Durian CheeseCake, Indulgence ~榴莲乳酪蛋糕,飘香

Are you a fan of Durian?? If you say YES, you must try this!
I knew some people don't like it and some LOVE it!! Either you are the one who LOVE it or the one who TOTALly HATE it!! Hahaha!! 
Anyway, my family is a big fan of Durian. This is a treat for them since i have a box of frozen durian in the freeze. 'Shh!! i always have a box of durian standby in the freezer...lol"

This durian cheesecake is easy to whip up. It is a heavy type of cheesecake. It is rich, smooth and i like the addition of coconut milk in it. Coconut milk pair so well with durian. Do you like durian dodol? The taste is something like that but with rich thick and smooth texture from cream cheese and durian puree.


Durian Cheesecake

Just a simple shake of cocoa powder will give a pretty deco too.

Biscuit base add texture and flavor to the cake too.
        
This durian cheesecake yields a good portions of 12 pieces.

Durian is very mysterious! ....

What is so mysterious about it then?? first opening it is already very hard..with a cleaver..:0
Then we don't know whether it is a white or a yellow flesh..lol
It is yellow..yeah!! The durian puree used in this cake, are from 2 whole durian.
Durian, durian, durian, would you like to have a piece?  ; )

  4. Thanks for sharing this easy recipe! Shall bake one for my dad's birthday - his favourite!! :)
    Aside, how long can we keep the cake? Is it okay to bake 3-4 days before the day I want it to be consumed or not advisable?

    Also, is it ok that I used the cold refrigerated whipping cream instead of UHT?

Shark Fin Dumpling ~鱼翅饺

This Shark Fin Dumpling (yu chi gow), is one of my favorite dumpling. Although it is named Shark Fin Dumpling, but they contain no actual shark fin in it. Some say the look and shape of the dumpling does look like shark fin and other do include in imitation shark fin, though. I am lucky to have spotted this long hibernating in the book shelf chinese dim sum book ‘香港地道小吃’ translated as 'Hong Kong Authentic Tapas' Well, Do, you find this look like Shark's Fin?? 看看形状像不像鱼翅呢??  Filling for the ingredients are prawn, mince meat, carrot, yam bean and black fungus. Get ready the filling and the wanton wrappers. This is the parade of my Shark's Fin dumpling ... lol Homemade parchment paper liner. Arrange them neatly into the bamboo steamer. HOT! HOT! From the steamer!! Loaded with filling ..YUM! ENJOY~ Shark Fin Dumpling (yu chi gow) (Scallop dumpling /Cilantro dumpling - depends which filling you using) Recipe adapted from  ‘香港地
