"French Fries Cutter 薯条刀"

最近才学会原来波浪形的薯条是用这种刀切成的。一直以来,我以为只有机器才能切出波浪形的薯条,而waffle格子薯片,我还以为是经过加工的。

Recently only I learned that crinkle fries are produce from this type wave cutter. All the while I thought only can be produce from machine. Never explore never know! I was assuming waffle fries is produced by batter thru mould.

Actual fact is they are from fresh potatoes.


"Borner V- Power Vegetable Slicer 蔬菜刨 "

常常刨菜时割到手指,最后决定把心一横,痛痛一次买个好的蔬菜刨,至少没那么容易再割到手指,也能耐个五年十年,哈哈!我是这么想的。

买了这玩意儿后,其实我觉得很兴奋,一直在找机会试用它。

在此参考我第一次用它来刨碎红萝卜。

I always cut my finger while slicing vegetable. Finally i decided to spend more money to get a more high tech slicer with higher safety feature. At least it can reduce my chance getting cut again and hopefully it can last for at least 5 or 10 years! Am I dreaming?

In fact I feel so excited after purchased this new toy...=)! I keep finding chances to utilize this new toy, yeah!

You may refer to my first trial to produce chopped carrot at here.

"Air Fried Meat Spring Roll气炸肉卷"

这是我的家传肉卷。年年农历新年大团圆时,这道菜肴百吃不厌,而且总是很所欢迎。我们是用肉碎、虾肉、蒜头及葱头加其他调味料做成。 还有我们的肉卷是有蒸过的。蒸过的肉卷,如用不完,还能冷冻,下次要吃时才解冻,炸过即可。来到北方后,发现他们的肉卷和我们做法不一样。北方的肉卷是用肉条而不是肉碎。

This is recipies is inherited from my grandmom.Each reunion lunch during lunar new year,we never miss this dish. It always got very hot demand. For this spring roll, we are using minced pork meat, minced shrimps,onion,shallot and others flavoring and spice to make it. Then it will steam first before we fried it.The remaining stream roll can be keep in freezer for next time consumption.That's why we normally make quite a huge batches each time.When I move to the northern region, I realized that their fried spring roll is using meat strip rather than minced meat.The method is diferrent.







材料:
碎肉                  -500g 
碎虾仁             -150g
红萝卜       -1条(小或中形随个人喜好)(切碎)

蛋白                  -1 粒( 大粒的)

适量盐,味精调味


做法:
1。 将碎肉,碎虾仁 ,红萝卜碎,蒜头及红葱头碎, 搅拌均匀。
2。 放入蛋白,苏打饼碎搅拌均匀。
3。 接着才放入所有的调味粉搅拌均匀,备用。
4。 在一个大菜板(砧板)打开豆皮,将碎肉馅料用汤匙舀在豆皮上,排
        成长型,再卷起豆皮,只要一层豆皮包到馅料就可。然后,用小刀沿
        着肉卷边刮一下切破豆皮就可以了。
5。 下一步是把肉卷放在铺了香蕉叶的蒸盘上。记得豆皮切口要向下。
6。 重复相同步奏把所有馅料包好。
7。 排满肉卷的蒸盘可以先下锅蒸,大概蒸10分钟让肉卷熟即可。
8。 记得要待冷后才能拿来炸,炸至黄金色即可。
9。 如没炸完,可将蒸好的肉卷冷冻,下次在炸。

注:炸肉卷配Ayamas辣椒酱是最好吃的了。

"家常薄饼Homemade Popiah(Vegetable Spring Roll)"

这是我们家常吃的薄饼。我经常(一两个星期一次)会煮这道菜肴当晚餐。我曾经几次试过自己做薄饼皮,但是老公总是说我做的皮比较厚,我最后放弃再花时间尝试把皮做好,直接在巴刹买就算了。做薄饼皮的过程可不间单呢!费时又费力。回想小时候,我家每次都是自己做薄饼皮的,因为当时很难买到现成的。不过都每人投诉皮厚,大慨是没机会做比较吧!现在好命了,比较会选择,哈哈!至于小金杯,有时我会买现成的,有时就自己做。现成的其实不便宜,一个如没记错30仙。目前为止我还在寻找最满意的小金杯食谱!现实中,做小金杯的功夫也不输于薄饼皮,都是费时又费力!唯一不同的是小金杯耐收,只要收在密罐里就能耐整个月,下次还能吃。但是薄饼皮就不能。我没试过把薄饼皮冷冻,可能可以这样收藏,谁知呢?试过才知道。

This is the Popiah that we always have it at home. I will prepare this as our dinner once each weekly or bi-weekly. For popiah skin, I did try to make it few times but hubby complaint it is thicker than ready bought from wet market. I give up to continue trying it as the effort putting on this experiment not worth. As for the popiah cup, sometimes I will buy the ready make cup from wet market but it is very expensive. If not mistaken, it cost是 30 cents per cup. I still hunting for the best recipes for this popiah cup. Those in the picture still not my satified popiah cup. By the way, the effort to fry this cups are not less that the popish skin, that's the reason it is quite expensive. The only different is popish cup can keep in air-tight container for next round consumption but popiah skin can not. Never try to freeze the popiah skin, may be it worked, who know!!

"Philip Air Fryer 气炸炉"




Bought this Fryer last year before maternity confinement in preparation to eat healthy during confinement period. But end up only used it after confinement as I dare not let my confinement aunty touch it. After she leave only I start to utilize it.
Bought it at Harvey Norman for about RM1199 with 2 years warranty and aditional RM 256 for another 3 years warranty. Being too kia su to have 5 years warranty on it. I have good experience with Harvey Norman on their warranty. Last few years, our Pioneer home theater DVD player not able to play majority of the CD, we sent it back to Harvey Norman and they did help us to sent for repair and the repair fee is under them as it is still under waranty.
Back to the topic. Generally this fryer is good for those ready food such as french fry, nutget, hash brown etc. In terms of raw food, homemade french fries, fried fish, and alot more still under experiment. Roasting nut also no problem. However, it do not give good result on wet batter, even wantan skin also I still can't get the good outcome. Need more experiments.

当初是为了在做月期间吃得健康而买下了这粒气炸炉。数数也有一年多了。结果做月期间完全没吃煎炸食物,也不敢让做月姨用它。她离开后 我才真正开始用它。

我是在Harvey Norman 用了1199令吉(2 年保证)加256令吉(3 年加保)买下。怕输的我要了5年保证,至少坏了也分文不须要出。之前曾在Harvey Norman 买Pioneer音响系统,它的DVD机坏了,拿回去叫他们修
,因还在保证期内,所以都没出到分文。因此对他们有信心。
言归正题,整体来说,这气炸炉炸现成冻食很有用。例如,薯条薯饼、nutget等。至于生的食物,好像自制薯条,煎鱼等等,我还在试验中。 烘坚果花生之类肯定没问题。但是,它不能炸湿面糊之类的食谱。就连云吞皮,我都还不曾炸出好成果,还要继续实验。







Tips:
It is recomended to use spray oil to lightly coat the food before air fried it.  I made a homemade oil spray rather then buying it from supermarket. The reason is its consumption very low and those ready in supermarket is quite a big tin. You may refer to page Homemade Oil Spray 自制油喷 to try self made oil spray .

建议大家用油喷来炸食物,只要喷一喷食物表层就可。因为用得少,买现成大瓶装不实际,结果我自制了个油喷,你可参考Homemade Oil Spray 自制油喷自己试试看!

“Roti Jala( Net Crepes)”












Ingredients for Roti Jala ( To produce 20 Roti Jala):


2 cups of all purpose flour
2 eggs
3/4 cups of thick coconut milk
1 1/4 cups of skim milk
1 tsp of salt
1 tsp of tumeric powder
water (depend on the batter, if it can't flow thru the roti jala cup, add 1-2 tbsp each time)

Tools:
Roti Jala cup
Flat pan ( I used 30cm diameter iron flat pan which only cost me RM10)




Methods:
1.  Fold all ingredient in a mixing bowl and mix well and smooth.
2.  Then test the batter with the Roti Jala cup to check whether it can flow
     thru the hole or not. If the batter too thick, then add abit water and mix 
     thru until the batter can flow thru the cup easily.
3.  Heat the pan over low heat, then pour abit oil on top of the pan, then use  
     kitchen paper towel to wipe it on the entire pan.
4.  Place a small plate under the standing roti jala cup and scoop the batter
     into the roti jala cup until ~90% full. I'm using a measuring cup to pour the
     batter into the roti jala cup as I found this method is the easiest and faster 
     way to do the job.
5.  Transfer the small plate with the cup fill with batter to the pan and let the
     batter flow on the pan. My method to make the pattern is from outer
     circle slowly go into innest circle, then make small circle along the pan to
     overlap the previous big circle. I learn this from my office's cafe cook
     while waiting for my order last time.
6.  When the roti jala started to turn to pale yellow, fold half of it and transfer
     entire roti into the center of the pan. Within few seconds, turn this roti to
     another side for another few seconds and fold it into quarter to transfer
     out from pan to a plate.
7.  You may fold into whatever shape you prefer and it is ready to serve.

“Kitty 猫酥饼 Hello Kitty Cookies”

This hello kitty cookies were made for my elder girl school last day party. She prefer me to make cookies this round instead of chocolate chip cup cake. I simply search a recipe from my cook book which look ok for this hello kitty cutter and try on it. First time using this recipe and it turn out very nice. The cookies very soft even though no eggs was added. I though it will be harder as it used rice flour and corn flour. Suprisingly it turn out so soft and tasted really good.  When using this hello kitty cutter, sometimes the ribbon will fall out when I turn the cookies out from the cutter. I need to make sure the cutter really coat by the flour on the ribbon part before I stamp it on the dough.

这hello kitty 小饼是为了我大女儿幼稚园最后一天庆祝会而做的。这次她选择要带小饼,而不是平时要的巧克力粒小蛋糕杯。我随意在我买的食谱找了个看似适合这类印模的饼干食谱试试,没想到成品很好吃,又好看可爱,真是不废之劳。这食谱没用鸡蛋,但却很松脆爽口,值得一试!我起初以为它会较硬,因为它用了粘米粉和黍粉。谁知出来的成品却刚好相反。用这hello kitty 印模时,它的缎带也有几次断掉。我每次都要确定它沾上少许面粉,才能印在面团上。







Ingredients:

250g butter
90g icing sugar
180g all purpose flour( i used superfine flour instead)
100g rice flour
30g corn starch
100g ground almond

Methods:
1. Beat the butter with the icing sugar until using high speed it turn pale
    yellow and smooth.
2. Fold in the rest of the ingredients until well mixed using stir speed. The
    dough are very soft.
3. Transfer the dough to the flat surface and roll it out about 2mm thick.
4. Then stamp the cutter and make sure it come out with
    the perfect shape as desired. Line them on the greased tray.
5. Pump the kitty eyes with the decorating pen filled with the chocolate or 
    nutalle to make to kitty look more attractive.
5. Bake in the preheat oven for 20-25 mins or turn slightly golden at 150
    degree celcius.
6. Leave it cool and keep in the air-tight container.

Tips:
The challenge part on this cookies is the stamp out the flawless hello kitty.
1. Prepare a bowl with 2-3 tbsp of flour. Remember to dip the cutter
    especially the face part on the flour each time before used. Do shake out
    the excessive flour before stamp it to the  dough.
2. Use a large solid plastic bag to cover your flat surface before roll the
    dough. Then use a wrapping cling to cover the dough and roll on to of it.
    This give 2 steps give you 2 benefits. It help to reduce cleaning time on the
    table surface and also the roller. Another benefit is with the wrapping cling
    on top of the dough, it make your rolled surface smoother compare to
    without it and the dough do not stick on the roller.
3. Use the plastic knife to transfer the cut kitty to the baking tray.
4. You can replace ground almond with other ground nut,depend on your 
    preference.
