Crispy Fish Cake With Wholemeal Tortilla

Isn't it look delicious?

My whole family said inside is crispy and outside is soft.

Its delicious and healthy! I made this last weekend for our breakfast.

Hope you try it out because it is very simple to make.

Its just lovely to have the whole family sitting down eating

breakfast and talk nonsense.

:) I am one happy wife and mother.

Warm up the wholemeal tortilla with a non stick pan.

(Note : No need to use any cooking oil or butter)

Warmed wholemeal tortilla.

Fried fish cake and sliced it into 4 strips.

Some shredded lettuce.

Place a few slices of the fish cake on top of the wholemeal tortilla.

Then, place the shredded lettuce and some of

your favourite sauces e.g. tomato sauce, chilli sauce,

thousand island sauce or BBQ sauce. (the choice is yours)

Use your finger tips and roll the wholemeal tortilla.

Roll up to the end and cut into half.

Serve with your favourite drinks.

Toasted Garlic Bread

Toasted Garlic Bread

Many moons ago, my dear colleague, Stephanie Chua

complain that buying ready made Garlic Butter is very expensive.

Upon hearing it, I taught her how to make Garlic Butter.

Once you have made the Garlic Butter, you just spread on

any bread and just toast it....very very very simple.

5 slices of white bread

30 g of butter (room temperature)

1 tbsp of garlic powder

(Note : If you don't like garlic powder,

you can use fresh chopped garlic

and mix it with some salt)

Mix the butter with the garlic powder until well.

Spread the garlic butter over the bread evenly

and toast in the over until brown.

I turn the temperature to 190 Degree Celcius

for 15 minutes.

While the bread was toasting, you can smell the

garlic aroma....so nice smell lingering inside my kitchen.

Yeap! Yeap!...I can't wait to bite it.........

Marble Cake

Marble Cake

While having dinner, my husband asked whether would

like to buy bread for tomorrow breakfast?

I said not necessary because I am intending to bake Marble Cake.

He asked me why I did not bake in the afternoon because

at least it won't be tiring for me.....since I went to

Big Bad Wolf Book Sales this morning with my son.

I said no problem because Marble Cake is very easy to bake.

He nodded his head and gave me the grin smile....I know he

loves to eat Marble Cake.

My son and I had a wonderful time buying books

at the Big Bad Wolf Book Sales,

so so so cheap........ and lots of varieties......too bad that my daughter cannot

tag along because of her AS (A Level) exam.

Well, upon smelling the aroma of my bake Marble Cake later,

sure my daughter will forget about the book sales....ha ha ha and also

to give her a boost on her memory to answer all her exams questions

without hesitation and with flying colours!

Egg Tart with Puff Pastry

Egg Tart with Puff Pastry

First sentence from me...."You should try it out,

the egg is smooth, silky and sweetness is just perfect!"

End up making 18 pieces and my dearie husband told me

to give all to our neighbour (left and right of our house).

For each neighbour, I gave 6 pieces.

My dear son told me to bake again after my husband and son

trip to Xinyi, China (flown there this morning with another

20 relatives for Ancestor Praying). My dear daughter and I can't

tag along because she will be siting her AS (A Level) exam

in another 6 days. Wishing her "All The Good Luck".

Lastly, would like to thank Sonia, Nasi Lemak Lover for sharing this recipe.

90g caster sugar

3 eggs

18 pieces of frozen puff pastry - thaw at room temperature

(you can get it from any supermarket)

1/4 vanilla extract

1/4 white vinegar

250 ml hot water

Beat eggs lightly.

Dissolve caster sugar into hot water and let it cool.

Once puff pastry has been thawed, arrange nicely

into any muffin/cupcake tray

Pour in the vanilla extract and white vinegar

into the beaten eggs and pour all into the cool sugar

water and stir until well combined.

Look like this once all the puff pastries has been laid.

Then pour the egg custard into the puff pastry case

until 3/4 full.

Don't be greedy, if not, it will spill out while baking.

Bake for 40 minutes or till golden brown at 190 Degree Celcius.

Yummy Yummy Yummy...... ;)

Three words from my dearie husband, son and daughter.
