    Hi Cheah, with the gloomy sky outside, this dish brightens up the place. Should taste good and more aromatic with black pepper.

      You've said it, Kimmy. It's truly gloomy and hot outside no thanks to the haze that has enveloped Ipoh.

Recipe for Bunga Telang ~ Blue-pea Flower Snow Skin Mooncakes Ingredients 250 gm of QQ Snow mooncake premix (1 packet is 500 gm)  14 gm shortening Bunga Telang/Blue pea flower 220 ml water Pandan and Lotus mooncake paste 25 gm melon seeds, lightly toasted to be mixed into the paste Method ( as per instructions on the packet ) Wash the Bunga Telang and boil with 220 ml water, once boiled, discard the flowers and ...
