Sausage and Mushroom Baked Rice



Ingredients...

- 1 cup uncooked rice, washed
- Water to cook rice
- 20g to 30g butter
- 5 garlic cloves
- 200g (white or brown) mushrooms, sliced
- 5 gourmet sausages (around 200g)
- cream of mushroom (undiluted) or Japanese mayonnaise
- Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
- Salt & Pepper
- Parsley (garnishing)


How to...

1. Using a microwave, melt butter to liquid form (should be less than a minute). In the rice cooker pot, add melted butter, sliced mushroom, garlic cloves, salt and black pepper to taste, washed rice, water (i used slightly more as i cook the mushroom with rice) to cook rice. Stir well.

2. When the rice is cooked, dump in the sausage and mix well.

3. Smear the cream of mushroom (or mayo) on top of the rice. or u can mix it in the rice cooker.

4. Top with a layer of shredded cheese. Baked in a pre-heated oven at 200C for about 20-25 minutes, or until all the cheese has melted and is very slightly browned. Garnish with chopped parsley


easy peasy!

aaaaahhhhh aaaaaaHHHHH AAAAAAHHHHH......

fever started on sun morning. max was at 37.9.
it went off on Tuesday morning after taking panadol.
but still could feel the energy being drained away.

and it did came back with a vengeance on wed morning.
and to make things worse, the heavy downpour. that caused my foldable umbrella to gave way after battling with the strong winds and rain.
i was half soaked by the time i reach store. and the air con was *bbbbrrrrr* cold.

by the time i reach home in the early noon, body temp was at 37.8.
by 9pm, it hit 39.
almost got dragged by mr loy to the hospital.

refused to change. popped more pills and slept in.
constantly waking up throughout the night to sneeze and sneeze.

fever finally went down to 37.3 now.
but the nose is a heavy leaking tap. luckily it those watery type, not sticky kind.

and finally!
mr loy cooked his first ever meat dish at our new place!! (which means i had to fry the veggies even though im sick...)
it taste great!! just that my taste bud is in hibernation mode.

any volunteer to cook for meeeee these few days!!

microwave disaster

thursday

wanted to heat up kenny rogers famous corn muffins.
placed microwave safe container inside.
2mins later when i sneak a peek, the container had become flower shaped.

after reading instruction manual for 100th time, came to a conclusion (cause there's no definite answer stated) that only "reheat" can use microwave safe container.
what the hell is the purpose of a manual?!?!

*aaarrrggggghhhh*



friday

wanted to heat up cinnamon rolls from Provence.
placed microwave safe container inside.

"reheat"

2mins later.

*sniff sniff*
HOLY COOOOOW!!! microwave is giving out thick choking chao dah fumes!!!!!

opened door and saw a black roll instead. very soon i was engulfed in smoke. had to opened up all windows and blast the fan in max speed.

half hour later(in fact till now) and the whole house still smelled the same.

tried to make things better by spraying lemon grass room spray.
and it smelled like chao dah lemon grass.

luckily no neighbour call fire brigade.

*AAAARRRGGGGGHHHHH*



no wonder this week didn't have much "feeling" to cook.
if not it won't be just the container and roll that have gone to waste.

=S
