have u ever heard of anzac biscuit?
taa-daa..introducing
ANZAC BISCUIT!

information from Wikipedia: ANZAC Biscuits are a sweet biscuit popular in Australia and New Zealand, made using rolled oats, flour, coconut, sugar, butter, golden syrup, bicarbonate of soda and boiling water. Anzac biscuits have long been associated with the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) established in World War I. The biscuits were often sent to loved ones abroad because the ingredients do not spoil easily and the biscuits kept well during naval transportation.

the idea of baking anzac biscuit came about, when we (ben, milia, ah meng, ah yau and i) went for kopi botol. kopi botol is the speciality in one of the coffee shop in town, kopi muzium. you will never find kopi botol in their menu. you need to be their loyal customer to know that they serve kopi botol. well, basically, it's just sweet-black kampung coffee. nothing special..but we like. =)

before entering the oven

ok, back to my anzac biscuit. while having kopi botol, we feel like eating something. as we did not want anything heavy, we ordered anzac biscuit. and it cost RM3 per piece, which i think was very expensive for a piece of biscuit.

fresh from the oven

so i searched the recipe for the biscuit and it is actually very very easy to make, healthy (because of the raisins and oats- source of dietary fiber and antioxidants too) and taste good. dad said, i shall sell it at RM1.50 per piece. hehe.. here's the recipe:

1 cup of flour
1 cup of rolled oats
1 cup of desiccated coconut
1 cup of brown sugar
1/2 cup of raisins (i modified the original recipe ;p)
125 g of butter
2 tablespoons of golden syrup or honey
1 tablespoon of water
1/2 teaspoon of baking soda

1. pre- heat oven.
2. mix the flour, oats, coconut, brown sugar and raisins in a big bowl.
3. melt the butter in a saucepan. add in golden sugar followed by water and baking soda.
4. pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients.
5. mix them thoroughly.
6. place a walnut size of dough onto the baking tray (lined with grease paper) and flatten them with you thumb or spoon.
7. bake at 150 C for 15 mins or until they turn brown.
8. biscuit will harden when cool.

it's been a while since i last update. because of my busyness and laziness, i didnt get to tell of my story.. many things had happened within this month.

**********

bunie was back in KK for a few days, though we didnt get to chat as much, because she's busy organizing her niece's birthday party, but it's good that we got the chance to meet.

yunie, me, ah meng and bunie

**********

we celebrated mom's birthday a few days earlier because dad and milia will be flying off for holiday. this time, we went to Winner Hotel Restaurant (again..). looks like this restaurant is already in our common-place list. =)


and after the heavy dinner, everyone was full and no more space for any dessert. but, roddy, ben and i still feel that we should have birthday cake for mom. so, we went to the cake shop and get 3 slices of birthday cakes for mom.

mom will be forever young..

the three candles represent:
good health, happiness and prosperity.

BLESSED BIRTHDAY MOM!

**********

i went to my ex-classmate wedding.

happy wedding, marziah and nazri!

**********

my ex-coursemate was in KK for holiday. as promised, i brought him around town, trying the foods that we have in KK. and causing me to be off my diet plan again. hmm..

oh ya, i visited the zoo, which i think if it's not because that i have to bring him there, surely the zoo that we have here, will still be a place where i've never been. ;p

**********

it's a good month after all.
