Bak Kuet Teh


Just follow the instructions behind the packet but you need to add your own garlic and pepper if you like spicy.

It smells very nice with those herbs. Very good.

Banana Wrapped in Spring Roll Skin

This is so yummy and delicious. I saw this recipe in the internet from many bloggers.

Cut the banana into half and add some brown sugar and wrapped them in spring roll wrappers/popiah skin.

The top two are with brown sugar while the other two are without.

The results - it tasted so good whether there is brown sugar or not. YUMMY! The skin is so cripsy and when you bite into it, you tasted the goodness of the banana.

Baked Pork Chops

I baked these pork chops but is not so cripsy as those deep fried in oil. Healthier because no oil used but it is tougher. Marinate with light soya sauce and sesame oil and ketchup and sugar to taste. Bake at 180 deg celsius for almost 1 hour and keep turning them every 15 to20 minutes for even baking. Towards the end I raise the temperature to 200 deg so they can be baked faster.

Step by Step of making agar agar

Refer to my previous recipe of making agar agar.

First make agar agar with coconut then put in fridge to set. When set, use cookie cutters to cut out shapes.



The below photo is another tray with of agar agar layer of coconut with chendol.

Then make another agar agar without coconut and pour over these layers with patterns cut out and put in fridge to set. After setting, cut into squares, should looked like the below photo.

Now put those already cut out patterns of coconut or chendol agar agar into moulds. Then pour plain or coloured agar agar into the moulds and put in fridge to set.

After setting, they should looked like these.

The above are with chendol while the below photo are with chendols.
These inspirations are taken from baking mom blogspot.
