Cooking Class

Blogging is the order of the day. After I finished jogging, I rushed to the bathroom thinking that I had my “tajwid” class. When I arrived at the “surau” no one was there except 2 other ladies and myself. I called up the teacher and was informed that the class has been cancelled. I went home and started to update my blogs. I was so engrossed with it until I forgot to check the time. When I looked at the clock, it was 1:45pm and I had to attend a cooking class at 2:00pm! When I arrived at the class, the teacher had just started the class and I didn’t really miss much. Thank God. Today’s recipes are spaghetti Bolognese, chocolate caramel cookies, almond raisin bread, and Malaysian yogurt (dadih).

Spaghetti Bolognese

Almond Raisin Bread

Chocolate caramel cookiesDadih

All participants were given a few slices of bread, 9 cookies, and a container of “dadih”. However, the spaghetti was not enough to be taken home so we ate it in the classroom. It was pretty tasty and from now on I can make it for my kids. Danial seems to like spaghetti the most. Usually I made spaghetti sauce with tuna because I couldn’t stand the smell of meat. I found out the trick is to wash the ground meat thoroughly until the meat color turns from red to white. I guess the trace of blood that stinks up the meat!

Goodies we took home

The class ended at 5.30pm. When Steve came to pick me up, Najla came along. She couldn’t wait to get home to taste the cookies so I had to give one to her in the car. She wanted more because “it was soooo good” she said, but I didn’t let her. It looks like I have to bake some soon. This coming weekend, the teacher is going to teach how to make “kek rampai kelapa”, “apam balik”, potato bread, and tropical juice. For those who are interested please call Izad at 013 938 8797 or 013 996 3789. Registration is on a first come first serve basis.
