Hello 2012

It was almost 12am, we started hearing some firework sound from outside....

So we quickly ran out from the house and hope that we could see it....

there was a countdown event at Serdang too...

the beautiful night view of Serdang....

firework started~~

here's the end of two O one one....the start of new two O one two.....

new year resolution?

eat well sleep well love well live well... =D

New year's eve cook~

I don't really like joining the crowd at the street or shopping mall and count down for new year....

I had my own way celebrating and welcoming 2012 --> cook at home for my dear family~

Planned a simple menu for the day...

1. mushroom ravioli topped with dill butter sauce

I wanted to make the size of wantan....but accidentally turn it into BIG UFO..... =/

and the pasta sheet.....of cause I made it myself...

first time making it, it came out not bad.... =D

2. chicken and leek pie

this time I bought the ready made puff pastry from Cold Storage....

it's very hard to make puff pastry. I tried before but it didn't turn out well....

3. meatball pasta

I use minced pork for the meatball and then add in caramelized onion, garlic and a dash of red wine...

I stuff the meatball with a bit of bacon and pinch of cream cheese... they add extra flavour in the meatball.... =]

Lastly, came my favourite part of dinner -- dessert!!

4. caramel custard pudding

it's so easy to make, just milk and egg and sugar. I make it like steamed egg..

Yes, I used steamer instead of oven, which lead to shorter cooking time... =]

it still came out very nice...smooth and springy...

dinner was so satisfying~

I am saying both the process of eating and preparation... =D
