♥...Moist Chocolate Cake...♥

Having tried a few moist chocolate cakes before, the result had always disappointed me. It’ll be toooooooooo moisty ( watery ) in the center even after chilling for hours. Hey, I did not claim the recipe is wrong! I did mistake somewhere for sure! Well, I’ve just started baking U know…( errr, just justifying myself here … ) Thus tempted me to try another recipe, highly recommended by Namitha and Sunitha from Cookingpals . Thanks to Namitha for passing me the conversion link. That really helps. Would say I was terribly excited and satisfied with the outcome. My kids enjoyed the cake very much and Rishie has even ordered me to do it again. Haha, so what else verdict do U need??? This recipe is sure a keeper. Recipe originally adapted from HERE . I made half of the recipe, direct copy from COOKINGPALS . Thanks again to Namitha for promoting it! Please do visit them, their photograph speaks everything! MOIST CHOCOLATE CAKE Ingredients:~ For Cake: Flour- 1 cup Su

Moist Chocolate Cake (new recipe)

Mid-term school holiday is here! It's time for Rishie to relax and play with sister Ashika more. And I can enjoy being home rather than sunny, head-cracking outdoor! We spend most of our time with PS3...phew. Waiting for dear Hubby to return soon! Both my kids are chocoholics just like their Papa! When Rishie requested for a chocolate cake, I just thought of this recipe which is truly moisty, chocolatey and delicious. I find the sweetness was just right as we had the cake topped with choc ganache and Cadbury chocs. Luckily I had 2 little assistants who readily helped me to arrange the choc pieces. Ashika was really excited helping me out. She just likes to imitate whatever I do in the kitchen. Thus, I had to keep my knives and sharp tools way higher! Btw, she fell asleep while waiting for me to finish with the photoshoot, but nothing went right when I shot these pics. I completely screwed up with the settings and lighting...haha! Enough said, here's the recipe to the sin

Corn Custard Pudding / Puding Kastad Jagung...♥

A beautiful Monday wishes to all of you. I'm taking you straight to the dessert today as I've got some mission to be accomplished here. Lol, it's none other than the novels I've been hooked to lately. I love puddings anytime...whether it's soft and creamy or the tender types. Can't really remember when I last made this Corn Custard Pudding. I craved for it, so made it right away as I had a can of Cream Style Sweet Corn available on my shelf. CORN CUSTARD PUDDING Ingredients :~ 600ml coconut milk ~ I used 3 boxes (200ml each) coconut milk, M&S brand 400ml water 1 cup or less sugar 1 cup (150gm) Bird's Custard powder a pinch of salt 1 can Cream Style Sweet Corn ~ about 425gm Method :~ Mix all the above ingredients except for corn in a heavy bottomed sauce pan until the custard powder dissolved. Place the pan over low heat and add cream corn. Keep stirring over low heat until the mixture becomes thick and shiny. Do not leave th

Sothi Recipe ( Indian Style Mild Yellow Coconut Curry )

This is one of the most wanted recipes from my fellow readers. Sothi, an Indian style of mild yellow coconut curry...tastes a little similar to the Malay style Masak Lemak, is definitely one of my favourites. I'd enjoy Sothi with plain rice and a spicy dish like mackerel or anchovies sambal. String hoppers ( Putu Mayam in Malay) are another great companion for Sothi. Preparing Sothi is just easy...you'll need to combine all the ingredients into a cooking pot and boil it. Easy right? Check it out!!! To my readers... Ms. Sharnisha, Ms. Komala and Ms. Thamarai. Here's the recipe as per your request, apologize for the delay. Hope you ladies don't mind :~) This is a vegan Sothi.

Hello everyone! Seeing you all again in the month of March! My finger is finally free from the wire yesterday! Right now, it's stilll covered with gauze, gotto leave it dry for another 2 days. I have to do my own physio try to bend the finger slowly.

DURIAN CREPES...

Dear weight-watchers and durian haters, you may enter with caution...lol! Durian-lovers, enjoy!!! Durian Crepes, Durian Crepes, Durian Crepes...this is the only title I currently read at most of the Malaysian food blogs. Gosh, I was so tempted to make this! Durian Crepes has gone viral all over... Durian, as we call it the "King of Fruits" is largely famous in Malaysia, Brunei and Indonesia. Although it can be the most favourite fruit of all, the distinctive odour, can be too strong for some. In my family, everyone loves durian except for our little Ashika! She will put that disgusted face when she sees us enjoying durian! But she somehow joined me and Rishie for these Durian Crepes today. She had one piece ;) Now, how is a Durian Crepe made? Yes, basically you need to make the crepes just like how you make pancakes, but here the crepes must be really thin. The crepes then will be filled with durian flesh and whipped fresh cream. Some also add custard cream. I shall

♥...Hot & Spicy Mayonnaise Prawn Fry...♥

This was one of our lunch menu today. I've actually quit eating prawn but still cook it for my dear family who really love seafood unlike me. I don't really fancy seafoods except for fried fishes. My Hubby and son can eat prawn and crab anytime. For me, the gravy alone is enough. Here's another prawn dish from my kitchen. My son enjoys it, though it's little spicy due to addition of bird's eye chilli. A simple and quick prawn dish which will make you go for second and third helping.
