my little favourite DIY

Never knew that this delicious chicken biscuits is from Kampar until Wendy's MFF for Perak month mention it. I tried made a similar kind of chicken biscuits before but it is quite different from this one. I like this version as it is the original Kampar chicken biscuits,  My Shawn loves this very much. He is the one who keep digging the cookies jar for this delicious biscuits.

Love this refreshing and cooling dessert. For hot days we are having here, this is a real thirst quencher. It is super cooling, so good! There is only 5 ingredients for this recipe. It is so easy to prepare.but you have to be patient, it takes 2 hours plus 1 hour and another 10 minutes before you can enjoy this dessert to the fullest. (I read in Alice's blog she mention something like this too..lol)  I cook this dessert for the second time...why?? I burnt the winter melon  soup for the first attempt. I set the pot of winter melon with water added to the hob to cook. Then i went to pick my kids from school. Later ......you know what happens :p It is really worth going for the second attempt, this dessert is really so good ..despite the sweetness...i just add more ice ..lol Petaling Street Lohan Guo Longan Drink - copycat Recipe soure: Wendyinkk Ingredients: 300g wintermelon 300g rock sugar (I used honey rock sugar) 3 lohan guo 100g dark longan flesh 2L water...

This is another Penang food that i learn from Wendy. I love spring rolls, be it of any type of spring roll. I just love them. I saw there is another type of spring roll called Penang Lok Bak from Alan's blog, I would like to try that out too. This Hainanese spring roll is using a own made crepe sheets. It is difference from those spring roll that uses popia skin or normal  bean curd sheets. Please refer to Wendy's video before you attempt to make this crepe sheet for this spring roll. You will have a clear idea on how to cook a prefect and nice crepe sheet. My first piece of crepe was bad, i tear it :p because i didn't watch the video ahead which i should. The crepe sheets is soft when it is hot so it is not easy to handle. If it is not handle well it will tear before it is cool. Another thing i found out is that if the crepe sheet is not cooked enough it will break when wrapping up the filling.  PLEASE!! watch Wendy's video , you will make a beautiful cre...

Participating in MFF every month let me learn a lot of authentic Malaysian food from different states which is very interesting  and new to me. This month is Penang month and Penang is a state that have lots and lots and lots of yummlicious food. This is 'Acar Awak' means pickled mixed vegetable . I first tried this when a mum of  my Shawn's class mate gave me a tub. Its difference from what we have here. After trying that tub i missed this Acar, the taste is so special with all the mixed vegetables...but at that time i did not know it is called Acar Awak. Until recently i saw Wendy post hers..I quickly try out the recipe. It turn out great and we enjoy this Acar Awak very much ^_^ Thanks to Wendy!   Acar 是 娘惹菜的其中一种，需要动用许多种本地香料和蔬菜配搭而完成。 制作过程是蛮多功夫的(麻烦一些:p)，而也需要花费 蛮 长时间来准备。 可是出来的成品.....香味浓烈，非常爽口，之前的努力都觉得物有所值！ 　 Acar Awak recipe source: WendyinKK Reference: Rasa Malaysia Nyonya Flavours (MPH Publication) Boon's Recipe Makes about...
