【印尼碎碎鸡】Ayam Penyet

 

印尼饭菜里我最喜欢吃的就是这款碎碎鸡饭了，没有之二。它有着所有我喜欢的东南亚元素，香辣美味，加上我喜欢的炸豆腐和炸丹贝和清爽的沙拉，完全满足了我的味蕾和胃。

平时我都是到离家半个小时车程的印尼超市买费城过来的碎碎鸡饭盒，刚好豆果美食上我有个可爱的粉丝让我写这款碎碎鸡的食谱，要求了快一年了。刚好这周做了一批芭蕉叶丹贝，就做一次碎碎鸡吧！

Nasi Ayam Penyet is my absolute favourite Indonesian dish, which is second to none. It has all the Southeast Asian elements that I liked. Spicy and savory, together with my favorite fried tofu and tempeh, and a refreshing salad on the side. It is a complete satisfying meal to the taste buds and the stomach.

I usually get my Ayam Penyet fix from an Indonesian supermarket half an hour away from home. It just so happens that I have a lovely fan from a China cooking app that has been asking me to write a recipe on Ayam Penyet for almost a year now. 

Since I just made a batch of Tempeh this week, it is a good time to make this Ayam Penyet since the side is ready. And a good chance to crossout one of my to do list.

【奶油马铃薯浓汤】Cream of Potato Soup

 

前不久做了蒜香黄油，抹到面包上烤香了真好吃，再做一个浓汤，就是周末最好的早午餐啦！

俊宝尤其喜欢，他现在能吃一口气吃四五块蒜香面包呢！

I made some garlic butter spread not long ago, it makes delicious garlic bread, goes well with creamy soup and is the best brunch over the weekend!

HOW TO MAKE BANANA LEAF TEMPEH【芭蕉叶丹贝制作】

I love tempeh as a side dish for rice dishes and have been making tempeh at home pretty frequently. I normally make my tempeh in  zipped lock bags or clean plastic bags. 

I have been wanting to make my tempeh wrapping in banana leaves, as banana leaves contain polyphenol compounds, as contained in tea leaves. Due to the polyphenols, banana leaves produce a distinctive taste and aroma in tempeh.

Besides, I am all for a much more environmental friendly options any time!

我很喜欢吃丹贝且经常在家制作，我通常用干净的塑料袋制作丹贝，也一直想着要用香蕉叶包裹制作丹贝。

香蕉叶不仅含有茶多酚化，能让丹贝产生独特的味道和香气，也更环保，真是一举两得。

【玉米面豆沙包】Corn Meal Adzuki Bean Paste Steamed Buns

我经常在家里做红豆包，是个很方便的早点和点心，自己做的也可以按喜好调整甜度，没有买来的齁甜, 今天做的这款豆沙包面皮加了玉米面，成品带有玉米香，更好吃！

I make Adzuki bean steamed buns a lot for breakfast, I liked that it is healthy and I could make it less sweet compared to the shop bought version, today I make a batch adding Corn Meal to the Skin dough, it turned out to be so fragrance and a lot more nutritious for sure.

Steamed Kaya （Steamed Coconut Egg Jam) 【蒸法咖椰/椰子酱】

I have made several kaya recipes with different methods, some takes longer time than others. One of the recipes even require standing in front of the stove and stir for hours.

The kaya I made today is made by the steaming method. It turned out legitimate, and I am loving the end result.

我做过好几款咖椰/咖央，做都比较耗时，有的还需要站在炉子前搅拌很长时间，今天做的咖椰用了蒸法制作，出来的效果很好，蛋香浓郁。

Ayam masak merah & Nasi tomato 【马来红炒鸡块&番茄香饭】

Ayam masak merah ('red-cooked chicken' in Malay) is a Malaysian chicken dish, cooked in spicy red chili sauce. It is often paired with tomato rice – a type of savory rice cooked with tomato paste, milk, dried spices. The duo is in my opinion, the best combo and hits the spot whenever I crave for some Malaysian dishes.

I made a batch of Homemade Tomato Paste last year with the last harvest of the tomatoes from my backyard.  I use it to make both the Ayam Masak Merah and Tomato rice and it turned out so well. You can also use the shop bought tomato paste, it will taste just as good, I promise.

Ayam masak merah（马来语中的“红炒鸡块”）是一款用辣椒酱烹制的鸡肉料理，和番茄焖饭搭配食用。在我看来，这个组合是我想吃马来美食时的最佳选择，香辣又饱腹，感觉就像回到家乡了一样。

去年秋末我把我家后院最后收获的西红柿用来做了几瓶番茄酱。 今天用它来制作 Ayam Masak Merah 和番茄焖饭，效果非常好。 你也可以用市售的番茄酱，味道差别不会太大。

天气开始渐渐变暖，又是到了可以做冰凉甜点的时候啦。。。这款星空冰粉我想做很久了，成品真的很惊艳呢！

儿子说：“ 妈咪这款甜点真的让高级餐厅的甜点看起来就在骗钱呢！” 我可爱的儿子为了赞赏鼓励妈咪真的是花了不少心思呢！☺

The weather is starting to warm up a little, and it feels like it is time to make some cooking desserts again. . . 

I have been wanting to make this beautiful ice jelly dessert for a long time, and the finished product really is amazing!

Dear son said to me when I served him this dessert, that "Mommy, this dessert really makes the desserts of high-end restaurants look like scams!" 

My lovely son really put in a lot of efforts to praise and encourage his Mommy! ☺
