Time flies, August is almost over.

August 31st marks the 51st Independence Day of Malaysia and September 1st is the beginning of Ramadan–the holy month of Islam. To celebrate the two important events in Malaysia, I thought I would introduce you to Kuih Bahulu, a traditional Malaysian kuih (or cake).

A favorite among many Malaysians of all races and ages, kuih bahulu is usually baked during the festive seasons such as Hari Raya and Chinese New Year. These sweet and eggy kuih go very well with coffee, and are always a crowd-pleaser during the festive seasons. A few kuih bahulu and a cup of coffee is a surefire way to greet your guests…

Flan (Crème Caramel/Caramel Custard) Recipe

I will be honest with you…I didn’t make these flans.

Although not quite similar, crepe sucre reminds me of Malaysian roti canai with sugar…both are equally great snacks and perfect with coffee…

Steamed Fish Rolls Recipe

(Chinese recipes, prepare authentic Chinese food now!)
Inspired by Chubby Hubby’s “Not Your Usual Egg Rolls” and “Steam Fish Rolls” by My Kithen Snippets, I made these fish rolls over the weekend.
These fish rolls call for two of my favorite ingredients–fish paste and eggs; they are not sushi, but fish paste wrapped with plain egg omelet and then steamed to mouth-watering…

Imitation Shark’s Fin and Crab Meat Omelette Recipe

(Chinese recipes, prepare authentic Chinese food now!)
One of the functions that I seriously enjoy is attending Chinese wedding banquets, which in my opinion is quite a dream come through for serious foodies like myself–well, minus the uninspiring ceremonies and acts such as deafening Yum Seng (bottoms up in Cantonese) echoes and really bad karaoke performance by obnoxious and drunk guests!

Lemon Chiffon Cake Recipe

This my lemon chiffon cake. I love the lemony essence and the pillowy soft texture of this chiffon cake.
Other than lemon flavor, I also love coffee and pandan (screwpine leaf) chiffon cake.
What kind of chiffon cake do you like?
