The Best and the Most Mouthwatering Foods

Food. Yes, everyone loves food. I, my self, love food so much. I love eating and I enjoy eating (I actually dislike people who’s very strict on their diet, cause “come on, it’s foods, something you should enjoy every bites of them”, well I also know that people might have different metabolism system, so they can’t just eat anything and are afraid of bulking up, but still, you could control it, you don’t have to over eat, just enjoy your food, eat and chew slowly).

I also would like to try any foods, but yea I might not like some, because they do not feel luscious on my tongue. I would love to share you all the best and the most mouthwatering foods according to me (mostly Indonesian’s dishes). Here are the lists:

1. Rendang

It’s originally from Minangkabau, West Sumatra, Indonesia. It’s made of beef (obviously the vegetarians will hate this), coconut milk, and some indonesian’s spices. It could be cooked very spicy to medium (so if you don’t like spicy food, you might HAVE to try this one, it’s worth to try, trust me!). It usually serves with rice.

2. Bakso (Meat balls soup)

it’s made of meat (duh!!). The one that I like is meat balls with eggs in them. It usually serves with noodles or rice noodles, fried shallots, celery, scallions, mustard greens, and meat broth flavour. It’s best served when it’s hot also when it’s rainy or cold here. I usually add some chilli sauce and crackers.

3. Satay

There are lots types of satay in Indonesia, but these 3 are my most favorite. They are called, satay bumbu kacang (satay with peanut sauce), satay bumbu kecap (satay with soya sauce), and satay padang (satay with yellow sauce made of rice flour mixed with spicy offal broth, tumeric, ginger, garlic, coriander, galangal root, cumin, curry powder and salt). The satay bumbu kacang and satay bumbu kecap are usually made of whether chicken, beef, or lamb. The other one is made of beef. Satay in Indonesia usually serves with lontong (a compressed rice wrapped inside banana leaf that is then cut into small cakes as staple food replacement of steamed rice). Oh and what makes them even yummier is the fried shallots that sprinkle over them. Yumm…

4. Internet + keju (Indomie, telur, kornet + keju) / Indomie (Indonesian noodles), egg, corned beef + cheese

This is one of the yummiest food ever for me! I am a big lover of noodles, eggs, and cheese. The noodles brand is Indomie. It’s an instant noodle in Indonesia. It has lots of flavours. My favorite flavours are chicken curry and special chicken ones. It’s the simplest dish you can ever make yet fill u up! You can not really see the noodles, egg, and the corned beef in the picture, cause it has lots of cheese on top of it :9

I usually have it with chilli sauce and crackers.

5. Martabak

It’s a pancake look-a-like. It originally comes from Arab, yet in Indonesia, they make them into sweet or savory tastes. The savory one is the first picture, it’s actually eggs filling with onion, green onions, cooked ground beef and seasonings. The others are sweets, which are ketan hitam (rice pudding) fillings, peanuts filling, cheese, and chocolate and cheese filling. It sure is making you drooling ;)

6. Indomie Pizza

It’s again made of noodles, it’s called Indomie Pizza. It’s everyone’s recipe in here ( I mean in my friend’s circle, cause it’s easy to make).

Alright, I will make another list of these best and most mouthwatering foods again later. I actually have made this over a month, but I’ve saved in it as a draft lool and I forgot to update it.

Sexualizing Children?!

I am wondering, what would you do if your daughters under age pose like a model and wear inappropriate clothes and make ups? Would you be proud or would you get the blanket and tell them to cover up? I personally take the second option. I know I am not a parent yet and I might give my idea based on how my asian parents raised me as a child.

I would like you all to watch these videos first:

I would like to give my personal opinion about it. I only have basic knowledge in this case and I have not had a further learning through this case, but I am pretty sure, it is one of the types of violence that’s mentioned in the Convention of on the Right of the Children (but please correct me if I am wrong). In article 19 of the convention, it says

“Children have the right to be protected from being hurt and mistreated, physically or mentally. Governments should ensure that children are properly cared for and protect them from violence, abuse and neglect by their parents, or anyone else who looks after them …”

So, basically, it’s the government where they live who should protect them. Every country certainly has their own minimum age of when the child could be said “legal” and I am sure children under 13 are not “legal” and shall be protected.

I also think every country shall take this case seriously before this becomes something “habitual” in society and lots of irresponsible parents believe it’s something normal and it’s their right to treat their kids.

I would be very happy to get further information about this cause sharing knowledge is fun (yea right!) no, I mean it!!! lol. Thank you for reading this :)
