What's cooking tonight? Have not been taking picture of last few meals because I've been busy and just want to finish fast. Today is also another something fast to cook. Just about all the ingredients used. What's not in the picture -> fried sliced Pomfret seasoned with salt and tumeric powder. #lizaohlala #lizzyspantry #blog #twitter #taucu #preservedsoybeans #coconutmilk

Kufta Tagine (stove top without tagine pot) First try. Smell good, taste not bad next time I will add more grounded spices. Still need fine tuning. Ps : I hate it when the yolk breaks #lizaohlala #lizzyspantry #blog #twitter #kuftatagine #herbs #spices #mincedmeat #beef #mincedbeef #tomatoes

Today ELB Spicy Minced Meat and Tofu soup. Woke up late. In a rush so I just grabbed a small pack or frozen sambal minced beef paste I prepared for last week fried mee Hoon and a packet of tofu and 1 potato. Added left over vegetables fr yesterday's chicken rice and Glass Noodles. Total time taken 45mins because I forgot to turn in on initially. 😱😱😱 #electriclunchbox #elb #lizzyspantry #lizaohlala #spicysoup #eggtofu #glassnoodles #blog #twitter #workingatstarhub

First time bringing ELB to work. I used this at home when I'm cooking for myself. For work. I usually cooked my packed lunch the night before. I saw some of my colleagues brought their ELB.. Seems like a good idea so I thought I give it a try too. #elb #electriclunchbox #lizaohlala #lizzyspantry #blog #twitter

Pisang Goreng (Banana Fritters) #lizaohlala #lizzyspantry #blog #twitter #lizaohlalapisanggoreng #banana #fritters #asiansnacks

Mr bought 2 bunch of Pisang Raja (direct translation King of Banana) which is one of the best variety for Banana Fritters. Great with hot tea on wet Sunday morning like today. 😊 Just about all ingredients used for Pisang Goreng or Banana Fritters. Not in picture - salt No exact measurement. But for that much of banana I used half rice flour, 1/4 teaspoon of 'Kapur', maybe around 4 tablespoon thick coconut milk diluted with enough water and mix into batter, some food colouring and vanilla, salt Optional Vanilla Food colouring Sugar if you prefer sweet batter. I didnt add #bananafritters #pisanggoreng #twitter #blog #lizaohlala #lizzyspantry #pisang #banana #breakfast

Nasi Minyak, Ayam Masak Merah, Dalcha Rusuk Kambing, Salad Tairu, Paceri Nenas. Cooking (minus the cleaning part) makes me happy. By the time I finished cooking I'm too lazy to fry the papadum hahah This is an artery clogging meal so after dinner and clean up must go Poke Hunting. 😛😛😛 #nasiminyak #pacerinenas #ayammerah #dalcha #tairu #basmati #chicken #dhal #yogurt #pineapple #lizaohlala #lizzyspantry #blog #twitter

Simple Paceri Nenas. Just about all ingredients I used. I'm not sure what is it called in English but I think It's a kind of chutney. This goes well with Nasi Briyani, Nasi Minyak and the likes. I like it on it's own too. #pineapple #nenas #pacerinenas #lizaohlala #lizzyspantry #blog #twitter

Ayam Brand Sardines to the rescue for late night cooking. Truly fast food perfect for 11pm when it's too late for all the blending and pounding. Having this with brownrice tonight. I love it with lots of onions. I added asam keping instead of tamarind juice. #lizaohlala #lizzyspantry #blog #twitter #sardines #sardinesintomatosauce #ayambrandsg #ayambrandsardines #ayambrand #latenightcooking #homefastfood

Baguette and Chicken Curry for dinner. I set the sponge for half day or so instead of overnight. Still happy with the result. Tummy full. We are now off for some Pokexercise #lizaohlala #lizzyspantry #blog #twitter #baguette #chickencurry #curry #bread #shotwithiphone6splus

Play Dough Part 1 - Baguette. Crusty and chewy, The kind that I love. Freshly baked bread always smells so inviting what more when the source is your own kitchen. Can't wait to slice this. I did not use overnight sponge today so i'm eager to know how this turns out. I cooked chicken curry for dinner so will be having together with this. #lizaohlala #lizzyspantry #baguette #yeast #bread #crustybread #blog #twitter

Papadum and Pisang Goreng (Banana Fritters) Post Pokemon hunt snacks hahah. Mr was so happy he got Pisang Raja from Marsiling Market earlier. It's not easy to get our hands on Pisang Raja at this part of Sg, so If it's available, grab it 😃 I fried Papadum as well because I think it goes well with Rasam. I used instant Adabi premix for the banana fritters. #lizaohlala #lizzyspantry #blog #twitter #pokemonfever #pisanggoreng #bananafritters #banana #pisang #papadum

Pokemon Fever I cannot believe that I am here at my house playground at close to midnight. I usually will stay away from this place after sundown but there's a Poke Gym at foot of the hill and Poke Stop at Playground plus there are quite a number of poke trainers here so I'm not scared hahaha #pokemongo #lizaohlala #blog #twitter #pokemonfever

Rasam Mr's request. No matter how many times I cook this, I can never take good picture of this tomato, tamarind based soup. We had this with rice and tumeric fried chicken but it's equally tasty just on it's own especially when you are down with flu. Fast to cook, simple and satisfying meal. #lizaohlala #lizzyspantry #blog #twitter #asafoetida #tamarind #tomato #corriander #spices #rasam

Chicken Mandhi Rice @ Deli Moroccan. This is by far the nicest Mandhi Rice I can find now. This come second after the now closed Samar restaurant. Be sure to ask for yogurt sauce as well cos they usually don't serve it. After a big plate of rice and half chicken, wash it down with Moroccan Mint tea.

Jemput2 Bawang or Onion Fritters is pretty quick snack to prep and cook. We had this for breakfast this morning. In a rush and I didn't take nice picture of the after fried fritters. I prefer fritters to have more onions and a bit chewy so for about 2 cups of flour, i'll need about 2 or 4 big onions sliced thinly. I also add spring onions for texture and taste and the cili padi for some heat because we enjoy eating the fritters without any sauce. My friend Asmah, previously taught me to add egg to the batter. I tried and have never looked back :-). Thank You babe :-) #lizaohlala #lizzyspantry #jemput2bawang #springonion #onion #cilipadi #birdseyechilli #fritters #onionfritters #blog #twitter #shotwithiphone6splus

Ondeh Ondeh for breakfast. I have a packet of grated coconut which has been sitting in the freezer for awhile. I used pandan paste hence the neon green colour. When making a small batch and using bottled pandan paste, Ondeh Ondeh does not take long. Actually I don't have exact recipe but you can google for Ondeh2. More or less the same. Just that some added tapioca flour some don't. For me, sometimes I add, sometimes I don't. For those not familiar ondeh2 is made with pandan infused dough made with glutinous rice flour, filled with palm sugar, cooked in low rolling boiling water, drain it and roll it with steamed desiccated grated coconut #lizzyspantry #lizaohlala #ondehondeh #gulamelaka #glutinousriceflour #palmsugar #dessicatedcoconut #blog #twitter #shotwithiphone6splus

Roasted Chicken Rice I only had a whole chicken. For quick chicken rice, I usually deep fried chicken pieces. It is not a good idea to chop a whole uncooked chicken on my small kitchen counter at this hour so I roasted the chicken instead. The sauce I drizzled on the chicken is the same sauce used to marinate the chicken. The sauce / marinade consisted of a bit of oil, blended ginger, garlic, shallots, sugar, honey, paprika, a bit of the chicken stock, salt, oyster sauce, dark soy sauce, light soy sauce.. (Sesame oil if you can) I don't have exact measure. It's all up to your preference really. Use a small portion for marination and for basting while roasting and simmer the rest till thicken for sauce. #lizaohlala #lizzyspantry #chickenrice #roastedchickenrice #roastedchicken #chicken #chickenlegs #blog #twitter #shotwithiphone6plus

Fish Soup. Mr bought Red Snapper from Marsiling Wet Market yesterday. He got it from another fishmonger as the usual guy did not sell red snapper yesterday. This new guy did a hurried job. He didn't scale the fish well despite Mr's repeated reminder. I spent quite sometime trying to remove the remaining scales especially around head area and I hate doing scaling because I don't like dealing with all the flying fish scales. Today, I up the taste a notch by adding sliced cili padi when the soup was simmering. Perfect just on it's own with condiments or with rice as sides. Alhamdulilah. Satisfying dinner indeed. #fishsoup #spicyfishsoup #shotwithiphone6splus #lizaohlala #lizzyspantry #blog #twitter #fish #redsnapper #rice
