Polka Dot Apam

First of all, who can help me to define a perfect word for Apam. Let me explain a little bit about apam and perhaps you could derive a suitable word for apam. From my naive knowledge, a simple explanation of apam is a cup cake in a different version. First, it is made of rice flour mixed with soaked rice and yis. Leave the mixture overnight for fermentation then steam in a cup the next morning. The other one is just like a sponge cake. Instead of baking you steaming it. Rop, I need your help to find a correct word.

Few weeks ago I shown my wife the beauty of polka dot apam. Actually the multiple colours made it looked very superbly attractive. I browsed the internet to find the receipe and copied it to my wife. As usual my wife is very keen of cooking. I need to help her to demonstrate the method of doing things coz her English is not that good. My English???? Not that good bcoz english is not my native language too.

Today when I smsed her whether she will prepare apams she remained silent. Suddenly in the evening she rang me and the apams are ready. Wow...that wonderful. When I returned home I saw lovely and cute apams. One sincere comment from me was the colours must vividly contrast between the dots and base. One more comment. The dots should put in the piping bag with a tiny round nozzle to make a perfect dot instead of cutting directly the piping bag. Never mind....you always can perfect you skill. Excellent attempt!

I have always wanted to try this cute little apam. Must try it one of these days..

The difference between apam and cupcake? Satu kukus, satu bakar... satu traditional dan satu lagi western. Tok nenek kita dulu2 kan tak ada letrik... itulah sebabnya kuih2 kita semua banyak dikukus!!!

Regent Park Mosque London Setiap hari Khamis malam Jumaat aku akan ke London untuk ke Algate East Mosque, Christian Street, London. Masjid ini dahulunya adalah synagogue. Apabila komunity Islam sudah bertambah di kawasan ini, terutamanya warga Bangla, maka ramai orang orang Yahudi yang berpindah ke North London. Selalunya aku akan terus dari kelas ke sana yang memakan masa selama 30 minit by train. Kadang kadang ada member teringin nak ikut tapi selalunya aku seorang lone ranger aje. Di samping dengar bayan sekali sekala seronok juga boleh jumpa dan borak dengan member2 yang lain. Di sinilah aku selalu jumpa Abang Qasim aku tuh. Kalau aku dah penat dan rasa dah lewat untuk pulang ke rumah, aku iktikaf aje di masjid. Kalau aku iktikaf Abang Qasim lah yang selalu sediakan bistra untuk aku. Sayang dia kat aku...hehehehe. Esok paginya kadang aku terpaksa ponteng kelas sebab lewat. Lagi pun subjek tu bukanya ada exam pun. Jadi week end sahaja aku selalu lepak di rumah member member aku yan

Pokok Bunga Kertas Sekarang orang tanam pokok bunga kertas dalam pasu gantung. Bila daun dia merendang dan berbunga memang nampak cantik seperti pokok pertunia. Rasanya pokok bunga kertas ni lebih senang nak jaga lagi pun dia berbunga sepanjang tahun. Ada juga di tanam di dalam pasu yang lebih besar. Tetapi harga tiga kali ganda. Aku beli Empat pasu untuk di letak di depan rumah aku. Satu warna bright pink, peach, white and light pink. Nampak gaya ia akan menjadi koleksi terbaru aku. Dulu aku pernah tanam berbagai bagai pokok ni dan dah besar dan cantik untuk di bongsaikan. Tapi kawasan rumah sekangkang kera aku terpaksa eksport ke rumah mertua aku. Sekarang entah kemana pokok pokok itu. Actually idea untuk letak bunga kertas berjurai tu dah lama aku buat seperti di dalam gambar tu. Aku rasa dah 6 tahun aku tanam kat atas tu tapi masih juga kemetot. Aku tahu puncanya. 1. Tinggi sangat - jadi malas nak kerabat pakai tangga untuk membaja dan merumput. 2. Kurangnya baja untuk di suburkan

Pokok Kemboja Inilah pokok kemboja yang baru aku semai. Harap harap dan berdoa hiduplah mereka Ini satu lagi semaian dari spesis baru yang aku dapat dari SB Kemboja yang di semai semula akibat tumbang ti tiup ribut tahun lepas suadah subur dan baru mula berbunga. Warnanya bright pink Ini pun sama juga kemboja yang mula berbunga selepas di tanam semula akibat tumbang di pukul ribut. Inilah kemboja besar berwarna orange and pink. Risau juga takut tumbang di tiup angin. Do you know that Kemboja possesses its very own characteristic smell? Yesterday I was picking the varieties of Kemboja from the ground and I started to smell them. To my astonishment, all of them explained a different kind of aroma. . I was at SB one day and while I was enjoying driving and viewing the varieties of plants, I saw a pink with maroon lining Kemboja by the road side. I stopped my car and asked the Indon man how much was the Kemboja. He said RM75. The size was about3 feet tall and already blooming. I was cont
