Apple Pies




Besides mango ice-cream i made, i got another idea to mix the fruit in my boy's diet~ Apple pies. Just use the frozen puff pastry bought from supermarket, you could have instant yet delicious pastry at your own home sweet home.

Mango Yogurt Ice-cream




Sometime is hard to get the kids to eat the fruit on its own. Example my son (ya, typical food-picker). So, I was wondering how to make him to like the fruit? Ice-cream? Ya, kids love ice-cream! But it's quite high calories and the fat too if I'm using creamer. What if yogurt? Yogurt ice-cream, healthier and contains lots of probiotics which is good to our health. So let's try this simple recipe.

Pizza Topping with Hawaiian Tuna & Bacon



Sometime i'm quite lazy to clean up the mess in the kitchen, especially on the stove. So I'll use the oven to cook for me. Just put in your dish and let the oven does the cooking, and the best part is smoke free and oil-spill free. Ok, then what is the best menu i can have for my boy? Pizza! He likes it (sometimes) and I can rely on the oven to bake it nicely. How about the topping? Aiya, anything will do, as long as there is cheeseeeeee......

Simple Deco Birthday Cake (Sponge cake based)



I am making my elder son and my bro-in-law's birthday cake, since their lunar calendar birthday is quite near to each.  I know my sense of art is not really creative, thus cake garnishing part I'll try to make something simple (but not guarantee nice one lah!! you can see from the pic above....). Therefore, i have to make sure the cake tastes nice, in order to 'help' them to forgive me on such "Art Attack" deco.....

Pumpkin Fillling with Salted Egg Yolk Flaky Pastry (金瓜咸蛋黄酥/黄金酥)




Mid-autumn/ mooncake festival falls on 8 Sept 2014 this year.  I'm not really addicted to the mooncakes selling in the market, there are too sweet for me. Thus i have another option: salted egg yolk flaky pastry. I choose to use the pumpkin filling instead of red bean/lotus. Add a light pandan flavor, it smells and tastes nice and unique which you won't find this in anywhere.
