I'm not sure whether if you've heard of Marmite, but I've always heard from my mum that she and her family used to have it with porridge and it was really yummy! I've not came across Marmite until 5-6 years ago, where I ordered a plate of Marmite Chicken with rice from a food court and it was really yummy! From then on I really really love the taste!!!!

As you can see, not only is Marmite affordable, it's also filled with benefits and widely available at your local supermarkets.
You had be surprised if you ever googled "Marmite recipes". There are endless of creations you can do with Marmite!!! Use it in your appetizers, your mains, and even desserts!!!! You can even use it as a spread on your bread.
So in today's recipe, I will be sharing with you a Marmite Chicken recipe that I adapted from Nasi Lemak's lover.
600g chicken, chopped into bite sizes
1 tbsb light soy sauce
1 tsp salt
Pepper
1 small egg
4 tbsp cornstarch
1 tbsp marmite
1tbsp honey
4 tbsp Maltose
1 tsp shrimp paste
100 ml hot water
2 cloves chopped garlic
Optional garnish - sesame seeds, red chilli shredded, parsley

1.) Marinate chicken with soy sauce, salt, pepper and egg for an hour or longer. I did it for about 3h so that my chicken will be more full in flavour.

2.) Add Marmite, honey, maltose* and shrimp paste to hot water, mix well and set aside.
*Maltose can be found at Sheng Siong Supermarket.


3.) Add in flour to the chicken and coat well, deep fried chicken over medium heat till golden brown.
For me, i didn't coat the chicken as I didn't want my chicken to be deep fried as I was sick, so I opted for a stir fried chicken instead. If you prefer to eat healthier, you can also do it the stir fried way too!!

4.) Use the same work, add in garlic and marmite mixture, stir and cook till big bubbles and add in fried chicken. Stir well to make sure chicken are well coated.

5.) Optional: Garnish with sesame seeds, red chilli and parsley.

Sunday, August 10, 2014

Hello everyone! 

I was recipe hunting recently and I came across this Honey Castella Cake recipe and it seems rather easy because all you need to do is dump everything into the egg mixer and that's it! So I decided to give it a try and it turn out really well!
Click on the image to enlarge the recipe.
You can also reduce the amount of sugar if you don't like it too sweet.
Recipe adapted from: www.rotinrice.com/2012/02/honey-kasutera-カステラ-honey-castella/
I actually skipped some steps like pouring the batter through a sift because I'm too lazy but it still turn out fine!!

The top layer should come out brown and crispy like this!
These cakes are also good as gifts because they taste so good and it's super easy to make.
Even my sister who isn't fond of cakes said it was good!
And did you realize that did recipe didn't use any butter/oil at all?!
I WAS SUPER AMAZED CAN.Turned out so good somemore omg this is unreal.
I WAS SUPER AMAZED CAN.Turned out so good somemore omg this is unreal. 
Great as a afternoon tea snack with a cup of coffee/tea!

Or just simply wrap them up as a gift!
Just in case you're wondering where I got my baking paper from, I got them from a shop that is similar to Daiso call Tokutokuya. EVERYTHING $2 ALSO !!! I bought the ball of paper ropes seen on the above picture from there too.
They update their stuff regularly so I always check every week or so to see if they have new products or not. But they don't carry these cooking sheets anymore :(

Comes in Minnie and Hello Kitty prints!!
Bonus point for cute packaging 


You not only can use it as a baking paper, you can also use it to wrap your food in many many different ways!
And that's all for my post, see you guys soon! :D
Recipe: Strawberry cheesecake cupcake
Wednesday, March 12, 2014
Sudden feel to bake so I suddenly thought of the cupcakes my puinko baked for me last year and it was mega yummy!!! So I asked her for the recipe and she said it was the one on Kaykay's blog but she didn't convert the recipe to grams so I converted for you guys if you are interested to make them!
Here are my cupcakes!
The original recipe is here so if you need the picture guide just click the link!
For the crust:
15 pieces of digestives
125g of butter
For the cupcake batter:
4 egg whites and 2 tablespoon of sugar
1 tsp baking powder (I skipped this and my cupcakes still poofed up really well)
170g of butter
190g of all purpose flour
1 cup of plain yoghurt (Those regular cups they are selling at supermarkets will do)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
200g of sugar (original was 220g, I reduced it)
1/2 teaspoon of salt
Diced strawberries (put more if you like and vice versa)
For the cream cheese frosting:
180g of cream cheese
85g of butter
200g of icing sugar (adjust to your preferred sweetness)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
I warn you guys first ah, this recipe is pretty much tedious if you don't have a electric mixer and it's pretty time consuming too cox there's alot of steps to it.
so for the steps:
1. Crush all the digestives into crumbs and mix with butter. Press down with fingers in cupcake liner and bake for 5 minutes at 170 degrees C.
2. Beat the egg whites and sugar until stiff USING AN ELECTRIC MIXER. (I geh kiang don't want to use ended up beat for 15 minutes still not stiff kns) Careful not to overbeat if not your cupcakes will flop!
3. Mix flour, salt and baking powder. (Sift the flour and baking powder!!)
4. In another bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, then add the vanilla and beat with a hand mixer. Then add half the flour mixture until incorporated then mix in the yoghurt. Add remaining flour and mix everything. (I kind of messed up this step just by adding in everything at once, it turns out fine though lol)
5. Gently fold 1/3 of the egg into the batter until combined, repeat until everything is mixed well.
6. Scoop batter into cupcake liners and bake for 25 minutes in the oven at 170 degree celcius.
7. For the frosting, just mix everything together that's all!!
8. Decorate the cupcake in any way you like!
Freshly out of oven without any frosting!
All ready with cream cheese frosting!!
REALLY NO JOKE EH IT'S MEGA YUMMY.
Bake for your crush and he confirm will fall in love with you HAHAHA OKAY JOKING.
Just go try this recipe lah k, no regrets one.
Cheery Churros! (With recipe)
Thursday, March 6, 2014
FINALLY A PROPER POST!
It has been long since I share a recipe with you guys so I decided to do a very simple BUT super duper yummy recipe post hehehe. From the title you all know it's churros la and I'm pretty sure some of you guys don't even know what's churros right ?! Cox actually I didn't know until I got them from USS lol and it's mega yummy lah! It's like a must buy everytime I go to USS but it's so expensive lor, $4.50 for one stick, when are you need is like 3 cheapo ingredients lol.
So if you don't know what is churros, here is it:

It taste just like donuts actually!
It's just deep fried dough covered with cinammon sugar/chocolate dip or whatever you like.
This will be the end product if you were to follow this recipe:

Usually if you get churros outside it comes in a longer stick but for mine I just make it around the size of my fingers so it's easier to bite.
RECIPE:
(Adapted from http://chocolateoblivion.blogspot.sg/2012/02/churros-bianca.html )
For the dough:
500ml water
255g plain flour
1 tsp salt (you can change it to sugar if you want it to be sweet)
For the topping:
1 tablespoon of cinnamon powder
1 tablespoon of sugar
Melted chocolate
Instructions:
1. Add salt to water and bring it to boil.
2. Add in the flour and mix well.
3. Let the dough cool down for 15 minutes.
4. Pipe out the dough using a cookie nozzle. (HARDEST PART BECAUSE THE DOUGH IS SO DAMN STICKY)
5. Deep fry the churros until it turned golden brown.
AND TADA THIS IS WHAT YOU GET:

Apparently there are two kind of churros - Spanish and Mexican but I tried out the spanish one cox it's the easiest to make LOL. Talking about lazy :x BUT WHATEVER LAH !!!! They still taste good :B

For the toppings, mix the cinnamon powder and sugar together to make cinnamon sugar. You can adjust according to your liking! For example if you like it sweeter you can just add in more sugar.
I also tried coating my churros with chocolate and top it off with some rainbow sprinkles and they look extra pretty!!!!

Aren't they pretty ?! *_____*
Don't you feel that rainbow sprinkles always makes food happier?! hahaha.
Personally I love both of the toppings but I guess most people will like the chocolate one more because it's sweeter!
One thing about churros is that THEY ARE VERY ADDICTIVE so...

See you guys in the next post! x
HOW TO: Make rainbow cupcakes
Saturday, October 5, 2013
As promised in the previous blog post, this post will be a tutorial !! So in this blogpost you will learn how to make rainbow cupcakes! Actually it's not really a rainbow lah, it's more of pastel cupcakes lol.
SO LET THE TUTORIAL BEGIN!

I'm very lazy to go get your normal baking ingredients I decided to get cake mix instead! Trust me this will save you alot of trouble when you're cleaning up later on. I got mine from Shengshiong for $4 I think!
SO ALL YOU NEED IS...
A packet of white cake mix and:

Water, oil and eggs!
Secondly, you just dump all the ingredients into the egg mixer and mix!

Now comes the fun part:
MIXING THE COLORS!!!

I didn't made rainbow cupcakes cox I don't have so many colors at home and I'm too lazy to mix so many colors also so I decided to just go with 4 colors!
You just need to seperate the cake mix into different bowls and drop a few drops of colorings into the cake mix! Be careful not to drip too much cox the colors will turn out really dark !!
So you just fill your cupcake cases with the cake mix!


Look like paddlepop hor !!!



And tada you're done !! You can also frost it with cream if you want but the cream was too sweet for my liking so I prefer it plain.
YEP SO THAT'S ALL FOR MY TUTORIAL !
See you guys soon ;)
