It’s finally ready

We would like to welcome to the world our new ‘baby’ in the house….

Our first watermelon harvested from our front garden .

Beratnya mengalah kan baby baru lahir aje!

(Macam berat Miss 12 when she was 3 months old, hahahaha….)

Punyalah jauh lari from the weight I assumed the other day kan, hehehehehe….

Ingat tak my post a few days ago about our rockmelon and our watermelon.

Well, tadi I jenuh mengoogle cari ‘how to find out if your watermelon is ripe’.

Manalah we all tau bila nak petik kan so once I’ve read all the tips on how to assess the ripeness, I pun pergi lah tengok our watermelon itu.

The watermelon ticked all the ripe assessment boxes so I pun dengan hatiyang sungguh teruja, terus lah pi potong that fruit from the plant.

Punya lah giler berat I mengangkut bawak masuk dalam rumah, hahahaha.

And when I put it on my kitchen scale, it showed ‘Err’ which means error so maknanya lebih berat dari 5kg lah tu.

Pastu, teringat our bathroom body scale.

When Miss 8 and I saw the numbers yang tertera, punyalah ‘whooppedeedoo’ we all happy sakan, hahahahaha…..

But I tak berani nak kopek open lagi sebab kalau dah belah, mesti kena habiskan cepat2 kan .

I rasa, berat kulit aje kot ni, heeeee…..

(Arwah my Nenek dulu slalu buat sayur dish from kulit watermelon part yg putih tu but I tak sempat nak belajar dari dia macam mana nak buatnya).

Nasib baik lah semua orang kat rumah ni suka watermelon so taklah I sorang2 kena habiskan 7.4kg tu kan .

For dinner tadi, I made ricotta, feta, chicken and spinach pie.

I was a bit malas to make it into tiny little pies so I just made it in a cake tin. Senang kerja!

I used puff pastry for the bottom layer and the top layer. I guess if you use filo pastry and not put chicken in the filling, it will be like the Greek spanakopita lah kan.

But I didn’t have any filo pastry and puff pastry was way easier to handle anyway.

Bila nak makan, just cut it into slices macam potong kek.

We had it with ratatouille and garlic bread.

I cuma makan 1/8 aje, itupun dah cukup kenyang.

The Other Half makan 1/4 baru kekenyangan

tu yang dia kena kayuh basikal pergi balik kerja hari2 so badan dia tak membelon semula from eating too much food, hehehe.
