Cooking and Singing
This is a proper post.
Friday Night I went to Hazim's place to help out with MASOC food preperation. The ingredients of the sandwhices were beef (It was the best beef I ever tasted in Birmingham), lettuce and mayonnaise. It was not part of my plan (I was only to cook for dinner in exchange for using the internet for 2 gb downloads) but I help them anyways since I will be part of the MASOC committee. It is not a betrayal as far as I believe. Anyone who thinks so need their brain reboot.
What did I cooked? Butter Milk Chicken and Mutiara prawn.
ButterMilk Chicken
This dish was taught by Hanif and he was taught by Hazmy. The ingredients:
It took me more than an hour to fried the chicken. I was nervous but pretended not to. Why would you be nervous? Its electrical cooker for heaven sake.
Next time I will fried the chicken before bringing them to Hazim. From now onwards, bold sentences indicates something is learned.
When I cook, I prefer to do things on my own. Having control over all the ingredients, dominating the kitchen until the food is completed. However that night, three gentlemen insisted on helping me. Marcus, Wai Khin and William. I could not refused their help after the sixth or seventh persuasion.
Mutiara Shrimp
I learned to cook this dish from a cooking book my mom gave me. It was actually meant for chicken or beef but I decided to use shrimp instead.
Ingredient A
Turmeric Powder (You can buy this powder in China Town)
Dark Soya Sauce
Shallot (Again available in China Town. This small thing, smaller than garlic is expensive)
Garlic
Lemon Grass (Available in China Town)
Shrimps (Tesco)
Ingredient B
Shallot
Garlic
Lemon Grass
Calamansi
Sugar (I cant find palm sugar so replace it with this instead)
Honey
Dark Soya Sauce
Chili boh
Surprisingly my first attempt with this dish was successful. The food was well received. I found it good myself. I am not boasting, its the truth. I wonder if I could ever replicate this success next time?
After the dinner, we did some random stuffs. The most memorable was

Electric cooker = Electrical bills

Sing Star!!!
Hazim and Marcus on 'stupid' duet.
Nadir and William
Nadir and William
I have to admit that Hazim is super good at singstar. He either get a Singstar or lead singer ranking. It is amazing coming from someone who doesn't look like a singer. : ) William ranked us according to our ability:
Hazim
Me
Wai Khin
Nadir
Marcus
William
Me
Wai Khin
Nadir
Marcus

Any Asian game programmers up for this challenge? Making malay and chinese sing star. Guarantee popular. I will buy the game if there is one. In fact, any karaoke addict will buy that game if it is develop. I want tiada lagi tangisan in the default song lists and Ilhamku.
I need a branded HDTV. Any givers? The cheapest is 199 quids. That is samsung. You can by this from argos. I prefer Sony because it compliments my PS3. So rich person out there who is reading this blog, if you are thinking of doing some act of random kindness, will you be kind enough to give me Sony HDTV? Am not joking, I seriously need a hdtv. My PS3 collects dust if not connect to HDTV.
It would be inappropriate to request this as a birthday gift, but if anyone considering this as a birthday gift, it will be the best birthday gift so far in my life!!! Ok...why would anyone want to buy a HDTV for me anyways? iatahbah. But there is no harm in saying it right? There is a probability that I'll be organizing a small makan for my birthday. My birthday falls on Monday. Who got mood to attend something on Monday anyways? Sigh.
Should I got for the Aston rag week? The individual ticket sold out. Week pass is 16 quids. : (
I haven't decided on my trip to London with the AHKS society. It would be fun travelling with Melody and Michael. I can't spend blindly these days knowing that my allowance is reduced to only 200 ++ pound per month.
My financial plan for next week:
1. Join Spanish Society 5 quids
2. Join Legolas underlings@Archery 7 quids
3. Join Aikido Ei Men Kan Dojo in Northfield 40 quids. (Should I just wait December to come? I missed two beginners lesson for this month, which leaves me with 6 lessons. When I did the math, each lesson cost about 5 pounds. So if I decide to join this Tuesday class, it should cost me 30 quids.)
4. Pay for the London trip. (Still considering.)
Atm, I am bidding for a Sony TV. Chances are I will lose this bid. Already spend 35 quids for this 'sort of bidding'. I want to share with you the website, but that would mean more competitors and I don't like competitors in a situation where wining is not certain. Stalker in facebook should have an idea the name of the website because I did wrote it on my status. I just hate it when people don't give up. Now its already 80 quids. I should concentrate at this bidding. Am not gonna let my 35 quids go to waste. I'll be back with another proper post on Malaysian Nottingham games. Till next time.
Have a nice day.
