Hubby is home.. and i was up for the challenge to cook for him something nice. After spent a few hours in the kitchen,lucky this rendang came out perfectly.. feww.
It's actually not hard to cook for him because he eats everything. He will say that he doesn't and that he won't eat much but serve him something and he'll surely eat it..
