Mac 'n' Cheese

Yay, this food blog is starting to look up! And I think it's quite distinct as to who post what, awesomeness!

mac and cheese

Sometime last week, Jac came over to my place and we cooked one of our all time favourite dish - Mac and Cheese! We love Mac and Cheese and the initial recipes we found all require a oven, which I unfortunately lack, so imagine our delight when we found one that just require the use of a stove!

Initially, when we cooked this, we allowed the macaroni to cook in the milk but to conserve time this time, I boiled the macaroni in water first before cooking it in the milk. It's much faster that way and requires less stirring, heh!

Macaroni and Cheese (serves 2)
    115g macaroni
    1 1/2 cup milk
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    3/4 teaspoon all-purpose flour
    1/8 cup butter
    3/4 cup shredded chedder cheese

1. Melt butter in saucepan over medium heat
2. Stir in flour and salt
3. Add milk and macaroni to saucepan, bring to boil
4. Reduce heat and cover
5. Simmer for 15mins or until pasta is tender, stirring occasionally
6. Add cheese, stir till cheese melts.
7. SERVE!

Muthu's Curry

Location: #B1-056, Suntec City Mall 3 Temasek Boulevard, S(038983)

Time: 12.01.2007, approximate 2000hr

Due to some unforeseen circumstances *cough cough*, K.K & Lil E. had their dinner-cravings denied. Nevertheless, their tummies were very hea
ted up and well-satisfied by from...TA-DAH!!! K.K gave a brief history:

"Muthu's has been around for decades, originating in Race Course Road where Indian cuisine generally involved eating off banana leaves with waiters coming around with laden tureens and sloshing simmered vegetables, spicy curries and fruity chutneys on your leaf.

That has since changed at Muthu's, which recently underwent a major makeover in its bid to go upmarket. Its main outlet in Race Course Road went through a $1 million revamp, while its new Suntec outlet cost $700,000 to do up, complete with hand blown glass beads fashioned into curtains, and unique wall features imported from India......"

*Lil E. was nodding away.*

Luckily the food were served just in time.

"Eat healthily. More vegetables please."
"Erm..masala sth, cabbages and carrots."


one of K.K's favourite dish - da MUTTON curry


Last but not least, the VERY FAMOUS fish-head curry!!!
Alright, it's only 2-piece fish curry..cos' it's feeding only 2 tummies. Not gonna waste any good food, right or not?


"Slurp...ah...sedab!!!" *pat pat tummy* Oh yes, lime juice......

Wanna know more about Muthu's curry? Just step in, sit down...and then ORDER la!!!! =)

Christmas cookies

This post is seriously very overdued but I haven't exactly been very regular with my posts. )))): I still need awhile to get adjusted to posting on a blog regularly and I've been pretty lazy to bring my camera out these days. Haven't been eating anything very special though.

For Christmas last year, Brenda and I decided to do something very nice by baking a batch of cookies for our friends. Since our house doesn't have an oven (so bloody depressing eh?) we went over to our cousin, Jessica's place! And we were there the whole day making hundreds of cookies. By the end of the day, my hand smelled of the cookie and I think I ate too much cookie dough.

chocolate chocolate chip cookies!

This were one of the two flavours of cookies we made. Basically just oodles of chocolate with a sprinkle of icing before it was sent into the oven. The insides were moist and soft and it smelled damn good. We got the recipe for this here!

peanut butter and choc cookie!

This is a close up of the other flavour of cookies we baked. This was made up of mostly peanut butter followed by a good handful of chocolate chip. The peanut butter tasted great with the chocolate chip and the insides were moist as well. The entire kitchen smelled brilliant!

Oh god all this talk and photos of food is making me even hungrier than I already am!
