Jom Masak Nasi Daging!

Morning everyone! After about a week fasting, I have gotten into the groove of eating early in the morning and forgetting my morning coffee, first thing when I got to my work-station! I have tried a few new recipes, but somehow I have still yet to find the sparks to make cookies for Eid!...am soooo lazy to tend to those minute creatures! I thought of making macarons, but, my MIL's would be too full to keep them...so nah....maybe I'd make them when in Ayer Baloi...the kitchen is being renovated, and I haven't a clue of how it would turn out to be....not been back for quite a while!

Saturday....it was hectic, hubs got contractors to paint the house! With loads of magazines and books and other nooks and crannies.,..the house was a total mess!...anyway....I did this and I did that, I bought this and I bought that....no, no a new handbag or something of that vice, hehe.....but....hehe....won't tell you yet...

and after daily looking and drooling at all the cooks and bakes in arah's blog, I couldn't hold myself anymore! I had to make this yesterday! It's my hubs' favourite!

Air Assam MIL Sayang

I just add all of the above in a large bowl and waited for iftar!

Thank you Arah for this recipe and all the recipes that you are posting! Think next year I'll take the entire Ramadhan off so that I can try all the recipes daily! pssst....you'll find that I have tweaked this recipe, as usual, hehe! And thank you also the original contributors Dapurku Sayang and Secubit GAram .
Guess who's most excited when Raya/Eid is coming??!! My hubs!...and this year (thank God) he started early! Curtains will be changed, pictures reframed, new cushion covers...amd he's talking about new plates and saucers! In the mean time, the house look like someone has gone amok! even the monkeys are playing elsewhere, haha! 
And, here's some macarons that I made for Fiza and Yusof on Saturday, Salted Caramel, Double Choc using Valrhona, and Raspberry Italian Meringue Buttercream! 

Till then, tra!
