Baked Potato

🙂
I Love Baked Potato 🙂

Wanted to go down to Kichn to have the Chicken Ham and Cheese Roll but thought the timing would be tight and there’ll be things I wouldnt be able to do.

🙂
So heres to share~

Theres plenty of Baked Potato recipe online,  so do what you can with what you have. Following recipe is boring sometimes.

Was thinking about the “sauce” hmm…
I never like plain mayo, so I asked on twitter for recommendation, and the Dirty Stall mention butter…

Hmm…

I like them cheesy 🙂 I like strong taste. But I know I dont wanna spend Cos I wont be using them any time soon… so… not gonna get cheese spread.

I decided on buying mayo alone.
Like it has always been, I play around according to intuition.

Lets begin~

I use to think normal potatos (like those used for normal chinese cooking) are oki,
but I came to the understanding that no, we need to get those white meat kind. So I used Australian Baby Potato.
Poke them through and through with a fork, that way, they’ll bake real well.

Then glaze them and salt them a little.

350 f and dump them in for 1hour.
Yes, 1 hour… *Oh The Electricity Bill!!!
Thats why I baked so many at one time. 😉

Hey Hey, now the “sauce”

I know, it doesnt look that fantastic.
But come on, show me a mayo that looks good…


Thats whats inside.
Cheese, Onion, Honey Baked Ham and Raisin.

Cheese, thats what I want.

Onion, it brings in the sweetness. (use medium sized onion)
FYI: small onions smell great after deep frying, medium and big ones taste sweet.
Dont put in too much Onion, cos if its too much, it wont be sweet anymore, it’ll literally be ONION.

Honey Baked Ham, 😀 no bacon, so I used ham. 🙂

Raisin, 😀 happen to see them in the fridge. Its the same idea, the hint of sweetness.

One hour later: *Ding!

A short short while later: *Ding!

Pss… if u want your greens to look gorgeous after boiled, give them a dash of cold water or tap water. 🙂
It’ll help retain the color and probably the vitamins too. 🙂

and that makes a very Happy Ms Ng. 🙂

Be Bless

Renae (Hamster)

Went to the doctors the other day and had to wait for a very very long time.

Me and my itchy backside decided to step into the Pet shop next door.

Lo and Behold…
I saw these:

AWwwWwwWwwww It is so cute I tell you…

That is the beginning of my Hamster adventure. 😀

After chatting with a friend, realize those in the photo were Dwarf hamster.
I love the 2 colors, like when its sleeping, the breathing, u can see the rise and the fall… *I am so stolen away

Tweeted about it to a friend whom I know rears hamster, and he hooked me up and recommended me the Syrian species.

Fast forward to a week later, @sidneyreuben brought me down to meet @hamsterhoarder

and I bought Renae!

*yes, photo out of focus, the photos will be better as the days come by.

Co-incidentally, while I was on way to meet Reuben, I read Miao’s blog. He did a video on his hamsters.
