Choc Chips Raisin Muffin


I recently made this for my girl who will only insist on eating muffins that have loads of choc chips and raisins - an ideal accompaniment to go with afternoon tea, too.

2. Lightly beat the eggs, blend in the oil, soyabean milk, vanilla, and mix well.
3. Add the liquid ingredients to the dry ingredients, stir quickly till just moistened.
4. Fold in lightly the raisins and choc chips.
5. Spoon into well greased muffin tins or paper-lined muffin cups.
6. Bake in preheated oven @ 400 deg.F/200 deg.C, for about 25 minutes until golden brown and test with a skewer till it comes out clean.

Char Siew Pau ~ 蒸叉烧包

I have been itching to try out a Pau recipe and vaguely remember that I did make it once, long, long ago.  So I  got hold of my old file of recipes and finally managed to retrieve it.  I did it recently and must say that I'm satisfied with the result.  The texture of the Pau was soft and a bit chewy, wholesome and filling too.  Naturally, they didn't look so nice and round like the ones sold in the dim sum restaurants, but nonetheless I think homemade ones can be just as delectable as well.

Pumpkin Carrot Cake

I have never tried baking cakes with raw pumpkin and was glad when Amy Beh shared a recipe for Pumpkin Carrot Cake.  The moist cake tasted good, the sweet pumpkin blended well with the slightly sourish cranberries.  I have reduced the sugar somewhat and tweaked the method too.  I'll be baking this again for the Chinese New Year.  This cake was an instant hit with my family ....... Try it!

Kuih Bangkit ~ CNY 2010

I recently made this Chinese New Year cookie, 'Kuih Bangkit' for my daughter to  bring back to Melbourne. As Chinese New Year is barely a month away, thought it best to post it now, perhaps you may like to try it out.  These cookies are not too sweet,  with a tinge of pandan fragrance coupled with a sweet taste of coconut ...... yummy.  They do keep well if they're thoroughly baked and they melt in the mouth!
