After ng mass nag lunch ang bida (ang may birthday) for sa Zap kami ang kanyang paborito.

Birthday celebration 30 March 2012

It was my birthday on March 24 it is Bug bday today (April 8).  We decided to invite our friends here to have a simple dinner.  Napilitan na din kami maglinis ng bahay sawakas!

For the dinner, I prepared shrimps in garlic and butter, lamb skewers. Tapos nag takeway sa #1 bbq si Bug ng crispy pork (2 kilos) and some stir fried veggie. 

Our guests brought fried chicken wings, pasta carbonarra, ice cream, chicken satay and cake. Ang cute ng cake na gawa ng friend namin. Ito ung photo!

 

Happy birthday to us!!!!

Lumpiang tuna

I recently tried cooking lumpiang tuna and it was a hit. I'm posting it here so I would not forget the recipe.

Ingredients:
 1 canned tuna
 spring rolls wrappers
 mixed veggies (peas, carrot and corn)
 1 small diced onion
 1 egg
 salt and pepper to taste

Procedure:
 Combine all the recipe in a bowl.
 wrap the combined ingredients in the spring roll
 Fry in oil.

Lamb skewers

Its been a while since I posted something here.  The initial plan was to do at least 1 post per week but got busy with other stuff. I will try to catch up though. 

For this Lamb skewers you need the following:
lamb chopped in small pieces
herbs (rosemary, paprika, thyme, salt and pepper)
soy sauce
chili flakes
olive oil
bamboo skewers




Procedure:
1.Cut the lamb chops to small pieces. Smaller pieces makes it easier to grill.
2. Rub the herbs and chili flakes to the meat.  I dont measure the herbs I put in, but maybe you can use 2 tablespoon of mixed herbs to 1/2 kilo.
3. Put salt and pepper to taste.
4. Sprinkle 2 tablespoon of soysauce.
5. Marinate for few hours.
6. Put the meat to the skewers then grill.
7. Dab the meat with olive oil to avoid drying the meat.
