and so this morning i started preparing the ingredients i needed for making my udang masak lemak nenas tomorrow, meant for serving to the guest my mum invited.
and i never knew that galangal, or blue ginger, can smell so wonderful. it's infused with such a delightful scent of somewhat similar to lemongrass, yet with a touch of refreshing ginger accompanied by a tint of spiciness. it definitely perked me up, as i left the house smelling like galangal.
and after a day out, i came home to prepare the garlic, shallots, dried chilli and lemongrass. pounding everything was really tiring, it was like my heart and soul was in tune with the beats from the pestle and motar. i felt really calm, though sweaty and tired, but truly deep in serenity.
then udang masak lemak nenas better turn out well tomorrow, else i'm going to be pissed with my hard work going down the drain!
but nonetheless, i can't wait for the moment i pour the coconut milk down the pot and the frangrance ZOMG!
Libellés : :), ALFRED, food
