Finally

This is bad, random updates on this blog is not good but it does not mean I have stopped cooking nor try out new foods or eating places. Time has not been on our side in terms of work commitments and business.

We are now in the month of Ramadhan, so coming up with different dishes everyday has always been a challenge. However, working hours are less which gives me time to relax a bit and contemplate what to make for Iftar.

For the past week we've had different themes ~ from Indian (briyani), Italian (spaghetti bolognaise and baked macaroni & cheese), British (mashed potatoes with home-made fish fingers, prawns and button mushrooms deep-fried in breadcrumbs), Malay (nasi lemak) and Thai (pineapple fried rice and green curry chicken). Unfortunately, with a day's fasting comes hungry empty stomachs. We were too busy tucking in to our food we didn't even think about taking pictures.

I'm taking the day off today. WeetaBiX offered to make roast chicken, with roast potatoes and pumpkin. Yum! He's doing the prep now....the smell of fresh rosemary lingering.....

Tomorrow's theme is Mexican ~ tacos. The beef is already cooked and best left overnight for the spices to infuse. Since I'm off beef, I have some chicken strips marinated in fajita seasoning, ready to be fried.

Ok, will make sure there will be pictures of today's meal posted later today :). 'Til then wishing all our Muslim friends Selamat Berpuasa.
