I have been in the cooking mood lately, trying all sorts of recipe and cooking during weekends. I saw this recipe from Christine's Recipe, I fell in love with this recipe blog after finding it.
Ingredients:
- 180 gm plain flour
- 6 Tbsp hot water, about 80C
- 3 Tbsp cold water
- 170 gm Chinese chives
- 160 gm minced pork
- 1 tsp minced garlic
Seasoning for minced pork:
- 1 Tbsp light soy sauce
- 1/2 tsp sugar
- 2 tsp cornflour
- 1/2 tsp chicken stock powder
- 1 tsp Shaoxing wine
- Pinch of salt, to taste
- dash of sesame oil
- pinch of pepper
Method (making filling):
1) Rinse chives and briefly blanch in boiling water until just tender. Drain well and let cool. Squeeze water out of the chives and chopped into small pieces. Set aside.
2) Add seasoning, minced garlic and chopped chives into minced pork. Blend all ingredients towards only one direction, either clockwise or anti-clockwise according to your preference, no turning backwards though. This method will ensure the pork stick together very well. Mix pork very well until elastic, about 15 minutes. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. The filling is done.
Method (making and frying buns):
1) Sift flour into a big bowl. Add 6 tablespoons of 80C hot water into the flour. Use a spatula to mix well and create some little flour crumbs.
2) Add 1 tablespoon of cold water at a time into the flour. Use hand to knead the dough until the surface is not sticky. Brush a bit of oil on the bottom of a bowl, place dough inside and covered with a damp towel. Let sit for 30 minutes.
3) Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead a few times until smooth. Roll and stretch the dough out into a long strip, about 1 1/2 inches in thickness. Divide into 10 equal parts. Roll each part into a small ball. Lightly flatten with your palm and roll out into a thin, even round using a rolling pin. Wrap a heaped teaspoon of filling in the center. Seal the edge (Trim excess dough on the seal if you like, it tastes and looks better then.) with the seal facing down.
4) Heat non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of oil. Place wrapped pork buns in a single layer without touching with each other. Fry them until both sides are light brown. Add 1/2 cup of boiling water, cover with a lid and cook until the water dries up. Done! Serve hot, accompanied with a zesty dipping sauce, combining soy sauce, vinegar and chili sauce.
The finished product, though it didn't look as nice as the ones Christine made, but it tasted good and I think it look alright too for a first timer.

Personally, I am a porridge lover though people always say that porridge is a sick men's food but to me its not!
There are so many ways you can cook porridge, not just the plain white ones. I have tried many recipes of porridge and the one I am sharing today is one of the newer ones.
The finished product
Dried veg, about RM3.00 per packet
How it look like
Soak the dried veg in water until it's soft and rinse it with water a few times to wash away the sand and dirt
Once its cleaned, cut it into smaller pieces
Pre-soak the rice with water so that it will cook faster
Roast pork bones, you can buy them at the roast pork/char siu stall in the market
Boil the dried veg with roast pork bones first for about 2 hours, the longer the better. I normally put it in my thermos pot for a few hours.
Add in the rice and cook under low fire until rice is soft
Wah lah.. yummy dried veg & roast pork bones porridge!

I was cracking my head as to what cake to make to celebrate the May & June babies of the cell group. I have been craving for durian cheese cake, I tried it one time for a friend's birthday last year. So, I took the courage, did some research online and decided to make it. The cake turned out to be great and yummy, everyone loved it! The recipe I used was adapted from the Oreo Cheese Cake Recipe instead of orea, I replaced them with durian.
1) Cream the whipping cream until mouse is form.
Put the whipped cream in fridge for use later
2) Mix cream cheese and durian flesh and mix well together.
3) Add the gelatin mix well then add in the whipped cream
4) Pour the batter into the base of cheese cake and chill overnight
I was really satisfied with how the cake turned out to be, I will be making it again this weekend!

I was having sore throat and cough, and my friend passed me so homemade salted lime mix it with hot water, apparently will help cure sore throat and cough. The remedy did help, so I figured to make some myself to keep it handy just in case someone in the family is down with sore throat or cough
Some lime, wash it thoroughly. I rinsed it with some boiling water too.
Crystal Salt
Place first a layer of salt, then a layer of lime and continue the process till lime finishes also make sure that the salt covers the last layer of lime.
Layer by layer
Leave this aside for for about a month or more, the longer the better. I will post the pictures of the end product later.
