Hello everybody.

Have this teramisu order tomorrow so as usual I always do cold dessert a day before.

Today’s twist in teramisu was that I used chocolate Easter eggs as cups, removed top with a sharp hot knife, filled them with lady finger biscuits dipped in coffee and cream.

Hello everybody, hope you’re all enjoying the amazing weather.

Well today I can assure you that everything happens for a reason, I absolutely had no idea what to cook this morning then by coincidence I found out that my freezer was off since a while from the loosened wire so I had to cook melted stuff. End result were fava beans and steaks in yogurt, two pieces of scallop and two burgers.

My son decided to stuff burgers with cheese so I coated it with eggs, flour and breadcrumbs then deep fried the ball.

Result was variety of yummy stuff at the end

Oreo and Caramel Popsicles.

Good evening everybody.

Long busy day since early morning guess Sumner events started already!
Was invited to a big family breakfast gathering at my uncle’s house and as usual I love to bring a special dessert or dish with me so today’s pick was something new, Oreo and Caramel Popsicle.

Though recipe is very easy and simple but it’s a bit messy process specially dipping in chocolate and arranging them in a nice arrangement.

Oreo ones consists of crushed Oreo (24 pieces)  with two tablespoons of heavy cream all mixed well then formed into balls, freeze for two hours then dipped in chocolate.

Caramel ones consists of sweetened condensed milk cooked well till thick and caramelized mixed with plain or Lotus biscuits.

Taste was great but I’m not pleased with final look, next time I’ll decorate them differently,guess process needs more patience 😀

Corn Chicken Soup.

wp-1459954991677.jpg

Hello everybody.

Woke up with a terrible flu,headache and fever that shouts out for hot drinks and soup.

I boiled some chicken with whole onion, carrot and seasoning ( cinnamon stick, pepper kernels, cardamom and bay leaf)  with the intention to make chicken vegetable soup but then I switched to corn and cream cause kids prefer it I’m sure.

Ingredients and method:

*one small onion finely chopped.
* 1 cup corn.
* some cooked chopped chicken pieces.
* 2 tablespoons butter.
* 3 tablespoons flour.
* 4 cups chicken broth.
* 1 cup fresh cream.
* salt,pepper and a pinch of nutmeg.

* heat butter then saute onions.
* add flour and whisk well.
* add broth and keep whisking or you can use hand blender if you got clots.
* add corn and chicken.
* season and leave to simmer for 20-25 minutes.

Serve with sticks or garlic bread.
