Bread Pudding

This is the best bread pudding I've ever made thus far! Even Husband thinks so. It was so good I made it twice in the past weekend, and also I've realised how to bake it right. I baked it slightly longer the second time cos the middle was still wobbly, but I should have just left it at 35 minutes cos the custard was sort of cooking still after removing from the oven. I wanted to make Carousel's bread pudding recipe but seeing the amount of cream, I give up. I'd rather find a recipe that uses things that I can find in my fridge at any time.

Bread Pudding

1/2 loaf Gardenia white bread
3 eggs, beaten
2 cups milk
1/3 cup sugar
1 tbsp condensed milk
2 tbsp butter
Raisins and sliced almonds

Tear the bread into pieces and throw into an 8 inch pan together with raisins. In a pot, heat milk, condensed milk, sugar and butter and stir until all are melted together. Set aside to cool until it's warm to the touch. While stirring the milk mixture, pour in slowly the beaten eggs and mix well. Add this custard mixture into the baking pan and allow the bread to soak at least 15 minutes. In the mean time, preheat the oven to 170 degrees Celsius and bake for 35 minutes, no more than 40.


Our baby girl loves this too!

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...

Apam Balik

I love apam balik. The soft one, with lots of corn. So when @khairulaming posted this on his instagram, I bookmarked it. The recipe is not too much until you get sick of eating apam balik, but I do feel it needs some tweaks to get the pancake king version. But not bad for a first try. 2 cups flour 1/2 cup sugar 1 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp baking soda 2 tbsp melted butter 1 1/4 cups water 1 egg Additional butter for the pan I do feel it needs some salt, more sugar and I shouldn't have liberally made it so thick HAHA. The pan is important too, I kinda burnt some parts of the pancake. Got them bubbles!! This recipe made 2 large pancakes. Also, the filling needs to be sprinkled with sugar liberally (read: 3 tbsp or so), my first try wasn't enough. Pancake was soft even for the next few days after that (kept in the fridge then reheated in the microwave). Husband found it to be acceptable, but I was kinda not okay with it but ohwells. I can tweak it ...

Junior's Development

Nothing on food today. I wanna talk about Junior. He's growing so fast. In a few weeks' time, he'll turn 18 months. He's grown so much, so tall. Junior pretty much understands most of the things we say to him cos he knows when to shake his head if he doesn't want something. But he hasn't learnt to talk yet. I am kinda worried about that, but then Husband didn't talk till after two and that didn't stop him from being a debater. I'm trying to console myself by saying maybe he's a little late, that's all. Not like he has some deficiency or something. Junior keeps changing his preferences. Like now he likes panda bears (he loved Kungfu Panda on okto yesterday!), he doesn't want to solat but he aminkan doa . Things that aren't seasonal are his love for fruits, climbing, biting me (yes, it's been going on for the longest time), and the most sweetest thing, helping out with housework. He will pull the laundry basket out of our room a...
