Log | Egg Tomato Udon

 

This year, I've added another resolution to last year's set of resolutions which is to cook more especially when I'm just spending the weekend by myself in my own apartment instead of balik kampung plus my parents are doing some major additions to our main residence so I won't be able to sleep in my room.

As I was looking for some easy recipe to try on YouTube, I've found this recipe that's very much appealing to my own taste plus it combines to things I love; tomato-based dish and udon i.e type of Japanese noodle. I've prepared this dish for like more than 10 times this month alone so I guess it's safe to say that I'm loving it already.

Now, you can get the ingredients quite easily from your local supermarket except maybe the udon which is why I'd pick up extra packets whenever I went out for grocery trip.

This recipe is for 2 to 3 people and you'll be needing these:-

• 2 large eggs and cooking oil.
• Thinly sliced garlic and olive oil.
• Vegetables of your choice but for my favourite is sliced carrots and mushrooms.
• 2 tomatoes preferably medium ripe.
• 3 to 5 sausages or chicken breast. Your choice. 
• Tomato pasta sauce as base.
• 2 packets of udon
• Scallion or spring onion to garnish.

Slice everything nice and well.

You can use cooking oil but I love using this olive oil for my fried dishes.

 

First thing first is to fried the eggs and put it away.

First is the garlic. Take some olive oil and fry the garlic until it's nicely yellow then add in the sliced carrots and let it cook for awhile. You can either sautéed them or just stir them well then add in the mushroom and tomato.

Then, add the sausages into the mix and cook for like a minute or two.

Then add the tomato base. I usually use the whole can for 2 to 3 people but you can use less or more; depends on how you like it.

Mix everything nice and well.

Depending on the udon that you bought, some brands required their noodles to be prepared with hot water for like a minute or two before you can directly pour into the sauce. 

Depending on my mood for the day, I'd be adding parsley leaves or Korean chilli powder at this point.

Stir fry the mix for like several minutes until the udon is nicely cooked then add in the fried eggs. Stir fry some more and have a taste. Add some salt if you'd like. 

Garnish with thinly sliced scallions or spring onions. 

Et voila! It usually takes me about 20 minutes from preparation to the finish so it's easy and quick even for a lazy busy person like myself. So I guess that's about it! Definitely let me know if you've tried this recipe and how do you tailored it to your preference by leaving comments down below. See you next post!

Stacked Saturday | Banpresto My Hero Academia The Amazing Heroes Vol. 1 to 3

These are the first three Banpresto figures for My Hero Academia as part of their The Amazing Heroes lineup featuring the characters in action poses. While the first batch of the figures were released back in 2018 till 2019, mine are the rerelease version but I don't really see the difference between these and the ones posted on myfigurecollection.com. 

Stay tuned for more updates and reviews, okay!

Funko Pop! Friday | My Hero Academia #249 Katsuki Bakugo

 

It's Friday so today, I want to share with you guys about another Funko Pop! from My Hero Academia animation the very first wave supposedly came out back in 2017 and it's featuring Katsuki Bakugo's character in his hero costume!

First off, let's see the packaging that Kacchan came in. Just to let you guys know, I got this Funko Pop! from official Malaysian distributor, Sheldonet via their official website so I'm so glad to receive it in mint condition.

Notice the round hologram MediaLink sticker? It's proof of authentication so all is good! I noticed some Pop!s that I've gotten came without any sticker so that's kind of worrisome. I bet you guys know this but it's important for me to purchase my collectibles from legitimate source.

Glad to see the lovely condition of the box truly and there's the whole set of Pop!s printed at the back so yes, I gotta collect them all as I hardly can resist it!

Look at Kacchan peeping with half of his face like that! 

There's that distributor sticker at the bottom of the box so indeed this came directly from Sheldonet.

Of course, there's Kacchan's head printed at bottom side of the box with half of it folded inwards with some product info as reference.

I love that all figures came with plastic holder (sorry, I don't know what it's called) like that so the figure floats safely in the box without the need for it to be wrapped in plastic seals and bubble wrappers. Although when it comes to Funko Pop! there's no such thing as Mint in Sealed Box term unless they're one of those store exclusives that came in big outer box with another merchandise like T-shirt so yes, there's going to be plastic wrapper around it. 

Now, let's see some close-ups for the figure!

The above are the elevations of the figure. I actually found it weird as Kacchan doesn't have his black mask and the protruding thingies on his head.

The copyright information are embossed at the bottom of his feet that confirms this figure came out back in 2017 and Made in Vietnam.

Update on 3rd September 2021, I'm currently using Gotcha Pops to protect my Pop!s so I'll check back with you guys at the end of the year and see whether the colour of the box fades or not. 

I was expecting a full hero costume for the first Kacchan's Funko Pop! but here we are. As much as I want to simply skip the whole first wave as the designs aren't that impressive to me; look at how cute Kacchan's Q Posket figure but I'd still collect them. Haha

So what do you guys think? Would you have Funko Pop! as part of your figure collection? Definitely let me know by leaving comments down below and I guess I'll be seeing you guys in my next segment post same time next week. Stay home and safely!

Log | Shu Uemura X ONE PIECE 2020 Holiday Collection

When the Japanese brand announced the collaboration with the ONE PIECE; one of the biggest, longest-running manga in the world, I was like, in all honesty felt just meh. Don't get me wrong ; I'm not a fan of this manga at all BUT the whole makeup collection was so beautifully packaged, I can't help myself getting mostly everything and therefore enable myself getting this super cute Chopper!

My regular beauty advisor told me there's less than 10 (or around that number) of this Chopper brought in from Japan and I'm lucky to receive one (after over a month getting my actual order) but I've got to say, I was quite disappointed as it doesn't come in a box as illustrated below.

My whole order came in that regular brown box with some paper bags also from the same collection and Chopper arrived separately again; a month later in a mere brown box with original tags. To this day, I am still in disbelief looking how cincai Shu Uemura Mid Valley handled my order. 

Anyway, I'm still going to enjoy the makeup items that I have bought and so far I'm so loving the warm eyeshadow palette from the collection. Do stay tuned of makeup looks that I'm going to share on my beauty blog www.myrabeautydiary.com

Take care and stay safe, guys!

Funko Pop! Friday | My Hero Academia #248 All Might

 

It's Friday so I want to share with you guys another review of Funko Pop! from My Hero Academia animation very first wave supposedly came out back in 2017 and it's featuring All Might's character in his hero costume!

First off, let's see the packaging that All Might came in. Just to let you guys know, I got this Funko Pop! from official Malaysian distributor, Sheldonet via their official website so I was so glad to receive it in mint condition as they shipped it in sturdy plastic container.

Notice the round hologram MediaLink sticker? It's proof of authentication so all is good!

There's the whole set of the first wave of Pop!s printed at the back and I gotta collect them all as I definitely can't resist it myself!

Look at All Might peeping with half of his face like that! The hair, I can't! LOL

There's that distributor sticker at the bottom of the box so indeed this came directly from Sheldonet.

Of course, there's All Might's head printed at bottom side of the box with half of it folded inwards with some product info as reference.

I love that all figures came with plastic holder (sorry, I still don't know what it's called) like that so the figure floats safely in the box without the need for it to be wrapped in plastic seals and bubble wrappers. 

Now, let's see some close-ups for the figure!

The above are the elevations of the figure. Just look at the Symbol of Peace! Awesome! ...and cute at the same time LOL

The copyright information are embossed at the bottom of his feet that confirms this figure came out back in 2017 and Made in Vietnam.

Update on August 21st 2021, I'm currently using Gotcha Pops to protect my Pop!s so I'll check back with you guys at the end of the year and see whether the colour of the box fades or not. 

This Funko Pop! is indeed the second one that came out for My Hero Academia anime and so far, I only have the three Pop!s above with All Might in his hero costume, Teacher suit and Silver Age hero costume. I so want to get the one in his Weakened form next.

So what do you guys think? Would you have Funko Pop! as part of your figure collection? Definitely let me know by leaving comments down below and I guess I'll be seeing you guys in my next segment post same time next week. Stay home and safely!
