Lesson learned: Never ask Umi berapa banyak kunyit nak letak..

9th March 2025,

it's Rachel's birthday today, member tengah syok tidur aku pulerk tengah bersantai lepas balun Koko krunch, and masak lauk sahur.


Macam awkward to write after so long I didn't write here, but I think I need a comeback, Raihana has been missing for so so long 😵‍💫! But to tell I've been living my life quite fullest la juga; I learned, I worked, I cooked, I explored places with my family and dated most of my closest friends from university since I graduated. It's already puasa day 8 dah,, and proudly nak flex aku kot yang masak buka skang, bkan mak aku HAHAHAHAH 😎 nasib je la tak snap hari2 sebab tahu2 dah licin but I cooked sizzling, macaroni cheese, sardin kuah tomato cili api, spaghetti masak lemak cili apii kahkah 


Currently it's 1:39 am and I just cooked some lauk bersahur. I think the recipe is quite simple that I want to keep it for my husband later hahahaha. 


Udang Kertas Goreng Kunyit



Sorry la ni snap masa berasap-asap dalam kuali hshshs sekian. 


So first, defrost your udang kertas dulu, perhaps rendam dalam air so it cud mempercepatkan proses untuk the udang to cair. Lepas dah cair, just basuh beberapa kali, orang Jawa kata 'unyel-unyel' dengan tangan, then letak like (1) half tablespoon of kunyit, and (2) 2 teaspoon of salt. Gaulkan. 


Sebenarnya we tadi mak aku cakap 1 tablespoon kunyit turned out benda ni rasa kunyit sangat weh mungkin udang aku yang tak banyak like cuma 1 pinggan klasik Daia je so aku roger korang untuk letak half je okie 😌. Konfiden je Umi. 


Lepas dah gaul tadi udang2 tu dengan kunyit & garam, you take out your chopping board and prep your saute regime; (3) slice halus half bawang merah size besar, 3 ulas bawang putih & 2 hiris halia saiz ibu jari korang dengan like 3mm thick. - so bila ada 2 hiris, means ada 2 kepingan halia yang lebar mcm lebih kurang ibu jari, panjang pun lebih kurang ibu jari and the thickness is 3mm each equivalent 6mm la untuk both tebal. 

Biarkan bawang merah tadi as it is and tumbukkan bawang putih & halia dalam lesung batu. 


Then nak tumis, trust me I'm a good cook, aku anak sulong kot - tuang minyak masak dalam 3 sudu besar (jangan banyak2!). Lepastu, masa nak saute/ tumis tu, masukkan bawang merah dulu sebab bawang merah ni lambat hangus, and sepanjang dia chill dalam minyak masak yang dah panas tu, dia akan keluarkan rasa manissss. So agak2 dia dah ada dua tiga helai dah caramelized (kaler chocolate nak hangus),, baru masukkan bawang putih dengan halia dah tumbuk tadi. 


Gaul sampai naik bau, masukkan udang korang and gaul sampai dia masak! Siap!

Skincare Routineeee!!

Yes, 2 minutes right after publishing my ' Alcoholic Father story ' . >< 24th April 2019, next week exam! Hari Guru SMIK. Hello, people! Today I decided to tell you guys about my skin secret. I thought lot of u guys can handle these teenage sensitive skins, but there are some asked me about what I wear & I never thought people will think about my skin is like what i thought i would never be. A little kaget here, actually. Hehe. So there might some of you gonna ask, is it OK to have skincare stuffs i mean, does own it can against the syara'? The answer is, having skincare thingies is OK as long as it's halal (make sure you check the halal logo on your products before buy it! Maybe for some opinions, nobody is going to care. But trust me, i do care about your skincare status cuz are you, gonna take off your skin everutime you wanna pray or during ibadah? and MY DAD cares about mine. He ever throw away my VERY NEW-NOT EVEN TOUCHED-FACE WASH because ...

5 minutes parenting experience, i guess

 28th September 2022.  It's been a while I didn't talk about dream since the last time about the prince charming who woke me up for Fajr prayer if you guys could recall. And this morning's dream is nothing less as happy as that one.  I dreamt that I woke up from everyday sleep like always but there were lots of people waiting around the bed. It was like around 30 people I don't really recognize but they somehow knew me in that dream. First when I got my eyelids opened they were all cheering and talking to each other " Raihana is awake, Raihana is awake " as if I slept for a quite long time and I was like, " oh yes, I am ". I looked at those faces and I really, didn't know who they are, however their expressions and behaviors subtly indicating that I was in a comma. Like always, I usually drink some water after my sleep - So I rose from that bed and tried to walk to the kitchen. The kitchen was filled with natural lighting, as warm-yellowish as h...

Best souvenirs to get from Hejaz @ Mecca & Medina! || Travel guide 🤠

18th Dec 2019, 15.34 pm Alhamdulillah, my mum just got back from her Umrah! I was so toast, 10 days captived at my own home 😖. It shouldn't supposed  to be that bad at first but my dad suddenly informed us that HE REALLY NEEDS TO OUTSTATION. So ya. I am all alone. When my mum has reached there, in Jeddah, i am very excited and wondering what will she get for me? I do love collecting things and stuff from other parts of the world! Soooo my mum's trip to there will surely makes me can't hold my breath any longer that i decided to surf the internet about souvenirs from Hejaz. Sadly, all pictures of souvenirs on Google didn't show much. And i keep saying to myself, there must be something good in Hejaz.. like what the companions r.a bought long time ago? What kind of gift they got for their wives and daughters?  So, time moves pretty fast that my mum safely arrived her home sweet home and i am shocked,, my mum is SO BRILLIANT in buying goodies. Like everything she...
