What should you do if you have leftover bananas? Pengat Pisang in an instant!

 Ingredients


250 ml Water 

Gula Melaka (palm sugar) - I use 3 mini cylinders

Pinch of Salt  

2 pandan leaves 

3 to 4 ripe bananas

200 ml coconut milk 

There was some leftover bananas in the kitchen. I did not want to throw it away.. Sayang..So I just checked whatever fixings that I had at that time.

Since it was an unplanned pengat pisang in the making, I just used whatever ingredients in my kitchen. 

I don’t usually cook. So most of the time, I follow my lady instinct with the ingredients.

Firstly, cut the ripe bananas into wedges or small chunks. Then with a water in the pot, I put gula melaka and pandan leaves together until the mix was boiled.

I did not have sago at the time. If you do, you can put it in some. Perhaps 1 spoon, depending on your liking.

Once boiled, I poured the coconut milk and stir it for a while, then I put the bananas. I then put some salt. 

If you find your pengat pisang did not taste sweet, you may add sugar a bit.

You will find your pengat pisang gravy a bit thicken while stirring, that is a sign that your pengat pisang is finally cooked. 


One thing about me, I like to sum up my steps of cooking like below formula. To me it will look easy and simple. 

I just follow my instinct with the time, play with the texture with ‘look and feel’ approach while cooking. It is just a psychological thing for me; p

Simple formula for a noobie :)

Water + pandan leaves + gula melaka = cook till boiled.

Then add,

Coconut milk(santan) + bananas + salt  = pengat pisang!

Malaysia Merdeka: From a Health Perspective

Since we are nearing Hari Merdeka and celebrating the month of Independence Day, there is much to appreciate—from the peace and prosperity of our sovereign country to its evolving economic, social, and cultural diversity. Since independence, Malaysia has made remarkable progress developing the healthcare system. During the pre-independence period, while urban areas had better access to healthcare facilities, these were still limited. Rural areas were more heavily impacted and had to rely on traditional medicines. The disparities in healthcare access between urban and rural areas were prevalent, with urban areas typically benefiting from better facilities and resources. This has resulted in unequal health outcomes and access to essential services. In the early years following independence, efforts were focused on addressing the healthcare needs of the population and expanding the healthcare infrastructure, which included the development of new hospitals and clinics in both urban and rur...

Flower Therapy : How flowers tinge your emotions?

Flowers are always delightful to see, smell and touch. Imagine a garden of flowers that gather plenty of species, with green scenery as background. The various colours of fresh flowers bloom before the eyes. Naturally we smile. We awe. We appreciate. The nature somehow provide us calm and happiness.

Sometimes you want to go out but you are so bored with shopping malls and want to do something different. Now here is the place that you should consider to visit if malls are not your outing spot for the weekend. Check out  Bank Negara Malaysia Museum and Art Gallery and I promise it is not a mundane place. Plus point, it is FREE entrance! Can walk in, no longer compulsory to book prior to visit. Only for group booking of more than 20 pax are compulsory. There are 6 galleries to observe and the venue is children friendly. They even have children’s gallery. What you need to know:- §  Though you can walk in, still need to register there. §  Parking is RM5. You can still go there by LRT Bank Negara or KTM Bandaraya. Though the walk seems to be bit far in my opinion due to a bit hilly pave for 10-15mins walk. §  A quick spot check on your bags/ hand carry. §  You cannot bring bags in the venue. There are free lockers to put away the bags or just leave i...
