1 down, a few more to go :-)

Alhamdulillah, dapat jugak buat 1 jenis biskut raya semalam.

Hari ni cadangnya nak buat 2 jenis lagi (yang senang2 aje. Tak kuasa I nak buat yg susah2 ni, hahaha.). Ingat nak buat biskut semprit or dahlia sebab I suka biskut old-timers ni.

Bila I tanya The Other Half and Miss 7 what kind of biscuit they would like for Eid, diaorang both jawab, “Anzac biscuits please!”

Nampak noh orang Aussie nya!

Miss 12 tak minat sgt biscuits except choc chip cookies which I will also make sebab so senang nak buat.

I pulak teringin sangat2 nak buat and makan biskut mazola sebab every year masa I kecik2 dulu, Mak I akan buat biskut mazola ni because it was arwah Atuk’s favourite biscuit.

(But because of Miss 7, terpaksalah I pendam hasrat hati. I don’t think biskut mazola will be as sedap kalau I ganti guna kacang lain kan. I rasa kacang tanah tu yang buat mazola ni so so moreish!)

And I think I nak cuba buat buah redan (kuih buah rotan) tahun ni. Ini pun our yearly kuih raya masa I kecik2.

Apa lagi ye yang Mak I selalu buat dulu?

I think yang mesti ada were biskut nestum, biskut rinta, biskut mazola, buah redan, rempeyek, kerepek keladi and kerepek pisang.

But bila pergi beraya kat rumah Arwah Atuk n Nenek, segala macam biskut modern ada kat atas meja. Masa tu memang tak cukup tangan and mulut nak merasa all those fancy biscuits, hehehe.

I rasa macam sedaaaaaaaaaaaap gilers all those fancy bandar biscuits!

Ye lah, we all duduk kampung so tak peka dengan all the modern biscuits. Sedara mara I yang duduk bandar would bawak balik all these modern biscuits ke kampung, masa tu aje lah we all dapat merasa biskut Raya bandar, hahaha.

Sekarang ni pulak, I couldn’t care less about fancy cookies. I teringin nak buat biskut2 zaman dolu dolu.

Which really shows that I am getting older lah kan, hahahahaha.

Last night for Iftar, I made kuih ketayap and goreng keropok lekor.

First time I buat ketayap this Ramadhan.

And for dinner pulak, I made chicken and vegetables pie. I used this recipe but I sauteed diced red onion and the vegetables first and didn’t use creamed corn nor shallots.

The pastry was ok, I liked it, but I think would be much better if I were to use puff pastry. Lagi terasa nikmat nya kot, hehehe.

The Little Misses cuma makan the chicken fillings aje and a bit of the pastry sebab they were already too full from the croutons!
