Maira - fasting and food preference

My firstborn Maira puasa sunat last Thursday. Her buka puasa menu? A simple cokodok pisang with crysanthemum tea and rice with daging dendeng.

This daughter of mine have a very simple taste in food. Her staple -- plain roti canai, Gardenia bread with no spread, white rice with telur dadar, daging dendeng and fish curry.

Her more sophisticated menu of choice? Chicken tandoori with plain naan. But only the famous Ampang tandoori uncle. Other place tak nak. She also likes nasi tomato and daging bistik, also a fav of daddy's (recipe Tok Mama).

She is so picky about everything! For fruit, she only takes grapes and oranges. Other fruits like watermelon and papaya, have to paksa and jegel mata before she finally takes one or two cuts. But she lurrrvessss durian!

Dessert? Only the plain agar-agar merah and cream caramel pudding (I make instant ones from WhiteWings). No kuih Melayu for her, even karipap! And she only eats chocolate cake and vanilla ice-cream. That's it.

Fast food? Only Nando's and occasionally KFC (where she'd go for the buns!).

This is just another of her trait that's so opposite from her sister Misha who'd wallop Fettucine Carbonara, Sashimi and Baba Ghanoush anytime!
