I Cook: That Perfect Grilled Cheese Sandwich

Just last weekend was the laziest that I can be for this month. Too lazy to actually do anything plus I had a massive head ache. It is one of those days that you are too tired to move or do chores. But it is only during weekends that we do our grocery. Luckily there was an on going promotion  which is buy one get one. Without thinking twice, it ended in our cart.

Cheddar is one of my favorite type of cheese. I usually stack it with Mozzarella and our local cheese on toast. Then while it is still warm, the Mozerella will all be gooey and yummy and the sharpness of cheddar and local cheese is the bomb diggity!

Try it out :)

What you need

Cheddar cheese
Mozzerella
Local Cheese (Eden)
Butter
Salt
Pepper
Bread

I used a square flat griddle pan. Melt butter on pan and place the bread. Place the cheese on top and this should melt the cheese while you have another grilled with butter.  Place the bread on top of the bread with cheese and season with a little salt and pepper. Then flip it to season the other side as well. Once your bread is toasted on both sides its time to take a bite and enjoy! Melted cheese... I just cant say anything but yummy!

That quick and easy!

Happy eating! xx

Thoughts: Something to remember

Let us not waste our emotions by despising.  There is much more that we can feel and do.

We can use these emotions to spread love if you feel hate. Motivate than Frustrate. Be humble than arrogant. Be simple than extravagant.

Remember that each person has their own battle to fight. May it be how to survive another day until the darkness ends and there is light.

If you think that you are above anyone else, remember that we are all stepping on the same ground.

Do not belittle, disrespect , judge, shame or ridicule. Remember that there is the One above who can see what you are as a whole.

So start your day and be awesome and great .For today you'll be the youngest than you can be and it's not too late. 

Weekend Baking : Apple Turnovers

I just can't believe it! It's June and I have not posted anything for 10 months now. Been really busy with work and life. Life is pretty interesting and everything seems to be a roller coaster ride. You just need to hold on honey. Make the most out of it. Okay, enough of the little drama. I will try my best to upload/post some of my randomness once in a while.

I've been browsing through my tablet's gallery and noticed that I have been doing a lot of cooking and baking in the past few months. I saw my Apple Turnovers and I was like "Why did I not post this?".Which reminds me that it was that time when the news broke regarding the Granny Smith and Gala apples recall. So I was a little hesitant since I bought 1 Granny Smith and 1 Fiji during that period. But it was still on display and they never pulled it out in the grocery so I am assuming it is safe for consumption.

This easy and delicious turnover is just divine! I start off by preheating my oven around  200 degrees C. for 15 minutes and prepare the following. By the way, since  I only made 3 turnovers the recipe is good for about 4-5 depending on the cuts you make with the apple. I chopped them really bite size because I don't want huge chunks in my pie.

2 apples peeled, cored and chopped
2 tbsp butter
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tbsp flour
1/2 tsp cinnamon
Puff Pastry ( I used Kawan Block Puff Pastry)
1 egg (for  brushing on top of the pastry before baking)

In a pan on medium heat, melt the butter and place the apples and brown sugar and cinnamon and mix until the apples turn soft.

Mix in 1 tbsp of flour to thicken the consistency and set aside the mixture to cool.

Meanwhile dust a little flour and place the puff pastry. Get your rolling pin and thin the pastry to a few centimeters. Place in the apple mixture and fold it forming a triangle.

Using a fork, seal the edges by pressing the dough. Don't forget to poke it in the middle so steam can be released. Brush with egg wash and pop it in the oven for about 20-25 minutes.

 And here is my first attempt.

It's easy and delicious! You can top it off with vanilla ice cream and drizzle some caramel sauce. My mouth is just watering right now.

Happy Eating!
