Tiram miss you..

Second experiment on the tiramisu cake.. I got this recipe from a senior and actually it is the 'classic tiramisu' recipe.. Hmm.. Classic tiramisu is not as hard as the modern ones.. They are watery like the Bavarious Cream from Germany.. Will harden only if you throw the cream into freezer and they are usually served in a glass because of the soft texture.. The cake one uses confectioners sugar whipped with mascarpone cheese so that it remains hard.. Don't need the egg yolk!

How sad I have mistaken it.. But then the taste is awesome lah.. Haha..


One slice..

The main ingredient for all tiramisu.. Mascarpone cheese.. It is hard to find this product in the market.. Mostly can get from frozen food suppliers only..

After chilling and freezing.. I manage to get the shape.. Not bad lah..

As usual, sprinkle unsweetened coco powder on the cake top..

Then garnish with shaved dark chocolate..
The next time I make.. I will publish the recipe lah..

Good night.. Time to take a long sleep, preparing for the long day in college tomorrow..

Fish & Chips

My friend tempted me with fish.. Fish = healthy protein and it also helps ure brain cells to develope!? No?
We were supposed to dine in a fish and chips restaurant but the plan had never come true..
Then the tham chiakness in me forced my lazy butt to be kicked and I went shopping for ingredients..


Bought a kilo of butterfish as the main ingredients.. Butterfish is creamy and has the best texture if you want a good fish and chips.. It is not too expansive tho..

For the batter, I used the 'beer battered' concept.. Found the recipe in the KDU library not long ago.. Worked out to be fine.. Hehe.. Wonder what will happen if I replace the beer with liquor..

The for the chips.. Older potatoes are recommended.. Soak them in water so that the starch can ooze out and you will have a more crispy fries.. Science says that!

My Beer Battered Fish and Chips turned out to be like that!

Tadaa.. Rich and creamy flesh.. Yum Yum..

Argh.. Still want the real deal..
Faster make up ure mind and we go to the real shop for fish..
