..ME AND SATAY..

When season change especially when spring start..most of Japanese will celebrate it with hanami..hanami is where most of Japanese had their picnic or bbq under Sakura tree..it is the Japanese traditional custom of enjoying the beauty of flowers, "flower" in this case almost always meaning cherry blossom (sakura)..this year is my first hanami in Japan because last year I came and sakura already finished..so..for this hanami I have to prepare food for bbq.. It is hard to live in other country without any knowledge in cooking..like myself..i’m a bad cook..tapi kena belajar for my husband tummy…hihi..for this bbq I made SATAY!!!!!..my mom recipe..rasa ok la jugak..habis la yang penting..:P..so I want to share this recipe for those who live in other country than Malaysia (Kalau kat Malaysia order je…byk kat Kajang..) and for pregnant mom craving for SATAY…
