Cooking. One of the great mysteries of life. At least for me. A realm full of enigmas and wonder. A real where many can enter, but only a few will persevere and emerge victorious. Where raw ingredients become culinary magic that can fill up the hearts of many and sooth the troubled soul. I am always captivated by this realm, and the ability of a select few to do seemingly impossible things with so little things.
To master it (or at least become proficient in it) became one of my lifelong dreams, and last month, I attempted to enter this realm. After a few false starts, and lots of trial and error, I scored a few achievements.
Of course, I won’t stop here. There are still too many things to try and taste and experience. The journey is far from over.
I will persevere.
P.S: Sorry for the dramatic tone of this post. I’m on a high after seeing how my Chicken Kapitan turned out. By the way, Ayam is chicken in Malay.
for some reason, your food looks a lot like the stuff that brahim’s sells. the ready made food in packets that you only need to heat up, you know? and i can cook better than you nye nye nyeeeeehhhhh!!
GanaeshD: Ah, you would be wrong there, my dear. One of those was done from scratch, from a recipe I found online. Lain tu, only the sauce was pre-packaged. The rest was cut, cooked and fried by yours truly. ^_^
