Nutrient Packed Porridge

Had this really nutrient packed porridge for dinner today, tomoto, mushroom, fishball, egg, cranberry bean, black beans and crispy fried garlic (tipu a bit, use microwave).





Served with coriander fish (no chicken)... taste so so... hubby said too strong coriander taste, while I think I prefer plain bake fish... hehehe...

Simit 2nd Attempt








Tried making simit again, and this time, its a lot better than the first time, looks and taste more like the one we had in Turkey.

Fish Cake Pizza

Hubby had been asking me to make pizza for him for quite some time, but I was just lazy. Since its public holiday here in Miri for the past two days and I had gotten the ingredients, here we are, having fish cake pizza for super early dinner (5pm)...hehehe...


Gotten the recipe for the Dough from this Easy Pizza Dough Recipe website:


  • 1 cup of warm water (105F)


  • 3 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour


  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil


  • 2 teaspoons of honey


  • 1 teaspoon of salt


  • 1 teaspoon of yeast



Mix the water, yeast, honey and salt and leave it for 10mins. Later pour the mixture over the flour and olive oil and mix till you get a dough. Leave it to sit for 30mins, covered. Then punch off the air, knead and let it sit for another for another 30mins.


Divide the dough to two portion (made two pieces, and if u prefer thinner crust, can make up to three), and flatten it to the shape of the crust you like. If you prefer it thinner, just make sure u role it really thin (it will get a little big after baking). Use the fork to poke holes all over it.




Spread some tomato sauce + mayo over it. Start laying the other ingredients on it. I used dried chinese mushroom, fishcake, pineapple, onions, crabstick, and some sesame seed + mixed herbs. Bake at 200 degree Celsius for 20 mins, and take it out to add cheese (dont have mozzarrella, so uses cheddar instead). Bake for another 5mins.... Done, ready to serve.
