Best time for me and hubby to try fellow blogger's recipes, easier ones , when my finger is going through a resting pace right now. Don't have to crack my head to create new recipes for time being..haha! This recipe is sure a keeper for me. Knew it's gonna be awesome when I saw it at dear friend, Diana's space and also at few other blogs. A hassle free preparation, and a quick one. Sis Diana, allow me to translate the recipe here for easy reference by all ya. I added green chillies and chilli sauce to the gravy to give more spicier look and taste. Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe, my kinda favourite! And, since I used whole chicken part with bones, I tripled the ingredients.   CRISPY BUTTER CHICKEN / AYAM MENTEGA RANGUP Original recipe by : Diana@SkyBlue's Kitchen Includes my additions. Please double the ingredients if using whole chicken :) Ingredients :~ 2 chicken breast steaks ~ sliced ( I used whole chicken, cut into smaller

Hello everyone!!! Seeing you again in the new year :) I'm sure New Year has brought lots of new dreams and resolutions for everyone. As for me, the same thing every year...LOSE WEIGHT, a resolution that has been brought forward for many years now, lol! January is always a month of happiness for us. The New Year...and my Hubby's birthday on 17th. This year, we have triple bonanza!!! My Hubby will be returning home this month. He left to work last year, and we'll be meeting again this year...wow! Hoping he could return before his birthday *finger crossed! On other note, Rishie has moved on to Primary Year 2. And, as usual...my daily chores started after a long school holidays. So, these are the happenings for now...let's check out the dish. This would mark my first food post for the year. A famous Malay style dish, and it's my favourite! :) A quick version of mine, best served with white rice...and best if it's made spicy, using bird's eye chillies
