It is Easy to Make Konnyaku Jelly at Home!

Try this weekend something easy to make. Konnyaku jelly can be found easily at supermarkets these days. No need to go to the Mall and buy per piece or per pack. But that is if you can make equally nice ones yourself. Just follow the directions written on the packaging itself and you are all set to enjoy a nice weekend of Konnyaku fancy jelly with fruits and different colors.

Get one of those Konnyaku special jelly moulds to set them into nice heart, diamond or round button shapes. Drop fruits into the mould and then pour the mixture in after leaving to cool slightly for sometime. After that just place them into the fridge to set. The next day,  you can take them out and decorate on a nice plate before serve. To make things look even nicer, place some small flowers to decorate the platter. Enjoy!

Lychee Sensation - The Simplest Drink You Can Make

There are a number of recipes found in books and the internet on the many fold methods to mix and match for a nice alcoholic drink such as egg nogs, pina coladas, summer breeze, sotb, etc.. but this one is just one very easy and simple mini cup of sensation that everyone can make.. "Lychee Sensation" By using a dash of whisky neat and dropping in one or two peeled and stoned lychee. Thats it, usually canned lychee can be bought from everywhere stores and are most convenient.

To add both zest and zing, simply chill the whisky glass in the freezer for some time before pouring in the whisky and dropping in the lychee. Garnish with a red or green cherry and that makes a great addition to the list of cocktails you can make for family and friends.

Charcoal Layer Cake or Cheese Pandan Roll

Both are tasty.. The charcoal layer cake has 2 black layers sandwiched together with the layer of the green tea sponge in the middle. It is quite popular these days where pastries and cakes are baked using bamboo charcoal which is marketed as good for health. Known to have detoxifying properties, the bamboo charcoal are used to make bamboo charcoal breads, cakes and added to drinks. So it looks like having a dark color. On the other hand, this pandan swiss roll is just too delicious.. The filling is not just normal whip cream but a rich cheesy filling redolent of farm cow's milk as it is added with shreds of still visible fragrant cheddars. Yum Yum! Sold in pieces and it is a perfect taken with a cup of hot aromatic coffee in the morning.

Special Home Sauce Spaghetti and Zuzai Wantons

It takes great care to make this special sauce spaghetti using a number of special ingredients. But firstly, the Spaghetti has to be soaked before it is cooked in hot water bath for at least 15-20 minutes. The very fine texture of the spaghetti shall determine the outcome of a good meal or otherwise soggy or spaghetti that gets undercooked still. I used cream cheese, a number of herbs, cashew nut paste and sun dried tomatoes with shreds of an onion and cut sausage. The result is neither marinara nor carbonara but something rather spicy. Wantons on the other hand depends very much on the filling and this one is made using minced ham on mortar and mushrooms to add taste. Both are exciting weekend dinners!

Lamb Shank Stew with Home Made Bread

This is the most delicious ingredient for cooking lamb shank. With the already juicy fine texture of the lamb shank, this stew combines a number of herbs known only to the chef with sweet baby potatoes, carrots, onions and garlic. The outcome is a mouth watering experience when the meal is again complemented with fresh home made savory bread.

Personally, I love the careful cutlets of the lamb shank topped with a little bit of its very fine and redolent way of the herbal infusion as the black pepper creates the depth of taste along. The bread eaten with the meat and potatoes before the carrots and garlic add the adventure. This meal is also baked with strategy.
