春去...秋来...中秋节又来了...到处都在卖月饼...
吃月饼..有传统的,  上海的, 冰皮的, 水晶的, 好吃,好吃...大家都会问..."会很甜吗?  我很怕太甜."
无花八门.....的种类...我都喜欢...因为我也怕太甜,那只好自己动手做啦...:p
孩子们就喜欢在着时候提灯笼...我想每个小朋友都爱吧!!
~我做了水晶月饼...是豆浆密红豆水晶月饼和椰香密红豆水晶月饼.

Mid Autumn is around the corner, it time to celebrate mooncake festival. You can see all types of mooncakes selling in the market. 
Mooncakes have all kind of variety..like traditonal mooncake, shanghai mooncake, snowny mooncake, crystal mooncake..haha all kind of it. Mooncakes are delicious but there is always a question ask..'are these mooncake low sugar, I don't like it too sweet?' DIY your own mooncake, you can add sugar at your own preferance...:)
My will kids love to carry their lantern on mooncake festival. I guess all kids love to do that and me I like to make mooncake on this day.

**If you like to do the skin into coconut milk flavour just change the 900ml soy milk to 200ml thick coconut milk and 700ml water. Boil with water first after that then pour in coconut milk to prevent over boil the coconut milk.

  做法:
1) 把糖,甜奶 ,盐,燕菜粉和班兰叶加入豆浆煮开. 不可开的太久因为豆浆会变的很多泡.
2) 加入少许红色,拌匀.
3) 把摸子过下清水,在倒入煮好的燕菜. 只倒半满, 等燕菜半凝结. 在把馅料放入.
4) 在把燕菜倒满摸子. 放入冰箱等水晶月饼凝结.

**如想做椰奶的就把900ml豆浆分量换去200ml浓椰奶和700ml水. 先把水和其他煮开后加入椰奶..这样椰奶不会煮太久.


~ soy milk is milky colour I find its kind of bored so I add a drop of pink colour to it ~


 ~ coconut milk is really rich and fragrance but the colour is pale, I add a drop of green colour to make it look like emerald..:)
~ 椰奶很香但色泽白白的,我加了少许绿色。。相是翡翠。。:)

~ 里斗是密红豆馅~


 
~ I like the filling with the whole red bean in it~
~ 密红豆粒在馅里斗口感很好~
