You cook?

I got a link from one of my online friends yesterday and did a quiz in the link. The quiz result told that I can be a good chef. yeah! yay

I can cook but not as good as a professional chef. Sometimes when Sunday came and I went to the market and found that I didn't know what to buy and what to cook, especially because I'm a Vegetarian, means I don't eat meat, fish, and seafoods.

My auntie and uncle came back from Taiwan yesterday and I tried to prepared dinner for them. There were eggs, leftover Rendang, leftover chilly sour chicken, cabbage and carrotes.

Here I searched for the image in Google for better image:

- This is Rendang which cooked by my auntie before went to Taiwan (Indonesian food which so famous, even until abroad)

I have little time to prepared so I just cooked simple foods:

- Simple clear eggs soup with chives I cooked, usually cooked by Chinese Indonesian. (but not this thick)

- Chilly sour chicken with lime's leave (this was cooked by my auntie before she went to Taiwan).

I love to cook, and in fact i love cooking Asian food in particular. I have discovered a lot of Asian foods through travelling, and I try to find authentic recipes and ingredients to reproduce them at home. European style Asian food is not the same, so I buy as many ingredients as possible from the local Asian supermarket. Recently I made an Asian buffet for friends, the menu was:-

Tum Yum soup
Chicken & pork satay
Thai green curry
Crispy aromatic duck in pancakes
Green tea ice cream
Lassi

I didn't buy anything ready prepared, even the curry paste I made myself from simple ingredients. It was fantastic!!! Even if I do say so myself!! The duck in particular was awesome!!! grin

I also enjoy European style cooking, I regularly go through my recipe books and try new dishes, pasta/chorizo cheesy bake, sausage casserole, chili con carne, paella are a few of my regular dinners, but I love experimenting and trying new dishes I see in my books.

Alright, a confession time mumbling I can't cook blues

I let my ex cooked for me though love devil blushing

Rendang (beef stewed curry) is yummy indeed and I sent its recipe to a friend overseas as per his request, his response was, "Wow, it seemed a big project" giggle

Lovely photos, summer, that chilly sour chicken looks like ayam rica-rica (steamed chicken with chilli paste) in Menadonese kitchen but maybe they both have different taste grin Serupa tapi bisa jadi tak sama grin

Asyik yang bisa masak, selamat merebut perutnya eh hatinya dengan masakanmu wink hug bouquet
Ah me always likey blogs about food yay
Too bad I don't cook, reason why am saying that is coz I believe I actually could only if I want to :laugh

Usually I will only cook every few months upon request (only the good exes who can talk me into cooking what they asked hahaha)

I believe cooking is related to hobby and the love you pour into the food, quite similar with gardening too drinking

Please send to my place some of your cooking Summer peace
