Martabak Manis (Indo Thick Pancake)
Do you know our Singapore Min Jiang Kueh? Or what the Malaysian called, Apam Balik? This is something similar. Compared to ours (Sg and Msia), theirs are much thicker, much more filling, and much larger in size! It’s Indonesian-style. They call it, Martabak Manis. You should totally try it out. If you have had been to Indonesia, I’m sure you have tried this. But if you have yet to, do not fair! Make yourself one! They are so easy to make. Instead of just peanuts and sugar, they used a mixture of butter, chocolate, chopped peanuts and cheddar cheese. ‘Keju’ is what they named their cheese. I just like the word ‘Keju, keju’, so cute.
Very Berry Crumble Cake
I love crumble cake. And this is so berry-licious! Very Berry Crumble Cake. The fact that it is whole meal, it is awesome! Look at those baked berries! You can use a mixture of different berries, I used some strawberries, blackberries and raspberries.
Healthier Egg Mayo Sandwich
Just classic Egg Mayo Sandwich….But slightly healthier. Cut back some of the calories and saturated fats. Yet, still flavorful and creamy. Switch half yogurt instead of mayonnaise. To make it even healthier, you also may omit egg yolks. However, I am not going to omit it as I love the rich flavor
Fruit Punch with Jelly| Summer Party Series
This is a easy refreshing drink that is great for Summer Party. It looks good if you have a glass jug pitcher. With your choice of your favorite carbonated drink (eg. Sprite or Club Soda etc), the fruits really bring out the fruity revitalizing of the whole drink and make it pleasantly satisfying. You can use a variety of fresh fruits you want. I used strawberries, blueberries, grapes, and mangos. It was really delicious! I like to make it extra special and adding some jelly topping to each cup and garnish them with mint leaves. Yummy!
