"Aikzhou Italian Salmon" Recipe

I was going through the supermarket in Jusco Bukit Tinggi, Klang yesterday to shop for some groceries. When I pass the fish section, I just couldn't take my eyes of the fresh, beautiful and wonderful salmon fish that they were cutting up to fillet sizes! Immediately I craved for some of that yummy fishy meat! Thus, buying 2 pieces of it which burnt around RM21.90 into my wallet. Heheh... but lemme tell you this.. it is really worth it!

I got it home and threw the salmons into the freezer cuz I plan to cook it tomorrow morning for breakfast. Around midnight I took the salmon out from the freezer and put it into the fridge to defrost slowly.

This morning I woke up around 8.30am and started my journey of dreaming to be a gourmet cook! Wakaka... I tried to find recipes for my salmons but all of them are either too confusing or too delicate (ok ok ... maybe its my fault.. i don't recognise some stuffs like DILI!? what the heck is DILI). Besides, i'm a poor guy whose home doesn't have an oven to baked those yummy salmons. Hahaha....

So I had to improvise on my salmons. And finally I came up with this personal and yummy recipe.. hehe.. this recipe is truly original.. Hmm.. maybe I should name this recipe as Aikzhou Italian Salmon. Hahaha.. yeah.. sounds nice.. haha

So, my friends, below is the recipe for you guys to try if you want it.

"AIKZHOU ITALIAN SALMON" RECIPE

INGREDIENTS
2 pieces of salmon fillet
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Coarse Black Pepper
McCORMICK Italian Herbs Blended
(contains Marjoram, Thyme, Rosemary, Savory, Sage, Oregano, Basil)
McCORMICK Basil Leaves Blended
Fine Salt ( I use organic salt )
1 Whole Orange (I used orange cuz I don't have lemon for my citrus flavour)
1 whole tomato.
1 clove of garlic (smack flat and chopped into small pieces)
Some lightly salted butter or saltless butter
Fresh Organix Lettuce

SEASONING METHOD

After the salmons have been defrost properly (make sure you don't defrost it under running water as that will wash away the juices in the fish) just run it quickly through running tap water to clean it, just a quick one will do as you don't want the fish meat to absorb anymore water. Then used the paper roll to dap it dry.

After doing that, cut your orange into half and squeeze half orange juice onto the salmon meat. Then you sprinkle a little bit of coarse black pepper and salt. Mix in the chopped garlic as well. Then you slowly massage the mixture into the salmon meat. Slowly and lightly rubbing the salt and coarse black pepper. Once this is done, then you sprinkle the McCORMICK Italian Herbs Blended onto the fish. Once again, rubbing it slowly and evenly onto the salmons. Put as much as you like as this McCORMICK Italian Herbs Blended is what will make the salmon smells very good during cooking!

After all this is done, pour the whole thing into a plastic sealable bag and put it into the fridge for 30 - 1 hour (depending on how much you want the taste to be absorbed).

COOKING METHOD

1 hour have passed. You take out the earlier pre-mix fishy. Heat up your non-stick pan and put in 2 tablespoon of Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Wait for it to heat up but not until you can see the smoke coming out! Make sure you don't over heat the oil. Once the oil is properly heated, put in 1 teaspoon of butter (saltless is better as you already have some salt on your fish!) The reason for this is to keep the butter from burning up and turn the whole oil black color.

Once that is done, put in the salmons to cook. REMEMBER! to use medium flame or else your salmons will overcook and get burnt. Once you see your salmon meat turn color 3/4 already, its time for you to pour in some of the juices from the earlier seasoning. Let it simmer in the juice with medium flame for 3 to 4 minutes then flip the salmons to the other side and switch of your gas to let it cook in the contained pan heat for another 2 minutes. While waiting for the other side to be cook by the heat, sprinkle some McCORMICK Italian Herbs Blended and McCORMICK Basil onto the topside.

After all this is done, scoop it up (without the garlics and the other stuffs.. just the salmons will do). Serve it while hot!

Dressing For The Plate

After your salmon is cooked and done, take out your lettuce and peel it into leaflets. Wash it cleanly under running tap water. Chopped it up and put it nicely on the plate you wish to serve the salmon. Prepare the salad dressing mixture by using 4 teaspoon of mayonise, 1 1/2 tablespoon of tomato sauce. Add tomato sauce to your flavour as some like the dressing sourish a lil. If over sourish, you can always add some fine sugar into it.

Pour the oil away from your pan. Wash cleanly and reheat the pan again with 1 table spoon of olive oil. Put into another 1 tablespoon of butter once the oil is properly heated. Cut your tomato into half and put the tomato face downwards (the soft side) onto the pan for searing it. Sear the tomato until its softer from its original hardness.

Scoop it up and serve it onto the plate together with the lettuce and salmon.

Preparing Time : 1 hour
Cooking Time : 10 minutes

Well.. thats it folks. My own recipe and I was so famished that I forgotten to snap a photo of it. Hahaha.. very sorry guys, so no photo of my Aikzhou Italian Salmon recipe. Hehehe... I hope you guys enjoy the recipe as much as I enjoy cooking it and chow-ing up into my stomach!

Political Chaos In Malaysia

I'll never understand all these idiots. Firstly, the people elected them is because the people trusted them and yet these monkeys don't even have half the brain to stop and think if this is what the people want.

They are nobody if not for the party manifesto and objectives. They were elected because of the Political Party manifesto and not because of their personal fame. These people is taking our votes as a game and they think they are free to do anything they want after the elections.

Why should the malaysian public take this in their stride when they have been betrayed!? We are no fools nowadays whenever it comes to politics. The young generations from all races are fully aware of their political views and opinions. We are educated people and we expect the politicians to treat us with respect when we chose to vote them into the office!

I've been disillusioned by the power of political parties. And now, no longer I chose to remain silent. Eventhough I have yet to be betrayed by my current politician and political party choice in my own state, I wish to make this known to the politicians all over the country.

I do not give a darn for whatever reasons you can come out with to justify your betrayal to my trust in you and your political visions. You were chosen because you are representing the political party's objectives and manifesto. Please do not make yourself look like a fool. You can come onto the papers and say due to irreconcileable differences, you are leaving them and joining the other party. But your story will just remain a story. The fact is still facts. The people will no longer trust you and will brand you as a coward dog. If to me, I would consider these cowards, worst of than a dog. At least a dog is still loyal to their master no matter what happens.

With this current turn of events of politicians jumping 'ships' at a time where financial burdens of the people is swelling up, I could only have one suggestion --> MIGHT AS WELL THIS COUNTRY BE RULE WITH A DICTATOR! At least no more power struggles and these cowards can concentrate on how to get the country back on its feet!

Darn you politicians who even have the thought of betraying your voters! THIS IS NOT A GAME!

BBQ Recipe - Aikzhou's Creation

I haven't been writing my blog for a couple of weeks infact, I think it's been a month I last posted anything. Here I am again, but this will be a short one.. Cuz I just wanna share a recipe that is my own creation. Hehehe... this is a new twist to the previous recipe I created a year ago around the same time this year.



The story begins when my close-circled friends wanted to have a BBQ party last year. I didn't know why but they kinda setup the whole BBQ party thing very suddenly and at the very last minute. Thus, I ended up with the chicken wings and the lamb chops. It was my responsibilities of marinating `em.



Shessh! I can cook a decent meal but marinating chicken wings and lamb chops for BBQ!? I never ever marinated anything before and I took it to task seriously. To show my seriousness, I went to Tesco and sniff at every god darn spices I can get my hands on or rather my nose on. Hahaha... :) Then I ended up with a couple of simple yet extremely charming spices.



The following is what I used :



1. Lots of raw garlics finely chopped. (and I mean really lots of it!)

2. 3 tablespoon of Pure Olive Oil. (add more if you like, besides.. olive oil is healthy!)

3. Crush black peppers. (err.. no advice on how much you need to use as its dependent on how much 'heat' you wanna add into your lamb meat)

4. A pinch of salt

5. Some shake of Mccormick Basil Leaves

6. 4 sticks of Cinnamon (roughly about 5cm each)

After you have mix it properly, please make sure you seal it up properly before putting it into the fridge overnight for the seasoning to be absorb into the meat.

I hope you will enjoy this personal recipe of mine!

"Rats!! The Petrol Price Has Gone Down" - An unidentified business rat

The petrol prices at our malaysian pumps have gone down to RM2.00 per liter. This is great news but the darn government was darn stupid in the first place. Rising the petrol prices so drastically months ago and all the cost has then shot up. Now, with the petrol price in a downward pattern, we still don't see any basic necessities going downwards so much.



I guess this is the way our businesses work. When their cost is high, and they find it difficult to raise their prices for the goods, they make helluva noise and now when the cost of their products have then gone down, they are acting 'stupid' and not taking serious action on reducing their prices on the goods. Rotten rats! these dykes are!

Minority Be The Prime Minister of Malaysia?

It's official! the President for the United States of America is Mr.Obama. I guess the american democracy has gone beyond the racist line and now they are truly together as one nation. Unlike countries like my own Malaysia, we are still on the racist line and I wonder if we need to wait like America waited, 200 over years to achieve a complete disregards to race but to be as one people for one country.

Imagine if Malaysians have become more mature and really headed for a change. The day when we don't say Chinese, Malays or Indians but we called ourselves Malaysian. The latest tsunami in March election wasn't a real tsunami but only a small hurricane for change. The real tsunami will be when we go beyond the colors in the skin and become as one true nation when the Prime Minister of Malaysia can be a chinese, malay, indian or even kadazan and iban! Now that is what I call a history have been made.

There is always talk amongst my friends who are more on the liberal politics type just like me. We believe in changes but for the better. Why appointing a Prime Minister that couldn't be the minister for all people and who couldn't control fully the nation developments? or rather, why must only UMMO be the Prime Minister not MCA or MIC or SSP or any other component parties for that matter? My friends are all pure Malaysians and we are proud to be one except when our government made blunders after blunders. We do not make friends with each other based on colors but based on knowledge and views that is not racist in nature.

BN (Barisan Nasional) must wake up and the government must stop being a hypocrite! Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Badawi must have now feeling very lousy when he shot himself literally in the foot by saying "Anyone can be PM" in the Star a few days ago. I quote from the STAR Online - "It is possible for anyone from a minority group to be a nation’s leader, even in Malaysia". You gotta be kidding me DSAB !!! a minority group to be a nation's leader? Umno would rather burn than let minority run the country.













WOULD UMNO REALLY GIVE UP THEIR POWER TO RUN THE COUNTRY?

I guess that a minority running Malaysia is only a dream and perhaps this dream one day will come.. who knows, maybe we need another 200 years of history to be where Americans are today.

Wonders of the internet - my point of view

Its kinda funny to see so many types of people on the blog sites. Posting all sort of stuffs and sincerely, its fucking crazy with the things i can read on people's blog and the stuffs they put on with it.

I always thought the internet is useful for stuffs and never really gave a thought about the power of blogging and the power in your fingertips to destroy someone else dreams and hope by just posting photographs and videos of sexual nature which contain those exact people. I've seen alot of photos and read enough to know that there is several girls life is in complete ruin or perhaps in complete stardom (if that's the way you would like to see it) in some of the blogspot members.

I'm pretty sure I'm lagging behind of all those mighty bloggers who have won accolades of awards. I wonder what is the real meaning of blogging if every blogger goes finding competition in every blogs that is posted? I have seen some tremendous, meaningful, digusting, demeaning and whatever you can name it blogs online and the funniest part was, its actual reality eventhough some of them are hiding behind their nicknames.

Since i'm a newbie in this scene and hopefully I can keep up the blogging and share my inputs on stuffs. I heard of Dawn Yang, GutterUncensored and a few more others who are famous bloggers. I read their postings and I am definitely not in their league and ooohhh boy, I'm still learning how the hell do you fucking post photographs on a blog! Lolz, I will keep trying and hope to post some pics whenever I find it interesting enough to share with anyone who is willing to read my blog.
