One Pound Fish - Shahid Nazir

Hey, so this week is the most surprising weeks for me. Why?

I inspired by Muhammad Shahid Nazir who work on the fish stall at Queen's Market, Upton Park, London. His employer ask him to attract customers by singing. He soon composed a song call 'One Pound  Fish'.

Here is the original video at the fish stall recorded by passing customers on 2012.

After a while, it became an internet smash and a viral video after his customers uploaded videos of him performing his song onto YouTube. Now this video became 12 millions viewers.

In November 2012, he was signed by Warner Music as recording artist and released a dance version of his song. A video which featured Bollywood-style dancers.

Here is the music video

From fish seller to singer.

Anyway Muhammad Shahid Nazir, good luck for your future :)

Pavlova Recipe

People said Pavlova near Alexis is very delicious. But I never try. When I dined outside, I just eat main course only. Rarely eat dessert. For dessert, better do on my own at home. And it easy to make. Besides, can eat together with family.

I've made this Pavlova twice. Recipes are very easy and cheap also ! I studied this Pavlova from Youtube. In this modern era, Youtube is a place to gain knowledge you know? Ihiks.



This is the recipes that I use. Very simple right? The white bottom is egg separator. I'm not pro to separate the white egg with the yolk just like that.

MATERIALS

•  150ml eggwhite (approximately 4 eggs)
•  1 cup (220g) caster (superfine) sugar
•  2 tablespoons cornflour (cornstarch), sifted
•  2 teaspoons white vinegar
•  1 cup (250ml) single (pouring) cream
•  ½ cup passionfruit pulp (approximately 4 passionfruit)
•  250g strawberries, hulled and halved

Preheat oven to 150°C (300°F). Place the eggwhite in the bowl of an electric mixer and whisk until stiff peaks form. Gradually add the sugar, whisking well, until the mixture is stiff and glossy.

  Add the cornflour and vinegar and whisk until just combined. Shape the mixture into an 18cm round on a baking tray lined with non-stick baking paper. Reduce oven to 120°C (250°F) and bake for 1 hour 20 minutes. Turn the oven off and allow the pavlova to cool completely in the oven. Whisk the cream until soft peaks form. Spread over the pavlova, top with passionfruit and strawberries and serve immediately. Serves 8–10.

  * You’ll know when the meringue is stiff and glossy because the mixture will have tripled in volume and stands up when the beaters are lifted.

  * The low heat puffs up the meringue while the long cooking time dries it out to give you a lovely crisp shell.

  * Store your pavlova, undressed, in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.

Car accessories you should have.

When we talk about car accessories, people always think kinds of radio touchscreen, speaker, spoiler, LED lights, leather seats, sport rims, etc.. But do you have thought about other accessories as below?

1. Baseball bat

With the criminal case now that more widespread and unexpected, you must have something to self defense. At least if criminals saw you hold this thing, they actually also fear. Thus, if the criminals have a gun and you guys feel the gun is real, what you need to is just give up la. Haha. This thing are available at Giant Supermarket. 

2. Cutter

Besides using as a weapon, we also can use it when emergency. for example, this tools can be use as an aid in case the seat-belt is jammed. It also can use to open the plastic junk when go back to the village or picnic.

3. Torchlight

Although there is a light in car, its not suitable to on the light when driving, other people can see what you doing in car. 

Furthermore, the light cant torch like under seat or under dashboard. That's why this small torchlight is needed. Is not easy to find things in the dark. If the mobile phone drop, at least we can still driving. But, if your Touch n Go card drop down under the seat while in front the toll gate? How? After all, if a car breakdown at night, this thing really helpful. Plus, its cheap.

4. Notebook and pen

Although this day and age people are too do not like to write, like typing, but this conventional way is actually very helpful. Yes, smartphone only just a 'smart' phone. But the battery not smart. In case accident occurred, you guys can write down the car number plate, what type of car, driver name, time involved in accidents, etc. Very useful and simple. All this written evidence are very convenient for us to believe.

5. Old newspaper

Yes, actually is good of your car keep some old newspaper. Can use it for cover your seat or carpet if you buys things that wet / sticky / oily.

Ok, 5 is enough.

Tips Reduce / Maintain Weight Loss

I love to eat. Not only me, but this is re-generate from my mother.
We don't mind the food expensive or cheap. We 'main belasah saja'.

In the same time I always monitor my weight because all I the things i do have reason.
The way I eat, the food i eat, exercise that I do.

When I feel I need to increase my weight, I had to change my lifestyle. This tips is from my experience, from my 'Diet Diary'. Note: Diet means eating ya. It doesn't means have to eating less. That's why doctors recommend 'guard your diet'. Meaning take care of your diet. Is wrong when someone using  'I'm on a diet'.

To Reduce / Maintain Weight Loss.

1. Eat less but a lot of times. But even if you at restaurant where a large portion of food, hmm I had to finish it. For days like that, I just eat 3 times only.

2. Ever heard of "Breakfast like a king, lunch like prince, dinner like a pauper / Beggars'? Why do most lively breakfast and damper flood of merriment through day of yours? The reason for the large breakfast, we have the WHOLE DAY to digest it and burn fat. When dinner, the last meal we continued to rest and sleep. So my dinner was simple and small often the portion. Big breakfast, medium lunch, dinner a bit. Practice.

3. Since I've grown, I think I tasted all the delicious water fruit punch smoothies shake mocktail juice ect. So I already started to stop drinking sweet fancy water. Now all the delicious foods that will get the best partner, the mineral water. It's mineral water all the way. Just drink yogurt drink in the morning (rarely). Breakfast like a king right?

4.Detox. Try to berry (name for 'buang air besar') once a day. It have to be consistence because its not good to keep toxic in the body. Thanks god my digestive system is good, can auto berry every morning LOLOLOLOL TOO MUCH INFO. But for someone that hard to berry everyday: try drink Milo every morning after breakfast. Eat banana everyday.

Goodluck !

5. Detox, still on the topic of detoxification (detox). The reason I like crazy eating dessert because its so much sugar in the body. Sugar can made us fat.! So, other than trying to hit back with mineral water, every night before bed I will drink green tea! Green tea is very tasty while still hot / warm. Try love, must be slowly.

6. Don't be lazy to sweat. Every morning before bath I will dancing. Someone are wondering how to dance? OMG You All'sssss. Just dance. Cool down your sweating after 30minits and go to shower. 

7. Eat in a bowl and use a spoon. Okay, this tips is for not to overeat Mama's cooking. Mama cooks is super duper delicious okay, and for me,  if eat using hand I always want to add some rice. But be remind before you want to eat with your hand make sure wash your hand first ya !

Thank you. Oops! For weight loss tips raise another entry ya!
