Crazie Food: Cheese with Egg Wrap and Peanut Butter

HaH!!! This is the first post for my crazie food label. 

It's been created an hour ago and known as Cheese with Egg Wrap and Peanut Butter. 
Coincidentally, my mom called me up to ask how I feel and I was telling her what I was having and she seriously finds me not well! LOL

I am down today with cold and fever and I am feeling a bit crazzzie with my taste bud today! 
I've eaten rice and chicken soup for lunch, but I'm feeling not satisfied as I can't taste anything with the poor tongue.
Haaccchummmm. Cold! Sniff Sniffff





What I did and I thought it was satisfying fo this odd craving- hence I'm sharing it with you! 
It's up to you to taste it as I am not responsible for any consequences. As for me, so far so good! - Some might finds this urghh.yucks..euwww..blueeekk.... but it's a personal opinion so I'm good either way =)

Here's the crazie recipe:

 Ingredients of Cheese with Egg Wrap and Peanut Butter:

1 tsp Oil
1 tortilla wrap
1 egg

1 piece of single cheese
peanut butter


How to make the Cheese with Egg Wrap and Peanut Butter:

Heat a pan with a little oil. 
Fry the egg
Heat the wrap-  both side until you see darker dots on the tortilla
Place the egg on the wrap and stack the cheese on it. 
Fold it to be an envelope.

Place the wrap envelope on a plate and spread the peanut butter on the envelope. Be generous on it. 

The motive of eating the food is to achieve the gooey of egg taste- the mild taste of cheese with some sweetness of the peanut butter all together.


Nothing left behind - Cheese with Egg Wrap and Peanut Butter

share me your opinion if you want =)

It's all about - good food + good company & great entertainment.  

Let's go Oriental

I have been cooking Beef Char Kueh Tiow for my family since I was younger.

The recipe of Beef Char Kueh Tiow or Beef Stir Fry Noodle that I used was originally taken from a website. However, I can't recall which website since I have been using the recipe for a decade! (It sounds ancient, but I was very young then, and still young now, but that statement just made me sound old! ) =P. 
I made it luxurious by adding the side ingredients lavishly. It seems to be more fulfilling and satisfying. Yummmm..

Beef Char Kueh Tiow is a easy dish to whip up and delicious!
Prep time: 10 mins
Cooking time: 10 mins

A handful Chives
Soy sauce 1 cup (1/4cup thick sauce and  1/4 cup light + 1/2cup water )
Salt to taste and sugar (a pinch to reduce the chilli heat)
1 egg (optional)

Let's Cook! Got to be fast!
