Only made snack box bento today as we were a bit busy moving the old sofa downstairs aka throwing it away.

It was only 4 pieces of bakwan (aka bala-bala aka ote-ote), apples, mandarine and 2 pieces of chocolate bar.

Recipe for the bakwan I got from Herti Kitchen Gallery. I really like her gallery. Lots of authentic Indonesian dishes to drool over. One of my favorite sources. πŸ™‚

1 egg
50 gr flour
25 gr rice flour
4 shallots, minced
2 garlic, minced
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp chicken stock cube (I didn’t use it)
75 ml air
100 gr shrimp, roughly chopped (didn’t use it…alias ga punya πŸ˜› )
200 gr vegetables (shredded carrots and cabbage, taoge)

– Mix all ingredients vigorously.
– Deep fry until golden brown.
– Serve warm with saus sambal or cabe rawit

Melting Chocolate Puddings

I saw one program about cooking in BBC UK some weeks ago about this kind of pudding. I wrote down only the ingredients so of course when I wanted to make it I don’t know anymore what am I suppose to do with all the ingredients :p so I googled it but still couldn’t find the same recipe. But instead I found this recipe which was also on BBC UK.

Tried it and…hmm the result was quite nice though I found it was too dense sweet for my taste bud. Will reduce the amount of sugar another time.

Here is the copy of the recipe

Ingredients;

– 150g self-raising flour (used 200gr because didn’t use ground almond)
– 4 tbsp cocoa powder
– 50gr ground almonds (didn’t use this because didn’t have it πŸ˜› )
– 100g dark chocolate , roughly chopped
– 200gr caster sugar
– 175ml milk
– 50g butter , melted
– 1 egg

Sauce

– 150g dark muscovado sugar (sort of brown sugar)
– 3 tbsp cocoa powder
– 300 ml boiling water

– To make the chocolate sponge pudding, heat the oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Mix the flour, cocoa powder, ground almonds, chocolate and sugar together. Then stir the milk, butter and egg together and mix into the dry ingredients. Spoon into 6 individual ramekins or 1 big ovenproof dishes.
– To make the sauce, mix the sugar and cocoa powder and gradually stir in 300ml boiling water. Spoon this over the sponge mixture.
– Bake the puddings for 20 minutes. Lower the oven temperature to 170C/fan 150C/gas 3 and cook for a further 10 minutes until the sponge feels firm to the touch
– the sauce will be lurking underneath. Serve straight from the oven with cream.

– spring onion
– wantan skins fried
– emping
– 2 boiled eggs
– krupuk rambak (enak juga pake ginian πŸ™‚ ) –> this is krupuk made of cow’s or pork’s skin

– Boil chicken leg in 3 litres of water along with smashed garlic, salt, pepper and spring onions until the chicken is done
– Take 2 litres of chicken broth anf boil this with the rice to make porridge
– Add salam leaves to the rice
– Stir now and then until the desired consistency (approx 1 hour)
