ahhhh, that soto ayam looks so ‘sedap’! will definitely try it one of these days esp. as autumn is slowly creeping in over here… ;)

MM, here’s another version of Wilson’s muesli. Instead of soaking the oats in milk overnight, soak it in orange juice, then add the other goodies…

lee you need an oven or toaster oven for my recipe… microwave won’t work I think. Try half a recipe first because my recipe makes enough for 20+ breakfasts… I was so faint at the Mall an hour ago I ate an entire mini-loaf of bread to recover…don’t you just HATE self-denial?

good thing today is payday and i can stock on the ingredients in your granola post. bad thing today is payday and the grocery lines will be long. but good dieting men stand in line and wait

good that the comments thread leads to oatmeal trickery. I too am blessed with elevated cholesterol therefore cursed to consume oatmeal. Great to read suggestions on how to “pimp” my breakfast.

hi MM, have been having the same oatmeal blues since i found out i had high cholesterol last month. i tried mila’s suggestion this morning. i toasted oatmeal and slivered almonds, added fresh honey and (hacienda macalauan) yogurt. a lot more palatable than regular oatmeal… =)

teny, yes nasi goreng is Indonesian and possibly Malaysian as well. It is delicious and flavorful and grease laden... satay is Indonesian as well. Linda, bakmi goreng is great, haven't had any in a few years; as for the number of candlenuts, about 2 pieces for a pot serving siz might be sufficient, but adjust as you add it to the broth. Wilson, your version sounds far more appetizing than mine. But perhaps part of it is feeling the torture...heehee. Arlene, I make my own granola and I have a recipe in my archives; here is the link. Mila, arrgh, uncooked oatmeal?! It's bad enough cooked. Gus, follow the link in the post to galangal, I had another post on it a few weeks ago.

Or add uncooked oats to a mix of dry fruits, nuts, drizzle with a bit of honey, eat with a good thick yogurt. Homemade muesli!
