So honey, I decided to make Oreo Mint Ice Cream Cake for papa. 

Green - mummy's favourite colour too! 

Mint - my favourite flavour!

The ingredients are...
1. Oreo cookies
2. Butter
3. Mint Ice cream
4. Strawberry for decor
and that's all!!!!

*** I decided to use strawberries instead of colourful m&m chocolate(initial plan). Hmmm, choc is too sweet lar... the whole thing i believe is already very sweet liao.

This is how to make it. Seriously very easy lol
no recipe, all cincai agak agak only

1. Prepare the tin. Layered with plastic for easier removal later.
2. Smash the Oreo cookies. 
3. Wet the smashed cookies by adding some butter.
4. Press hard to form a base. Put into the freezer for 10 mins to set. 
5. Pour in the ice cream... minty mint I love it! Leave it in the freezer for at least 3 hours or until the ice cream becomes hard.
6. Repeat & make the middle layer with Golden Oreo Cookies. 
7. Repeat with ice cream again, and leave overnight to fully set. 
8. Decor as you like... yeah done!
9. Transfer to a round plate.
10. Cut with hot knife ^_^

Oreo & butter
If you have zip lock bag... is better
but I prefer use & throw lol
I just anyhow grabbed a bottle and smashed it lol
I don't have a double boiler, so I this is how I melted the butter...
Any a as long as it's heated, it will melt...
See?
Melting butter
Zip lock bag is recommended because the plastic bag material is thicker... u see mine... hahaha
After smashing for a while, the lousy plastic bag pecah already lol
Double layers, continue smashing lol
Add some butter to wet the cookies
Press to form the base
After 10 mins in the freezer

By now, the ice cream were pretty soft already...
Ice cream ice cream
Scoop and layered on the base
Okay... wait... wait... wait...
something really exciting happened in between and I didn't take any picture lol
I called it Fridge Saga lol
《冰箱罢工》

Anyway, after the saga was all over, this was how the cake looked like in the next morning, 4.50am.
I was so happy, God Bless Me!
Drizzle with melted choc bar I found in the fridge, nobody's eating :p
I know it's quite ugly lol
Can't help lorr... cuz I was rushing to go to the school lol
Thank you for fetching me to the checkpoint
honey loveu ^_^
Took mum's lychee
Decorated with some strawberries...

Viola~
Oreo Mint Ice Cream Cake
with lychee & strawberry
Hmmm.... perfect dessert for June hot weather!
Melting ice cream cake

Post mortem.

1. Cannot leave the fruits in the freezer cuz they will turn into hard rock. To eat the fruit, you have no other way but wait for it to defrost lol but by then all the ice cream also totally melted already lol

2. I think can omit the butter when making the cookie base. I feel that the middle layer is better in texture cuz you know what... I used your HL milk to wet it because butter finished already lol the base was too hard, so I blamed the butter.

Last but not least...... 
the ice cream cake was homemade standard 
and it's my first trial
so, mai hiam okay! 

Here's a selfie of your wife today ^_^

So tired... wanna sleep liao~

花开富贵 squid

Honey... today I want to cook something special for daddy~


Squid a.k.a Sotong 

I can't remember which day during the school holiday... I was watching TV with dad. And we saw this lady cooking squid... ermm... it's actually a cooking contest called 邻里厨王. All the contestants were trying to cook the best squid dishes. Unfortunately her dish 《花开富贵》didn't won the contest. But I like her presentation though^_^ 

So, today I'm trying to cook this squid lala~

Can watch the aunty cooking squid here.
https://youtu.be/O6F16x5G_wU
邻里厨王 Episode 5.

Hmmm...
I can't find the big fat squid anyway. So, my flowers are pity small @_@

Ignore the carrot & cucumber 
And, dad suddenly said he wants to go out for mahjong! OMG! I haven't really finish cooking lol 

I knew i couldn't make it in time le... immediately when he said that, i quickly cook the chicken first.

Chicken thighs & chicken wings
I bought this Malays style herb paste from the aunty clerk in my office. The taste really not bad! I dunno what is the name of this dish. Definitely not rendang bah~ Rendang is darker in colour.

She said just marinate the chicken and cook it. Can either fried it, microwave or cook with gravy also can. RM20 for 4 chickens. I have divided the paste into 4 smaller portions and will give a portion to Mong Ting someday later when I meet her again.
After marinated for 30 mins
After a lil bit of garnishing... Tada...
Eat more veggie is good!
Now the squid...
Cut like how the aunty did, boiled it and it will form into blossoming flowers in a split of a second ^_^

Wow so nice ^_^ love them ^_^

I forgot to make ice cube last night, so I omitted the freezing part lol sorry aunty :p
Blossoming flowers squid
Mum said this is 新产品 
哈哈哈
My new supporter lol
This is for mum & dad cuz they are rushing out 
These are ours lol
I thought dad will be really impress with me today as I make something we saw together in the TV and now im bringing it to the table lol 

But he felt so so only perhaps lol
Anyway, he ate a little only cuz he is rushing out lol 

Last dish for today is...
Asparagus suppose to be the main focus lol
Okay post on fb & I want to go nutc again!
Stay tune for daddy's bday cake!

二姐 reminded me just now about the sweating cake last year... I dare not to tell her that this one might be melting as fast too! Hohoho!

Santorini & 徐苏英

老公在玩game. 


在游戏里面, 他是一个贼。
要去打抢一次银行才有10千块钱~ 
他说, 要抢到几时才可以买golf club啊... 

hahaha 笑死我了 ^_^ 

Golf club 应该不便宜啊 哈哈哈


那天他不知怎么了, 一夜之间成了一名超级有钱人!
 有钱到。。。他game里面的财产是不懂十多个位数。都不懂是几千个billions hahaha



开心到他不直买了他的golf club, 还买了一大堆cinema. 我教他, 你要买hotel, 那样才可以赚钱。可是, 他根本都不用赚钱了, 他的财产 (game里面) 根本都用不完了! 跑车一辆接一辆, 买了一辆不见一辆, 不见了再买。



我说啊: 有一天 要是你真的变这么有钱。。。 
你一定不认识我了~

他笑了一下, 说:

有钱啊, 我买一个Santorini给你啊 
哈哈哈 (大笑)

我在心了暗笑 ^_^
还蛮sweet的~

不错。他从不懂Santorini是一个什么鬼地方 
被我常常讲到 现在懂了 ^_^

他想了一下, 说: 徐苏英

Omu-rice

Honey, told you... don't underestimate me lorr...
Omurice
My challenge for today is this ---> Omu-rice ^_^ 
sounds like omelette rice, yes you're right!

Wanted to eat this actually the other day when we went for Ichiban but they don't have @_@

Nahhh... you try type "omurice" on YouTube and you will see a lot of shifuS showing how to make this juicy omelette! I made a conclusion myself after watching a few of the videos, that is you just have to stir and stir very quickly and flip it over very very quickly before it's fully cooked... and it's done! Ohhh thinking of it already make me love it so much!

So, today I'm going to make this omurice, thanks to the leftover rice yesterday lol


So, here are the simple ingredients.
For the omurice, the fried rice i think it's up to own preferrence but if i m not mistake the Japanese cook it with tomato sauce? and there is also a special savory sauce that wil be poured all over on top of the juicy half-cooked omelette but it seems that you don't like it... cause yesterday when i showed you the video u said : 
Eeee... how come so wet? 

So, I assume u don't like the sauce. 
And so, I didn't use that seafood spicy sauce by Amore as in the picture. And I don't have any ingredients at home to make the sauce anyway.

pinky fried rice?
Half way cooking, I m really beh tahan the so called naked and boring fried rice with just some crab meat ONLY? Blame on me, I'm lazy to go out to buy vege & meat @_@ but anyway it's already 3.30 in the evening when i decided to cook this. 
And can you imagine the hot sun out there?

So, I went to dig the ham out from the freezer and yeah i use them straight away hahaha

Frozen ham
Cut it and you still can see the ice
The unfinished fried rice... looks boring isn't it?
Turn off the heat, transfer the rice back to the plate and cook the ham, right from the start,
Love the colour - pinkish!
Cook the ham
Looks like worms?
give it a good stir
Okay, now the fried rice is ready! Look at it... so nice!
take a bowl of rice
transfer it to a plate like this
actually u have to press a bit the rice in the bowl so that it will give u a firm bowl shape, unfortunately this one is loose
the Japanese shaped their fried rice in this way
a bit oval like that

Now.... the omelette \(^_^)/ 
Beat two eggs
Sorry, I can't take any pic after that hahaha

The eggs were all cooked in like 
just 10 seconds?
 WTH!!! 
It's just too fast!!!

And it's fully cooked by the time I realised that and it's already a 
98% cooked omelette 
haihhhh 
Sad, the omelette was not rolling juicy at all @_@
Tried to cut open the omelette and huh, worst ever half-cooked omelette
Time for decoration lalalala...
Honey, remember the chilli sauce from Mac Donald that we ate last night?
Haha here you go...
@_@ no eye see @_@
The pan were preheated too long, i think that's why. And i used medium heat which was obviously too hot for the eggs @_@

Second attempt. 
This time I didn't preheat the pan. In fact it had cooled down after all the decoration time and the camera time and after all those pictures i took... the pan had very much colded down so when I poured in the oil & eggs, with a super low heat (scared that it might get cooked very fast like the first one)...

... this time, it didn't really get cooked @_@!!!
Huh... took about a minute like that for the pan to get heated and then only the egg started to cook. 

But then again... it's so fast and within a few seconds 
it's already a...
95% cooked omelette. 
Sian~
95% cooked omelette frid rice

My third attempt.
After the first and second experience, now I know. 
Preheat the pan and the oil, of course. 
Turn to very low heat, a must. 
Then pour in the beaten eggs and stirrrrrrrrrrr very quickly and flip... 

Sorry, i couldnt flip like a pro hahahahaha
so it becomes like this lol 

Again a 90% cooked omelette~
Anyway, it's the Best of the day!

《注定失败》

Honey, I must admit that I can't make this like a pro 
hahaha
\(^_^)/ Omu-rice \(^_^)/
