Home cook Laksa


Won't be making Laksa in Australia again
could be once last time

I bought some ingredients
just to prepare my dinner
and I found out I have more than enough ingredients
end up cook for 4 

Well, is Saturday
my housemate told me he learnt some trick from Masterchef
that can helped me on my banana cake
i think this can be pretty good idea
so I bake one more for them
He's my assistant on that day
not really assistant but a learner

So I baked banana cake and made Laksa for that night
such a great meal
Everyone was so full and happy with my dishes
I don't think they able to eat what I cook anymore
unless they come and find me
this 2 months while searching for jobs
I have been doing what I like/love to do
although stressful and emotional when I failed to get a job
but I'm happy that I enjoyed the life for awhile at least I think

And also upgraded my skills
not my major but my hobby
guess everyone needs their life to be balance
Time to pack my stuff
will shared more of my lifestyle
no matter where I will be

Time

Time is ticking
tick tock tick tock
How many days?
How many hours?
How many minutes?

Missing someone:
That very moment when you’re doing something and wishing they were right there with you.

A little bit different

Today I will post something slightly unusual
a little girlish post but I find it quite interesting
although I posted before if you remembered
If you still interested, do let me know.

So back to today's topic
Have you ever wonder where to costomize your clothes?
you want something that's belong just to you
and also share around your lovely design to everyone

I saw it some people posted in facebook and blogs
and try to search on it
and here you go, their website
But I find it that their sin and accesories getting lesser
and some out of stock
I think because I'm kinda late to find it out
previously there is sale for that, up to 50%
anyway, it still not that expensive though
I don't think you girls will find it expensive
it is so creative and fun


Customize time
it is simple
you just pick a Sin you like to wear

Then
is your time to use select the accessories 
now you can design the way you like


This is my end product
I designed this for my girlfriend
I hope it suits her and she loves it
much more natural design and floral feel
How about yours?
Try it and create something belongs to you or your beloved

mix feeling & Happy Mother's Day


Bak Kut Teh
I had been cooking this for so many times
although it doesn't taste so yummylicious in Klang
but still taste delicious with herbs
cold cold night
with this hot soup
just feel so good

I still remembered the first time I started to cook
I not even dare to touch the meat or even a dead fish
well, after years training and growing up
somehow I need to get rid of fear
there's nothing impossible, but there's possibilities
is either the easiest way or the hardest way
everything have to start from basic

I love to eat, try and taste
that's what my mummy said to me
most of the time I will bring my family to try something unique
I'll give them a call when I'm having delicious food
ask them whether would like to try anything from here
a simple phone call
a simple take away
a simple caring
It means a lot

food share...kinda slips off
not sure how I ended up saying something different
oh well, there goes

To Mummy, well also a bit to Daddy
I know you want me to get a job as soon as possible
I've been trying in Australia and doesn't seems to have any luck here
next place will be Singapore
I will get my jobs by this June
as I have to start earning and spending on my own hard earn money
dad and mom sacrifice are more than enough from now
well, is time for me to pay back and look after


Happy Mother's Day
I love you
I love all of you

Sharing Banana Cake Recipe

As I promised to share the recipe with you all
I had been trying 3 banana cakes to try out different methods
Due to I baked it from scratch 
I need to get it right and taste good
although it may not as good as outside selling
but you'll find it even happier when you succeeded to make one of those

Homemade cake will always bring the feeling with full of warmth and love
the cake I baked not only tested by me
but I shared with my housemates and friends
I asked them to comment on it each one I bake

I love to see people trying the cake I bake
and their first impression on seeing it and tasting it
sort of quite important to me
because the looks of the cake is important
whether it brings appetite to people and have some feeling on want to try
and then the taste whether too sweet or up to the standard

Eventually the first one I bake on my previous post
the look of it, is great
taste banana obviously 
I asked my housemates to try 
they commented that not fluffy enough
and quite hard after cooling down
but still we finished the cake

Then I try to make the second one
different methods and slightly mix it longer
and the temperature set it not too high
as in later on it won't burn and harden easily
this time I shared with my friends
they said quite nice and really tasted the banana in it
it would be nice if slightly heated up
What makes me happy is that
they shared among themselves 

It just happen last weekends
they went to market to sell out their moving out stuffs
and also some beautiful handmade products too
check out their handmade
in case you can't get into the link
just a sneak peak of it


Jiunn brought my banana cake along which YinLing shared with them
just nice where I sliced into 4 pieces and 4 of them able to try it
they told me lucky I gave them the banana cake
was so nice early in the morning while waiting for customers
they had slice of banana cake and a cup of coffee
what a beautiful memory for me 
I'm happy that I brought happiness to my fellow friends and housemates

Well, after voice out all my feelings
Guess you all been waiting for the recipe
it may not the best or it may be very similar with others
that's all how we trying on others recipe and bake it with our own ways
All I can say
 the only different is the methods and the quantity of the ingredients
just add more or less the quantity of each ingredients you prefer
but not all ingredients can be simply increase the quantity
probably the sugar, vanila essences, eggs and bananas  
So the third one was quite successful in the end
all of them were happy with it
So the recipe

Ingredients A (dry mixed)
1 3/4 cups all purpose flour/plain flour (*important: flour need to be sieved
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

Ingredients B (wet mixed)
1/2cup / 125g unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
3/4 cup castor sugar
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
3 large ripe bananas (mashed well with fork)
1 teaspoon vanila essences 

Method:
Get a medium bowl mixed up together the Ingredients A. Set aside. That's should be the easiest one. Tricky part will be on Ingredients B. First, use another bowl to mix the butter and sugar till well blended. Then add in the eggs, bananas and vanila essences and mix well. Now, you need a rubber spatula (I don't have one so I replaced with plastic rice spoon) to mix Ingredients A and Ingredients B together. Slowly add in Ingredients A to Ingredients B and lightly fold them up. Combine both ingredients until the batter thick and chunky. (*important: DO NOT OVER MIXING, OTHERWISE WILL TURN INTO DOUGH)

Before pouring the mixing into baking tray/pan, remember to coat it with butter and sprinkle a little flour on it. Alternative way is using baking paper instead of flour. Bake until banana bread turns into golden brown Baking temperature in the range of 160°C - 175°C for approximately 60 minutes. Remove it from the oven and set aside to cool down at room temperature. 

The best combination having banana cake is serves it with afternoon tea. A blissful life.

Well, recipe shared. Enjoy baking everyone.

First Banana Cake

It's rainy day
checked weather forecast
it will be raining almost a week

I have been looking for jobs
sending letters for weeks
and doesn't have any good news reply

I decided to do something else while waiting replies
Talked with friends few days ago
topics all about baking and cooking
since I have been here in Melbourne for 4 years
I do not have the opportunity to bake one yet
and I do not own any baking tools
but now, I moved to a house
which I have oven, enough for me to bake
I have some measuring spoons and cups
trays as well

I heard most of the people I know loves
BANANA CAKE
well, I got no experience at all on this cake
anything needs to try, whether not
either success or failure

Spent about 1 hour plus,
and Ta Dah!
My first ever Banana Cake is ready to eat
I know, I know, I know,
Some of you may want to try
Some of you may want the recipe
but this Banana Cake
still not at the standard yet
I'm trying out with a few recipes and baked from scratch
Will share the recipe and steps 
once I get the right proportion and better taste
at the moment, smells nice and delicious
the only thing I don't really like is the surface texture
is slightly hard once cooling down
overall, is still good


Another try will be better
Stay tuned on my blog
recipe and steps will share with you all
Have a nice day : )

miles away


Even when someone is miles away, 
always remember that we are under the same sky, 
looking at the same sun, moon, and stars.
