Purple Sweet Potato Mousse Swiss Roll 紫薯仔慕斯瑞士卷

I bought a kilo of purple sweet potatoes a few days back and not sure what to make...... I used half of them to make six flavour tong sui dessert and still have another half kilo left sitting there. Oh well, I wanna to make something quick and simple, so that I can go aftering my K drama later on.... haha.... Finally, decided to make sweet potato mousse which is easy to prepare. On the other hand, bake a quick sponge and Swiss roll is the best choice cause no need cake dividing or things like that. Just spread and roll it up. And then end of the story ...... haha.... Oh mygoodness .... haha...  Please read on for more.

(A)
4 egg yolk
20gm  fine sugar
60ml   milk

1 tspn  vanilla extract/essence

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...

Deep Fried Cheesy Taro Balls 台式炸起司芋头酥

This is another version of taro balls that I am working with, unlike the common taro ball called "wu kok'. 'Wu kok' has 5 spice aroma and with the hairy outstanding crust and savory fillings.

Note for my dearest readers :  For further enquiry, kindly email directly to me. Thank you. When you are in the market, go look for taro that is around 530gm cause after all the cutting and cleaning it will became 400gm something.
