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...

Mini lime marmalade chiffon cake

These little chiffon cupcakes were made with lime marmalade.  Other than orange marmalade I've never come across lime marmalade and so this went into my shopping basket when I was in Perth last.  It's slightly more sour than orange marmalade but it's delicious when you have it with butter or peanut butter slathered on a slice of freshly baked bread or toast!

Kai Chai Paeng aka Little chicken biscuit

K ai Chai Paeng or 'Little chicken biscuit' was one of my father's favourite item to take away whenever we stopped by Bidor, a small town south of Ipoh on the way to Kuala Lumpur, long ago before the North-South Highway came into existence.  Those days, Bidor's famous restaurant, Pun Chun ,was like a half-way house whereby travellers would stop by for their signature 'Ngap thui meen' or duck thigh noodles. Pun Chun restaurant is right in the middle of town along the main road and has been in operation for 70 years and their Kai Chai Paeng were of the thick, doughy type made with lard and some pork but now they also have the thin and crispy version. Another small town, known as Kampar which is nearer to Ipoh is also famous for their thin and crispy version of  Kai Chai Paeng.  However,  I'm not too sure which town is the originator of these 'chickenless', unique but absolutely aromatic 'Little chicken biscuit'.

Braised Pork Ribs with Yam & Wood ear fungus

I bought this yam/taro from a wet market and the lady assured me that her yams are creamy when cooked.  She cut off a very small piece to justify her statement and true enough I saw some powdery substance on the knife.  It can be very frustrating when you end up getting a yam that's firm even when cooked for yams have a hardy taste with a minimal amount of sweetness.  But if you pair it up with some meat and fermented bean curd, the dish will be transformed into a tasty delicacy. Recipe for Braised Pork Ribs with Yam & Wood Ear Fungus Ingredients 750 gm Yam/Taro, peeled and cut into chunks 450 gm pork ribs, marinated with some seasalt 30 gm wood ear fungus, soaked, stemmed and cut into strips 2 pieces fermented beancurd (Nam Yue), mashed with some water 1 small knob ginger, smashed 5 cups water or more 1/2  tsp  dark soya sauce Salt and sugar to taste 2 tsp Shaoxing wine Method In a wok, saute th...
