Normal

...well at least SOME sense of normalcy :-)

Aina's fully recovered now, and she seems to be even more mischievous and cheeky!

I've not warmed up my 'new kitchen' so I thought of adding a simple recipe of what I made for dinner last night, Ayam Masak Kicap.

AYAM MASAK KICAP
(quantity of spice ingredients depends on quantity of chicken)
chicken pieces
shallots*
garlic*
ginger*
(all * ingredients to be pounded to a paste)
dark soy sauce
sweet soy sauce
light soy sauce
oyster sauce
white pepper, salt & sugar to taste

heat oil in a wok and fry pounded ingredients.
add in combined mixture of sauces, with a bit of water.
bring to boil, then add chicken pieces. bring up to boil again, then lower heat and leave to simmer for about 15 mins, until chicken is cooked through. if gravy becomes a bit dry or thick, adjust by adding water to desired consistency. season to taste before serving.


Aina was also over the moon last nite as she was able to see her babah via our webcam, and she was grinning the whole time her babah was talking to her. Needless to say, Aina's babah was also happy to see her :-D :-D :-D

Seems that he may be held back a few extra days, but hopefully he'll be back before the end of the month as I've planned a bit of activity for us then.

Our short break this weekend has been cancelled due to some unforeseen reason, but we (Aina and me) will be making a short trip back to Ipoh to visit my maternal grandmother on Chinese New Year.

Don't scoff, because FYI.... I am 50% made up of chinese blood! ehehehehe
