Rainbow Noodles, Red Edition in Mie Ayam Bakso

Happy I have one kitchenaid attachment now!Thanks hon! More to come lol.

Here is the result of my pasta press. It's one of fav kitchenaid attachment. 
But I used Pasta press for making healthy noodle here. 

Browsing the recipe is not that simple. Esp to match with this machine. I really need dough that's firm enough. Once I tried the sticky result dough, oh boy so hard to split it when it's ready to come out from the machine.

I found dapur kecil ibu blog and tried her recipe. Still not satisfied yet but not that bad. Eventho when it's cooked I broke noodles into several pieces. >_<

Beets pure

Love the way it works

I was not that patient making the beets puree. I boiled the beets but then I steamed it. I should have waited longer to make it softer. Lesson learned. Second batch I did really make good pure of beets.
It's fun making pasta/noodle with kitchenaid attachment. Just need patient and practice.

Not sticky but fragile

I still wanna browse more recipes with another flavor. Next maybe spinach.

Now talking about Mie Ayam Bakso. A famous Indonesian food that people won't get bored with it.

Very easy to make. I didn't use measurement sorry. I get used to in the kitchen.

Just prepare  ;
-Boneless breast chicken. Boiled,shredded.  Use the broth for later.
-Mushroom in a can.
-Meatballs (homemade or ready to use)
-Some steamed veggies such as baby bok choy,  ( I used beets leaves by the way here ).
- 1 cup water/stock from the boiling chicken.

Seasoning in garlic, soy sauce, mandarin sauce, oyster sauce, salt, pepper, sweet soy sauce.

Additional sauce for serving it ;
-chopped/sliced garlic, sauted 5min in olive oil and added soy sauce. 
-sriracha/hot chili for more hot just chopped green chili pepper.

Yummy!

Spinach pasta with shrimps

So happy I could make my own pasta in my kitchen! Healthier and yummier! ^^
Got simple recipe from my sis!
Just saute with garlic in olive oil,bring to taste with salt and black pepper. Just as simple as that! Additional I used shrimps. That's excellent choice for pasta.

I'm in love with Veggies Pasta! I will make another later perhaps with carrots! Hmm

Home made spinach noodle

Ready to make another experiment! This time is noodle. 
I know it will take times making it but I like learning in my kitchen and I have baby spinach in the fridge. 
Oh God glad I checked it today! It's almost bad. I know I'm not into veggies even worst when I have braces on now.
I rarely cook it unless in smoothie coz I don't like salad and hubby doesn't like spinach Indonesian soup aka sayur bening bayam lol.

By the way I don't know pasta or noodle you can say this. 
I got the recipe Mie Bayam in bahasa and this person modified from this spinach noodle 

Okay, Here is what I did today! capturing with iphone during the process. 
I used most of spinach that's been in the fridge quite long. I chose the ones that were still good of course. But I didn't measure it. It's just almost full in food processor. Like in the pic below.

I poured the mixture of flour, tapioca and salt in the food processor and then continued it by hand.

somehow it's sticky ^^ I added more flour and then let it rest in the fridge before it's back to sticky lol Oh boy I hope I did the right thing. Since the recipe doesn't mention fridge.

You have to play flour a lot in the shaping noodle since it's sticky. My small table was messy! Oh boy, it's fun tho when you finally could see what you were making.^^

To be honest,I was lil bit frustrated when I couldn't shape using pasta maker. Somehow it didn't wanna shape like it's supposed to be. So I did manually, using knife!.
The way I did was that thin dough is Rolled that's been poured with flour so that it wont stick to each other but then it was hard to separate it. Bad.

I was making the dough again flat and thin just like in the beginning. The dough was firm enough since more flour had been poured during the testing I guess. So when I put it in the pasta maker it turned out well. Woohoo!I did the second test well till last dough.

Then boiled the pasta until it's floating. Make sure enough water you put in a big pot.

After boiling it then rinse it in cold water.I did it to avoid stick to one another. Just using tap water tho. After that I arrange it in a pyrex so it won't crumbled that much. You can cook it right away, or store it in the fridge.

I like the green color of spinach here!.
Can't wait cooking it, hmm spicy fried noodle? yummy!
