Father's Day Dishes - Mixed Cuisines

Nothing fanciful though, just a few simple home-cooked dishes for dh to celebrate Father's Day with the children at home. We had a quick dinner together as dh has to work on that evening.

A very Happy Father's Day to my dear hubby.

For the western dishes, we had Chicken Chop in Mushroom Sauce and Baked Potatoes...





For the Chiniese Cuisines, here are the dishes:-

Fruit Cake Loaf & Chocolate Chips Butter Cake

This was baked for my fil and dh as both dislike cakes with cream.

Hokkaido Milky Bread

Bibimbap

Bibimbap is a popular Korean dish.Bibimbap is served as a bowl of warm white rice topped with sauteed and seasoned vegetables, beef (or any meat), a fried egg (sunny side up), and gochujang (korean chilli pepper paste). The ingredients are stirred together thoroughly just before eating. It is served in a heated stone bowl.

A korean friend of mine has given me a bottle of gochujang (korean chilli paste) and some of her home-made kimchi that I decided to cook BiBimBap for our lunch this afternoon. This is a simple meal and yet it is so tasty! I love it!! Yummy!

Mother's Day Cakes Year 2007

For this year mother's day, my intention is to bake 2 cakes, one for my mil and one for my mum. Very unlucky, my oven broke down on friday night which I am supposed to make 3 spongecakes. In the end I managed to bake only one sponge cake (borrowed Lee Lee's oven) as I have almost completed mixing my spongecake batter.

I have to do w/o baking and did those non-bake cakes instead.

This is for my mum.







more non-baked ones for some parties...






This was the only spongecake that I baked using Lee Lee's Oven. Thanks Lee.

I made a Strawberry Shortcake for my mil.

No baking at the moment....

Arrghh!!!!!!! oven is down, need to get a replacement before I can bake anything. BORED BORED!!! esp is holiday now and the kids, I mean my own kids and bil/sils' children are expecting some bakes from me this holiday. The Kids are asking what am I baking for them??? I told them ve to wait till I get a new oven. They're sad, no bakes from me till then! Sorry kids! Will bake more to compensate OK!

Roti Jala & Chwee-Kueh

Thanks Jam, a forum pal for sharing her roti jala recipe. It's Yummy! Made some for yesterday lunch and cooked some chicken curry to go with it. Didn't do it very nicely tho..must practice more to get the roti jala nicely done.





My niece requested for some chwee kueh and i made some for her. Didn't have the chwee kueh moulds so i do w/o it.. using disposable aluminium tart tins.

Fruity & Chocolate Cuppies

With left over fruits from the bigger cake... I made them into cuppies!.... bottom is layed with vanilla sponge cubes, scooped some "Fruiche (Mix Berry)" - a fruit dessert base which i bought from Meidya supermart and topped with cut fruits





These were made for younger ds who is a chocolate lover. Chocolate sponge cubes as the base, topped with some melted chocolate and decorate as you wish. He offered to help me with the decoration.

Baked a Fruity Cake for my Bro's B'day!

Hey Bro! Happy B'day To U! Not getting old anymore... better get a GF soon or else mum will continue to nag hahaha..

This fruity cake and dishes were baked and prepared for my bro, Samuel to celebrate his b'day on 28th April, tho his actual b'date is on 3rd May.

Sponge Cupcakes

I am gonna say it again eventho I have repeatedly said it so many times.. Lee Lee's spongecake recipe is definitely a keeper! Finally, I attempted the spongecake in cups hehe.. the cakes didn't have the chance to keep till the next day, all were gone within an hour!

Baked Tapioca Kueh

Baked some Tapioca Kuehs as I had some balance grated tapioca still sitting in my freezer. Not too sweet and is very nice.



These two dishes were prepared for our dinner sometimes back.. Ds pestered me to cook for them Sweet and Sour Pork and I obliged. I also used some hae-bee-hiam to fry the eggplants.
