Mosaic Jelly

Posted by Food so delicious! | Labels: , , , , , , ,



I love this! I love this! I love this!.. Hahahaha.. one of the easiest and prettiest jelly to make. EVER.

If there is any occasion where I have to bring something to a party and didnt have time, I will make this. I like it because for one, it's easy to make... and it's always impressive. For another, jelly always sells in a party due to our hot and humid, well, not so hot but still very humid weather these days. And if you have kids in the party, this is what they will go for.

The other reason why I love this is that I can split up the whole making process to suit my timing. I dont necessarily have to do everything at one go. I can split it up.. making the mosaic pieces first and when I have a window time of half hour, I can do the jelly to keep the mosaic in place. Terrific!

Oh yes, this jelly is open for ordering and a whole block can serve quite a few people during a party. Call to enquire!

Coconut Candies

Posted by Food so delicious! | Labels: , , , , , ,







This is something I remembered about my childhood. Coconut candy was a big thing during my time as there was no Garrett popcorn or funky treats then. Life was simple and it was easy to please us. hehehehe.. simple ingredients like grated coconut, sugar and milk could give us so much thrill and mamas will always use this as a bribe. hahahahahaha..

I learnt how to make this when I was 10 years old and it was tedious to make but for a 10 years old, it was fun! hahahahahaha.. and over the years, I do make this off and on just for fun or to pack as gifts for people who appreciate such simple treat.

Anyway, this round I made a pandan flavor which is colored in green and a mixture of vanilla and rose for the pink ones... The pink ones are simply addictive! Woo hoo......

These were sold for a wedding party at RM25 for the square container.. RM35 for the round container and RM12 for the trial pack.. heh! heh! heh!

Carribean Queen - A coconut cake with a twist.

Posted by Food so delicious! | Labels: , , , , , ,





Awhile ago one of my favorite blogs, http://hungerhunger.blogspot.com/

had this lovely cake.. A cake that I have always wanted to make but never got around doing because, for one, the few coconut cakes I have made didnt live up to my idea of what I would like as a coconut cake..until I saw Terri's blog.. wooot!! For another, I didnt have time and was partly lazy.. tsk! tsk! tsk!... Anyway, today, I got time and wasnt lazy.. so, I made this cake and the result was...

I must say I was very very surprised with the texture. I absolutely love it!! It's light, soft, moist and somewhat like sponge but had a hint of buttercake texture. Absolutely fabolously love it!! However, I am not too please with the flavor.. the coconut aroma/flavor didnt quite come thru inspite of me using fresh coconut cream.. Hmm.. perhaps I need to work on this.. And my idea of using lime curd to contrast or rather bring out the coconut flavor didnt quite work... Hmmmmmmmm... I need to work on this too. I have to decide if I want to reduce sugar as it's sweet but if I do, will that affect the flavor? Would the coconut flavor disappear all together? Would I still want to use lime curd on this cake? Yes, this cake needs a bit more work..

Overall, I find this cake has potential! I like the texture.. I love the look of this cake.. and yes, I didnt go thru all the effort of making a few different cream for this cake.. instead, use my usual light and fluffy buttercream but the result is just as good, I think. Hehehe..

Am I going to make this again?? Oh yes!! hell yes.. hahahaha.. this time, I will change a few things.. and once I get this right, I will sell this cake! Oh yesss.... it's not easy to find an awesome cake.. what more an awesome coconut cake!! Stay tune!!

Foodelicious presents.... Nasi Lemak

Posted by Food so delicious! | Labels: , , , , , ,



This is what I served for my latest party.. Nasi Lemak party!!

I believe that one has to get the coconut rice right to qualify for a good Nasi Lemak. The coconut rice mustnt be too soft or soggy or wet.. it has to be just the right bite with just enough coconut santan.. not too rich neither should it be too light.

The condiments that comes with Nasi Lemak is juicy and crunchy slices of cucumber, nicely roasted peanuts, freshly fried ikan bilis, half a hard boiled egg, a little bit of serunding...

As for the main star... well, to me it is the sambal.. This main star has to be a balance of spiciness with some hint of asam jawa, sugar and the saltiness. Whenever I make this, I like it to be a sweet and tangy for a start as I know as the days goes by, the saltiness from the ikan bilis will find its way into the gravy and enhance its flavor..so, the sweetness and tanginess must be in a right balance when that happens.

I had this dilemma as to what I should cook to accompany my sambal.. should it be a rendang chicken or a curry chicken or a curry kapitan chicken. At the end, I chose Curry Kapitan chicken. I made this using all the usual blended ingredients for curry chicken. The difference is this curry is not that red and some kafir lime leaves with a dash of lime. The lime makes all the difference.. making this dish very pleasing and less oily.

Anyway, I had a superb time with my friends during this party. It was gracious of them to come and enjoy my cooking and creation..(hehehe... the drinks was simply smashing!) Nothing beats good friends as company to enjoy some good laughter and cheers! Thank you my old schoolmates for making my nasi lemak party a smashing success!

Dumplings - Nyonya Chang

Posted by Food so delicious! | Labels: , , , , , ,




This variant of dumpling is a lot of work! Plenty of chopping and pounding. The chestnuts have to be boiled and chopped, the candied wintermelon, mushroom and chicken have to be cubed while the spices have to fried and pounded and blended to make a perfect balance.

The easy part of this dumpling is the wrapping... Hehehe.. one scoop of rice than one scoop of filling and another scoop of rice, wrap and I am done.

These are sold at RM5 each and yes, it is expensive but hey! everything is not cheap nowadays....

Jellies - A present for you

Posted by Food so delicious! | Labels: , , ,



I was looking all over the place for this mould... I had actually saw this mould eons ago at some shopping center but didnt buy it then because it was too expensive for me at that time and had regretted it since. So, when I saw this mould again, I grab it even though it cost 200% more than the earlier, I cannot afford it price!! Should have begged, borrowed and steal the money then! Hehehe..

Anyway, I made a jelly out of this mould.. This was sold for RM80.

Jelly Mooncakes

Posted by Food so delicious! | Labels: , , , , , , ,












Dont you just love lantern festival? When I was young, I used to have a hard time choosing a lantern amongst the many beautiful ones hanging high above my head in Kedai runcit. The one lantern that I really wish I could have was the old fashion trolley looking one with wings and when you push it, the wings will flap!! I used to wait outside my house just to see other children walk by with that lantern... sigh.. I wish I could buy that lantern now and if I could, I will buy plenty!

So, to play with lanterns and eat mooncakes are part of Chinese culture and this year I have created 2 new flavors to add on my last year's bestsellers. The flavours for this year are :-

Lemon with yogurt filling
Dragon fruit with yogurt filling
White Coffee with yogurt filling
Cendol
Tutti Fruitti
Bubur Cha Cha

These are sold 4 in a pretty box at RM25 or individually at RM7.50. Deliveries are made on the following dates; 23rd, 25th, 28th 30th September and 2nd October.

Local Dessert - Bubur Cha Cha

Posted by Food so delicious! | Labels: , ,


















I like my bubur cha cha the old fashion way.... full of santan flavour with the correct amount of yams and sweet potato and very importantly, must have those little wigglies springy starch funnies in red and green! Oh.. it must also be the right thickness...

I made this to eat since I can never find a good bubur cha cha out there.... Haven't decided if I should include this in my catering menu.... What you think?

Local Delights - Kueh Talam

Posted by Food so delicious! | Labels: , , , , ,






















Ya, another of my all time favorite kueh! Grew up eating this and have learnt to be very fussy about this kueh. It has to have the right amount of pandan and santan layer, it has to be "bouncy" but not hard and chewy and most definitely not soft and mushy. That's kueh talam to me...

This kueh is sold by per 8 inch round tray at RM25.

Local Delights - Kueh Lapis Gula Melaka

Posted by Food so delicious! | Labels: , , , , , ,

















This is a delicious kueh.. you can get addicted eating it, piece after piece after piece and before you know it, it is all gone! It is basically the same as the traditional kueh lapis except that this uses gula melaka for the brown layer and the texture is more "bouncy", a small twist to the old fashion kueh. You gotta try it to know what I am talking about.

An 8 inch round tray of this kueh, which you can cut quite a few pieces is for sale at RM15 and it is simply perfect for parties and office do!

My Christmas Treats - Noel! Jelly

Posted by Food so delicious! | Labels: , , , , ,
















I saw this mould and fell in love with it instantly! Apparently, you can bake a cake with this plastic mould but I am not keen to try.. plastic and heat spells trouble! So, instead, I have made a Noel jelly with it and I must admit, it takes skills to make those trimmings on Noel wreath.


This jelly is santan based and has all the Christmas colors making it an excellent gift during this festive season! This gift is up for grabs at RM45.

Local Delights - Lempar Udang

Posted by Food so delicious! | Labels: , , , ,














This is another one of my all time favorite traditional kueh and the few that is savory. You can hardly get great Lempar Udangs these days and most of the time, it is so disappointing... Sigh..

Anyway, this kueh is made from gently compressing soft glutonious rice steamed to perfection enveloping a mixture of kerisik with a secret spice and prawns. The thrilling part is bitting into it and seeing if you get the prawn.. Hehehe.. just like treasure hunt!

This is an old fashion kueh that is best eaten for breakfast or afternoon tea and is selling at RM1.50 each with a minimum order of 25 pieces. Try it to discover the bygone era where food is simply scrumptious!

Crumble Rumble..

Posted by Food so delicious! | Labels: , , , ,




Ok.. forget about my photography skills.. I know it is not great. This here is an apple crumble. It has the usual short crust pastry filled to its rim with lots of granny smith apples lightly flavored with cinnamon. And what is a crumble with its rumbling crumble made of rich butter, flour and almond flakes. Best...




This, by the way, is a peach and banana crumble. If peaches are in season, freshly cut peaches will be used together with bananas, all lightly flavoured with spices and topped with buttery crumble with almond flakes and some little surprises... hawaiian coconut.. It is heavenly!






Didnt I say forget about what the pictures look like and just order to know what heavenly tasting these are?? They are priced at RM5 each with a minimum order of 10 pieces of each flavour.

Eating them layer by layer, savoring the full flavor of coconut can be addictive. One layer after another, 1 piece after another....... What a great way to spend a lazy afternoon...
