Nutty Fruit Loaf ????

This is one very easy bread... no kneading!!! Just mix. (Discovered by accident)Actually, I got this recipe from Culinary Concoctions by Peabody, and I found that the amount of stuff in the recipe will not produce the same results as the accidental bread she made (Well, hers was a well formed long loaf, mine was a batter type dough and she said she guesstimated the amounts, cos she was cleaning up the pantry, and she used up the ingredients in the...

Almond Puff Fingers ???

These are called Almond puff pastry if you ever see them in Baker�s Cottage (a Msian bakery chain). I prefer calling them almond puff fingers, as they are finger sized.This is a copycat version of those found in Baker�s Cottage. Not as buttery as theirs, as mine uses frozen store bought puff pastry. More convenient!!! Sacrificing on flavour.... 'sigh'I tried this 2 times, doing it better the 2nd time around. First time, the top was a bit chewy because...

Chocolate Chip Cookies

180C baked 15 minsI first made this based on Van Houten�s chocolate chip wrapper when I was 17� My friends nicknamed my cookies Famous Wendy. Well, they said, it tasted similiar with Famous Amos.

The actual name is Hyacinth BeanI haven't been cooking much since June... most of the postings nowadays are back posts of what I've done in the previous weeks.

Patin Masak Pedas (Silver Catfish in Hot Gravy)

One good thing about moving to Kuala Kangsar is � Abundant fresh river catches at very reasonable prices.Every Saturday morning there is this Pasar Tani (Farmer�s Market) nearby where I stay. There�re 2 stalls that sell live river fish� still alive and swimming around. If u can�t stand the sight of the fish mongers killing them by banging them on the head�..don�t look. It does look brutal.One swimming Patin goes for RM8/kg. I know it�s more expensive...
