Sweet Fragrant Wheat (Gandum) Porridge

Are you having the same breakfast beverages such as Milo, milk, coffee, tea, etc over and over again?  Instead, why not prepare a healthy breakfast porridge for your family?  It's Wheat Porridge and it's simple and yummy.  In order to have a very sweet aroma of wheat porridge, you need to add lots of pandan leaves (screwpine leaves).  Adding pandan leaves into your wheat porridge is a MUST.  Without it, it's like eating nasi lemak without the sambal!

Ingredients : (depending on individual's preferences and to taste)

- 1 cup wheat (washed and soaked overnight)

- 100ml santan/coconut milk (I used ready packed)

- 2.5 litres water

- 1 bunch of pandan leaves (washed, slit the leaves in the centre and knotted)

- sugar (to taste)

- a dash of salt (to taste)

Method :

1)  Fill water in a pot and add drained wheat.

2)  Boil over high heat for 20 minutes. 

3) Then, lower the heat, add pandan leaves and slow boil for another 1 hour or until the wheat is cooked and expanded.  

3)  Should you need to add extra water in between, be advised to add only hot boiling water.

4)  Add sugar and simmer for a while.

5)  Lastly, add santan and keep stirring.  Season with a dash of salt.

6)  Serve hot.

Hope you enjoy this simple breakfast :)

Chinese Cabbage Egg Miso Soup (Meatless Recipe)

I like Chinese Cabbage, be it stir fried, braised or soup and will never get bored eating it everyday!  Chinese cabbage is very refreshing especially if you make it into soup.  For this recipe, it's a meatless soup and I omitted anchovies stock and meat.  Hence, I added miso into it.  It's very refreshing and I had it for lunch; just the soup only and without any rice or noodles.  You can add fish balls, prawns, meat or any ingredients that come to your mind.  

Ingredients :

- 1 small Chinese cabbage (washed and cut)

- 3 dried mushrooms (soaked and sliced)

- 1/2 carrot (shredded)

- 1/2 tbsp Chinese Wolfberries/goji berries (washed)

- 2 eggs (beaten)

- 1 thumbsized ginger (crushed)

- 3 cloves garlic (chopped)

- enough water for the soup

- 1 tbsp oil

Seasonings : (to taste)

- 1 tbsp miso

- a dash of salt

- soy sauce

- pepper

Method :

1)  Heat oil in a wok and saute ginger and garlic until aromatic.

2)  Add Chinese cabbage, mushrooms and carrots.  Stir and mix well.

3)  Add water.  Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.

4)  Pour in beaten egg.  Gently stir it.

5)  Lower the heat to medium low. Add miso and Chinese Wolfberries.  Stir and mix well.

6)  Season with salt, soy sauce and pepper.

7)  Serve hot.

Simple, healthy and refreshing soup for your family

Do enjoy :)

Simple Sweet Fragrant Omelette

This is a very simple and healthy breakfast which my children like it.  As long as it's not plain bread with jam and butter, they will be grinning from ear to ear. It could be anything; sandwich or just omelette.  We have half-boiled free ranged chicken eggs almost every morning too and they are more or less being 'forced' to eat!  So this type of simple omelette for breakfast is enough to bring smiles to their faces as they know that they would not be able to have any homemade bread, cakes, cookies or buns from their mummy.  Sigh.... I think it's high time for me take up simple baking...:) 

Simple but healthy breakfast consists of simple omelette with barley green beans dessert

Ingredients :

- 6 eggs (beaten and mixed with seasonings)

- 3 cheesy hot dogs (sliced)

- 1 big tomatoes (sliced)

- 1 big onions (chopped)

- some fresh basil

- some butter for frying

Seasonings : (to taste)

- salt

- pepper

- soy sauce

Method :

1)  Heat butter in a pan or wok.  I used happy call pan.

2)  Saute onions and hot dogs until fragrant and spread it evenly all over the pan.

3)  Pour in beaten egg and cover the lid.

4)  Cook over slow medium heat.  When the omelette is semi-cooked, add tomato and basil.

5)  Slow cook both sides until slightly brown.

6)  Dish out and serve immediately with tomato sauce.

It's quick, easy and simple breakfast!
