Kiwifruit & Apple Breakfast Smoothie

A lot of times when you feel like having a quick breakfast but yet packing in loads of nutrients that can last through the entire morning, try this smoothie combination.



When you go through the steps, you'll notice that I blend the flaxseeds into powder like form. I've read somewhere (can't recall now) by using them in powder form, you will reap more fibre and nutrients from them as the smooth seeds may just pass out undigested. You may add in some yoghurt but I did not since I don't have any on hand :p If I have bananas on hand, I will add one in as well.


Kiwifruit & Apple Breakfast Smoothie
Serves 3 - 4

1 Tbsp flaxseeds
2 Tbsp rolled oats
3 green kiwifruits, peeled and sliced
3 medium sized apples, peeled and sliced
120 ml milk
3 Tbsp honey
1 cup ice

Place flaxseeds in a blender and blend flaxseeds* into almost powder like. Add in the rest of the ingredients and blend till smooth and serve immediately. If you let it rest for a longer period, somehow the flaxseeds will turn the smoothie a little jellied which may not go down well for everybody.

* If you use them often, you can blend them in a larger batch in a spice mill into powder form and store in air tight container in the freezer compartment.

Personal Tips:

I usually freeze fruits that I would use in any smoothies. I would remove them for about 15 minutes from the freezer before using. This way, I do not need to use any ice, hence the smoothie pack more punch.

It's a great way to store excessive fruits that threatened to ripen in the freezer. To prepare, just need to peel and slice the fruits up before placing them in air tight container or even zip lock bags. If they're fruits that tend to oxidise, I will squeeze a little lemon juice over and toss.

Homemade Healthy Granola

Homemade Healthy Granola V1.0

I've been making my own granola for a while. It's really super easy and healthy as you know what ingredients you have put into the mix. Way easier than reading and deciphering the ingredients used in boxes or packages.

Served with the usual milk and fresh fruits or what we liked yoghurt and fruits which at times BoiBoi would love this as his dessert with a drizzle of chocolate sauce or maple syrup. For myself, I'll have a handful of these when I crave for a snack. For those who are new here, do check out my homemade yoghurt recipe filled with fail proof tips. Yes, yes I know a bit over the top huh, everything homemade except I don't have a cow to milk from heh! :p

Homemade Healthy Granola V1.0 in a mixing bowl

Homemade Healthy Granola V1.0 all laid out on baking tray

Anyway the first version of granola where I experimented using raw cane sugar instead in syrup form. The only issue is the sugar did not melt and caramalised. Conclusion is... best to use sugar in syrup form which can be corn syrup, maple syrup or honey. Don't fret over the use of sugar in your granola as the entire recipe only requires 2 Tbsp! Consider very little as oppose to store bought stuff.

Homemade Healthy Granola V1.0 cooling down

Homemade Healthy Granola V1.0

250 g rolled oat
50 g sunflower seed
50 g pumpkin seed
20 g flax seed
150 g walnut and almonds, roughly chopped
80 g organic raw cane sugar
30 ml sunflower oil
1/2 tsp vanilla essence
250 g mixture of golden raisins, black raisins and cranberries

Mix all ingredients except the dried fruits in a mixing bowl. Line tray with baking paper and bake in pre-heated oven at 170ºC between 15 - 20 minutes. Turn the mixture every 8 minutes or so or when you see the edges and top portion turned browned. It's done when mixture become golden brown. Remove from oven and cool down. Once cooled, mix in the dried fruits and store in air tight glass jar.

Yield about 700 g of granola. Keep up till 7 days or longer in the fridge.

Version 2.0 is the tweaked version where a syrup is used. The granola mix is just lightly coated with syrup hence it's not exactly sweet. The dried fruits are there to sweeten up anyway. Just feel free to experiment to put in your choice of dried fruits and nuts.

Kaya and Omelette Sandwich

You must think that I have gone nuts posting something so simple like this :p but for me the simplest are usually the best tasting stuff ever!

I used to go to this food court near my previous work place for breakfast with a couple of my ex-colleagues many years ago. The drinks stall usually served simple breakfast fare like kaya toast with soft boiled eggs; roti john; toasted bun etc, you get the gist... but at one time they introduced this sandwich which I can't remember what was the name since it was "that" long ago. In fact I have totally forgotten about this sandwich which I liked cos it has two of my favourite items - kaya and egg!

One morning recently, I've made myself just a simple bread with kaya, then I noticed I haven't placed my eggs into the fridge. Hence, I took the carton and lifted the eggs from the carton to place them into the fridge. Anyway, one of the egg cracked a little whilst I was doing it eeekkk! So what should I do??? Since I didn't want to keep the egg, what better way than to use it right away.

I cracked 2 eggs into a bowl and lightly beat it. Lightly oiled a frying pan and proceed to made a thin omelette. In fact I could made 2 thin ones from 2 eggs! Next, I slotted the omelette in between my kaya spreaded bread, the Hainanese (kopitiam) type, and voila... a Kaya and Omelette Sandwich heh :p

One set for me and another set for Capt'n Hook. Ohhh yums!



Sorry for the lameness of this post LOL. Happy morning!

Review: iSnack 2.0 is now Vegemite Cheesybite

Vegemite - it's something you either love or hate!!! It's the Australian version of Marmite. Anyway, I had the chance to picked up a small jar of iSnack 2.0 which will be renamed to Vegemite Cheesybite come mid January. The iSnack name stirred up a lot of controversial when it was first introduced. Kraft admitted the name sucks and they ran a contest to rename this product and finally Vegemite Cheesybite was chosen.

So what's the difference? Basically Vegemite or rather Marmite/Bovril which is more commonly available is just an yeast extract which in Malaysia, I know a lot of parents would add on to the rice porridge and feed it to their children. Well, I was one of them... the children part heh!

So this iSnack 2.0 is actually Vegemite with cream cheese! When I first tasted it, I did not read the label. I felt it was buttery and after looking at the label closely yesterday :p I saw the cream cheese part. No wonder the texture is so different from Vegemite. LOL so you see the pic, I actually spread butter on the bread first before the iSnack *roll eyes* lucky it's only a light butter spread.

This version is smooth and velvety. Very easy to spread on the bread and it's not as strong and salty as the original version. I loved it. Not sure if it's available in Malaysia. Will check and let you guys know. I wonder if it will taste all right if I add them to my oats :p

Btw, if you are getting one, try not to get a large bottle unless your entire family loves it. This version need to be consumed within 4 weeks of opening due to it's dairy content!

Butter, Peanut Butter and Kaya Toasts

Last week I chanced up Kong Kay's roti bakar post. It's this sua koo's (country bumpkin) first time seeing toasted bun with thick slab of butter on one side and the other side was spread with peanut butter and pandan kaya!!! If you look at Kong Kay's pic, they have a beautiful contrast especially the emerald green kaya.

Yesterday, I tried this combi. On 2 slices of Mrs Macgregor (I forgot which type hahaha cos Capt'n Hook bought it for me but it has poppy seeds on top) toasts, I spread butter (yikes didn't realise I spread on so much *picit my spare tyre*) on one side and the other peanut butter and homemade kaya given to me by Pure Glutton. The peanut butter really elevated the normal kaya butter toasts to another level. The burst of saltiness and sweetness... kinda weird but it's a nice kind of weird which I liked :p

The kaya by Pure Glutton has a thick consistency which I remember how homemade ones are like, not overly sweet, so now all we have to do is wait for her to pass out the kaya recipe :D Thanks ;-)

Review: Breakie at La Bodega Deli

Back when I was young, Sunday is always a treat for us as Dad will bring us out for breakie. Breakfast at Yut Kee would have been a great treat as other times kopitiam that serves good chu cheung fun, char koay teow, pork ball noodles or wantan meen would make us jump too.

However kids these days are far more privileged just like my boiboi. His daddy takes him to Old Town Kopitiam whenever he fancies some french toasts or at times a place that serves big breakfast when the maid mummy is not cooking up any yummy breakie.



This time we went to La Bodega Deli for some BIG breakfast. We were a little late for breakie but it's all right since big breakfast is served all day here. Daddy and mummy both have a portion of BIG breakfast with juice and coffee/tea thrown in for RM27++ each (RM22++ without the drinks). Boiboi wasn't interested to share with mummy after he saw the words waffles + ice-cream (RM18++) in the menu. I can't blame him... who could resist warm waffles topped with cold ice-cream???



Our big breakfast came with beef bacon, breakfast sausages, fried mushrooms, half a grilled tomato, baked beans, a slice of toast and eggs done in our choice, scrambled for me and bullseye for Capt'n Hook. Can't fault them as everything was done just as they should especially my scrambled eggs. When my plate reaches the table, my boiboi couldn't resist asking to share some of mine *roll eyes*. I think he ate virtually 3/4 of my eggs, half of my toast and all the sausages plus my juice.





When the waffles came, my boiboi only took a bit of the waffles but ate almost all of the ice-cream. So ended up the mummy and daddy doing the Alam Flora bit as usual. The waffles were crisp on the outside but fluffy on the inside... tastes just as good plain or like us with some honey drizzled all over since boiboi ate up all the ice-cream which came in a single scoop only to go with 4 slices of waffles.



This is the kinda deli we would love to kick off our shoes on a lazy Sunday morning with excellent and attentive service from the wait staff. If only they're nearer home... sighhhh.

La Bodega Deli charges 10% for service charge and 5% goverment tax.

Beef, Onions & Peas Quiche

Using the same recipe as Mini Cheese & Spinach Quiche, I sub the cheese and spinach with sliced beef, onions and peas. I browned the onion first before tossing in beef slices marinaded with soy sauce, a dash of worchestershire sauce, a bit of cornflour and pepper. Stirred quickly and added the peas. Season with some salt and black pepper. Dish up and cool down before placing them evenly over the pastry. Pour in egg and milk concoction and bake.

You can use frozen shortcrust pastry or make your own. I made mine this round. If you need the recipe, just leave a note in the comment and I'll post up the recipe.

Basil Omelette and Roasted Peppers Open Sandwich

With El Nino and haze looming over Kuala Lumpur, many times I just don't feel like doing anything but just veg out, cooking over hot stove is really out of the question!

I still have to feed myself eh... so I go for simplicity. A simple sandwich usually will do for me like this one. I bought a bunch of Thai basil from the market and was thinking of the ways of using them up. Usually I would boil a soup but I'm not drinking hot soup in such weather :p So what I did was plucked and cleaned some leaves; chucked them into a lightly beaten egg and made an omelette out of them.

I toasted a slice of my homemade multi-grain bread, butter it and place some tomato slices over. Drizzle a bit of extra virgin olive oil and a light sprinkling of balsamic vinegar. Place the omelette on top and some left over roasted pepper (capsicum). More olive oil and balsamic vinegar, plus some freshly grated black pepper. Voila!!! Simple, fast and best of all no hovering over the stove for more than 2 minutes, YAY!

Review: Gardenia's Banana Walnut Loaf

I was in Singapore for a few days in December and I totally fell in love with their supermarts hahaha... IF I turned off my auto-currency conversion, I could shop for a lot of stuff not found in Kuala Lumpur and the prices seems reasonable.

One of the item I had loved so much that I brought back loaves... it's just plain old loaf of bread off the shelves of supermarts/7-11s - Gardenia's Banana Walnut loaf!!!



I must be so mad huh? I'm quiet sad how come Gardenia Malaysia do not produce so many choices plus the healthier range??? Just look at Gardenia Singapore's website, you can scroll down the long list of items on the left menu and start questioning! You can also compare both websites and ours looked pathetic :( plus load so much slower.

It's no joke ok cos in Singapore, they have focaccia, multi grains, low GI, country loaves etc etc... the list is endless. Are the Malaysian consumers less sophisticated and less health conscious?? Aww come on Gardenia Malaysia... do some market research and you'll be surprised. I also found Sunshine bread which long disappeared from our shelves. My dad used to buy them from the roti man especially the brown ones! I still remember the colourful waxed wrapper, darn I so missed them now.

Anyway, back to the banana walnut loaf, it's really superb with generous amount of banana and walnut pieces scattered all over. The banana fragrance that perfumed the loaf does not smell nor tasted artificial. The bread has mixture of plain flour, wholemeal flour and banana puree which render a soft textured bread. I simply loved it, best when eaten on its own! True to their tagline!!!

I've tried them toasted - plain and with peanut butter. I even made french toasts with them heh BUT it's still the best when eaten on its own.

Capt'n Hook is going Singapore tomorrow for a meeting and going to hand him my shopping list for breads :p yippeeeeeee!!!!

Thanks love hahahaha... for having to tolerate with a mad woman :D

More Ways with Corned Beef

Here are more ways to enjoy a regular can of corned beef... or rather one can, 2 ways :D

I've read in a blog about those char charn teng (local cafes) in Hong Kong serves corned beef with egg on toasts. The pic seems like corned beef omelette so I pandai-pandai (cleverly) just stir-fry the corn beef for a while with a sprinkle of black pepper before breaking in the eggs. So here's one style... eaten in between two slices of bread or toasts (not pictured) with chilli sauce was a wholesome goodness!



Next, I brown some chopped onions with some olive oil before adding corned beef. Sprinkle in generous dose of black pepper (I like loads with my corned beef :p). Stir and fry for a few minutes before pouring in strained canned whole corn kernels. Stir till well mixed and dish up. Best eaten by stuffing them into a warmed up pita bread lined with lettuce and tomatoes (sorry, no pics again hehehe - inside stomach liau).

Banana Pancakes

Let's today be a sugar high Friday even though this recipe doesn't contain sugar. I got this recipe from an old copy of Her World Cookbook. The entire cookbook was themed eat healthy. I find the recipes were rather easy substituting the unhealthy ingredients with the healthy ones. This is one of them but I've made these Banana Pancake a bit devilish by frying them in butter and drizzling honey all over when served. Not only that, I've used 250ml of low fat milk and 2 full eggs since I won't know what to do with the yolks at the time of cooking.



My boiboi who doesn't like bananas told me the pancakes were delish and I think so too!

Banana Pancakes
(Serves 6 - 8)

190g self-raising flour
2 tsp baking powder
pinch of salt
300ml low fat or skimmed milk
2 tbsp vegetable oil
2 egg whites, beaten lightly
1 tsp vanilla essence
280g ripe bananas (preferably pisang emas), mashed well
1/4 tsp cardamon powder
1/4 tsp nutmeg powder

1. Sift together flour, baking powder and salt in a mixing bowl.

2. Combine milk, egg whites, 1 tbsp oil, vanilla essence and beat well. Stir into flour until just combined. Do not overmix.

3. Mix nutmeg and cardamon with mashed bananas and add into batter.

4. Heat remaining oil in non-stick pan and pour in a ladle of batter. When bubbles start to appear on the surface and the edges turn golden brown, flip it over and cook for another 1 min. Remove onto a serving plate. Repeat process until batter is used up.

5. Serve hot with your favourite topping of fruit, or jam.

Ref: Her World Cookbook Vol 72

We have a few left over pancakes from breakfast. Boiboi and I decided to turn them into dessert. What I did was zapped the pancakes on High for 30 secs and scoop pralines n cream ice-cream on top. Sinfully delicious!

Breakie at IKEA Restaurant

There was one Sunday that hubby needed to be at Ikano by 11.00am to meet with his classmates. Since they're only meeting for a couple of hours, he roped myself and boiboi in to hang out there. As it was kinda early, we decided to check out the breakfast served at IKEA Restaurant, our first for breakie.

We reached there right around 9.45am but Ikea seems to be abuzz with activities, more so when we walked into the restaurant on the first floor. The place is packed and long lines formed! Hmmm I checked the stuff they served that day, it was nasi lemak or chicken char siu bao going for 99 sens each! So cheap?? Cheaper than the makcik's nasi biasa!

We got ourselves the nasi lemak and char siu bao for boiboi, then the usual tea/coffee and juice. Earlier we noticed people carrying plates of deep fried chicken pieces but when it was our turn to order, they have ran out. The server asked hubby to wait 10 minutes. By the time it was my turn to pay, hubby had gotten his 3 pieces of fried chicken going at RM2.00 per piece. Not bad huh the price... just like the usual makcik's.

The char siu baos are of mini sized and I really meant MINI! They came in two. My boiboi finished one in 2 mouthfuls!!! Errr the photos depicted a rather big bao eh? The bao has thick dough with very little filling but my boiboi did not complain.



Knowing it's not enough for him, I asked if he wanted to try some nasi lemak. He refused initially since he saw the sambal on the plate. We managed to coaxed him to try some without the sambal of course. Also gave him some fried chicken. It's his first time eating nasi lemak actually haha cos usually our nasi is laden with spicy sambal so he never get the chance to try. I need to start training him for spicy food... any tips???

The nasi lemak tasted not bad for 99 sens that came with the usual condiments of deep fried ikan bilis, peanuts and half an egg. The rice is not rich with barely a hint of santan (coconut milk) and came in quite a large bowl. Lucky I gave some to boiboi, otherwise I doubt I could have finish. The sambal is not hot at all with a tinge of sweetness in them, certainly not the best but hey at 99 sens, who is complaining??? However, the chicken marinaded in turmeric is good. Since it was just off the hot oil, the skin is crispy and at least it's tasty. My boiboi loved the chicken and managed to finish them with the small portion of rice I gave to him.



Other than these, they have the usual sandwiches, muffins and cinnamon rolls. Later we saw our neighbour brought sugared doughnuts hmm... Since it's my first time there, I'm not sure if their breakfast menu is on a rotation basis but seriously I don't mind going again just to check out.

Oh yah... they should also serve their ever so delish curry puffs here too!

Baked French Toast

'Twas Sunday morning and we're too lazy to go out for breakie. I checked the fridge and found some stale bread which is good to be converted into french toasts but I was too lazy to fry them one by one. So what I did was pile the bread slices onto a baking tray. Mixed up some eggs, milk, castor sugar and cinnamon powder. Poured over the bread slices, making sure they're enough to be soaked up by the bread.



Sprinkled some brown sugar on top and dotted some butter all over too. Lastly, I placed some grated cheese all over and bake in the oven till browned.



Cut them up and serve while they're hot. Very easy, not much cleaning and best of all very yummy too! Boiboi had 2 servings!!!

Homemade Big Breakfast

It seems to be in fashion now to serve an all day big breakfast on weekends at cafes. As far as I know, La Bodega Deli in Bangsar has been serving this some years back and it is very popular. A big breakfast is an English breakfast of eggs, sausages, bacon, sauteed mushroom, tomato, toasts served with coffee/tea and a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice. All these for round about of rm25++ (I can't recall the exact amount). It has since caught on with many cafes like Dome Cafe, Delicious Cafe, right down to Pizza Uno serves similar big breakfast.

Actually to think about it, one could actually recreate the breakfast right at home at a fraction of the price. I sort of did just that, well not intentional, else I would have gotten the appropriate ingredients to complete the big breakfast. One Sunday morning, I found a pack of fresh button mushroom in my fridge drawer which I had forgotten to add into my Stewed Lamb Shank the day before so I need to do something with them ASAP hahaha must be getting old... duh!

Since I'm not cooking lunch or dinner that Sunday, looks like I need to use it for breakfast... I checked my fridge again... I have enough eggs, some skiny sausages that my brother gotten from China (Don't ask me why he bought them!!! A bit mad to carry them back.) during one of his business trip, and a pack of Meidi-ya's English muffins.

Got on to work by first frying the sausages in some olive oil. Dish them up. Once done, melted some butter in the same pan and poured in a bit of milk. Cracked in the eggs and stirred to make scrambled eggs. Split them into two plates. Sliced the muffins into halves and toast a bit in the same pan. Placed the muffins onto the serving plates. Next, I chopped some garlic and fry them with some olive oil. Placed in sliced button mushrooms and stir fry a bit. Crack in some black pepper and a sprinkle of sea salt to taste. Pour them into the serving plates.

Squeezed some oranges for the juice, since I don't take coffee... I omitted that. There, my version of big breakfast, minus the tomato and bacon, oh yeah and coffee. The portion managed to serve myself, hubby and boiboi too... all in less than RM50 definitely!

PBBT

Hehehe a code used by Dafthamsta and myself, guess what it is??



It has been a long long time since I last have this with Dafthamsta and the rest of the gang, more like every since Oliver Super Sandwich has closed most if not ALL its branches. The sandwich place (Super Sandwich I think) that replaced it really can't be compared with the then Oliver Super Sandwich.

PBBT... got it?? No?? It's actually stands for Peanut Butter Banana Toastie!!!!

I made those in the picture using a sandwich maker. Simply place one slice of bread on the sandwich maker. Spread peanut butter on the open side. Next, place sliced bananas around the indentation. Sprinkle with some optional sugar or cinnamon powder or both. Place a second slice of bread with peanut butter side over the banana layer. You may also butter the sides of bread touching the plate of the sandwich maker to achieve a golden brown toastie. Latch on the sandwich maker and let the light go off. Stand by the sandwich maker to absorb the wonder aroma wafting thru...

Eat it while it's warm and watch out for the HOT fillings!!!

Hamsta, enjoy the PBBT virtually :D

Ways With English Muffin

Gee I hoped everyone had had a wonderful time ushering the new year. May the New Year bring you happiness and peace, and the strength and courage to follow your dreams. May you forget the weight of yesterday and focus on the path ahead, guided by your heart and the light of hope. May you find beauty in everything and goodness in every heart. And may you always remember that you are blessed.

Life has been hectic both at home and work. I have very little time catching up with all the postings by all the food bloggers, so I'm kinda pretty lost and out of touch of the blogsphere. I have thousands and one pictures (back from December) but sad to say I don't have much time to process them, let alone writing them up here. So, updates here gonna be sporadic. Gosh... and Chinese New Year is coming along pretty soon too!!!!

Anyway, I got grounded at home sometime last month for having sore eyes. I managed to have some "alone" time catching up on my sleep (I sleep very little these days... I usually knock off around 1.00am or later and wakes up around 6.00am) and reading up blogs that I've missed. Knowing very well that I'll be grounded all alone, I got myself some English Muffins from Meidi-ya Fresh Bakery. I've no idea if this Meidi-ya is related to the Japanese store but all I know this bakery bakes loads of cottony soft Japanese breads and pastries. I'm sort of addicted with their breads since they first opened in Kuala Lumpur way back in the mid 80s. I can claim that ALL (better don't put this, just to be polite hehehe) most of their concoctions are delicious down to the last bite and they do not stinge with their fillings or toppings.

These English Muffins were introduced a few months back and I was rather happy to say they tasted utmost delicious. I got the wholemeal ones but they have the plain ones too. Surprisingly to know that English Muffins were originated from America hahaha yeah... you can read them all here and here. There are 4 muffins in one pack (sorry forgot the price) and here are some quick and easy ways I went round to feed myself.

After going thru my larder and fridge, I found a small can of baked beans which is near expiring and some celery and carrots (for my juicing). I stir fried the chopped celery and carrots with some olive oil before adding the baked beans and some water. Dished up and topped with some freshly ground black pepper. Woooshhhh... delish OK, but then again I might be biased cos I simply loved baked beans in any style. I served this with buttered muffin.

For my next meal, I checked up my larder (yes, I have a pretty large one, 4 tiered tall pull-out cabinet filled to the brim with foodstuff, kekekeke like magic only, anything also can be found inside) and I took out one can of TC Boy Tuna with Mayonnaise. I kinda like TC Boy's tuna with mayo cos it's not too creamy and sweet, best it has some corn bits in there and I forgot what else that I liked. Buttered my muffins, spread some tuna mayo and topped with grated carrots plus a slice of cheddar cheese. Heh, another way to devour the muffins.

Next, I spread the tuna mayo mixed with grated carrots on the muffins. Topped with grated cheddar cheese and toast it using a mini oven toaster. Mmmmm another tasty way with the muffins.

Well, this is the lazy person way of taking care of her meals at home alone even though restaurants, hawker stalls and 7-11 are merely a stone throw away hahahaha but seriously speaking, I loved bread so much that I can just eat them all the time even for all my meals :p Anyone up to making me a sandwich???

Easy Breakfast Omelette

Easy peasy and quick omelette... stir fry chopped yellow bell pepper and carrots in olive oil. Add in chopped sausages. Fry till browned and add some salt and pepper according to taste. Lightly beat egg and pour over fried ingredients. Let egg set and place cheese over. Fold into half and continue to fry omelette till lightly browned. Best served hot with ketchup, chilli sauce and mustard.

Funny thing is that my boiboi likes to eat eggs in the form of omelette. He disliked hard and soft boiled eggs. He ate almost half of my omelette after drinking his milk!
