Garden of Eden

The place where my memories stay forever.

One little step, a big leap to save our Mother earth.

The lights will stay off for one hour for an event called Earth Hour. The observance is organized by a conservation group, the World Wide Fund for Nature, also known as the World Wildlife Fund.

For the fourth year, people are being urged to turn off their lights for one hour to call attention to the issue of climate change. The group says climate change is one of the greatest threats facing wildlife and nature.

Earth Hour has done a lot to raise awareness of climate change issues. But there’s more to it than switching off lights for one hour once a year. It’s all about giving people a voice on the future of our planet and working together to create a sustainable low carbon future for our planet.

So Please, Do Save Our Mother Earth, The Place Where We Born To Be. . .

Final Fantasy X2
Every FFX2 fans definitely will vote for this songs. This is one of the famous song in this Final Fantasy X2. When the very first time i exposed to this song, it has become one of the permanent song in my play list. I like the way how the singer sing this song. Kumiko Kōda was the singer for this theme and she gained fame for her seventh single, "Real Emotion / 1000 no Kotoba". Currently she is the top pop singer in Japanese. Thanks to this song, now i really get addicted to most of her songs.. -.-"


In the flow of FFX2 storyline, this song appear when Yuna manages to return to the surface and the Gullwings organize a concert to which everyone in Spira is invited, supporters of the Youth League and New Yevon alike. Additionally, the Songstress dressphere worn by Yuna is revealed to be made up of Lenne's memories, resulting in a sphere screen projecting them to everyone in attendance during the concert. Witnessing images of Shuyin and Lenne's last moments, Spira's citizens begin to understand the unproductive nature of their disagreements. The player then learns that it was because of Lenne's memories that Shuyin had mistaken Yuna for Lenne and she had felt affection toward him.


Sweet Sour Pork. . . .
My favourite dishes among all the Chinese Cuisine,
Why i like this dishes, I'm not really sure. But the only little tiny memories that i remembered about this dishes is my grandpa. This is the only dishes that he taught me while he was still with us. . .
All the little tiny single tips about this dishes i still remembered clearly. Every times he cooked , he definitely will compare his dishes with outside food proudly, and also start his life experience stories. . . . . i really miss those precious moments that i spent with my grandpa. .

sweet sour pork, i don't dare to compare mine with my grandpa's. I still never and ever to imitate and able to compare to the original taste. But I'll try my best to make it as perfect as i could and I won't let this recipe went silent in my life.

The only two pictures i took during this Chinese New Year. Since i came here nearly two years, this was the only time that i cook this dishes. It's hard to get all the sufficient ingredient for this dishes here.


Fried Rice. . . .
Fried rice. . . . hmmm . . . cook this while I feel lazy and out of any idea for my meal . Fried rice is the easiest dishes for me, it save up times for you to think what you going to prepare and cook.
While preparing this dishes, the only thing you need to know is go and find all the available cooking ingredients inside your refrigerator. Anything that you like, vegetable, meat, process food and bla bla bla . . .
White rice. Hmmm. normally those overnight rice is better than the fresh cooked rice, because it not sticky and easier to fried.
Prepare the base ingredients like onion and garlic (no ginger please), fried will brown then start "throwing" in the ingredients one by one. Meat/chicken > rice > vegetables > seasoning > done ^^
If all the ingredient well prepared, this dishes spend only 5 - 10 min to finish. Fast easy and simple especially while i'm super duper hungry. ^^
Mix vegetables with some process food - hotdog. .

Looks dark but not salty actually, because dark soy sauce was the only seasoning ingredient i added.

Fried Shark Fin. . . .
I'm not sure whether here got such dishes or not . Because i remembered while i 1stly introduce it to my friends at here, The very first comment and response from them were,"Har !? Fried Shark Fin ? are you serious? i thought it only cook in soup. How it tastes like ? "
I'm quite surprise while hearing that and really don't know how to explain at that time..... -.-"

Yes, I'm serious fried shark fin, it is a famous food in my hometown - Sibu or should i say famous in east Malaysia. It taste just gorgeous, the shark fin fried with grounded pork, egg, little green onion and also others ingredients like mushroom, onionSSSS and bla bla bla . . . (omg. . . start mouth watering...****)

About the method, precook the grounded meat and mushroom. After that, all the ingredients including precook materials all mixed into the egg (of cause shark fin is the most important one ^^) , mix well with some sesame oil and salt added (never ever add chicken stock or other strong seasoning stuff. It will spoil the original taste).
All the put in the non stick pan fried until dry. ( a little like fried Mee).

The one that i cooked while I'm still at my hometown.

and this!!!! while I'm celebrated my Chinese New Year in Cheras for year 2010 with my fellow friends. .

Drato Cheesecake. (Drato - the name come from the combination of Dragon fruit and Toufu)
Food Processing and Preservation assignment . . .

This product really did kill up tonnes of my brain cells. Total of 4 failed demo and finally came with such idea.
30% of total cream cheese had been substituted by toufu. (Soft toufu that can easily get from hypermarket.)
The red liquid jammy part is the dragon fruit jam. Mashed Dragon fruit flesh and juice boiled with medium heat until it turn sticky. ( -.-" spent nearly one hour on this stupid jam and only get not even more than 300ml of jam . . . Zzz . by the way, the taste was quite awesome ^^)
Oh ya . . back to the drato. The bottom part actually was the jelly. Just the normal low sugar jelly. It acted as the replacement for the super duper fatty butter biscuit base. ( although it taste nice, but IT JUST TOO FAT!!!!)
Hmmm.. for the baking process, it just like normal cheesecake. nothing special actually. Follow exactly the same cheesecake baking method and just only do some little changes in the ingredients. ^^ that's all...

Here's the picture that we present during our presentation day.

Red rice...... Try not to be surprising when I'm saying that, that's not the brown rice but just an ordinary white rice. . . .
In this rice, some traditional red vinasse had been added while cooking the rice. Some seaweeds were added too to bring out and create rich flavour.
For the rice part, actually it was a fried rice, some squids, onion and garlic were added in but not the egg. Because this will make the rice become roughly looks.... ( i don't like it -.- )
Side dishes...
Hmmmm.......
bottom left - Fried chicken
Upper left - Fried hard toufu
Upper right - Obviously it was a vege -.-"

Surprising this dishes didn't taste as heavy as you all thought. Because i reduced most of seasoning ingredient like salts, peppers n bla bla bla~ ~
I used the most original flavour from chicken and toufu and of cause tiny little pinchy of salt or else it definitely will be tasteless...

Chocolate flakes Vanilla cheesecake..
I baked this few month ago while I'm still having my lovely holiday at my hometown.
Chocolate flakes Vanilla cheesecake, i removed most of the original flavouring ingredients from the original recipe which contents lemon, choco chips, choco flouvaring and also the colourful little choco decoration.
In this cake, only cream cheese, butter, sugar, vanilla flavouring, black and white choco bars were used.
The fun part of this cheesecake was creating the snow flakes looking of choco on the top of the cheesecake. The choco bars were chilled in the refrigerator before used to make the choco flakes. When the choco bars were harden, use the peeling tools (the one use to peel the vegetable and fruit skin) to scratch the choco bar and create the small little choco pieces on the cheese cake and of cause in this cheesecake i mixed with tonnes of choco chunks instead of choco chips which give much better choco taste.

Cheese cake . . .
There was two years ago when my sister-in-law brought back the recipe from UK.
I still remembered the very first time i touched on cheese cake baking . It was a full new experience to me and 'unfortunately' I get addicted to it. I love cheesecake,I have to say that cheesecake is comfort food for me. I love it. Its rich and decadant taste.
Actually cheesecake consider quite an easy baking cake if compare to other spongy cake. It only need to get the correct ingredients ration mix all together, whip it, bake it, decorate it and chill it, that's all. . .
One of my cheesecake picture. This cheesecake is a homemade version as it was requested by my friend's colleague for her little daughter birthday, i modified the original lemon cheesecake and turn in into digestive biscuit Oreo cheesecake. It came with rich digestive biscuit taste and of cause with little bit of sweet sour lemon taste since it originated from lemon cheesecake.
Half way of the decoration, (yellow part-crushed digestive biscut, black part-crushed Oreo biscuit)


After finish ^^(red part - cranberries with some almond nuts)

I would like to call this Homemade Nasi Goreng Pattaya in Chinese style^^

This is the my favourite food picture among all the foods that i had taken.
Ok, about this recipe, actually it's quite similar to original Mamak's style. However, hmmm for those who knows me well, definitely know what I'm going to do on this recipe. nyahahaha. Adding tonnes of non-related ingredient to original recipe while doing my cooking is my habit ^^. Hopefully for those who tried my homemade recipe won't turn their house washroom become their 2nd shelter. bwahaha. .

Fried rice - Rice with some ikan bilis and squids. Of coz with some fried onion and also the pork oil (since i'm turning this recipe into chinese style.^^)
Fried egg - beat the egg and fry it in non-stick frying pan. (if you are free, can try this out. Before the egg is fully cook, add in the fried rice which done earlier, and try to cover it up with the egg.*egg-pepper, salt and some sesame was added for seasoning**

I haven't name this "accident"dishes.
Actually it was an accident or should i call it a failure product.
This dishes supposingly to be the traditional red wine chicken soup(kinda heavy taste), but after i added in tonnes of "strangers" (potatoes, toufu, vege and bla bla bla) which shouldn't exist in this recipe, the original red wine chicken taste was totally mess up ~.~ However, surprisingly it turned up become kinda light taste and delicious food.

Here it comes the picture.

Top layer of this dishes was the toufu with some green onion (leeks). 2nd layer was the chicken drumstick followed by some fishballs and cucumbers. At the bottom layer was the potatoes. Only some red wine and salts were added as seasoning purpose. For the cooking method, after arrange all the ingredients layers by layers, everything will be steam for around 30mins and at last, Easy, tasty and healthy food is ready. ^^

0800 morning class. . .
I bet no one will like such an early class.
I wish UCSI education system will cancel out all 0800 classes and make it into 1100 or afternoon.
If this really do happen, i willing to die for my school.(but this will never ever happen during my Uni life. So sad!)
Why class must starts at 0800 ? ? ?
Normally people will say that,"okie guys, morning with refreshing mind, this will help u in ur whole day study."
Btw, is it true???
i think most of student will fall asleep during this time.
Their brain still stick with their dreamland series which always "to be continue"
or some of them might til having little whitey blanky mind even though their body in class, but sadly their mind still at no where. .
Although, i complain, but i still need to attend the 0800 class. T.T

Anyway, Good Morning to everything..... (0800 class.. oh no. . !!!!)

If I didn't ever start the blog, i might not find that Blogging actually is quite a fun activity to kill up all my spare times.(hopefully it only kills up beside all my SPARE times but not other times. ^^)

Actually i had stuck here quite a long time because i really got no idea what I'm going to split out and fill up the white blank here.
