Resep dalam Bhs Indonesia ada di bagian bawah

Selam........ 
Merhaba from Türkiye 👋 

Indonesia has many....probably hundreds of variants of snacks. Start from traditional snacks e.g many kinds of kueh basah (literally means wet / moist snacks), fried snacks (in Indonesian call gorengan) and other type of jajanan (snacks) mostly known as street food/ snack; for example batagor, siomay, kerak telur and more. 
Kueh basah are more often steamed than baked and normally have a sweet taste, but some are savory as well. But not all of them using a steamed method, named kue basah mostly because they are moist. 

Just like what İ want to share today. İt's including in kue basah- calls "Bolu kukus mekar". İt's a cup cake-like, cooked by steam process instead of bake in oven.  We call it "Bolu Kukus Mekar" in Indonesian language. Bolu means cake, Kukus= Steamed and "Mekar" means blooming like a flower. 
As you can see on my pictures here the steamed cup cake has crack surface like blooming.
This is also one of Indonesian traditional snack that been exist from long time ago.

Resep dalam Bhs Indonesia ada di bagian bawah

Selam everybody ...... Merhaba from Türkiye 👋

İf you are my page's regular reader... you should probably know that I cook Indonesian and Asian cook more than Turkish food. 
Yep... daily I serve my mixed family with variant cuisine mostly Turkish food and Indonesian / Asian. Even not every day I eat Indonesian food but at least Asian spice always on my menu.
My kid enjoys both Indonesian/ Asian cuisine as much as Turkish food.

My husband still prefers Turkish food as main dish. Also, he starts to enjoy some Indonesian snacks or "kueh", Indonesian cookies that he never knew before, or some beverages.
He likes  tofu and tempeh as well😊 

And today I will share one of my repeatable menu. İt's Kung pao Chicken... my fave! Maybe some of you think that cooking Asian food is complicated. And seeing long list of ingredients might discouraged you.
But actually, once you get all your ingredients on the table, cooking Asian food is very fast, quick and flavorful- you gonna love it and enjoy the food instantly.

HOW TO MAKE PERFECT SHAPE HOMEMADE BURGER BUNS

RESEP DALAM BHS INDONESİA ADA Dİ BAGİAN BAWAH

Hello everybody.......

Merhaba from Türkiye 👋

Baking bread is an almost daily routine for me. Any kind of bread, Asian style soft bread until artisan European style bread with chewy texture cause my husband is a bread eater. 

My kid, she enjoys everything. She can enjoy food from my culture as much as she likes Turkish food.

Me as Asian, mostly consume rice or noodle but of course, I can not resist hearty warm delicious soup with warm bread in chill days 😍

And since she started school a few years ago, baking burger bun is become my routine for her lunch box or sometimes for the fathers too.

And just today I want to share also with you since I have documented in pictures this time. This recipe I use for few years already and it works for me and turns into nice beautiful buns just like storebought.

You can check my other Bread recipe at Bread/ Bun category.

For you who never bake bread or bun before this recipe might be very easy for you to start. Here I make my own burger rings to get nice shape when it bakes but of course it's optional for you. İf you bake your own buns very often this ring pretty much help. You can get it ready at baking store but I prefer make them by my self.

Resep dalam Bhs Indonesia ada dibagian bawah

Merhaba from Türkiye everybody 👋........... Selam.

You may agree that chicken is the cheapest protein source that we cook and eat daily. 
Same here at my house, my kid, and I love chicken so much.
Please check my chicken/poultry category if you want to know my various recipes cooking with chicken/ poultry in many styles; Turkish, Asian, Indonesian, or worldwide.

I like my chicken in many ways. Fry, grill, in soup or stew. For you who always looking for idea for kid's lunch box, you should try my homemade chicken nugget, or my cheese chicken balls, or Indonesian "kaki naga" .

And for my today post, İ am going to share my new fave Spicy Plum sauce Chicken. The sweet and sour in this recipe remind me of sweet and sour chicken, but it's deliciously different.

Maybe you remember previously I'd shared my homemade plum sauce. Beside soy sauce and kecap manis (sweet soy sauce), plum sauce is one of my staple sauce in my pantry.
So if you are Asian food lover... you should have that sauce also in your pantry. You will ready anytime whenever you have Asian food party 😍

Fırın Sütlaç or baked rice pudding, is one famous traditional dessert from Turkey. Served much better after keeping in the fridge to develop the texture and taste.

Some recipes can vary from one cookbook to another. Some people may add cornstarch or rice flour to their recipe. And mostly we use damla sakızı or mastic gum for this dessert. You can check my previous post for version using mastic gum here.

Another type of  Sütlaç is nonbake, but both are just great. Try it and I believe your family will like it as well.

LONTONG KIKIL KHAS SURABAYA / INDONESIAN FOOD; COW FOOT (trotters) SOUP

Please Scroll down For Recipe in English.

Assalamu'alaykum.........Merhaba dari Türki semuanya 👋

Apa kabar semuanya? ... Semoga dalam keadaan sehat dan berbahagia ya. Juga saya ingin ucapan selamat menunaikan İbadah puasa ya bagi teman muslim sekalian. 

Ramadhan tahun ini msh jatuh di musim panas, tp udah bergeser ke bulan Mei yang hawanya tidak terlalu panas... karena mungkin masih deket-deket musim semi ya. 
10 thn lalu, Ramadhan pertama saya di Turki jatuh bulan Agustus, puncak musim panas yg panasnya bisa sampai 42℃ diluar rumah. 
Puasa hari ini dimulai saat fajr pukul 03.41 pagi dan iftar nanti inshaallah pkl 20.30 malam. Jadi praktis kita berpuasa 17 jam . Tiap hari ada pergeseran waktu 1 atau 2 menit  waktu puasanya menjadi lebih lama.
Tadi pas ke pasar pukul 1 siang suhu diluar 30℃, tapi angin masih lumayan sepoi jadi tak terlalu panas.

Sebenarnya kalau Ramadhan saya cenderung malas makan, maunya buka cuman dengan minuman yang segar saja..sudah terasa kenyang. Tapi kan harus makan ya buat energi siang hari. Jadi saya masak kesukaan saya saja biar nafsu makan ada 😊 . İtupun saya makannya habis sholat İsya' jam 12 malam gitu deh.
Jadilah saya masak Lontong kikil ini, kebetulan anak sayapun suka, sampai mau nambah-nambah kalau makan 😤. 

Karena saya asli surabaya jadi saya bikin lontong kikil ini yang khas Surabaya ya. Tapi memang masakan kikil yang terkenal ya dari Surabaya ya.

Lontongnya saya bikin malam sebelumnya. Untuk yang ingin tahu bagaimana cara membuat lontong pakai magic com bisa dilihat di link ini ya. Tapi saya kali ini bikin lontongnya gak paka magic com, tapi pakai plastik saja. 

Yuuk..yang pengen wisata kuliner khas Surabaya di rumah silahkan coba resep lontong kikil Surabaya a la saya, dijamin ketagihan deh 😚

Ramadhan Mübarek for you my friends who celebrating Ramadan feast this month. Wishing you and your family a blessed and joyful Ramadhan.... May Allah accept all your prayers in this holy month.

Ramadhan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, and the month in which the Quran was revealed to the Islamic prophet Muhammad. Fasting during the month of Ramadan is one of the Five Pillars of Islam. The month is spent by Muslims fasting during the daylight hours from dawn to sunset.

During Ramadan, two main meal are served. İftar, is the meal to break the fast after sunset. Typically, people will enjoy dates, dried apricots and Ramadan juices, before heading to evening prayer.
And Suhoor is a meal taken just before sunrise (the fajr), before the day of fasting starts.

Ramadan is known for its wide variety of irresistible meals as an iftar. And it cannot be completed without having dessert or sweets. I know, in Ramadhan we should prepare our body and soul more on ibadah than cooking but as a mother we should also provide our family with good quality of food during Ramadhan.
