Thanks food blogger Aunty Yochana for sharing this recipe.
If you read the comments in her blog, you'd realise that many Malaysians/Singaporeans living abroad miss it ; something which used to
be easily available at their neighbourhood morning market and never
thought of making it at home!
As advised by Aunty yochana I've
replaced the fruit salt with instant yeast since Eno (a kind of fruit
salt) wasn't available here. And I've apportioned the recipe acording to
200gm of plain flour i.e. 2/5 of the original recipe which yield 5
pancakes.
Verdict :-
I couldn't stop munching !
Texture wise it is not very near to honeycomb surface that I'm familiar with, perhaps that is due to the substitution of Eno.
Anyway, I'll definately make this again :)
Chinese new year is fast approaching, this year falling on valentine's
day! This cookie is one of the must treats during the festive season.
Coarsely ground peanuts are the main ingredients ; however, I have
substituted it with left over ground walnut which worked out fine .
Recipe from here
Seafood is rather expensive here as Hungary is a landlock country. On
top of that the current economy only result in even higher prices for
"fresh" sea fish. So I've opted for frozen fish from the hyper mart to
sooth my craving for sea fish. Last week, I tried this "HEKK" brand and
it tasted fine; unlike some of the frozen fish on sale, this doesn't
smell and taste too fishy. Sorry I couldn't recognise and name the type
of fish that I ate (!) because I just realised that it only says tengeri hal (sea fish) on the packet ... hmm..
If you can find fresh mackerel in your market, this recipe would work well with it! If not, you can always trial on other fish available to you.

This box of muffin
mix kept staring at me in the kitchen since Christmas (got it in a set
of gifts). I counldn't resist anymore, I have to give it a go!
Due
to my first bad experience (once only) with muffin mix (another brand),
which turned out dry, hard, powdery and the taste ....artificial ; I
didn't have too high of expection this time round.
Dr. Oetker
chocolate chips muffin mix changed my perception of pre-mixes. The
muffins were fluffy, wholesome, and didn't taste artificial at all. If
you want to spice it up, try twirling in some peanut butter (which i
did) or any other jams before baking. It was great for tea time...yum
..satisfying ;)
Note
: Included in the box was 1 pkt. of choc. chips, flour mix, 12 muffin
cups. Additional fresh ingredients - eggs, milks and oil
