sushi

- zaty.

how to make a sushi can be seen here : [click]

learn well, so that the batch of sushi you produce will not get screwed up.
like mine did :

sushi???

i show you the pictures, folks, as a lesson.

patience pays off.

i was impatient, so i couldn't wait for things to heat up and then cool down and stay warm etc etc. and other than that, i basically didn't really note the measurements of each ingredients. the rice was too sticky, i used too much vinegar (it stank, but thank god the sushi didn't -___-), and i had NO idea how to roll it up, but too lazy to google it up. and the only thing i placed in the sushi was egg slices. uglily-cut egg slices. *evil laughs*

but wait, there's more.

and as horrorful as above looks, there's something even scarier.
oh yes. it gets worse.

behold...

MY GHASTLY ATTEMPT AT CALIFORNIA ROLLS! *le shock*

the pathetic-looking california roll

i SO cannot cook for a living. hahahah. XD

more shots to lose your appetite, if you so desire (scroll down pls) ;)









a close up




hahahaha. don't judge food by its cover. the above pathetic-attempts at sushi may look ugly, but they taste more horrible than they look. hihihi ;P

Hot Tuna + Cheese Popiah

- Zaty.

So. This is a recipe from my cousin Rina, who bakes, cooks, and other wonderful things like crafties. She's awesome. *bows down in her presence* heheh.

It's totally simple. She introduced it to me a few weeks ago, and it takes less than 10 minutes (excluding time to thaw) to make!~

What you need:
  • Popiah 'covers' - sold at any super/hypermarket.
  • Tuna in tin - preferably the hot/chilli-flavored one
  • Cheese - preferably mozarella (y'know, the one on pizzas?) because it tastes gooood
Steps (easy peasy):
  1. Defrost & thaw the popiah covers, if frozen.
  2. Separate the covers from the stacked layers it comes in the packaging with.
  3. Slosh in some (a tablespoon) of the tuna in the middle of the popiah cover. Don't forget to sift away the excess oil from the tuna!
  4. Shred some mozarella cheese if you're in a nea mood, but you could just put a small chunk of cheese on top of #3
  5. Fold the popiah however you like. No, seriously. =D This is what's fun about it. Just make sure it is not loosely (not very tightly tho) wrapped, to prevent the content from seeping out.
  6. Fry your masterpieces.
  7. Eat & enjoy. =D
Will post pictures of this simply yet wonderful edible food. When I've mastered this, that is. I was too hungry just now to make decent-looking ones (heck, i didn't even wait to get the popiah covers thawed 0_o)

Happy cooking! ^____^
