup full till now. (5.15p.m) still not hungry. perhaps because i've been exercising. and yeah for dinner, i might just grab one apple and drink my anlene. MIGHT!  ...heheh nothing much to describe. i think i'm getting more comfy with the diet programme. perhaps because i am always cautious with whatever i eat. though i still eat carbs and well. some oily food, couldnt stay away totally just yet, i make sure i dont eat much and try to snack with fruits or just drink plain water if i am that hungry.

hmm.. today even if i dont feel like doing it, i have to work out. i ate nasi lemak which according to cekodok.com , contains : Carbs 232.8, Fat 117.9, Protein 38.8. yes! i'm definitely in big trouble. thanx to English in Camp. (i need to put the blame on somebody or something right?) so what am i supposed to do now that i know i have failed my diet prog for today? well, here's my plan :

1. at 5, i will go out and walk down and up the Bukit Permai hill. on my way up, i would definitely take some time watching the view of KL from the lookout point. i will post some pics later. yup.. i need to show u the evidence right? 
2. no lunch. i had to skip my lunch and surprisingly, am still full (now is 3.15 p.m)
3. dinner? what dinner?. my anlene again. i regard anlene somehow as my life saviour coz i find it pretty filling and plus the high calcium helps my body a lot too. 


okay... now i need to do some housechores as well.... and i'm watching youtube videos for simple exercises that i can do while being a couch potato... lalala

hmmm so my Biggest Loser programme has started. and today is my first day..  yay!! well... i'm planning to loose at least 2kilos this month. hopefully my diet plan works.i'm planning to take up dance classes again next year so i have to stick to my diet or else i will have problems bending my body and working out the dance routine. hmmmm i have not started exercising yet. planned to jog around my neighbourhood but it seems to rain almost everyday here in Ampang so i guess i have to change the exercising part to doing housechores instead. (it's not an excuse okay..it rained for a couple of minutes just now!!... but i DO want to jog... let see if i manage to do it tomorrow. some ppl suggested me to buy the work-out machines but i guess it's wayyyy to expensive. i wont spend 300-500 just for a machine that i am not sure if i would use it for a long time. knowing me, who is usually bersemangat only for a few days.. 


my aim this month : lose 2 kg and above
the calorie my body needs : 1865.4 (calculation - www.cekodok.com)


hmmm.....anyway, i had breakfast at 10 (not 7.30 as i normally did)... i would say it was 'brunch' anyway coz i didnt have lunch.. i had rice, with some paru and ayam kicap. dont want it to be too drastic for me. and i had iced nescafe to keep me awake... heheh i beli some jambu and coconut drink for my sort of 'tea'. for dinner, i might eat a slice of leftover pizza. i dont know how to count the calorie...can somebody help me with this??? the difference between before the prog and today?


last week : 
- breakfast at 7.30 (nasi lemak / fried rice with egg or chicken and some kueh)
- iced nescafe 
- lunch at 12.30 (rice, with chicken and vege and sambal and some kuah)                               
- some other drinks or snack in between meals
- dinner either fried rice again/bread/maggi


today         : 
- breakfast + lunch at 10 (rice with paru and chicken)
- iced nescafe
-some fruits and coconut drink
- a slice of leftover pizza


pls tell me there's a difference
