Minced Beef Steak
Hey ho!! me back, after several failed attempts on writing on what's been in my head.
Last week I'd tried this new recipe I've eavesdropped from my co-worker. A basically beef steak, but instead of using whole meat, this recipe calls for minced meat. Suitable for Indonesian taste, even my dad said it yummy. Here we go,
Ingredients:
- 300 gr minced meat
- 2 tbs bread crumbs
- 1 giant union, chopped
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg powder
- 1 tsp pepper powder
- 1 egg
- 2 tbs butter
Additional :
- a pinch of pepper
- 100 ml water
- a pinch of maizena
- Sweet soy ketchup
Mix well all the ingredients, leave alone the butter for frying. Make the mixture into burger meat shape and fry it one by one with butter.
When all the meat is cooked (based on your own preferences: done, well done) add 100 ml water (or broth if you like), a pinch of pepper and maizena, cook until thickened. Add sweet ketchup if you like.
Serves well with mixed vegetables.

Alejandro Sanz & The Corrs - Una noche
Since long people keep on asking me why I'm such a geek if it come to Spain and all its phernalia. I am usually just smiling and give them cliche answer, as for me short story can't do justice :)
But long story short, one thing that pull the trigger is this song and clip, beautifully performed by Andrea Corr and Alejandro Sanz in Una Noche, a spanish version of previously aired One Night. N a picture of Alejandro stayed in my wallet for such a long time until my current boyfriend gave me a photo, well.. So I decided just to replaced it.
But Alejandro still is a model for what a perfect guy for me, so does his home land. One day, I wish I can pay him a visit and listen to him playing me a song. hahahahaha... Still I'm so naive :p
Okay, just enjoy the song.

Luna Sea - I For You
I don't recognised many people has anything to say about this Jpop ballad song, but I'm not one of them for sure. This song was very famous during the airing of dorama - Japanese drama, mostly TV series, named Kamisama Mou Sukhosi Dake. This dorama too is highly recommended, starring Takeshi Kaneshiro and kyoko Fukada.
And in case you wanna sing along, or find out what the hell is the song is all about, here is the lyrics ;)
nee hontou wa dare mo nee ai senai to iwarete
kowagari no kimi to de ai yatto sono imi ni kizuita
kizutsuku tame ima futari deatta nara kanashi sugiru yo
kokoro kara kimi ni tsutaetai...
kitto tada hontou no kimi no sugata wo motomete
mada bukiyou ni warau ne mada kanashimi ga ni au kara
kimi to de au tame dake ni sou umareta nara kaerareru ka na...
kokoro kara kimi ni tsutaetai
kizutsuki sugita kedo mada ma ni au yo
kokoro kara kimi wo ai shiteru
kimi ni furu itami wo nugutte agetai subete I for you
kokoro kara kimi ni tsutaetai
kimi no egao itsu mo mitsumeraretara
kokoro kara kimi wo ai shiteru
kimi ni furu hikari wo atsumete agetai subete
I for you

Richard Marx - Take This Heart
This song titled Take This Heart is written and performed by American contemporary pop/rock musician Richard Marx, whom is being widely known for numerous melancholic hits like Now & Forever, Right Here Waiting and Hazard.
Despite of his famous "slow ballads" style, he also has numerous upbeat hits like this one I present you. I like the way he did this love song, so upbeat, manly and of course cool. Digged deep from my early teenage memories, I hope you enjoy, Take This Heart.
George Michael - Jesus To A Child
Today I present you Jesus To A Child, one of the most beautiful George Michael's song. This deep melancholic song is a tribute to his late Brazilian lover Anselmo Feleppa whom died two years later because of AIDS related sickness. And this song is also a coming back breakthrough after his long mourning.
For me, Jesus To A Child has a special place in my heart, yeahh.. for several personal reasons you might not want to know. I hope you can get something meaningfull in the lyrics, or enjoy the melodies anyhow. Cheers..
