~Batang Burok~

A new recipe that I have learned from my Sarawakian’s friend. Neyna.

I love Batang Burok since I was a kid.

However, this Batang Burok has different taste than the ordinary Batang Burok which you buy in store.

This is Sarawak Batang Burok or some people might call it as Popia Sarawak (I guess^^)

It is very easy to be made but need some patience!!

~Batang Burok~

Bahan-bahan:

A-

1 cawan tepung kacang hijau (algappas or babas)

1 cawan gula (kisar sampai halus)

1 ½ cawan kacang (digoreng & dikisar sampai halus)

½ cawan susu tepung

(for those who don’t really like powdered milk, you can reduce it and vice versa)

B-

Popia

1 egg (as a glue)

minyak

Cara-cara:

A-

1.     1.  Goreng semua bahan A tanpa minyak dengan api perlahan sampai sebati dan naik bau. (jangan sampai hangus ye)

2.      2.  Letak tepi

B-

3.     1.  Potong popia menjadi 6 keping. (potong 2 dulu, then potong jadi 3 pulak. So, 1 keping popia, dpt 6 keping)

4.     2.  Then, gulung helaian popia yang dipotong dengan pen (besar) atau lebih baik straw cendol dan lekatkan hujung popia dengan telur.

**Tujuan buat camni supaye popia tu jadi cam batang dan nampak cantik.

5.     3.  Goreng popia sampai kekuningan.

6.     4. Masukkan popia yang digoreng ke dalam bahan A.

7.     5.  Gaulkan popia dengan bahan A sampai popia bersalut dengan bahan A.

P/S: 

Sepuluh hari terakhir Ramadan adalah saat di mana Rasulullah SAW meningkatkan amalan dengan berjaga malam, beriktikaf dan mengejutkan ahli keluarga untuk bersama dengannya.

Berlalunya sebahagian besar dari hari-hari Ramadan sewajarnya menimbulkan kecemasan kepada kita. Apakah selama 19 hari kita berpuasa benar-benar telah menjadikan kita manusia yang bertakwa atau sebaliknya?

Imam Bukhari dan Muslim meriwayatkan maksudnya: Aisyah r.a meriwayatkan bahawa Nabi Muhammad SAW apabila masuknya sepuluh malam terakhir (Ramadan) baginda menghidupkan malam, baginda mengemaskan kainnya dan baginda mengejutkan isterinya (yakni tidak bersama dengan isteri).

Jom ikut Sunnah Rasulullah!!

Jom rebut 10 malam terakhir!
