Preparation for my Open House

Hello hello~ Long time didnt write here. I just finished 14 weeks of my last sem~! *hurrey~~~~* Alhamdulillah. And dis week is my study week. So normally for 2-3 days, I will spent my time to rest..rest...rest...and rest..haha

So today, I suppose to study for my Calculus final exam this Saturday~ Hoho.

Before that, let me update something for you guys ^_^

Last 11th Oct, I had my Raya open house and invited my closed friends for makan2.
So, on 10th Oct, I prepared all foods for guests...with great help from mom and grandma =)

Some of the pics taken while preparing the foods...

Kacang yang ditumbuk untuk buat Kuah Kacang...and kacang tanah yang digoreng untuk aksesori soto ayam..haha..And last pic is nasi impit...masakkan selama 3 jam..Ingat ye...mesti 3 jam ke atas..untuk kelembutan yang berpanjangan..haha..

Then, dis time, I tried new recipe for Soto Ayam..

What is interesting about this recipe, it used santan (coconut milk) as one of da ingredient~

I think the person that invented this recipe is very very genius. We never thot to put santan in our soto. But the outcome is very very great. Normally, the sup part...is sup ayam kan..but dis time..memang rasa kuah soto..hoho..

You guys want to know the recipe? Here here I copy paste for you guys.

I'm so grateful because my mom came all the way from Puncak Alam to help me cook for my open house. My dad spent his money for all the ingredients that I need to cook. And my grandma with my mom helped me alot. Both of them always teached me in cooking. They are really my inspiration to learn cooking more and more.

Oh yeah..dis is my favourite part.
