Hey it has been soooo long since i posted something here..oh well, what can i say, the world keeps me busy. So many injustices in here, so i was busy making comments about it on my twitter, haha... And i stopped facebook and starting with google plus instead... what an amazing latest trend it is. Thank you google, i can still keep a little bit of my privacy for my close friends and relatives (what privacy? once you are on social media, you are bare naked!)
Lets see, what have i been doing ever since, hmmm.. we went back home to Indonesia, to family. So that parents could see what their métisse grand child look like. And we got the chance to smell the indonesian kretek cigarette (disgusting), and went to climb gunung Agung mountain in Bali (what a precious experiences). Then we went to la rochelle to attend my cousins marriage, she weds a french guy (huh poor girl!). During the party dinner, i had an awekening experience about french food.. i almost forgot how good it was, and being reminded again, hehe.
And lately, instead of recipes testing, i was busy socializing, and raising my kid: busy making her food. I have been making hundred containers of these, composing many ingredients...pfff... but i love cooking for my little lady especially she seems to adore it very very much!
I have been thinking of selling bakso (indonesian meat balls soup), to my friends. I found a fail proof Bakso recipe, and perfected it. I tested it a couple of days ago to my indonesian circle (oh this is so google plus language!), and they told me that they like it a lot! (i am over the moon, my bakso stall will launch soon, haha). Sorry since it has something to do with my future business, i cannot share the recipe here, hihi... I can make Fish Bakso and Meat Bakso.. bye bye stupid looking and funny taste bakso from the past....
Fish Bakso
And yesterday, i was just chating with a friend about the ingredients that i have in my fridge, and then i asked her what to do with it, and she suggest me this sauté food... But i just made it like that, without precise quantities of ingredients.
- Fried Stinky beans (haha...it is actually not that stinky when it is in your plate, but your mouth becomes smelly -just right after you chew it, feel the odour exploses in your mouth- ..and not to mention your...hehehe..toilette..beware beware!).
- Asam sunti (sun dried- sour star fruit alike, common of Aceh province), blended very smoothly. If you don't have this just replace it with tamarind pulp.
- Fried small anchovies
- shallots, crushed
- Chillies thinly sliced
- garlic, crushed
- ginger powder
- Cooking Oil to saute
Directions:
So just like any other indonesian sauté cookings, heat oil in the wok, put your crushed asam sunti, shallots, chilies, garlic and ginger powder together. And after, you put the rest of the ingredients. Et voilà...eat it as a compagnion of white rice!!!
By the way, i made this dish too..Let's see the ingredients, beside the shallots, garlic, and big chillies (to avoid tongue burning when eating it...en effet, big red chillies are not spicy at all!), alongside those mackerel, i put kaffir lime leaves, lemongrass, ginger and galanga. So simpel, so good.
Oh by the way, my mom gave me her easy recipe how to make a good fried shallots! But lets wait for my next post for the recipe.
