Terong Belado with Serrano Chili

Camping chili!

serano chilis
green onion
lots of shallots
tomatoes
Blend all together in a mixer.

Heat lots of oil, when hot, pour mixture. cook as usual, BUT, towards the end, crank up heat to high, and watch very carefuly, because it'll start to get slightly burned at the bottom, so constant scraping is needed. the burnt bits is what makes this taste different! color should be dark greenish red, instead of bright red like normal chili. season with s&p and sugar.

make lots, cuz bumba and bumbi finish this very fast, and i always have to make more! on the same day!

Simple coco chutney - Auntie

green chili, 2 - 3

ginger, 1 cm

shallot, 1

coconut

water

Blend all till smooth. Season with ms, dry red chili, and curry leaves. 

Grilled Sandwich with Cilatro Pesto

pesto:

olive oil

2 garlic

small bunch cilantro

s &p

Blender till smooth.

Filling:

zuchinni, sliced thinly

cucumber, thinly

tomatoes, thinly

cheese bread from fmrs mkt, sliced thickly

To Make:

Grill the bread in cast iron, smear butter on each sides when flipping them.

grill zuchini's slightly on the same pan, just to limp it.

Take off pan, and assemble everything together. smear pseto to bread, place zuchini, tomatoes, and on top cucumber. smear pesto again on top, and sprinkle parmezan cheese on top. 

better to eat on a slice of bread, instead of two bread pieces together.

DO NOT put too much pesto. Less is more!

YUMMY!
