Sheppard's Pie

This is the easiest dish to cook. You need mashed potatoes, vegetables, meat and cream of mushroom/chicken soup. Short cut version. Instead of cooking the gravy from scratch, I used Campbell soup.

Cooked the vegetables (brocolli, cauliflower, carrots, mushroom) and meat (sausages, chicken or etc) together in the soup. Poured into a baking tin and covered with mashed potatoes. Baked for 20mins @ 175 degree.

Done.

D Chai Boey that I cooked

Finally cooked chai boey on Friday after so many failed attempts in getting the most important ingredient (kiam chai = salted vege) from the market. I cooked a big pot - hmmm can feed 20 people. Had this for dinner yesterday. A ma loved it, her bowl was clean and dry :) I gave them the whole pot after keeping some for myself.

Oreo Cheesecakes

Baked this for GL's birthday. The initial plan was to bake my normal cheesecake until I saw this recipe the other day. It turned out well. Hope she likes it.

For some of the cakes, I removed the oreo's cream fillings as I thought it would be too sweet but without the cream, the base turned out to be too dry (commented by E). So next time stick to the recipe ...hahahahhahaha.

there is tomorrow

did not wake up in time for market this morning. well, there is always tomorrow :)

got to make it tomorrow as i want to eat chai boey... i am craving for one.

going to make chai boey tomorrow and this means that i need to wake up by 6am to go to market to buy 'kua chai' or 'kiam chai'. hope i can get up. will update more later.

dis is the cake

Ry helping me wit the cake decorations - topping it with sprinkles. Lovely heart for the kids tomorrow.

Well, hope the kids like it. When I told Ry that I was baking choc cake for his school's party tomorrow, he reminded me that his frens dont like anything dark coz they said it is yucky. I told him we will have colorful sprinkles on top and I am sure his frens will like it. Will see tomorrow.

Day Care CNY Party

dis time i am going to bake moist choc cake with colorful sprinkles. the last time, i baked fruit cake for the Christmas party and Ry came home telling me that his frens said that the cake is so dark and plain. guess kids dont prefer fruit cake - well it is an acquired liking.

so dis time i want his frens to tell him that the cake is delicious. actually i dont think ry care at all... him being a kid and a boy. i care. i dont want his school frens to have the impression that his mother 'tak tau' bake :)
