Dried Seaweed Tamagoyaki or Dried Seaweed Egg Roll

Dried Seaweed Tamagoyaki or
Dried Seaweed Egg Roll
Hello, I am back after a long absence.  Where have I been?
I am not hyphenating after my son left to UK, just lazy and
at the same time took short trip to a few countries with my husband
and dear colleagues of mine. Ok, back to my recipe.

This snack was randomly made.  My husband keep on telling me
that he wanted to send me out to buy lunch which I decline
several times because I am lazy to go out and it was raining outside.
Told him that I will made this snack since I have all the ingredients.
It took me less than 15 minutes...very easy to make and delicious snack.




2 sheets of Dried Seaweed (used Roasted Dried Seaweed).
3 Eggs / 1 tablespoon Fresh Milk / 1/2 tsp Salt



 Crack all the Eggs inside a bowl, add in the Milk and Salt.



 With a fork, beat slightly the egg mixture and then stir it.
Try not to make so much of bubble.  That is why I stir it all the way.



 Use a colander to strain the egg mixture.
To obtain smooth egg texture for the egg roll.

 Dried Seaweed - Use your hand or scissor to make into small pieces.



 Heat up non-stick pan with some oil with high fire.
Then lower down to medium fire.



 Pour in some of the egg mixture and will notice some slight bubble.



 Quickly add in the Dried Seaweed.



 Quickly roll the egg roll.



 Quickly roll the egg roll.



 Once done, push the egg roll to the other end of the pan.
And oil the pan again.



 Repeat again.



 Repeat again.



 Repeat again.



Repeat again.



 Repeat again until all the mixture has been used up.



 Slight brown both side and dish up.



 Let it slightly cool before cutting it.

Note  :  3 Eggs yield into 1 Egg Roll.



Serve immediately.  You can eat this Tamagoyaki by itself
or with rich or noddle.  Choice is yours.

I sent this photo to my dear daughter (today she has class) and
she immediately reply oooh...I want, I want!

Green Tea Chinese Steamed Sponge Cake (Kai Dan Gao)

Green Tea Chinese Steamed
Sponge Cake (Kai Dan Gao) 
 There are a few bloggers out there who have successfully steamed
Matcha Mushipan (Japanese Steamed Cup Breads) but for me, it's
a failure even though my colleagues said the texture and taste are great.
It is just does not pass my text.  Well, with all the frustrations I had, I told
my colleagues that maybe I should use my trusted Chinese Steamed Sponge
Cake recipe (click here for the recipe) that I posted many years ago.
But, this time, I'll just add the Green Tea Powder only.
One of my closed colleagues said "Yeap! you should do that!".  And without
any hesitation, I did it on the same weekend and the result is wonderful.



150g Castor Sugar / 180g Self Raising Flour / 4 Eggs
1tbsp Matcha Powder (Green Tea Powder) / 50ml Sprite or 7 Ups
1/2 tbsp Vanilla Extract (original is 1 tbsp)



Beat all the eggs until frosty.



Add in the Castor Sugar and beat until creamy and thick.



Add in Vanilla Extract and beat until well combined.



Divide the combined Self Raising Flour with the Matcha Powder
into two batches.  Beat in the 1st batch of the flour and alternate with 
Sprite or 7 Ups and ending with the 2nd batch of the flour 
until well combined.



The batter is ready to be poured into moulds.



Make sure the water to steam the cakes are boiling before you pour
the batter into the mould.


Lay a tea cloth (like the picture above) to avoid dripping water drop 
onto the cakes, if not, your cakes will be mushy.  



Steamed for less than 15 minutes.  Do check after 10 minutes.
It is cooked when the skewer comes out clean.



Too happy with the result until I have forgotten to take picture of the
texture of the cakes.....heizzzzzz!

Have a nice weekend.
