Fried Banana Fritters~炸香焦糕~

~Mari-mari ...goreng pisang, goreng pisang...three for one ringgit!!~
 Banana fritters in Malay is 'Goreng pisang'

Remember when we were young (my 2 younger sister and I) my mum use to make banana fritters for sell in the central wet market. We have to wake up early in the morning in order to get ready all the ingredients for my mum. 
At that time 1 piece of banana fritter cost only 20cents but now 1 piece cost 40 cents. Nowadays, when the 'tauke noir' who sell kuih muih business is not so good, you can get 1 ringgit for 3 pieces...:p ..(shhh..that is a little secret )

Instead of buying, why not DIY you own Banana Fritters. You know what you are adding in your banana fritters. That is no flavouring,  no colouring and the oil is fresh. (cooking oil for frying the fritters) I used 'Pisang Tanduk' to make these Banana Fritters. Pisang Tanduk is a Malay named for this particular type of banana. This kind of banana is big and long. Its texture is firmer and when it is ripen it is really sweet. You can have a looks at this banana here PisangTanduk in Chen's blog (A journey called LIFE)



Batter:
50g self raising flour 
3/4 tbsp rice flour
1 tbsp Hup Leong (cook's frying powder)
1/8 tsp salt
1/2 tsp sugar
80ml water
1/2 tbsp oil 


2 cups of cooking oil for deep frying


To do:
1)Mix all together and rest for 5 minutes. 


~Put all dry ingredients in a mixing bowl~

~Mix a well in the flour and pour in wet ingredients...Mix..Mix~

~Batter is done..~


2)Dip the slice banana into the batter and coat thinly. 
3)Deep fry till golden brown.
4)Drain and place on kitchen towel. Serve.


~I found adding a little of this powder make the banana fritters crispy on the outside and soft and nice inside.~

~This fritters stays crispy a little on the outside when it is cold too~

~This coating is not too thick and it is not hard. It is crispy with a little soft ...~


**Notes: Drain excess oil from fritter after frying on rack or kicthen towel. This is a must to keep the fritters crispy on the outside...^^

  11. Kate, 炸香焦是凉了不大好吃。不过这个食谱还好,凉了还会有点脆。所以嘛, 我们都很常看见卖香蕉糕的直炸直卖咯。。。:p

A Sarawak Cake ~ Cake Hitam ( 砂劳越的蛋糕 ~ 黑美人蛋糕)

Sarawak is famous of its' Steamed Cakes and Layer Cakes (Kek Lapis). Steamed Cakes in Sarawak are mostly steamed for hours. I have done a steamed cake that took me 7 hours to cook. Can you imagine that!!  Crazy me!! I can't believe that i have done it just because i love that particular cake so much. I have tasted the cake in a Malay friend's house while go visiting on a Hari Raya. The name of that Cake is Kek Hati Parek. This Malay friend of mine, she is so so kind to share her recipe to me. This will be share in future.  砂劳越有好几种著名的蛋糕. 其中有千层蛋糕和蒸蛋糕.  我各人很喜欢蒸的蛋糕.  砂劳越的蒸蛋糕通常是需要蒸上2个小时以上.  记得我成蒸过一粒蒸蛋糕用了7个小时. 是不是有点'疯了' 7个小时!! 当时, 真的! 太喜欢那蛋糕了(Hati Parek 蛋糕) . 是在有一年的开斋节拜访一位马来朋友时在她家吃过. 就回味无穷. 跟她要了食谱:D  今天先不谈7个小时的蒸蛋糕, 就留下次吧! In this post i am going to share another Sarawak steamed cake which is very popular in Sarawak. It is Kek Hitam which means Black Cake. This cake is also known as Kek Serikaya (Screwpine custard Cake) or Kek Belacan (Shrimp paste ...

Ayam Masak Merah ... 香辣红番茄鸡

Ayam Masak Merah  is a Malay dish named Malay Red Cook Chicken.  The red colored comes from the tomato ketchup/puree and chilies.  I know my kids loves tomato and this dish is cooking with tomato ketchup. Oh!! they will love this tasty, yummy Red Cooked Chicken. One thing i am worrying is that, this dish will be spicy so i decide to cook the kids version by reducing the chillies to the lowest amout, that is 1/2 a chilli. The result is wonderful..my kids love..love..love this :) 香辣红番茄鸡, 是道吃过就会爱上的一道佳肴. 它的红是来之红番茄/番茄酱和红辣椒的天然色素. 我家宝贝们爱番茄酱, 我想谁家宝贝不爱呢!! 就想煮这道佳肴给他们尝尝. 可是啊!! 又担心辣, 我要香不要辣..就来个宝贝们的不辣而香的红番茄鸡吧!! :D 真的宝贝们爱吃哦!! 开心:D 看看..买相还不错吧? What do you think of this dish?? Don't you think this red colour is so makes this dish looks so inviting!! Cooking this is no fuss at all. It is simple or maybe you need to blend the shallots, ginger and chillies.  First marinate the chicken ( i used 2 large chicken maryland and i chopped into 2) with turmeric ...
