Jemput Makan

Suddenly i feel i blog a lots about food. Skuzi...but that's what my daily job all about.

On Monday, we had nasi kerabu. But not the complete one. Minus, daun kantan, keropok (substituted with popadom instead)and budu. But, anyhow it tasted good enough to us. The husband said, ok sangat tapi if you can MAKE the budu would be better. MAKE?!. My all time favourite, nasi kerabu. There was one time, we went to Kota Bharu for Jae's wedding. Sibuk je breakfast with nasi kerabu cos there breakfast with nasi kerabu is a must just like breakfast with nasi lemak in KL. And i love Pasar Siti Khadijah (selingan...). Back to the nasi kerabu. i thought of making solok lada but i don't have the big green chili and fish. I 'kow tim' the one and only big fat mackerel for the assam laksa on Sunday. Tu la, tamak sangat sampai my assam laksa looks like some kind of fish chunks soup.



And the other food for the week

The gravy for Assam Laksa was not made by me. I brought all the way from KL. Product by Sunbeam. Bought it at Mydin USJ. A little bit cair, so i added coconut milk. Then by the time i took the photo i totally forgot about the sliced cucumber and onion. I had to stop the husband who was excitedly eating and ran to get them.




Just to share on some facts about taking photos of foods that you eat. This is as what i read in a health magazine produced by AMH called " Family HEALTH". Entah mana diaorg dapat duit to publish and distribute free mags. Printed on glossy colored paper somemore.

Article title: Snap Your Way to Slimmer Hips


"Could your camera phone help you lose weight? One study seems to suggest so.

When people in a small study snapped a picture of everything they ate for 1 week, something interesting happened. They took better stock of their meals and ate less or ate more healthily because of it.

Just think of it as a digital version of a food diary - but better - because it forces you to think about what you're eating before you put it in your mouth, instead of after. With written food diaries, it's too late - you log your choices after the fact.

In the study, the simple act of taking a picture caused people to pay closer attention to how much they were eating, how diverse their food choices were, or how healthy the food was. And that extra thought and attention actually helped them eat better"

Fuhh..this is a long entry. Btw, i do agree with this article. Though i don't see the 'slimmer hips' in me after snapping so many photos of foods that i cooked. So, snap you flabs away!!!
