Macha Cheesecake


my mood is over the moon again! my 1st macha cheesecake is perfectly done. I need to thank someone later. ( U'll see)
I have another half creamcheese left in fridge from carrot cheesecake. Must find a recipe to fully make use of this creamcheese ( I seldom buy CC, as it is very expensive & fattening food to keep, agree?) I picked this recipe. (I dont like green tea, but I picked it still! knowing this recipe wont failed me, I know I just have confidence with it) It's proven! Good recipe. Very good Recipe, b4 the 1st photo was taken, I gulp down 1 slice ! very yummy!!
I havled the recipe into half. (All half!) 5 eggs = 2.5 eggs. I actually break 1 egg, scope half of the egg white and Half of the egg yolk.. so to get 0.5! (it works !) also, my cheeesecake was perfectly baked without single crack on top. ( that little hole is from my skewer test) How can U ask me not to love it?

caption: I got SO EXCITED, I tear whatever paper (i found baking paper on table), grab a pen, and wrote a message to this recipe's provider!!!!! ;D Thank you Terri!!

MachA Cheesecake Recipe
notes:
a.I halved the recipe & baked in a small 6" round tin . (because I only have 120g cheese in hand) & baked for 55 mins only (bain marie of cuz)
b. I used hand-held machine beater to beat my eggwhites for the above. Out of excitement.. I am thinking to invest in a stand-held mixer !

Chawan Mushi in an Onion Cup


When I drop the two gingko nuts after the first 12 minutes on the egg-jello ... it gives u the jiggly, wobbly effect like a jello! hahahaha... soo Cute!!! I guess U all must try this! put ur chawan mushi on an onion cup, then u will see how an egg custard jiggly wobbly yet is firm in front of u.

Terri I really like ur recipe. This is really silky-soft ! I never had such soft-steamed egg before! is not soft, any word better than soft? I think I use silk to best describe this chawan mushi. :D

ya, my egg is well - set in this onion cup. very yummy !my sis was like.. ha? Ah Tng, why you eat an Onion ??? :D


I was quite lucky that I can get this giant sized brown onion from Gaya street this morning ! Immediately I think of Terri's Chawan Mushi..
The small one is our standard cooking onion.. I just don't understand why these 2 are so big! 10 cm width!




Dad was asking me, ...

Dad: is ur onion cup eatable ?
me: Yes of cuz! only Singapore can find this chawan mushi in onion cup
know! ( I assume la.. cuz 1st time i seen it in during Terri's sing trip! may be kl have..may
be..)

Dad: Now House 150 has loh....
me: HEhehhehehehe ....

I was telling my fren karen that , I dont think I will make the 2nd time... unless someone special requested for it (",)


Yeah I made some in Ramekin cups. Very smooth surface! See I made it! hahah, simply follow Terri's Tips! Then everyone can make it! How I wish my skin are as smooth as the chawan mushi............... U think I eat more my skin can improve ah?




No cheating, this cup of chawan mushi is really silky-soft & tasty!
I dont have Dashi granules... I replaced with Fish stock (Maggie brand).. I dont have Sake! I replaced with mum's Wong Jiu ! :D

Dorayaki


Moshi Moshi, Dorayaki is ready now.
I have tried Gaya street's small pancake filled with redbean paste, etc. I buy 4. When I ate 1, I can't even swallow the 1st bite ! yucky flour taste all over ! I have no choice but to throw all 4 ! :( and I saw they sell in 1 Borneo too ! argh! I am not going to buy them anymore.
Instead, I saw Dorayaki from Daily Delicious's. So beautifully made. and I m pretty sure ur house kids would love it!



Dorayaki 's Cycle.

Tamago Sushi + Tamagoyaki

Hah! Finally! I made my own Tamago !!! sometimes I thought It's quite expensive to pay RM4 (the cheapest I had so far in KK) just for 2 slice of Tamago! and, oh well, I would say I pay for their " effort" of Rolling-the-Omelette !
I rolled my Japanese Omelette using Round pan~ always feel that How Good if I have a Square Pan! makes my life easier~ anyways, round will do!
Ingredients
5 eggs
150 ml stock / chicken broth
1 teaspoon light soya
1 teaspoon mirin
1 tablespoon sugar

Photo sessions taken from my book

Mix all the ingredients. & get ready 1 kitchen paper soak with cooking oil


Step1: Heat up the pan in a low fire, with the soaked kitchen paper, brush on the pan a bit.

Step 2: pour-in bit of egg mixture ( not much in a time, otherwise too thick and take longer time to cook , and the base get burnt as u cook longer.

Step 3: Fold the egg into Half. As you can see the other Half of the pan are empty. Now, Brush some oil with the paper on the empty area.

Step 4: pour in bit of eggmixture, to cover the another half (again becareful not to pour in too much). Let it sit for 30 seconds or less

Step 5: Fold the 1st layer ,half over to the new layer which u just cooked in step 4.

( Repeat the same steps 3 ~ 5 until your eggmixture are finished) BE PATIENT! hehe & work along! make sure dont get any single layer burnt ! otherwise, not nice lah, what else =p still can eat also de.. *giggle*




Simple Roll-Sushi
a. Roll your japanese rice with hand wet with (vinegar & water) .
b. Take a nice handful of rice, squeeze a bit using ur palm until firm.
c. use a finger to press a bit, while u continue massage the rice until U think it's in shape.
d. put on the slice egg & eat


I play cheat here! I used plain rice! hahahaha, not really jap rice! used the left over rice from Dinner just now, and made~ oh well... 1st time make Tamago, What to expect wor! =p~


WIth the leftover Omelette, I cut into cubes! Square-Tamagoyaki


seeing the egg white, knowing I didnt mix the egg well ! Oh well, who cares, All will be in stomach also anyways =p
