Simit

Simit is a bread like food, from Turkey. Tasted kinda nice, that's why wanted to try making.



The one I made doesnt taste like the one we had in Turkey, but rather like biscuit. It is still nice and at one go I took a few.. hehehe....



Next time, will make it thicker and include yeast, coz the original recipe I got from the internet just now was without yeast, so it never get to "grow".

My Failed Pao




Attempted to make pao last weekend, but failed in the making... hehehe....

But still edible, just the skin is not fluffy and nice look like the one make by mummy.

Buttery Spicy Macaroni + ABC Chicken Soup

Had a very funny odd combo dinner few days back, buttery spicy macaroni + ABC Chicken Soup...

I mixed 3 tablespoon of evaporated milk, 1 tablespoon of butter, 1 tablespoon of chopped chilli, 2pcs of chopped shallot, 1 tablespoon of fish sauce, 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon of thai smoke fish paste chilli and 1 tablespoon of thai chilli sauce.



Pistachio Cake

Saw in the Asian Food Channel, Sugar, Pistachio Cream Cake. But since I dont like cream stuff, I decided to change the recipe a little to make a normal cake. To make it better, I bake this using the bread maker instead of normal oven...

  • 1.5 cups of grounded pistachio
  • 2 tablespoon of sugar (original recipe is 1 cup)
  • 4 egg yolks
  • 1 cup of flour
  • 1 egg white
  • 1 teaspoon of salt (shud reduce coz too salty)
  • 1/2 cup of milk
  • 4/5 of a butter

Throw everything in the bread maker, process like normal bread... and voila, done. Taste kinda nice.... but would be better if the pistachio is less fine.
