Hello! I've been out for a long looong time with no updates at all since I was really busy the past few months. I had multiple exams, went for a long holiday, and had some personal issues to settle so I really had not much time left to cook something. It is my study break now before I head on to my final exams at the end of June, so I'm taking a little spare time off my study to update this blog again. Today, I'm gonna be sharing how I make Assam Fish using my little rice cooker :D


Ingredients:
About 500-600g of ikan tenggiri (Spanish Mackeral)
2 large potatoes
2 large tomatoes
6 pieces of lady fingers
1 medium sized eggplant
1 packet of assam fish paste
200ml of water

Sushi Cake [Rice Cooker Recipe]

Today is the 20th of March! Today is his 21st birthday! Hurray!!! *partypoppers*

To mark this special birthday, I planned ahead and made a special cake for him. Yup, it is the sushi cake. The reason why I thought of making a sushi cake is that: he has this constant craving for sushi. Every 2 or 3 days, he will be whining about wanting to eat sushi, pleading me to just give him some sushi rice and seaweed so that he can satisfy his weird cravings! Therefore, I just thought like, "Hey, maybe I can do a fusion of something like a cake and also like sushi?" I did try to Google for sushi cakes but all I get are pictures of sponge cakes decorated with fondant sushi. That's not what I am trying to look for, and I couldn't find a recipe and tutorial available online. In the end, I just decided to create my own version of a sushi cake. 

Tadaaa! This is my sushi cake! ♥♥♥

Ingredients:
2.5 cups of raw Japanese rice
1 cup of sushi vinegar
Mayonnaise
1 can of tuna in brine
1 small avocado
Several cherry tomatoes
21 medium-sized prawns
1 packet(box) of Korean roasted seaweed
Salt

Sweet Potato Porridge [Rice Cooker Recipe]

After many days of eating out, I decided that I should make porridge for dinner tonight. I know, I have OSCE and OSPE tomorrow and I should be studying... but honestly, I feel like exam is already over. Happens every time, especially the day right before the exam starts. In the past 4 months I've sat through 3 major exams at least and many uncountable minor ones, so that accounts for almost 1 major paper every month. A normal human being, like me, will definitely feel numb towards the thought of exam after all these repeated cycles. 

Hence, I decided I should just screw studying like I've never studied before and have a nice afternoon nap before getting up to prepare my dinner at 5PM! :D


Ingredients: [Serves 1 person]
1 medium sized Japanese sweet potato
1 medium sized onion
Half a cup of rice
400ml of water
Salt
Pepper
Soy Sauce (Optional)

How to Cook an Omelette with the Rice Cooker

I think I've reached another rice cooker milestone today.
 Yes, I fried something with it.
I was really afraid that it won't be a success and I'll just waste all the eggs but luckily, I manage to get it fried properly after one failed try. The hard part about frying an omelette in the rice cooker is keeping the 'cook' button down. First of all, you will definitely need to heat the oil but the thin layer of oil is too light and it will be as if the rice cooker is empty. The 'cook' button will tend to pop up sometimes because of this. It is also super hard to flip the omelette inside a pot which is small in diameter and  deep too. These are the main challenges.

BUT I DID IT! :D

Ingredients:

4 large eggs
1 large tomato
1 large onion
Salt
Pepper
Corn oil

How to Cook Instant Noodles in a Healthier Way

So, the yummy love of my life and forever topping the list of my favourite food would be this: instant noodles.
Yes, the super unhealthy, loaded with fats, first fried then dried, MSG-filled seasoning kind of instant noodles. Who in this world doesn't like instant noodles? I don't know, but I find that most of my peers just love instant noodles as much as I do.

Instant noodles are like the God of all food, especially to a student. Imagine, it is easy to cook, cheap, convenient to get and most importantly, comes in all sorts of flavours and texture. You name it. They are best comfort you can find when you're hungry from some late night studying or when you're rushing assignments. Or maybe, you're just too busy or lazy to even go buy some proper food outside. Instant noodles are like the one-stop solution to your hunger :D

Unfortunately, it is damn unhealthy.Well, it is processed food that can be kept on shelves for like years so, it is kind of obvious that the preservatives alone are a big deal. Plus, their seasonings and the MSG content blah blah blah... yes, in conclusion it has almost zero healthy nutrients except for carbohydrates, fats and a whole lot of sodium content.

So, today I am going to share how I usually cook my instant noodles, in which I think is a healthier way to eat it. I think I learned this from my grandmother... when I was younger. Teehee!

So, this is what I chose to eat for my dinner/supper tonight!

Egg with Mayonnaise Sandwich - Simple student's recipe!

This will be a simple recipe in which the only appliance that you will need is an automatic rice cooker.

The ingredients:

A loaf of wholemeal bread
3 large size eggs
Approx. 2 tbsp of mayonnaise
1 large tomato
