'Malaysianized' Okonomiyaki

Okono~ Okonomiyakiiii~ I love this thing. To me, it's somewhat a mix between a meal and a snack. I used to make this whenever I reach home after a hard day at school. Actually, if you search for the real Japanese pancake recipe, it is sooo far off the recipe. WHY? Because they use so much of their local foodstuff which we, Malaysian, find it hard to get. So, it's not REALLY typically Japanese.


Red Velvet Cupcakes

Red Velvet. I know it's a trend now in Malaysia. Next to overly priced macarons. ANYWAY, this is not a macaron recipe. This is a red velvet recipe. I know you guys saw the pic. Tempting, I know.

My recipe is adapted from a famous YouTube chef. Chef John from Foodwishes.  His recipes are AMAZING. Well, not that I tried all of them, I just found it delicious, by the looks of it. Somehow like how Nigella Lawson and Jamie Oliver does on TV. Oh yeah, if you don't know these two other worldly celebrity chefs, you are missing something great in your poor life! FOOD PORN that is.

Carrot Cupcake with Orange Cheese Frosting

This is my mother's recipe she adapted after a TV show somewhere. I've made my modifications also. Us, females in my family, have a thing for experiments in the kitchen. We'd add in a slight unexpected ingredient in our recipes. Bravery in the kitchen HAHA. Anyway, hope you guys aren't afraid to do so yourselves!

Cream Cheese Frostings

There two types of cream cheese frostings that I like. The oozy and creamy kind and the meringue buttercream kind. The basic cream cheese recipe is a lot sweeter and melts faster than the meringue buttercream due to our country's hot weather. The meringue buttercream is light and it holds it shape. Perfect for piping with different piping tip shapes. I'll compile both recipes for you, so you can choose which you'd want :D

[fic033] I Had A GREAT time



Oh oh! I made something, three days ago! :D

Vanilla ice cream, orange cake dough and cinnamon waffles :D
So, I was actually playing with the flavours of the cake. As u might know, I made chocolate cake in a mug before and I tested with orange flavoured concentration that my mom usually use to make beverages. I half-en the actual measurements of the recipe and made my own modifications. The batch ended up being too sweet. A bit too sweet to eat just like that. So, I squished the fudge-like cake into a ball, like when u squish a piece of white bread with ur fingers and it'll clump together, and disintegrate the ball into pieces. In the end, I ate the cake 'dough' with vanilla ice cream. I thought the texture would be like ice cream and cookie dough, AND IT WAS! The taste is just DAMN lovely :D
