of masak lemak, sambal belacan and petai on merdeka

since big bro is home for the merdeka's holiday, mummehpink's decided to whip up magic in the kitchen with everyone's favourite dish! so today's berbuka menu will be masakan kampung. the parents went out earlier this morning to go to pasar tani to buy all these stuff while yours truly was still... errr comfortably snuggling in her bed.

but but i did help in the kitchen with the cookings, and cuttings, and stuff!!!

ikan jelawat salai masak lemak with belimbing muda and daun asam gelugor!
lots and lots of ulam variety with mom's legendary sambal belacan!
kerabu kaki ayam with generous dash of lime!
and also ikan bakar coming right up later!

oooh i am already drooling as i am typing this.

and not to forget on an unrelated note, happy merdeka everyone! since #iheartmalaysia has been flooding my twitter homepage today, so i joined in the bandwagon and here's mine:

#iheartmalaysia because all it takes to make all of us unite and tweet non stop is just twitter and the hope of every malaysian to make #iheartmalaysia as a trending topic again (after the success of last night or so i heard. i don't know. i wasn't online).

now, that's unity to me. :)
