So we are in Week 3 (I think, because I have lost count) of our Full Movement Control Order or lockdown. I have been staying at home and working from home when there is work. Besides doing a Netflix marathon and cleaning the house, I have been cooking a lot. I am not a good cook and often rely on recipes and Youtube video for ideas.
At the moment I am really running out of ideas what to cook at home. My new go-to places for ideas is Tik Tok. Yes I watch Tik Tok videos daily for exercise tips, dance moves and just for entertainment purpose. Whenever I stumble upon some doable cooking ideas, I would save it under Favorites. Tik Tok is definitely a life-saver.
Missy is quite bored with the usual noodles, udon or pasta that I have been cooking. At times I would prepare wraps or sandwiches for her lunch. When she was in school, at least lunch is taken care of as I would pre-order food from the school cafeteria. Now, I have to cook lunch and dinner and at times, I would cook a big pot so she can have the same food for both her meals.
So, a few days ago, I baked a bread roll for missy and this is one of the ideas I saw on Tik Tok.
I used 6 slices of bread, 3 eggs, 3 slices of ham, 3 slices of cheddar cheese and 1/2 cup of milk. First, cut of the sides of the bread, then roll the bread to compress them. Next, add the ham and cheese on the bread and roll them up. Place all the bread rolls in an over-proof dish. Beat eggs and add in milk. Then add a pinch of salt and pepper to the mixture. Pour the wet ingredients into the bread roll dish and bake it for 20 minutes at 180 degree Celsius. Easy-peasy cooking idea from Tik Tok. I will be trying out some other recipes so do stay tuned *chuckle*.
