Aappa Kadai Butter Naan & Hot & Sour Soup
Aappa Kadai (AK) is an indian restaurant that we usually dine at. But we prefer to call for home delivery. AK is located at Al Karama, the busiest indian place in Dubai. Traffic is always bad there, so that is the reason y we prefer to call them to deliver food to us. AK is cheap and good. Amazingly, they sell quite good chinese food. Needless to say, their indian food is yummy.
We called for home delivery on sat night. I only took pics of the naan and soup. I love their butter naan, this goes very well with their pepper chicken curry. Sorry, probably next time will show you the curry pic. Was starving that day & we walloped up everything. Hehe...

My 1st Char Siew!! (Wok Fried Style)
Char Siew (CS) is best to be marinated overnight. Let the marinade be absorbed fully into the pork belly. I miss CS so much that I decided, just make! and it was a success! Im glad, I must say, cuz I never expect this to be so easy. Moreover, Angie contributed the style for making this CS. Wok Fried! Yay! Thanks Angie! and the recipe is from another member of KC who's homemade CS sauce can even beat Lee Kum Kee (LKK) sauce! Haha...
Hong Kong's CS is brown in colour whereas Singapore's CS is red. I think we're all so used to the red colouring as it looks more appetizing. But I have no doubts that HK CS is good too! =)
Curious, I made both at the same time. One LKK & the other, the homemade sauce by "cwl" @ KC.
See the difference...
LKK Sauce CS
Homemade Sauce CS (I added abit of red colouring as the original recipe does not have any red colouring, don't look really red tho)
Verdict: Hubby & I love the homemade CS sauce! Outbeat LKK sauce! Its definitely a keep on my recipe book! Yay, now no need to crave for CS liao, can make anytime! Im so happy!
Using Coke for Cooking
I was surprised that we can actually use coke for cooking dishes. As I scanned thru' KC's forum on "Asian Poultry" section, I decided, why not try this? Tho it may seem weird or sound funny, but who knows if you dont try. A member contributed this recipe in KC.
Coke Chicken
Ingredients:
1kg chicken
1 can of coke light with lemon (best to use this, others are too sweet)
2 slices of ginger (cut into very thin strips)
2 tbsp light soya sauce (i use kwang cheong thye brand, diff brand will make this dish taste different)
1 tbsp of dark soya sauce
Some spring onion cut into thin strips half red chilli(w/o seeds) cut into thin strips
Method:
1. Poke the chicken with a fork.
2. Marinate chicken in coke for 1/2hr.
3. Stir fry ginger in 2 tbsp oil till fragrant.
4. Add in chicken to stirfry till half cooked.
5. Boil remaining coke in a small pot at add into the chicken slowly.
6. Add into light soya sauce & dark soya sauce.
7. Boil chicken till very little of sauce left.
8. Add some corn starch(w/water) to get the "gow".
9. Add spring onion & red chilli stir for awhile before serving.
After getting good feedback from hubby, and I myself find that using coke to cook the above chicken recipe is delicious, I decided to create my own coke chicken dish. I must say that the results are good! For those of you, who dont like coke, I recommend u to just try this once, cuz when u taste it, u wouldnt even know that this dish is used by coke!!
Here's my very own Black Pepper Chicken with Toasted Sesame Seeds
Ingredients:
500gm chicken thigh meat
1/2 can of diet coke

1/2 a lime for juice

1tsp extra virgin olive oil
2tbsp light soy sauce
1tsp chicken marinade (Lee Kum Kee brand)

Sago Pudding with Gula Melaka
I FINALLY found Gula Melaka here.
"Gula Melaka is the name of the brown palm sugar tapped from the coconut tree. It has a fragrance so intensely delicious that it needs only the addition of thick coconut cream to create a sauce of unsurpassed richness.This is poured over a simple pudding made from sago pearls." (Taken this from the web)
Ingredients:
250gm Sago
450ml Water
300gm Gula Melaka (to your own taste)
250ml Water Coconut milk (to your own taste)
Method:
1. Boil 450ml of water in a pot. Add sago when water is boiling.
2. Stir continuously to avoid sago sticking to one another. Boil until all sagos are translucent.
3. Remove from heat & sieve sagos in a sieve. Put sagos in a large container filled with room temperature water to avoid them sticking together.
4. Boil 250ml of water in a pot again, and put in gula melaka.
5. Bring this mixture to boil and make sure gula melaka is dissolved.
6. Drain away sago water (the water from method 3) & put sagos in a rice bowl or mould. Refrigerate.
7. Serve this dessert chilled with cold gula melaka syrup & coconut milk. Enjoy!
** I love this dessert sweet, if you would not like it too sweet, u can reduce the gula melaka. ** Coconut milk-- up to you to add according to your taste. ** If you are using big sagos, soak them in water first before boiling them in water. This will shorten the time of cooking, else big sagos take a longer time to cook.
Been a long time since I ate fish!!!
Wow! Time flies, been a while eversince I logged in & post. Im an IT "idiot" but this blogspot really made me from an "idiot" to professional! haha... ermz... think my eyesight went up liao, due to keep looking into the html stuffs here. Sigh...
Yesterday, I went down to the supermarket (Spinneys) opposite my place. Usually, Spinney's fishes are quite lousy and always never fail to have fishy smell. Pork is ex here and so is fish. Chicken is usually in our everyday meals. Be it lunch, dinner or supper, U will see chicken on our dining table. But we're never tired of it. Hehe.. Back track now, yea, so yesterday, feel like eating fish out of the blue. So pass by the "seafood" section & saw King Fish Steak. The fish looks fresh & meat is soft. So I decided to buy 1. Told myself to give Spinneys a chance to prove their fish to me again for the 10th time. Hehe.. And yes, i bought it.
Then, I went to the vege section to get some leeks. I like leeks. My mama used to make simple leeks dinner for my papa n me. She loves to attend community cooking classes as they are conducted in chinese. Not all the time she can catch wat the teacher is talking about but at least she tries. Now she's improving but she still prefers to eat out.
Oke, here's the dish that I made yesterday. Another recipe by a member from KC.

1 fish head ( I use fish steak)
3 stalks of fresh leeks (sliced)

1 tbsp sesame oil

My 1st food blog and thoughts...
Hi there! Welcome! I call this blog "Gracio’s Café" because since young, I've always wanted to open a café. It’s a dream of mine which hasn’t been fulfilled yet, but hopefully, I would be able to own one real soon. So this blog is my first step towards that passion I have.
I have given my "baby" a new look this time and am glad that I own a food blog now! Have been procrastinating it for months, finally here I am, penning down my recipes.
Am very tempted to give up on this blog as its not easy to use. But in the end, I decided, this is something that I've been wanting to do. :)
In the meantime, please bear with me if you ever see this blog untidy as it's still in the midst of "shaping up" by me.
Oh yes, do drop me a msg so I know you were here. Enjoy yourself & have a good time!
