It’s so convenient nowadays. You can prepare a good meal with all the convenient stuff sold in supermarket. (good for lazy people like me..blek).       I cooked a simple dinner yesterday night. I’m preparing stuff for my spaghetti bolognese here. Got the tomato puree with herbs well-packed in a bottle, specially for spaghetti. A packet of mussel, a pack of minced chicken meat and a packet of spaghetti. Got it all from the supermarket.

these are all the ingredients

Ingredients:-

1 packet of mussel

1 packet of minced chicken – any brand

1 packet of spaghetti – any brand

1 bottle of  tomato puree (specially for bolognese) – any brand

2 shallot – minced

Method (a brief one) :-

1) Heat 2 tablespoon oil on pan

2) Brown minced shallot then add in the packet of minced chicken. Stir-fry till brown.

3) Add in 3/4 of the 750g (bottle) sauce into the pan. Add in water as desired.

Slowly boil & stir it well for around 10-15 minutes. If its too dry, do add water.

4) While waiting the sauce to cook; boil the mussel & noodles till its cooked. Make sure you have enough water to boil the noodles. (water must cover up noodles)

5) Ready to be serve.

taaa daahh….this is how it looks

a closer view

Hubby’s comment:- Nice…but abit dry. Can still improve.

Mummy’s comment:- Should add in some fresh tomatoes & tomato sauce for the extra taste.

Puasa or fasting has began 2 weeks;  just before the actual day of Hari Raya which falls on 10th September 2010. It is compulsory for the Muslims to fast for a month. During the entire fasting month you can get assorted Malay delicacies sold in Pasar Ramadan. Example; cooked dishes, wide range of kuih muih, noodles and assorted rice. For those who are on business, they will normally set up their stalls by 4pm and closes at ‘waktu berbuka puasa’; about 7pm.

As for me, I do look forward to join in the fun on the pasar ramadhan. Because I can get huge range of food under 1 roof. 😉

Here are the food I managed to try.

roti jala

ikan bakar

murtabak

cakes

I wish all my fellow Muslim friends, SELAMAT BERPUASA!!  🙂
