It's frusting really to expect that i could fast the full month of Ramadhan this year when umat2 Islam belum mula berpuasa i dah pun beraya!
My angels dira n faiz came back for the weekend to start the beginning of Ramadhan together with us but unfortunately my anak bongsu lukman was unable to come home due to having some monthly test. Poor thing...
whenever i cook some extra or special lauk pauk i always feel sad if any of my kids are not around to enjoy it! Sebak rasanye....
So having many thoughts of what menu to cook on the first day of fasting,i decided to make curry kerapu fish head, rendang udang, kerabu tauge n sup tauhu with fish ball, carrot n brocolli.
the popia basah n the murtabak are fr.the bazaar ramadhan...knowing the kids...they just cant have one or two kueh for berbuka puasa...
And as for the pencuci mulut i make my hubby's favourite bubur kacang n karipap pusing...the recipe which i got from sis iha.
What a challenging task to start the day by making a difficult recipe. Alamak susahnye to get the right dough for this karipap pusing till i've to call sis iha several times for consultation. After a little alteration of here n there...walla! it got me a few container of karipap pusing ( karipap pusing- sedap dimakan sukar dibuat ).
And the second day of fasting...another long n tiring task to do...it's pulut panggang. Another long hours of sitting down...i guess i luv stressing myself eh! Tak pe lah selagi my family enjoy eating my air tangan i'm always there at their service...
stressing but interesting...
Dira n faiz went back after i packed them with all the food...
Actually bulan puasa ni we should berjimat n berbanyak beribadat but looks like berpesta makanan pulak! But one thing for sure... semua food tu i masak n none that we buy from any
warung jual juadah berbuka puasa... ooppps! i lupa...except those kueh that the kids bought in pasar Ramadhan.(tapi semua habis... tak membazir )
Masak..masak jugak ibadat jangan dilupakan...
nanti dapat pahala menahan makan je kan...a good reminder to me and to my friends out there ( if you dont mind ).
So happy fasting and cheerio!
Aslmkm..
ReplyDeleteMasak pun Ibadah, bagi keluarga makan, kann satu pahala..berganda lagi di bulan puasa.
Tapi jgn over sudah.
Okay nampak karipap tu..apa pun the first time tu is always the tough time..so don't give up!
Assalam Leeza
ReplyDeleteSelamat menyambut Ramadhan tapi dah riraya ke? hehe.. I dah bertahun2 jadi muslimah contoh, ahaks sebab tak tinggal puasa *wink*.
Bulan puasa dan bulan tak puasa cara masakan I sama saja...cuma sianak dara I tu yang terlebih seleranya. Dia beli apa yg teringin dia nak makan kat bazar (which her mum tak reti or malas nak buat, hehe). One of the good things about her, dia tak sker membazir. I pernah tolong my anak sedara buat karipap pusing but I told her takperlah I lebih rela tolong goreng karipap2 tu
Wkmslm sis...
ReplyDeleteYa..what u say is very true! especially kalau kita masak n beri makan kpd yg berpuasa masyallah besarnye pahala tapi jgn membazir sudahkn.

Selamat menyambut Ramadhan to u n family too. I hope ur TB dh recover ya.Tu lah i frust betoi when dh berbulan tak dtg tiba2 2 days sebelum puasa dah darurat. Alamat tak dptlah mengerjakn puasa yg pertama. Actually i pun tak lah beria2 masak dlm bln Ramadhan ni cuma i suka masak benda yg rumit yg dibulan yg lain tak buat...lg pun Ramadhan is special n my hubby ni pun tak suka beli makanan diluar almaklumlah kena berpantang.
Salam Ramadhan al-Mubarak Kak Leeza...
ReplyDeleteTu dia aihhh.. penuh meja meriahnya, best kan dpt mkn sama2 ngan family, esp. dpt masak sedap2 kt our kids, nak2 lagi bebudak klu kecik2 puasa lagik la kita teruja nak masak makanan fav dia sbb kesian dah sari suntuk dia puasa, alhamdulillah tahun ni barulah dpt rasa nikmat itu sbb my Ammar dah boley puasa penuh heee...
karipap pusing mmg agak challenging, selalu dia pecah masa nak goreng! kita belajar from SIL, dah boley buat tp praktis out! asek malas jooo.. acaner tu?
Hi Yong
ReplyDeleteSalam Ramadhan to you too! Actually kita ni seronok masak byk sebab anak2. Kesian tgk budak2 tu berpuasa kalau lauk simple je...kan. Bila dh tinggal bedua beli je kut. Memang stressing betoi bila buat karipap pusing! Nak dpt.kn texture dough tu yg susah sampai berpeluh2 mengulinye tapi bila dh siap goreng memang sodap!
