Chicken Floss Mochi Suzhou Mooncake @ 鸡肉丝麻糬苏州月饼

This chicken floss mochi Suzhou mooncake is a bit messy. It was cut while its still hot. Its my fault cause I am too anxious to find out the result. My heart beat is running wild when slicing up the thing. Luckily no heart attack ! haha.....

And here is the pastry when it is cut after cooled. You can clearly differentiate layer by layer easily. The bottom layer is the pandan flavour mung bean paste, the middle layer is the mochi dough and the top layer is the meat floss. I am thrilled ! I did it again successfully. Hopefully, I can produce as many kinds of mooncake as possible this year. And all my guests can enjoy all kinds of mooncake throughout the weeks before the mid-autumn festival arrived.

Keropok Lekor Terengganu 登嘉楼特色炸鱼饼

I can't believe it myself that I'm actually making  keropok lekor  !!! Gosh, never in my life I would imagine myself making this, Terengganu fish cracker ! Its hubby favourite. I actually wanted to buy some of these during my last visit to Terengganu but hubby said NO ! However, I knew I'm going to give this a shot when I reached home and this is it. I have fulfilled it.  Keropok lekor  is the specialty of the east and it is normally made with small fishes or leftover fishes from the market place. Unlike the common fish cracker which is thin and crispy,  keropok leko r  is slightly thicker and fishy flavoured. And I have chosen to use   ikan kembung (scomber or bloating fish ) for the test run, cause its cheap and meaty compare to other small fishes. Ingredients : 1 kg   ikan kembung or bloating fish 1/2 cup  water 1 tspn  vegetable granules 2 tspn  salt 1 tspn  pepper 200-250gm  tapioca starch Meth...
