恭喜发财!ɡōnɡ xǐ fā cái I wish You Great Prosperity!

My Small Lovely Kitchen

Atas permintaan beberapa teman dipaparkan ruang dapur kegemaran saya...kecil aje but all the kitchen area was fully utilised with built-in cabinet.

 

Di sini le aktiviti memasak dijalankan. Preparation kat dapur basah belakang tingkap tu. Mula2 memang plan nak letak roller blind kat tingkap tapi ruang yang ada tak mengizinkan installation ...so tingkap terbiar bogel je.. Any suggestion??
 
Ni oven kesayangan den ni..masak cookies and cakes je kat sini...sayang pulak nak buat ayam panggang....takut terpercik seluruh ruang oven..susah lak nak cuci. So boleh dikata kan under utilise le oven ni.

Pancake @ Vistana Hotel

Selalunya tak le suka sangat mkn pancake, tapi lepas makan pancake kat Vistana Hotel, Penang..fuyoo! "pinjam tagline digi" masih teringat2 lagi kesedapannya. Bila makan bersama Maple Syrup + butter + marmalade jam, lagi terangkat. So rasa teringin nak buat sendiri so cari resepi kat internet ni..

1. Basic Pancake Recipe

Serve these pancakes with butter and syrup.

 

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour, stirred or sifted before measuring
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 cups milk
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter

Preparation:

Sift together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and 1 1/2 cups of milk; add to flour mixture, stirring only until smooth. Blend in melted butter. If the batter seems too thick to pour, add a little more milk. Cook on a hot, greased griddle, using about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake. Cook until bubbly, a little dry around the edges, and lightly browned on the bottom; turn and brown the other side. Recipe for pancakes serves 4.

2. Applesauce Pancakes Recipe


  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup dark brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup applesauce
  • 1/4 cup melted butter

Apple Cider Syrup


  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 cups apple cider
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 cinnamon sticks

Preparation:

Apple Cider Syrup: In a heavy saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. When butter stops foaming, add the apple cider, brown sugar, and cinnamon sticks. Bring to a boil, stirring. Continue cooking over medium heat, stirring frequently, until reduced by half to about 1 to 1 1/4 cups. This will take about 15 minutes. The syrup will thicken as it cools. Remove cinnamon sticks and serve with pancakes. Applesauce Pancakes: In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Combine eggs, milk, applesauce, and butter; add to dry ingredients and mix well. Pour about 1/3 cup of batter onto a lightly greased hot griddle. Turn when bubbles form on top; cook until second side is golden brown. Keep warm while making the remaining pancakes.
Serves 6 to 8.
