Oreo's ice-cream recipe!

My first attempt to make an ice cream. I'm using my new ice cream maker..

Ingredients:

300ml full cream milk

80g sugar

325ml double cream

Oreo's

Place the milk and sugar into a saucepan, low heat. Stir until the sugar has dissolved and then leave until cold. Stir in the double cream. Pour the mixture into the freezer bowl with the paddle running. When the mixture starts to freeze, add the oreo's.

I cannot find the double cream. So I change it to whipping cream. As a result; the ice-cream took more time to freeze and turn less creamy but nevertheless, still delicious! See the pic below... tak sempat nak masuk freezer pun... :D

3/4lb beef burger with cheese?!

Sekarang ni, macam trend pulak kan.. semua fast food zaman Ammal kecik2 dulu, dah ada balik!! Carl's Jr... Wendy's! Yang belum ada lagi cuma White Castle! I've never had the chance to try the White Castle & Wendy's before. As far as I could remember, the only White Castle in KL was somewhere in Chow Kit. At the junction to The Mall (kalau dulu2 Yaohan!). Parking kan susah dekat situ.. so none of my family member willing to take me there... Same goes to Wendy's :(

First time makan Wendy's dekat Sunway Pyramid, Ammal ambik 3/4lb beef burger with cheese. Tamak! Tak habis pun. Kena bungkus, 2 kali ulang makan dekat rumah, baru habis... But it's too oily laaa. Mungkin sebab daging banyak sangat kot?! Dunno... Drink pulak Ammal ambik Twisted Frosty Oreo. Ewwhhh. Dah la banyak minyak. Minum plak lagi yg manis & berlemak. Gumuks.. gumuks... What ever it is, I prefer Carl's Jr more! More variety... less oil:(

Selain dari menantikan kehadiran White Castle, Ammal tunggu Mos Burger!! Have you try it? MOS stands for Mountain, Ocean & Sea...Sedap gilaks! Burger orang Jepun! Ada burger biasa & ada jugak patties yg diapit dengan 2 keping nasi. Fries dia pun besar. Kenyang. Tapi pelik, restaurant dia kat KLCC tuh tutup. Nak kata mahal, mahal Carl's Junior lagi... Masa pergi Tokyo last 2 years, nampak dekat sana restaurant tu, terliur Ammal... Bila redah dalam internet nampak ada kat Singapore. Halal ke? Ishhh nak kena tanya 'Bini Popeye' ni

Then lagi satu.... Grandy's!! Pernah dengar? First outlet was in Subang Parade. Ni pun Ammal suka. Tapi mungkin masa tuh, harga dia mahal kot. So, tutup la jugak fast food kegemaran Ammal yg satu tu. Kalau tengok kat website ni http://www.grandys.com/source/page12.htm menunya pun dah lain.

So, as for now, just hope for the best jer la...

One World Hotel

Last Saturday-9/08/08, was my organisation's annual dinner @ One World Hotel.

As usual, Ammal pilih Chinese food. Selama dah beberapa tahun kerja, baru 2 kali je Ammal ambik makanan Melayu & sekali Vege.

Masa time vege dulu tuh, Ammal tengah mengandung. Ingat lagi... time tu deme buat di Sunway Resort Hotel. Sebelum pilih tuh, review dari kawan2 kata, sedappp... Disebabkan Ammal 'giler' makan sayur especially time2 mengandung jadik terlebih 'giler', maka Ammal pun pilih la Vegetarian food for that year. Tapi punya la hampehhhh!! Dah la kedekut. Portion nasi sket jer waiter tu bagi. Lepas tuh, vege yg Ammal harapkan, cuma ada chick peas & segala mak nenek masakan vege Indian style yang portionnya macam nak bagi 4-5 orang jer makan! Bukan sayuran hijau! Lapor betul laaa time tu. Sejak tuh, tak der nak pilih vege dah. Cukup la :p

Sebenarnya, tempat kerja Ammal ni agak besar, so annual dinner memang kena buat dua kali. Mula-mula ingat nak pergi second night macam last year... ye la, kurang sket protokol ;) Balik pun boleh cepat sket. Tapi this year, second night diorang buat hari Ahad bukan Sabtu macam selalu. Isnin Ammal ada kursus 2 hari. Kena bangun extra awal. So takkan nak ambik second night kan? Meroyan aper?! Terjojol bijik mata ku nanti!

Overall best la. Makanan lain dari yang lain. Selalunya akan ada shark's fin soup. Tapi sebab tahun ni, diorang ada tubuhkan satu kelab/committee yang salah satu antaranya, pasal nak pelihara alam sekitar etc, so soup tahun ni, kami dihidangkan dengan 'Braised sweet corn with crab meat'.
Yang paling Ammal suka menu 'Steamed cod with crunchy bean'. Kalo masak sendiri, mau Ammal hirup gravy nya dari pinggan. Hahaha... Buwok betul perangai! Seb baik mak tak baca blog Ammal nih. Hehehe... Dan satu lagi kelainan, tahun ni tak ada nasi goreng budush. Tau apa nasi goreng budush? Kalo sesapa yg selalu ambik chinese food time dinner sure paham! Nasi goreng tuh, macam nasi goreng cina, tapi isinya hanya ikan bilis yg kecik2 tu atau udang geragau. Nasinya tak ada sebarang rasa!! Tapi tahun ni, kami dihidangkan dengan 'Crispy yee mee with seafood'. Nak kata sedap sangat tu idok ler... tapi much better than the nasi goreng budush!

Entertainer for that night, was someone that I luv since young (eh dah tua ke? Takk arrr... kuang kuang kuang). SHEILA MAJID! Tapi dia tak nyanyi banyak lagu pun. Cuma Sinaran, Antara Anyer & Jakarta, Aku Cinta Padamu, Lagenda & one English song... Sanggup Ammal bertinggung sebelah meja VVIP semata-mata nak rakam Sheila nyanyi! Lenguh pun lenguh la. Demi Sheila... keh keh keh. Luv you Sheila... jerit Ammal dalam hati.
