Last year I spent many evenings breaking fast in my apartment at Vista Angkasa with my housemates and I longed to be at home in Penang with my family. But yesterday was special, I was 500km away from Penang but still in a place so rightfully home.Yesterday was the first day of Ramadhan in the year of 1427H and the first Ramadhan in my life with me being a wife.
I was excited and looking forward to bukak puasa yesterday, it was the first bukak puasa meal id be preparing for my husband in my whole life. Since it was a significant breaking of fast meal in my life, I guess I would jot it in my blog.
I wanted to cook a few different dishes that Azman liked but at 2pm we went to Matta fair and arrived home 2 hours before Maghrib. There was too little time considering that there was also some grocery shopping needed to be done.
Anyhow I managed to make my Freestyler Fried Mihun and Spicy Chicken Wings as main dishes,
Dates and Mihun Goreng with lotsa chicken, beef and vege the way I like it..
Spicy Chicken Wings, marinated with Lea & Perrins and dusted with chilli powder mix with chemical X and roasted till golden brown…
of course the opening delicacy was dates and for dessert I made Bubur Caca with Purple Sweet Potato.For drinks we had Laichee juice, yummy!! The Bubur was his personal request ( I guess he was missing his mom’s cooking, hehe! )and the first that I’ve ever cooked in my entire 24 young years of age so I guess it was a pretty major personal cooking success of mine. We also had some juicy sweet watermalon…
My Bubur CaCa debut, nothing like watermelon and very juicy laichee at the end of the hot day…
My mom was always telling us that preparing a meal for those who has been fasting in Ramadhan is a great virtue and I think if my mom happens to read this entry she would be proud.I have always been so hampeh in helping her in the kitchen… Gosh,I miss my mom.isk..
For you my friends if you too happen to be reading this, I wish all of you
a very blessed Ramadhan!! Selamat Melakukan Ibadah Puasa from Diyana & Azman.
