2. Add a pinch of salt and 2 tablespoons of sugar to the pot.
3. Cook till yam is tender.
4. Drain and keep the boiling water for use later.
5. Mash the yam with a fork, adding olive oil to round out the taste and some of the boiling water to obtain the consistency you like.
6. In the meantime, cut peeled pumpkin into wedges. Rub with a dash of light olive oil and roast in 200 degress Celsius oven till the pumpkin is softened and caramelized. This should take 30 minutes or so.

Anyone can tell me how much is the measurement of 1 cup here?
Quoted from above : *1 cup of sugar, 1 cup of water, 1 cup of peeled gingko nuts.*

Tape Pudding

None of you hv been asking me why and wat happened to me as I never explore my culinary skill anymore since quite a while.
I did question myself then. Why ya?
Answer is tat I hv been occupied by many projects on those hectic weeks back. Projects? Am I naming it true? Haha. Dun think so la. I am exaggerating!

Ermm, glimpsed at Tape Ketan Pudding's recipe when I was idling(actually not the correct term if I called it as "idle", more appropriate if I said I was clashed by an ennui) at office few days ago. Just realize tat I will be battling wif another huge ennui tomorrow! I loathe Monday, man!

Because of I love black tape, then come to my mind... Why not?


Naive me hv been mis-interpreted the word split. The recipe told me to split the pandan leaves to add more fragrance.
And so I followed the instruction. Hence, wat a heck! I hv to muster my efforts to pick the ripped pandan leaves amidst the concoction! *Piang!!*
So, phai she to tell you tat if you might be finding small ripped pandan leaves inside yor mouth when u nibble the pudding. :( I cant find any liao since it was really being blended perfectly!
Smart deer may not fall onto the same hole again for twice. I am tat smart deer. Hehe..
Behold tat pandan leaves! BIG BIG pieces for the sauce tis time. :)


Excuse me..... Squeeze squeeze... Giv me lil bit space for frosting..

Storing inside the fridge for around 30mins plus. And........ here is the outcome!

Sad to enact the hope became a horror. It was too sweetttt!!!!

Am sure tat you guys will not wish to be diagnosed wif diabetes aftermath for gnawing my homemade pudding, rite?

P/S : Kindly ignore the label for tis entry. Hehe..

Weekend

Wat to do on my weekend?
Nv cum to my mind tat i will cook sumthing at evening time, as i supposed to spend countless of time just to prepare 1 a.k.a. one kind of cuisine onli. I am a slow motion auntie mah.. hehe..
Was idling at office and incredibly weary wif papers and documents strewn on my desk, starting to loathe office ambience, wif the exception of my cute colleagues making joke once a while, and we laughed out loud. No matter boss was around or not. *kind of protest!!* Hehe..
Surfing surfing browsing browsing can kill the time effortlessly! Managed to find out gud recipe on tis Mushroom omelette wif oyster sauce. Texted mom and sis to assure tat all the ingredients needed were all standby inside the fridge.
Half an hour was enuf for me tis time round, and no sweating! :)

An advance update for tomo to-do-list :
