First meal!

Ard 3 weeks going to 4 weeks since my maid when home. My mum resume her work, no one is able to cook at home. Hope dad's cooking has not become rusty. ahha! looking forward to taste his cooking! Cooking seems fun,but i'll never fail to make a big mess in the kitchen. argh!
Quite disappointed by srjc's corn cup, i bought fresh corns to experiment of making my own corn. Making a corn cup is easy, 2 instruction to follow.
1. Steam the corn
2. Add butter and salt


This should be of the easiest recipe to follow. But questions came crashing into my mind. Do i remove the kernels before or after steaming the corn? How to steam it? How long does it take to steam? How much water is required? Should i use tap water or cooked water? Do i need to boil the water before placing the corns in? My sis has no idea too. Argh... only thing to turn to is the computer!


Dettaching the kernels is a challenge for me, kernels either went all over the place or i would take a long long time by removing them one by one. My sis was very very skillful, fast and efficient, effective. Really got to salute to her, thats her first time removing the kernels too! We ended up steaming with a rice cooker. haha! I agree thats a rather bad idea. After all, it is called the RICE cooker. haha!! experiment! The corns at the bottom are a little burnt. those top ones are fine! phew! so counted as MISSION SUCCESS! (:


Next, Dinner time!

Both of us decide to try out fixing dinner instead of buying packed food. Too sick of outside food. I MISS home cooked food!! We cooked rice with a RICE cooker. haha! Steamed egg and make soup. Hope that it's not too tasteless.

11.11pm, there's a myth about it. i wonder if its true .
