Roti Boy Kopi Kind of Girl

Thats right, 'kopi' (coffee) runs through my veins. I run by its fuel, and a day without it feels incomplete.

Not really a coffee connoisseur, just an avid coffee drinker. While I'm all for those artisanal coffee drinks bursting with exotic flavors with hints of delicious secrets (shoutout to my lovely niece A with J & their crowdpleaser coffee pop-ups!! 🤤), i'm also just as keen for a simple mug of a 3-in-1 instant coffee packet.

My love for this brew extends to the food imbued with its delicious essence, including R o t i K o p i B u n s!!!

Spreading this love to my precious Z, who, in this season, dreams of being a barista.

Here is an easy DIY that hits the right cuppa notes for every bite.

☕ Ingredients

1 packet coffee dissolved in 1 tbsp hot water.
Butter
Sugar
1 Egg yolk
plain Flour
White bread, or any bread

☕ Tools

Whisk
Mixing bowl
Knife / spatula
Baking paper
Toaster / oven

☕Steps

Dissolve the coffee with hot water.
In a mixing bowl, whisk the butter & sugar.
Add egg yolk.

Spread generously on one side of the bread.
Toast the bread.

📑 Tips

Next version Try 150 at 15minutes.

Watch closely, do not overcook or else you'll have a too crunchy roti.😅

Japanese potato salad, onegaishimasu!!!

Refreshing Crunch in every bite Nice touch of creamy from the potatoes and dressing Wonderful colors BEST of ALL: HEALTHY 🥗 Ingredients 3 potatoes, boiled & roughly mashed 1/2 cup of picnic ham, or 1/2 can of Spam, diced and fried. 1 cucumber, sliced 1 carrot, julienne 1/2 cup sweet corn, 1/2 cup picnic ham, diced &fried Japanese mayonnaise (*or any mayo) vinegar 1 boiled egg (optional) Salt and pepper to taste. 🥗 Steps Once the potatoes and ham are done, boiled-mashed, fried, respectively. mix altogether in a big bowl. Serve warm immediately, or it can also be served after being chilled for an hour (if in a rush 30 mins in the chiller will do.) The kids preferred without onions, so I always exclude it. Pair with some nicely fried food, like Japanese sausages, or chicken nuggets; world peace over dinner is hugely important. 💡 Inspired by: Ochikeron & Just One Cookbook
