Martabak Telor



There's favourite snack here in my country called Martabak. We can find martabak seller in every city  along the side road. There two kinds of martabak: the sweet one and the salty one. The sweet one is almost taste like pancake, but thicker. And the salty one is like omelette. I love both of them, but I give my heart to the salty one. I think is originated from India or somewhere, but it had modified here, so it can be eat with rice or just like that.

Notes:
1. It's so easy and delicious it made me want  to make it over and over again
2. The ingredients are almost always available at home (maybe except the spring rolls wrap)

The Eligible Bolognese - Meat Sauce for Pasta



bow tie pasta with bolognese sauce


Hello,
I've been making this bolognese sauce since long time ago and still I don't know what exactly ingredients that should put to compose it. Since I've got this recipe from more than one person. And finally It came out with my own recipe. So one time  tried to make this real sauce that posting by one website www.userealbutter.com. The difference between my recipe and their recipe were they use milk to make the sauce more juicy, carrots for some veggies and i know it help to neutralise the fat of the beef and fresh tomatoes instead of pasta.

Still ended up that I was going back to my own recipe. Yes, it's me bad in preparation to follow recipe.

Notes:
1. I only use the available ingredients in my kitchen: Ground beef, milk, tomato sauce, tomato pasta, carrots, onion, butter, parmesan, nutmeg, salt and pepper.
3. This recipe was good and taste different but I still love my old simple bolognese recipe.

enjoy cooking,
Dhidie
