Schnitzel di pollo con la salsa al pomodoro bianca(Chicken Schnitzel with white tomato sauce)

My friend asked me to make a chicken schnitzel with hairloom and tomato what ever.  Firstly, I don't know what is chicken schnitzel. So I search it by using wikipedia and it says "It is a traditional Austrian dish consisting of an escalope coated in breadcrumbs and fried." Well, it sounds simple. So I search for some chicken schnitzel's recipe in the internet for examples. Then I collect my data and analyse it. Instead of fry it, I rather bake it because bake do not use any oil, so it is more healthy. I serve my chicken schnitzel with penne since the original schnitzel do not have any carbohydrates in that dish. So the penne is the source of carbohydrate in this dish.

la pasta nel pomodoro bianco di cavaliere

I'm going to East Coast Mall with my friend. Then I walked into the Carrefour to buy some kitchen stuffs. I choose to cook pasta for the next recipe but I think I would like to try a different type of pasta. So I checked out what pasta do they have in Carrefour. Instantly my eye focused to a packet of pasta. It is shell like pasta. So I buy that pasta. Then I would like to introduce my new sauce. I call it white tomato sauce because it is tomato sauce but it is white like carbonara sauce.

Il cavaliere di broccoli nell'uovo (Knight of broccoli in egg)

Eggs, broccolis, and bread. Well that is what I got in one morning. I gathered all these ingredients and start thinking of what to cook with these stuffs. So I decide to cook broccoli in egg. It’s actually broccoli in omelet. I really love to put black peppers in my food because I just love the taste! This omelet have variety of taste. It is salty, sweet, sour and spicy. Maybe you can call this omelet is the multi taste omelet. For the sour taste, I don’t like the extreme sour taste so what I do is I just use lemon curd which is not that sour and it have a little bit sweet taste. Why I choose broccoli? The reason why I choose broccoli is because I think the combination of broccoli and egg is quite awesome.  Let start the omelet.

Il cavaliere di broccoli nell'uovo (Knight of broccoli in egg)

Ingredients: eggs, broccoli, black pepper, salt, sugar, lemon curd, bread, butter and milk.

Method: Place 2 eggs in a bowl. Then chop a plenty of broccoli and put it inside the egg. Then add some black pepper, salt and sugar inside. Pour some milk, about quarter of cup only. Add 3 teaspoon of lemon curd in another bowl and mix it with hot water and stir it until it diluted. Right after that add it inside the batter. Beat the mixture until it mixed up. Preheat your cooking pan with some butter. Cook your egg on one side only in the pan. Let the other side half cooked. Have it with  2 slices of toasted bread. Enjoy!

Il Carbonara Cavaliere Infornato ( The Baked Carbonara Knight)

I was out with my mom to a fruit juice kiosk, The Fruit Station. At the shop, they got pizzas, baked pastas, 'nasi dagang etc. So I try the baked pasta and one of the pizzas. I impress with the baked pasta because the taste is quite awesome. Then I asked my mom "Mom, can you teach me how to make a baked pasta?" asked me. "It's just simple, I can teach you. First you need to make the sauce of the pasta, then you just put it in the baking pot layer by layer of pasta and the sauce." she said. So I went back and surf the internet to search about how to make this baked pasta. I list down the ingredients of the baked pasta. Actually I don't prefer to use other chef's recipe so I create my own recipe of baked pasta. In my Carbonara sauce, I use a bit of black pepper and yellow capsicum. I use black pepper because I like the heat produced by the black pepper. Almost all of my recipe I add some black pepper. Yellow capsicum is use for garnishing since baked pasta is a little bit dull in their colour. Capsicum is one of the best ingredients to cheer up the colour. You can also use other types of ingredients to cheer up the colour of this pasta such as tomatoes or spinach.

Il Carbonara Cavaliere Infornato

Ingredients: Capsicum, Cheddar cheeses, milk, Bay leaves, mushrooms, black pepper, salt, sugar, Pasta(fettucinne, Penne, Macaroni), corn flour, broccoli, chicken.

Method: Boil some chicken's bone to have the chicken broth. Add the Bay leaves, salt, sugar and black pepper. Remove the chicken's bones. Put 7 or 8(or anyway you like) cheddar cheese fillets in the soup. Pour half cup of milk inside. Stir it well. Mix the corn flour with water in a bowl then stir it well until it smooth. Pour the flour mixture in the soup. Stir it well until it concentrated. Dice the capsicum and add it into the soup. Slice the broccoli and the mushrooms adn place it in the soup. Let it simmer for a few minutes.

In a baking pot, put one layer of boiled fettucinne. Then pour the carbonara sauce on the fettucinne layer. Then Cover the top of the layer of carbonara sauce with cheese. Repeat the step for a few times until it covers your baking pot. Lastly, cover your pasta with bread crumbs or crushed cornflakes. Place it in an oven and bake it for 1 hour and 15 minutes at 180 degree celcius. Then it is ready to eat!

To make sure the pasta is cooked or not, you just feel it with a fork, if the fork did not stick in, it means your pasta is cooked. You can replace the bread crumbs with mashed potato. It could be nice too. Have a try and good luck! :)

La Penne di Cavaliere di Baguette ( The Penne Knight of Baguette)

Yesterday my mom and me were at Carrefour hypermarket to search for some food stuffs. Suddenly I saw a loaf of Baguette. So I picked it up. Then my mom asked me to fetch some pastas so I decide to take Fettucine and Penne. On the way back, I was thinking about a new recipe. What I'm going to do with pasta and Baguette? Baguette wrapped with Fettucine? Of course not! Abruptly Penne on top of Baguette crossed in my mind. The main theme is Penne on top of Baguette. What I need now is the sauce. And I remember the Penne at Pizza Hut, it is red in colour, spicy! So now I think of spicy and red sauce. But I will do something different, I would like to create some kind of white sauce or resemble carbonara sauce but spicy. Well, I got an idea how to make that kind of sauce. It's the cayenne! Cayenne gives spicy taste but not the colour. The colour seems to be plain and cheesy but it is actually hot and spicy. Right after I finished my driving test, I decide to cook the dish. Fortunately, my friend, Fakhrullah would like to visit me. It's wonderful! He can help me as a chef assistant. Here it goes the knight of Penne!

La Penne di Cavaliere di Baguette


Ingredients : Penne, cheddar cheese, black pepper, cayenne powder, diced chicken, salt, sugar, bay leaves, and multipurpose flour, diced garlic.

Method: Boil some chicken’s bones to have chicken broths. Then, add some cayenne powder, salt, Bay leaves. Stir it well for a few minutes. After that, Mix the half of the small bowl of flour with hot water and add it into the broth. Boil the penne until it soft. Sautee the garlic until it turn brown and add the black pepper, sugar and salt. Marinate the chicken with black pepper. Then add into the pan and cook with the sauce. Add the penne. Add some cheese and immediately put the chicken aside. Cut your baguette as if you would like to make garlic bread. Spread the baguette with butter and put it in the oven for 5 minutes at 180 Degrees Celcius. Put your penne on the baguette and put the sauce on top. Garnish the dish with parsley on top.

If you are too hungry, you can eat it without the baguette. You'll have limited Penne if you put them on the baguette, maybe you will have 3 to 4 Pennes on top of the baguette. You also can sprinkle some mint leaves as garnishing. This recipe is successful and enjoy it!

Knight Cayenne Fried Rice

My friend Shahran asked me to create a simple recipe based on fried rice. So I go to this Cayenne Fried Rice. Cayenne is a type of spice that is hot and spicy! I can use 'cili Bo' or 'cili padi' or anything that is hot and spicy. But as almost all of my recipes are western type, I decide to use Cayenne. The smell of Cayenne is like 'hapak' smell but the taste is quite good. You can search for it at Tunas Manja, Pantai Selamat, Carrefour, Cold Storage and etc. But the price is quite expensive because it is branded and imported. I use McCormick brand for all these spices and herbs. Let's start the cooking!

Ingredients: Rice(can use couscous), 2 tablespoons Cayenne powder, salt, chicken fillets, 1 capsicum(diced),2 shallots, 2 cloves of garlic, 1 tablespoon of sugar.

Method: Saute the garlic and shallot until it turn brown. While waiting for them to turn brown, seasoned your chicken with a little bit of salt and sugar. Then add then into the pan with the garlic and shallots. Add the capsicum. Put the rice into the pan. Pour a glass of water in a bowl, place the Cayenne powder in it with salt and sugar. Stir it well and pour it onto the rice. Mix it up until the spice is completely spread up. Put your rice on a plate and sprinkle some mint leaves fro garnishing. This rice is HOTT! :D

Knight of Runchang Chicken Soup

Yesterday I decide to cook some chicken stuffs. So I open up the fridge. What I have is chicken only. I never make a chicken soup before so I think I would like to try once. I thaw the chicken and took a few boneless part of the chicken. Suddenly I heard scratchy sound on my kitchen's door. So I peep through the window to see what is going on. It's my cats craving for chicken! So I just ignore them and continue to cook. Every time I cook soupy dishes, I always use the Bay leaves because the Bay leaves give a good aroma to the soup or a gravy. That's why sometimes you can find Bay leave in a spaghetti's gravy. Why I call it Runchang Chicken Soup? This is because I use to cook chicken for my Leopard cat name Runchang long time ago(hantar ke zoo dah!) and I give it boiled chicken breast with a little bit of butter inside. So I put butter into my soup to have a attracting smell and to have it a little bit fatty taste of this soup. You can make the soup by using the recipe as follows:

Chicken Soup

Ingredients: chicken broth, chicken fillets, black pepper, salt, Bay leaves, carrots, onions, oregano, cheddar cheese, butter.

Method: Boil some chicken's bones with butter until it soft. Then, add your Bay leaves,oregano,black pepper,salt,and carrots as well as onions. Simmer it for a few minutes. Then add your chicken fillets. Simmer it for a few minutes and add your cheese. Let it simmer again for a few minutes and switch off the stove. You can eat it with rice or bread. Enjoy the Knight Soup!

Knight's Baked Cornflakes Lamb

One night I was on a dinner with my famiy at New Horizon Garden Restaurant. So I ate one of the dishes called "Udang Goreng Nestum". It is a Chinese cuisine which the shrimp is coated with Nestum and deep fried. So I was think of that kind of food, something that is coated with some kind of cereals. Eventually I got an idea! Baked Cornflakes Lamb. I think the combination of sweet cornflakes with lamb is just nice. So here is the recipe:

Baked Cornflakes Lamb

Ingredients: Lamb, eggs, cornflakes, Parmesan cheese, black pepper, salt

Place 2 or 3 eggs in a bowl, then beat the eggs with black pepper and salt. Grate some Parmesan into the crushed cornflakes that is placed in a bowl. Dip the lamb into the egg mixture and coat it in the cornflakes. Place it in a baking pan, and bake it in an oven for half an hour at 180 degree celcius.

Maybe the taste of this dish is quite nauseate, so I advice you to have this dish with sour cream or yoghurt as sauce. Enjoy! :)
