Assalamualaikum dan salam sejahtera.
Umrah dan haji. Sudah tentu semua umat Islam di dunia ini mengimpikannya. Sama ada di masa muda atau sudah berumur, sama ada cepat atau sedikit lewat semuanya pasti ingin ke Tanah Suci Mekah dan Madinah. Namun, umrah dan haji juga tidak terlepas daripada skim penipuan yang melibatkan ribuan jemaah saban tahun.
Berdasarkan kepada statistik kes penipuan Umrah oleh Kementerian Pelancongan dan Kebudayaan Malaysia, Kementerian Perdagangan Dalam Negeri, Koperasi dan Kepenggunaan (KPDNKK) dan Polis Diraja Malaysia (PDRM) sejak tahun 2012 sehingga Oktober 2017, kes-kes penipuan ini masih lagi wujud walaupun terdapat sedikit penurunan dari setahun ke setahun.
Tiga bentuk penipuan utama :
Modus operandi adalah selalunya menawarkan pakej umrah yang murah, tajaan iaitu bakal jemaah hanya perlu membayar sebahagian sahaja dan selebihnya ditanggung serta menggunakan orang berpengaruh seperti selebriti dan ustaz.
Kecanggihan dunia teknologi tanpa sempadan pada masa kini turut membuka peluang kepada pihak yang dak bertanggungjawab untuk menjual visa dan pakej Umrah Ziarah kepada orang ramai secara berleluasa khususnya melalui media sosial. Apabila ini berlaku, orang ramai yang tertarik untuk membeli pakej Umrah Ziarah tetapi tidak dapat mengenal pas kesahihan seseorang agen atau sesebuah syarikat yang berlesen dan tulen.
Antara kes penipuan ini adalah penjualan ket kapal terbang dalam talian di mana bayaran telah pun dibuat namun tiket penerbangan tidak diperolehi.
Berdasarkan statistik Polis Diraja Malaysia (PDRM) sejak 2012 sehingga Oktober 2017, sebanyak 290 aduan telah diterima yang melibatkan nilai kerugian sebanyak RM11,529,751.00 di atas pelbagai kesalahan berkaitan.
Antara kes yang pernah dilaporkan termasuk kegagalan agensi pelancongan untuk mendapatkan visa Umrah, ada tiket penerbangan, hanya mempunyai tiket penerbangan sehala sahaja, pembatalan atau penangguhan pakej Umrah serta pelanggaran terma dan syarat pakej Umrah.
Bayangkan lagi seminggu tarikh berlepas untuk menunaikan umrah, jemaah terpaksa membayar sejumlah wang sekitar RM1,000 untuk kos-kos tambahahan yang lewat dimaklumkan pihak syarikat tersebut. Sudah pastinya kelihatan ramai jemaah kurang berpuas hati dengan makluman tersebut.
Banyak perkara buruk yang akan berlaku sekiranya kita berdaftar dengan agensi yang tidak berlesen seperti Tidak dibayar ganti rugi sekiranya pakej yang diaturkan dibatalkan dengan tiba-tiba atau jika penganjur gagal mematuhi mana-mana terma dan syarat dalam pakej berkenaan. Jemaahh juga tidak dilindungi oleh Akta Industri Pelancongan 1992.
Raza Holidays Sdn Bhd adalah sebuah syarikat 100% milikan bumiputera dan telah diperbadankan pada 20 Januari 2014. Raza Holidays Sdn Bhd merupakan syarikat berdaftar dengan Kementerian Pelancongan dan Kebudayaan Malaysia, Kementerian Kewangan Malaysia, dan Kementerian Haji Arab Saudi.
Selain itu, ia juga telah menjadi ahli gabungan International Air Transport Association (IATA) dan Malaysian Association of Tours and Travel Agents (MATTA).
Pada hujung tahun ini, Raza Holidays telah menawarkan pakej umrah musim sejuk yang berbaloi bagi mereka yang ingin menunaikan umrah bersama-sama keluarga mahupun rakan.
Senarai kepentingan yang wajib akan dinikmati selepas berdaftar dengan Raza Holidays Sdn Bhd :
1) Pengangkutan pergi dan balik KLIA disediakan
2) Solat Jumaat di Masjidil Haram dan Masjidil Nabawi
3) Melakukan ibadah umrah 4 kali
4) Menikmati nasi Arab di Taif

Healthy and full of flavor, this dashi-infused Steamed Vegetables with Miso Sesame Sauce is the quickest way to get vegetables on your plates. Served with an umami-packed dipping sauce, you will want to eat another serving!

How do you eat your vegetables every day? Do you eat it as a salad, stir fry, roasted or steamed, or try to avoid it altogether? Today’s recipe will convince you to eat more of them. You’ll learn how to steam vegetables correctly and whisk together the most delicious miso sesame sauce that makes everything taste even better.
The prep requires little effort that you can steam the veggies while you’re working on other dishes. Sounds great for a weeknight meal, isn’t it? Let’s get started.

Steaming vegetables is one of the best ways to cook vegetables as steam cooking helps to preserve all the important nutrients and fiber of the vegetables. However, they can be easily overcooked. When the vegetables are over-cooked and mushy, they lose their texture and colors which can be unappetizing.
How do we avoid that? I’m here to guide you on how to perfectly steam any vegetable in a few easy steps.
Texturally speaking, we can group the vegetables into two types: tender vs hard. The harder and denser vegetables require a longer cooking time, while tender vegetables cook a lot of faster, so it’s always important to cook them at stages. When you’re steaming vegetables, start with root vegetables such as sweet potato and carrot first, and after several minutes, you can add in tender vegetables like broccoli and zucchini into the basket.
Each vegetable, whether hard or tender, requires the same amount of time to steam. To achieve the perfect crisp-tender texture, you need to cut them into uniform sizes so they cook roughly at the same rate.
One trick to shorten the overall steaming time is to cut the hard vegetables slightly smaller or thinner so that they cook faster.
I also like to take vegetables out of the steamer when they are still a little bit crunchy. The residual heat will cook the vegetables slightly more so you don’t have to steam the vegetables until completely done. By the time you sit at the table, they might be gone mushy.

Here’s a quick guide on steaming times for vegetables.
If you want to cook several kinds of vegetables in a batch, here’s an easier method that I follow:
I usually adjust the steaming time based on how I cut the vegetables (slices vs. peels – see my recipe for gobo and carrot) and how big/small I cut them.

Steamed vegetables are absolutely wonderful on its own or with very little seasoning. However, I do like to serve steamed vegetables with different Japanese-style dipping sauces once in a while, and one of our favorites is Miso Sesame Sauce.
For this Steamed Vegetables recipe, I partner with Hikari Miso® and used Hikari Miso® Organic Miso – White Miso. It is made of 100% USDA Certified Organic rice and soybeans and is additive-free. It has a light yellow color original to Shinshu-style miso. A high volume of rice koji produces its mild taste and smooth texture.
If you’re interested to try it out, you can purchase Hikari Miso from a majority of Japanese/Asian grocery stores or on Amazon. It is my favorite brand of miso paste. There is also a variety of miso, each with a different flavor you can use for various purposes.

The nutty flavor and savoriness of the sauce go terrifically well with vegetables. The key is to lightly dip the steamed vegetables into the sauce, without overcoating them. You want to enjoy the natural sweetness of the vegetables and the sauce is to enhance the eating pleasure.

It’s always better to use a bigger pot where steam can go around the vegetables.
You’ll need at least 1 inch deep of water, just enough to steam the vegetables. You can use the leftover water for cooking. In fact, we use dashi – Japanese stock – to create dashi-infused steam to cook the vegetables in this recipe.
It’s important to add the vegetables after the water is completely boiling. If you add the vegetables while the water has yet to boil, the newly created steam will turn back into water droplets when it touches cold vegetables. As a result, vegetables will get more watery. Therefore, add the vegetables when there is plenty of steam coming out from the steamer.
You want to make sure lots of steam is continuously being created, and your heat setting should be on medium-high. When you add the vegetables, the temperature will drop quickly, so keep the heat on high for 2-3 minutes first.
Don’t rely on the cooking time so much. Even with the same vegetables, steaming time can be different based on how you cut the vegetables. The best way is to use a bamboo skewer and see if it goes through.

The most common way to steam vegetables is by using a pot with a good fitting lid and a metal steamer basket. What if you don’t have a steamer? Don’t worry! You can still enjoy this steamed vegetable recipe without it. Here’s a fantastic hack I learned from a friend:
Make three tennis-size balls with aluminum foil and place them on the bottom of your cast iron pot.
Add 1-2 inches of water and place a ceramic plate on top of the tinfoil balls!
This is not from my friend’s method, but if your lid is flat, cover it with a large kitchen towel so condensation won’t drop on the food and make it watery.

I purchased this donabe steamer at Toiro Kitchen & Supply in Los Angeles. The owner Naomi-san has a beautiful online shop where they ship worldwide.
Steamed vegetables are great all year around, but it’s more fun to serve at a table with a portable stovetop especially in fall and winter time. Colorful, bright and extremely nutritious, they are what good eating is about. And don’t forget to enjoy the vegetables with the lip-smacking miso sesame sauce!

Healthy and full of flavor, this dashi-infused Steamed Vegetables with Miso Sesame Sauce is the quickest way to get vegetables on your plates.

Grind 6 Tbsp sesame seeds.


Add 2 Tbsp soy sauce, 2 Tbsp sesame oil, 4 Tbsp mirin, and 2 Tbsp rice vinegar. Mix well.

Check the taste and add kosher salt if necessary. I added ¼ tsp salt.



Wash the gobo really well and peel it thinly with a peeler. Soak in water immediately to avoid color changes and change the water once. Drain and set aside.




Hold each asparagus, snap and discard the shorter bottom end. Cut the asparagus in half.






Lastly, add the leafy part of the napa cabbage and mini tomatoes. Cook for 2 more minutes.

Insert a bamboo skewer to check the doneness of denser vegetables. If it goes through, it’s ready to eat! Stop the steaming when the vegetables are still a bit crunchy since the residual heat will continue to cook the vegetables.


Dashi: Awase Dashi (regular dashi) or vegan/vegetarian friendly Kombu Dashi.
