Multigrain Loaf Recipe
Suatu hari yang indah, saya terbeli Allinson Country Grain Bread Flour di Morrisons. Tepung tersebut mengandungi wheat flour, malted wheat flakes, malted wheat flour, malted barley flour & rye flour. Katanya malted ingredients are 12% of the product.
Preheat oven to 230'C. Bake for 15 mins, then reduce the temperature to 200'Cand bake for a further 15-20mins until the bread is risen, golden brown & sounds hollow when tapped underneath.
Kak Lia, this post is for you. I don't know how much this helps, especially if you're hoping to see the exact measurement of various flour/grain that goes into the recipe. And I have no idea if Allinson flour range is available in Malaysia..
Di belakang pek tepung tersebut, ada resipi ni. Nampak macam ringkas & mudah |
500g of the flour, 1.5 tsp salt, 1tsp sugar, 15g soft butter, 7g instant yeast & about 300ml warm water |
Tepung+garam+gula+yis+butter. Rub in the butter, add enough water and mix to form soft dough |
Knead the dough for up to 10mins until smooth & elastic |
Place dough in a baking tin, cover & leave to rise for 45mins |
Turn out & cool on a wire rack |

Grocery shopping
It's Sunday. Husband's off to work. No vege in the fridge. Well, if you count lengkuas, kunyit hidup & a sweet potato as vege, then I'll say there're not enough vege in the fridge :)
Benci benciiii. I had to do grocery shopping by myself. DH won't be home until late at night and the shops will close at 5pm today. Ugh. I hate thinking about carrying heavy load for 1km from the store back home. 1km is not that far, but when both hands are full with heavy plastic bags, it does feel like an agonizing 5km walk.
What to do? Make the shortest shopping list - only aim for the items you need badly. I mean, really really important items. The others? Shove them down in another list for the husband to execute tomorrow :P
Mission accomplished!! :D

A wonderful friend has helped to investigate the price of those items in Malaysia. Check out her post here :)

The list on a torn up bank statement envelope |
Ahh. The things I carried home. Not so bad this time |
If you wonder how much do all that cost, the total is 18.78 pounds (about RM 91.44). I have no idea if that's comparable to shopping at Jusco or not |
Mission accomplished!! :D

Jom Makan
@ Westfield London Shopping Centre
Sirap bandung & sirap limau |
Roti canai (instant!!!), kuah dhal lebih kepada rasa dalca. Kurang garam. |
Mee goreng mamak - sedap, tapi rasa mee goreng mamak ada lah dalam 25% kot |
Char koey teow - sedap, tapi sekali lagi rasanya cuma macam koey teow goreng biasa. Tak patut dinamakan char koey teow |
Overall, 3.5/5. Tukdin jugak menang. Jangan persoalkan pinggan licin. Sedap tak sedap, memang akan licin. Hehehe.. |

Westfield London
Finally, I've found a mall almost comparable to a Malaysian shopping mall - in terms of size & store layout :)
Westfield London Shopping centre - nearest tube station: Shepherd's Bush

Inspiration
Untuk mana2 insan yang memerlukan dinner idea yang tak renyah dan siap cepat;
Ginilah keadaannya bila suami tak balik2 walaupun makanan dah lama siap. Sempat la si isteri berfotografi dengan hasil masakan cincai. Dulu rajin la rotate dinner, harini nasi, esok pasta, roast chicken, lepas tu bihun, etc. Sekarang? Nasi nasi nasi nasiiiiiiiiii. Senang nak budget buat bekal lunch keesokan hari.
Daging goreng kunyit, terong balado & sayur |
Kari ayam, sambal telur & sayur goreng |
Ayam goreng kunyit, kari kentang (untuk geng dengan roti naan), sambal ikan bilis & sayur goreng |
Ikan siakap pedas masam & sayur campur |
