MaNgO CheEseCaKE

OOwhhh..this is really awesome!!!!
just feel like experimenting & modifying the original recipe..hehhehehhehe, I had substitued sour cream to mango yogurt, instead. And i add mango puree in there..!! Mine looks small as i had just made half portion of original recipe. Lets see the recipe for 20cm pan size..(original size)
  • 2 tsd gelatine
  • 4tsb hot water
  • 1/3 cup of sugar
  • 2 eggs yolk
  • 250gm cream cheese
  • 500gm mango pulp - make puree
  • 300m mango yogurt
  • 1 tsb orange juice (optional)
  • Mango for decoration (optional)
Method:
  • Prepare the base into the pan and chill it.
  • Beat cream cheese with sugar till the sugar well blended. Except gelatine and hot water, add in the remaining ingredients into cream cheese.
  • Disolve gelatine into hot water and add-in into batter.
  • Stir well and pour the batter into prepared base.
  • Chill it for a while, allow to half set and decorate with mango. Or you can proceed with the decorating when it fully firm.
  • I left it over-night in the refregerator to get nice & firm tecture.

Cheese cake secret..

Care to share this with everyone..i found this somewhere, but i have forgotten the source..

For the best result with baked cheesecake:
  • Do not over beat the batter
  • Bake in the lower half of the recommended oven temperature. Allow to cool in the oven without opening the door before chilling in the refregerator
  • Should the cheesecake turn out with crack surface, simply top the cooled cheesecake with a mixture of 300ml of sour cream, 2 tablespoon icing sugar & vanilla. Bake for another 1o minutes at 180 degrees or until lightly set

Happy trying.. :)

CaRAmEliSEd MaNGo wITh IcE cRreAm

The simplest dessert i ever made..

It's a mango season now..and i'm living with a 'mango mad guy'..who else..must be Rezan lerr...

He bought the whole box of mango last sunday for only $9.99..damn cheap!! But..for me, it's an 'unfortunate' when i need pulling & pushing my brain to think & to create something with them in order to finished it up! I had tried lassi, mango prawn salad, juices..and this dessert..


So let's try this, i just need :

-Just-ripe medium size of mango
-Brown sugar
-Ice cream, to serve

1. Slice cheeks from mangoes. Score in a honeycomb pattern & lightly coat the cut-side with brown sugar.

2. Line the base of a large non-stick frying pan with baking paper. Heat pan over medium heat. Place sugar-side down in pan, press gently. Cook for 2 minutes or untill sugar caramelises.

3. Transfer to a serving plate and serve with ice cream.

Beef Noodle Salad

Ni lagi satu penyelamat waktu malas, tersangat lapar & nak makan cepat!! tak payah tumis, tak payah goreng..gaul2kan jerrr..one of my favourite. dapur pun tak berminyak2 masa masak :D

Senang je nak buatnyerr cuma perlukan:

1. Egg noodle (bahasa melayu nyerr mee telur, ade kerr?)
2. Sayur2 (kobis, carrot, capsicum, coriender/daun kesum, timun, tomato) - semua tu amik sikit2 jerrr
3. Daging dihiris nipis, rebus sampai empuk
4. Sauces (fish sauce, oister sauce, lemon juice, sesame oil, cili)

Cara nak buat:
1. Since saya guna serbuk cili, saya rebuskan daging tu dengan cili sekali, sebab nak bagi ci;i tu masak. Kalau tak nanti sakit perut plak makan cili tak masak
2. Egg noodle, celur sampai lembut & ketepikan
3. Sayur tu potong2 ikut suka..campurkan dengan daging & noodle tadi. Campurkan jugak ngan sauces ikut selera masing.
4. Garnish dengan parsley

FoReVeR yOuNg....aLpHaVille

Sambil2 masak tuuu jom layan lagu ni sattt..suka sangattt dengan lagu niii..dari dolu2 lagiiii..



%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Lets dance in style, lets dance for a while
Heaven can wait were only watching the skies
Hoping for the best but expecting the worst
Are you going to drop the bomb or not?

Let us die young or let us live forever
We dont have the power but we never say never
Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip
The musics for the sad men

Can you imagine when this race is won
Turn our golden faces into the sun
Praising our leaders were getting in tune
The musics played by the madmen

Forever young, I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever, forever and ever

Some are like water, some are like the heat
Some are a melody and some are the beat
Sooner or later they all will be gone
Why dont they stay young

Its so hard to get old without a cause
I dont want to perish like a fading horse
Youth is like diamonds in the sun
And dimonds are forever

So many adventures couldnt happen today
So many songs we forgot to play
So many dreams are swinging out of the blue
We let them come true

Ayam Sereyy..


Word 'Serey' originally from 'Serai' which means lemongrass. Most Malaysian call it 'serai' but Indonesian pronounces it in different accent 'serey'.


It's depends on how we want it to taste to be..hot, mild or sweet. But for me it will taste great if we blend those 'sweet & spicy' with a touch of lemongrass and belacan.



Ingredients:
1.300gm boneless chicken, marinate with tumeric & salt. (doesnt matter to substitute to chicken with bone)
2. Garlic, onion, 2 stalk of lemongrass - blend
3. Chili powder or chilli boh
4. Oil, salt & sugar

Method:
1. Deep fry the chicken till tender & brownish for both side. Remove from the heat and set aside
2. Heat remaining oil (not too much) over medium heat, then stir-in all the blended ingredients, including chilli. Add in little bit water just in case it turn out to dry
3. Mix in the chicken, cook for 2-3 minutes. That's it :D

Just before serving, topping some sambal belacan on it. Taste will be great with blended tomato in that sambal belacan, with little bit 'runny' tecture. Done!

Cherry VS Grape

Are they cherry tomato or grape tomato???

I bought them as cherry tomato. Yeappp..i'm very sure!!! As soon as i reached home on that day, i had thrown one of them in the small pot. Just trying my luck :D.
Soon as they start growing, i transfered them to a bigger pot. Thats all i did!! and they start growing, became bigger and bigger....tooks monthsssss hehheheheh because the seeds was sown in wrong season!! and finally...the tomato came out and i was a bit supprised when they turn out as grape tomato. They taste great anyway..juicy & sweet! As sweet as me..hehehehhe..
