SO SIMPLE...

Tinola...

Errmmm... Just feeling like having chicken soup, today i craved for Chicken Tinola... But no young papaya for cooking. It's one of the ingredients, but unfortunately I couldn't get it any where in the market this morning. So, it just only Green Mustard... It's Tinola With Out Young Papaya... Correctly named... Anyway it taste the same...
I have some stock of chicken in the refrigerator, some ginger, onion and garlic. Chili and black pepper, that's all. A simple and delicious meal for the day.... I have plenty of time for housework and some reading as well. For the past few weeks, I left it the car planned to read it when ever there is time but still it is just left there. I guess it just another day of my LAZY DAYS... It's ok, I had a very good lunch today with a complete meal of vege and chicken.
I still have this craves for Philippines food even after so long I didn't get this kind of nice traditional taste since years ago... Well, aha ... Good attempt this time...
By the way it's much better if cooked with young papaya, just splendid... indeed...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAK MOK !

It's Sera's birthday

18 th June... It's sera's birthday, I have not gotten any present for her. Since I started working in Bijoux, my life is only either home or kitchen. I don't even have the time to update my blog..!!! That explained .... No time for leisure nor for Sera, and she is getting mad when every time I had to turn down on our dates... I know... She is just missing me... Ya... That's it... Anyway, our every year tradition... I will bake a birthday cake, and this is it... a butter chocolate cake with chocolate frosting comes together with 4 cupcakes sprinkled with silver balls.

Bitter sweet chocolate frosting good with chocolate cake, I prefer butter chocolate cake compare to sponge cake. It gives richer and more chocolaty taste, and the butter smells so wonderful and you just can't resist it... YUMMMY.... It's so easy just mix butter, icing sugar and coco powder...

Sera loves classic but simple... It just white frosting piped on the coated cake, classic design with leaves... A simple black and white token of our friendship over 20 years... BLACK N WHITE OF OUR FRIENDSHIP... I love you babe... Happy Birthday Sweet Heart...
