This picture was taken in my daughter's apartment. It was the night before I came back to Singapore from my visit to London. I cooked for her two Thai friends, Maaew, Kookup and her flatmate, Farah a simple dinner of Prima Deli Chicken Curry, stirred fried Spinach with garlic and Fried Egg. We had Nutella Pecan Pie with Ben and Jerry Ice Cream for dessert. Had the opportunity to pray a short prayer of blessings for them as they study over there.
Made this Prima Deli Laska with chicken, fish ball, tau pok and siow pai chye for one of our dinners. Tried to cook as much of her favourite homecook food as possible when I was there.
Could not resist buying their fresh raspberries from Borough's Market. Made some Raspberry Jam.
My first bake in London - Chocolate Muffins.
This was my last bake in London - Banana Muffins. Did not really bake much over there as I do not want to make Eliza put on too much weight because mom was there :) Only made twice Nutella Pecan tarts, two types of muffins and once Hokkaido Chiffon Cupcakes.
Baked this batch of raisin and walnut buns after a month of break from baking to bless the brethrens who attended the Saturday morning prayer for the church leaders.
Then came this batch of French loaves to replenish those eaten up from the freezer during my trip ;)
Must have variation right? So made some Molten Lava Chocolate cakes garnished with fresh strawberries for breakfast ;)
The following Saturday morning Prayer meeting, I made these Chocolate and Cranberry Muffins. Something simple and delicious to be baked in the morning so that the brethrens could enjoy them fresh :)
These are Taiwanese Pineapple Tarts with Blueberries. GOD created me with the curiosity to experiment and have variety in my baking, etc. That's why cannot stick to the norm ;)
These are Taiwanese Pineapple Tarts with Cranberries ;)
Wanted to try adding Black and White Sesame Paste into my Kueh Lapis and I did :)
Pizza for Breakfast. Prepared the dough the night before and kept it in the fridge. Woke up earlier the next morning to roll out the dough, prepare the filling and baked fresh for breakfast :-)
Made two variations of pizzas - Ham and Cheese plus Sausage and Tomatoes.
These are buns filled with Ham and Cheese topped with more cheese, Sweet Rolls for the Monday Night Cyclists.
Yam and Sweet Potato filled with Sticky Cake Fritters :) My cousin, who cooks and bakes very well, makes sticky cake every year for Chinese New Year. Yummy ;)
Renfred asked if I could help him make a savory appetizer for the Youth Valentine's Day Dinner. Am afraid of big numbers but because I wanted to support my son, I said, I shall try. Thus, began the experimental journey of making Savory Hot dog Muffins and Kenny Rogers Corn Muffins.
That Saturday was crazy for me. Had a very tight schedule of going for the Saturday morning prayer, then rushed down to our old class mates gathering in the West and then hurried back to buy last minute ingredients at the supermarket and back home to bake 198 Kenny Rogers Corn Muffins :O
Baked Savory Sausage Muffin for the first time in my life.
Made these French loaves, a day before the old class mates gathering, to go with the curry chicken which Joyce was bringing. Thank GOD they love it and I wished I had made more.
Also made these Prawn Rolls, which I had to wake up earlier to fry, for the old class mates gathering. Thank GOD for seeing me through that crazy Saturday, standing 4+ hours to bake the muffins.
Had some leftover Bak Kwa. So..... made some Bak Kwa Garlic Buns :)
Using the French loaf recipe, I added walnuts, oat, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds and topped with poppy seeds. Very fragrant ;)
Pecan Cinnamon Squares :)
Baked some mini sausage buns for another group of brethrens.
A simple dinner for my hubby - Yee Mee with fresh prawns, squid, mackerel slices, green vegetables and an egg :)
Once in a while, I feel like playing with colours. So I made these two rainbow agar agar. In Genesis, rainbow reminds us of GOD's covenant with Noah not to destroy the earth anymore with rain.
