Apple Oatmeal Crisps


This is a light and healthy dessert, best eaten with a dollop of ice-cream or even on its own.  It's more or less like my other recipe on apple raisin crumble.  Refrigerate leftovers and reheat before serving if desired.




Combine oil with sugar, add in flour, oats, almonds and raisins.  Spoon oatmeal mixture on top of the apple slices, sprinkle more oats and drizzle golden syrup before putting them into the oven.





Sour green apples can be transformed into a scrumptious sweet dessert, full of wholesome goodness!

Ingredients
  • 2 granny smith apples - peeled, cored and sliced
  • 7 tsps canola oil
  • 3 Tbsp brown sugar
  • 1.1/2 oz plain flour
  • 40 gm rolled oats
  • 50 gm almonds/walnuts - coarsely chopped
  • 2 Tbsp raisins
  • 1.1/2 Tbsp golden syrup
Method
  1. Arrange apple slices on the bottom of the ramekins.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk canola oil with sugar till dissolved, add in flour, almonds and raisins. Mix well.
  3. Mix in 20 gm oats.
  4. Press the oatmeal on the apple slices.
  5. Sprinkle remaining 20 gm oats on top and drizzle some golden syrup.
  6. Bake in preheated oven @ 180 deg C for 40 mins. till light brown.
  7. Serve warm or chilled, with ice cream or on its own.

    Looks almost like apple pie but you have a healthier topping - not pastry but oatmeal! Nice...

Double Boiled Herbal Chicken Soup

Double boiling is slow cooking ........ means to put a soup pot or any covered ceramic or steel pot inside a bigger pot, immerse in boiling water, and let the soup cook at a lower temperature.  Hence the soup is cooked from heat generated from the boiling water and not from direct heat source. Double boiling lets the soup ingredients slowly release their nutrients into the soup, thus making it tasty and wholesome.  It's a long cooking process, roughly averaging 2 to 4 hours.  The tip is not to open the cover to check on the soup as it'll bring down the temperature and affect the cooking process.  The plus point is there's little evaporation and the soup will not boil over.  The only thing is to monitor that there's enough water in the bigger pot and not let it run dry.  Of course, nowadays, the slow cooker is another alternative to double boiling, saves the hassle of checking the water level.

Herbal Jelly ~ Gui Ling Gao

H erbal Jelly ~ Gui Ling Ga o literally translated means 'Tortoise Jelly' is one of my family's favourite desserts.  It's much more economical to prepare this at home for you'll need to fork out between Rm 9 to Rm 11 for a bowl of this cooling dessert in any of those herbal tea outlets.  This soothing jelly, served chilled, is supposed to be able to help reduce our body heat, helps to get rid of toxins and is believed to be good for the skin thus culminating a healthier complexion.
