Dorayaki, a popular Japanese sweet, is delicious as it is, but you can add extra filling such as Whipped Cream, Butter Cream, OR Peanut Butter if you like it. Matcha Cream is my favourite at the moment. Because Dorayaki’s pancakes and ‘Tsubu-an’ (Sweet Azuki Paste) are very sweet, Matcha Cream shouldn’t be too sweet. And …
This is quick and easy Matcha flavoured Whipped Cream, that can be used for cake decoration, Japanese sweets such as parfait, OR whatever you wish to use. Some people mix Matcha Powder with water before mix it with Cream, but you really don’t need to do it. You don’t need to sift it through a …
The other day, I tasted a store-bought Crepe, and it was absolutely awful. Crepes are basically very thin pancakes, and it is easy to make. You don’t need a specific crepe pan, use a frying pan. The awful store-bought Crepe inspired me to make this treat today. I wrapped Banana and Whipped Cream with them. …
‘Kinako Candies’, a very old Japanese sweet, is traditionally made with ‘Kinako’ (Finely Ground Roasted Soy Beans) and starch syrup called ‘Mizuame’. My recipe uses Honey instead of ‘Mizuame’. However, some people can’t eat Honey. This is a new version of ‘Kinako Candies’, and it can be made with Sugar and Cream. Makes 16 to …
The other day, I made ‘Choc Ripple Biscuit & Ricotta Dessert’, and it seemed my husband didn’t like it. He said it was grainy, and Cream would taste better than Ricotta. So I made this dessert today, using up all leftover Arnott’s Choc Ripple Biscuits. The whipped Cream was flavoured with Mint Syrup that I …
‘Creme Caramel’ is not the easiest dessert to make. BUT, if for 1 serving, ‘Microwave Creme Caramel’ can be made quickly and easily. Today I replaced a half of Milk with Mascarpone, because I wanted to use up a small amount of leftover Mascarpone. I believe you can use Sour Cream OR Double Cream instead. …
When I was cleaning my kitchen pantry yesterday, I found some leftover Savoiardi (Sponge Fingers). There were 12 fingers. They were not enough to make my Super Easy ‘Tiramisu’, so I decided to make these individual Tiramisu Dessert. It is almost identical to my ‘Matcha Tiramisu Dessert’. It is easy to make and impossible to …
‘Creamy Tomato Prawn Pasta’ is popular. If you are looking for a simple recipe for single serving, try this easy recipe that can be cooked with common ingredients only. If you are cooking for more servings, you can simply multiply this recipe. I use Linguine OR Fettuccine, but you can use your favourite long Pasta. …
This soft and fluffy ‘Milk Tea Mousse Jelly’ is very easy to make, yet it can be a fancy dessert for your dinner party. You need to make STRONG Tea first. I used a tea bag of Ceylon Extra Strength Black Tea, but you can use your favourite Tea leaves. Chai is also suitable. Makes …
Shelley, a friend of mine, gave me her home-grown Lemons the other day. Using one of them, I made these delicious Lemon Bavarois today. As you can see in the recipe below, the ingredients that you need are basic things only. It is quite easy to make, yet it can be a fantastic dessert. Lemon …
Fruit are popular ingredients to make Ice Cream. Chocolate and Nuts are also popular. Have you ever used Sweet Potato? Puree softly cooked Sweet Potato and add it to Vanilla Ice Cream. Today I used an orange coloured Sweet Potato. I added a little Ground Cinnamon, and Rum Raisins as well. This home made Ice …
My husband bought a jar of Thickened Cream the other day, and that had a discount sticker on it. It was half the price because the ‘used by date’ was next day! He used it when he ate a piece of cake next day, but on the day after, the jar was still nearly full …
