Banana Sour Cream Cake

I have 3 bananas and sour cream that are about to go bad/expire, so I went to Google sour cream banana cake, and came across this! So there IS a recipe for sour cream banana cake haha!


Made some adjustments, but sadly I should've increased the amount of sugar instead. And bananas too if I have them. Sadly the banana taste wasn't much, but the cake is really moist! Especially after you leave it after a day. Soft, moist and the taste of banana and butter becomes more distinct!


Ingredients

  • 180g salted butter (honestly I don't know how much I used but it's sort of more than half a pack of 250g butter)
  • 3/4 cup caster sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 1/4 cups cake flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp bicarbonate soda
  • 250 light sour cream
  • 3 mashed bananas
  • Generous doze of chocolate chips!

Mix everything! Then bake using a 10 inch round pan, 180°C for 40 minutes. Recipe called for 60 minutes but since the cake was already done and oh so sweet smelling, I took it out impatiently! Maybe for the next try, I shall use six medium bananas and and extra 1/2 cup sugar.

Daiso Ramekins

Finally finally went to Daiso!! Wanted to go there for ages already! The first thing I came in, went to the cooking section. Found my ramekins! But they're not white. Oh wells. Can't be choosy for $2 ramekins! There were white ones, but super small white ramekins. And pie tarts too! Oooh so tempting! But I don't know when I'll make tarts hurhur. Actually I'm still thinking what I should bake using these ramekins. I remember having one of those "I wish I had ramekins right now" moments but I can't remember when. Maybe when I was making lava cake . Daiso is evil. It's so cheap you just feel like coming back again! Oh and did I mention there's a $2 weighing scale?! Measures up to a kilo but that's quite alright for baking isn't it! I mean, $2!! Dirt cheap lah. Not sure about the accuracy though. Didn't do much cleaning last weekend, very much spent lazing around at home just like what weekends should be like. I love being at ho...

Stir Fried Udon

My baby loves this! Recipe adapted from here . 1 onion, sliced 3 cloves garlic, minced 2 packets udon noodles 1 carrot, julienned  250g mushrooms 2 chicken fillet, sliced 2 stalks spring onions 3 tbsp dark soy sauce 2 tbsp oyster sauce 1 tbsp sushi vinegar (replacement for mirin) 2 tsp brown sugar 1 tsp artificial vinegar Recipe doesn't call for onion and garlic but those are pretty much base ingredients for stir fries so might as well. Made this for quick lunch for the kids since they were home alone. 

Chicken Rice (just the rice)

Need to jot this down! I have an earlier recipe for Hainanese Chicken Rice but this version is without proper chicken stock hence it's fuss free. Chicken Rice (just the rice) Skins from several boneless chicken thighs 2 tbsp sesame oil 1 lemongrass, bruised 1 onion, sliced 8 garlic cloves, pounded 2 inches ginger, pounded 2 cups rice, washed 3 cups water + 2 cubes chicken stock 1/2 tsp salt 5 knots of pandan leaves Fry the chicken skin until slightly crispy and the oils ooze out, together with the sesame oil. Add in the lemongrass and onions and fry until golden. Add in garlic and ginger. Add in rice and fry for a few minutes before adding the chicken stock water, salt and pandan leaves. Let it come to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer and let it cook for about 15 minutes. I used 4 cups water instead and it was kinda soggy so I'm guessing 3 cups should be sufficient. Also, cooking the rice in a pot is way easier than having to transfer into a rice cooker. Chili for Chicken R...
