Banana Nutella Brownies ~ 榛子酱香蕉布朗尼

 

 If you are a fan of Nutella, you'll like this decadent dessert.  I've never tried making Brownies with bananas before but now that I've this recipe, I will have another option what to do with over ripe bananas, other than making muffins or banana bread.  These chocolatey Brownies are soft, texture is a bit cake like and can be stored in the refrigerator for a few days and they do taste better, when chilled.

You can make this yummy dessert to serve to your family and friends after a hearty X'mas eve dinner.

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.
