Hokkien Mee Curry

Salam...actually, aku baru jer bangun tido...hehehe... pening kepala jap tadi..so zzzzz ler dulu. Hari ni aku buat nasi kukus dan ayam sambal, tp sume benda tu tak sentuh pun lagi.Sebabnya ada emergency menu, masak MEE KARI.

Pukul 9.30pagi tadi, Jebat balik rumah bawak 2 bungkus nasi lemak berlauk. Katanya tengahari nanti nk ajak kengkawan dia datang beraya. Suruh buat MEE KARI. Aku suruh ler dia pegi beli barang, tp katanya tak sempat. Nk kena keluar kerja (tak jauh pun, dekat kawasan rumah ni jer..)So aku pun cepat2 tutup dapur dan pegi pasaraya. Sib baik kat pasaraya tu sume barang ada. Kalo tak, kena menyinggah kedai lain la plak.

Dah lama cari resipi ni. Tapi nk membuatnya tak kesampaian, sbb sifat M yang sentiasa melanda. Sori yer..respi dalam bahse omputih. Korang translate la sendiri..

Selain mee kari, aku sempat gak la buat popia goreng. Tapi sayang, sume mende2 tu tak sempat nk dirakamkan dalam kamera sebab sebaik saja abis masak, Jebat dan kengkawannya pun sampai rumah. Sib baik aku dh suruh anak aku yang 2 ketui tu kemas rumah dan lap apa yang patut.

Lebih kurang 8 orang yang datang tadi (sib baik la dinning table ni utk 8 orang..so muat ler semua skali nk makan..)*** Si Along yg tukang snap gambar ni. Masa ni beberapa orang dh abis makan dan membuat lawatan ke kolam ikan kami plak..
