And, I did today.
Went to SuperIndo to get whatever it would take and there was in the supermarket that would allow me to make kebab. Obviously, I knew that I wouldn't be able to get the proper ingredients. I knew I had to improvise.
So, I thought about chicken nuggets and chicken sausages to replace the lamb. Ready-to-fry lumpia skin to replace the bread. Lettuce, baby tomatoes and celery, to replace whatever else you would find in a roll of kebab(!) :p :p
Well, okay, I didn't make kebab but "kebab".
First step was dry-frying the meats.
Did it in a HappyCall pan. I call it the magical pan. I hope you've heard of such branded pan otherwise you may have no idea why it's magical. Hehe.
After putting the dry-fried meats aside, I put the lumpia skin on the hot pan and started filling it with all the ingredients in good proportion, and not to forget some olive oil. Put some pepper, salt, and oregano. 
Rolled, and let dry and cooked. 
I had three whole rolls out of four. Mom got a bit, so did dad. Hehehe. They were totally fine and said it tasted tasty! What full lunch! I got very sick of kebab for a few hours since then! Hehehe -<^o^>-Since I still had (still have!) a lot of the ingredients unused, I thought of making salad for dinner.
Voila!So, that was how my day went today. I will check out your blog in a few minutes to see how yours went! :D
Nite nite!

hahaha, so this is your own way of making "innovative" kebabs?? errr, looks like spring roll to me more than a kebab, hahahaha.. and using nuggets is just so, errr, fusion~~ :D
ReplyDeleteEhehe I know... in my head I was all about 'I'm making kebabs' but I knew I wasn't! Hahaha
DeleteYou need to see the show I saw last night. Anyone seeing it would have a crave for kebabs! :p
Was it Anthony Bourdain? I too recently saw a docu of him in Turkey.
DeleteOMG, yes it was!! I knew the guy as he appears so frequently! I just couldn't recall his name when I wrote this post ;))
DeleteThanks!
Yes, it was him! I saw it on TLC channel
Send one kebab over pls. =)
ReplyDeleteHeheh... you wouldn't like it! ;))
DeleteIt was just okay and weird! Haha
Looks like they would taste quite good, Rad. Kebab means something different to me here--usually meat and fruit and/or vegetables skewered on a stick and grilled. Good for you to try this on your own. I bet your family liked having you cook for them. The little hair man is cute! haha! :)
ReplyDeleteI know what you meant. We would generally call that satay here :) I will make more 'kebabs' for my parents hehe
DeleteAnd, yes, the grass is growing taller. Hehehe. I don't think I will trim it anytime soon, though. Wannna wait until the grass grows bushier
To kebab or not to kebab --- whatever you call them, they look delicious! :D
ReplyDeleteAhaha yes they look delicious! Hmm atually they were, too! :p
DeleteIf only you could serve what you cooked to your readers over the internet... *hungry*
DeleteIn 10 years that should be possible! :))
DeleteAmen!
Goes...you can surely whip up a mean Kebab. Makes me wanna eat but too bad...doctor's order. Have to go slow with the food :p
ReplyDeleteOh, I hope you're okay!
DeleteBtw, the HappyCall pan is really that good? Saw several blogger blogged about it. Really tempting to get one
ReplyDeleteIt's magical! You gotta have one! It doesn't make anything in it sticky.. if you know what I mean.
DeleteWell, you were creative. And they do look good. :)
ReplyDeleteHehehe. They also tasted goo :p
Deleteoh man, i didn't realize you're a good cook too! is there anything you can't do (you're a multi-linguist, you're a great interior decorator, etc). the food looks scrumptious (and creative!), i'd definitely order it if i saw it on the menu :D
ReplyDeleteAww, Sean! You're too kind! Thank you. But, who cannot make such cooking! Ahaha it was very simple! :p
DeleteYou would order it? That's an honor for me to hear that from such a food tasting expert like you, Sean! Hehehe. Thanks!
Ha! Such wonderful creativity! Creative not only with decorating, but in the kitchen too. :-)
ReplyDeleteEhehhe, if I wasn't hungry, I wouldn't be making those "kebabs" :p hehe
Deletexixixixi never though using "lumpia skin" to make such this meal, nice :D
ReplyDeleteHehehe I wished I had had the proper kebab bread, though!
Deletelooks delicious, no wonder its 3 for you, one for your parents..hehe
ReplyDelete:-)
Ehehehe I really liked it. I made some more and mom liked it again! ;))
DeleteRad, you must be really handy around the house. The food, though side-tracked a little, looks great.
ReplyDeleteAhaha... thanks! It tasted great as well!
Deletedamn man that looks good! :O *drools* I love kebab, or "kebab" whatever, I love food, and you seem to cook a lot (cookies/cakes last time) I will love you if you cook for me <3 how about that? sounds tempting? no? *sigh~
ReplyDeletewhy is every food have to be so good looking? or is it only my eyes? or is it only me who's always hungry? and why aren't you raping my blog yet? (or have you?) are you leaving me alone in the dark corner? *sobs* but I thought we were friends~~ *cue dramatic music*
wow, I seem to talk more in someone's blog than in mine.. :|
Ahahahahahah I did visit your blog sometimes. You just rarely update it! ;))
DeleteDon't blame your eyes, I'm just a great cook, admit it! ;p ;p hehe, no I'm not!
If you seem to talk more here, then talk about foods in your blog :p
you see, here's my problem, when I'm in a cute cafe with cute food... I ALWAYS forgot to take picture, when I see food I would be like... "OOOHH FOOOD!!!! nomnomnomnomnomnom~" and seconds later... "aaaaaahhh!! I forgot to take pic!!!" *cries in the corner*
Deletei have not had lunch and i am now starring at your pictures. stomach croaks...croaks louder...i am tempted to sniff the screen and maybe lick it too.
