Ultimate Vanilla Ice Cream


This is a recipe from BBC Good Food.

I made this ice cream without using the ice cream machine and it took half a day to be ready -- I whisked after every 45 minutes of freezing until the custard is thick and hard to stir. Then I froze it for another 2 hours before serving. The end result is rewarding!

Baked Rice



This is a very easy baked rice receipe. I made this twice and each time its ready in 45 minutes.

1) Stir-fry your uncooked rice in olive oil/unsalted butter, cloves of garlic and season with salt and pepper. Once, it is fragrance, add water to cook the rice.
2) Let the cooked rice cool and stir-in the ingredients - I have added cubes of pineapple and ham.
3) Transfer the mixture into a bakeware, spread some spoonful of Campbell's mushroom soup concentrate, and sprinkle the top with your favourite cheese.
4) Bake for about 30 minutes at 250 degrees or until golden brown.

Refer to Noobcook for the complete receipe.

Katherine Hepburn Brownies


This is not your typical brownies.
As you can see, the crust is crispy and the inside is extremely moist.
Do remember to reduce the sugar if you are using sweetened chocolate.
I have added lots of walnuts for bite. Interested? Here's the receipe.

Japanese Cotton Soft Cheese Cake & Tau Suan



Recently, I made two of my favourite treats.

The Japanese Cotton Soft Cheese Cake is not a new "project". I have made it a few times and shared with my family and colleagues. Good feedback were received.

I have not eaten Tau Suan for many years until a colleague mentioned that it is very easy to prepare. True enough, the ingredients are easily available and the steps are simple. This is my second attempt. It looks great and tasted heavenly with Chinese cruller.
