What for dinner?

Cooked roast pork belly with BBQ sauce last night. Mind you, the BBQ was home made by myself. Got the recipe from the internet. It was pretty easy, just pop it into the oven for 30 minutes with olive oil, pepper and cut onions. Then after 30 minutes just pour in the home made sauce and bask regularly for a further of 25 minutes and VOILA!!!!! A very delicious dinner.

Hot from the oven

After slicing the meat, pour the leftover sauce on top

Looks delicious? Its pretty easy and fuss free. Follow the recipe from here. I googled dry cider and found that its actually alcoholic so I doubt I can find it in the Brunei supermarkets. So I just used White Chinese Rice wine and like I said it was delish!!!!! I also substituted brown sugar with normal white sugar. I also added extra heaped table spoon of tomato puree.

I think this dish was quite healthy as I cut away the skin and plus the pork belly meat has only a little fats. Plus I only used olive oil to rub the pork belly and I removed it before pouring in the sauce.

I was really into the cooking mode and since I cooked a really fuss free roast, I actually decided to make tiramisu. Actually it was the other way round. I wanted to make Tiramisu so I chose a fuss free recipe for the pork belly.....hahahaha.


Got the ingredients ready.Whipped cream,. coffee and the cheese. Bought mascarpone cheese coz it was about the same price as the substitution, which was Philadelphia cream cheese. (tsk tsk all the prices are on the rise). Gosh I am telling you, I hate ants! Those pesky little ants got into my sponge fingers packets and it wasn't even open! I just brushed it off and used it all the same. I also used Kahlua liquer, which conveniently was in the liquer cupboard. 

I put the cheese layer a bit too thick on the middle layer and thus left with a little of the cheese mixture on the top layer. Fingers crossed that it will turn out well.

There have been so many instances where I came by my blog and I want to blog about so many things in my life. But there were also as many instances where I just gave up and kept my thoughts to myself. I am 34 years old in 2017 and soon I will be another year older. I am getting more jaded every year because of the things that I have seen. I also feel aimless. I feel as if I am meant to do something more than this. I do not want to wake up and go to work Monday to Friday and so happy when its Friday and becoming depressed when its Sunday (coz the next day would be Monday) It's not like I want to be a millionaire or something like that. Even though money is still important (Hey, I still gotta eat, cant very well grow my own food), it no longer hold the same position as compared to a few years ago. I do not care very much for status as well. Its all so fleeting. After being married in 2013, I am still childless at the moment. Its not by design but I dun mind it all that m...

Unveiling

I was so excited yesterday. Someone called and told me that it was ready for pick up. What is ready for pick up? What makes me so excited? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . What else would make me so excited other than cars? Woo Hoo!!!!! Subaru Impreze STi !!!! How cool is that? Bi fetched me yesterday around 5pm to pick up the car. I could not sit still at home. Was feeling so excited. STi has 3 settings, Intelligence, Sport and Sport Sharp. I read an article online saying that the Intelligence mode makes the STi crawls like a snail. Hmmmm, their exact words not mine. So Bi and me took the car out for a short drive. We were kinda disappointed with the power. It was then we realised that the setting was at intelligence. OMG!!!! When we changed the settings to Sport Sharp, the power is unbelievable. Its like 3 times faster and more powerful. We hit 180 km/h in less than 2 minutes (mite be less if not for those few turtles on the road). In the past S15 will need quite some time to hit 16...

After you by Jojo Moyes

After I read Me Before You by Jojo Moyes  a few years ago, I was waiting for the sequel. What would happen to Lou after Will left? What would her life be? If I am Lou, I will constantly ask myself 'Why am I not enough?' 'Is there anything that I could have done to change his mind?' 'Was it all just me? Just in my mind?' In this sequel, Lou was a wreck! But it's understandable though, she had just lost the love of her life. She has lost someone who had shown her the different aspects of life. Showed her that the life she have had is so unbelievably small. There is so much more to live for. Showed her how she could have made a difference! I couldn't put the book down and I finished it within 1 and a half day. It was strangely compelling. You will be rooting get for Lou all the way. Although there are times that you can't help but get angry with her! 'What was she thinking??????' There was a part in the book that addresses the length of ti...
