MALAYSIA'S FIRST EVER BLOGGER MASTERCHEF

received a phone call on monday around 2.30pm. after a short conversation, run in my mind...is it for real or somebody is trying to play a joke on me? then i tried to get some info from what the caller have told me...all seems true, ahhhh.............. then only i remembered that mama jijah (my FB friend) already ''linked''   me some info about it...it's about last week i thought.........so what is the matter about?? who is the caller??....well, i bet u all already knew it, coz u all can read it from the ''post title''....daaaaa...hehehehehe

the caller is miss fara, from NUFFNANG MALAYSIA, she invited me to enter the contest (as stated as above), i'm still thinked about it till then on tuesday she call me up again, asking and reminded me also that all application should be submit by this THURSDAY..(alamakkkk!!) & invited me again to enter the contest.

my girls already excited & really want me to participate, then, i ''WhatsApp'' dear hubby ..just text  ''Skype please'', then i waited..waited, waited, waited till i fall  zzzzzzzzz...., the next day  by 2pm only i received the answer..(gosh ...sooooo long to get an answer eh)

not only i received an answer  but 4 answers sekaligus!!(texting off course!!)

the fact is me & hubby not in the same zone......anyway he texting saying that i should proceed....bla bla bla bla..& bla bla......( i still not so sure should i participate or not...)..but then i said to myself...just give a try..who knew? as 'pepatah said..tuah ayam nampak di kaki, tuah orang siapa yang tahu'  isn't it?? my dear sweet friends (u know who u are lerr) also encourage me to go!!! yeaaa chaiyok!! chaiyokk!!

again i  go through the 'must do thing' to enter the contest.....one of it is....

''tell us why are you deserve the title by...bla bla bla bla bla......................................''

(pouting)...why eh?? why eh?? ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ it a long pause actually ....longer then this dot dot dot line!!!!

my answer is...(i try my very best ok)

i only started as a blogger may 2011, my follower is only 100 plus, so im really sure i'm not a ''popular'' blogger among the bloggest. but seems that NUFFNANG is not looking for the popular blogger..they are looking for the BLOGGER MASTERCHEF...so  i think i deserved it...

well, i'm a homemaker that love to cooks & definitely love love love to eat!!!!

(tiada apa pun untuk dipelikkan...) hehehehe

ok the recipe that i want to shared is a caramel cake ...this is a 'BOOM' recipe back then in (over a year) FB KONGSI RESIPI by PN MUNIRA...and it's still a 'BOOM' till now (masuk TV3 derrr). and as required by NUFFNANG that the recipe must be original creation or a recreation of a famous recipe..so....

I recreated a new version of caramel cake..which is most of us (especially me, hubby & my kids) like to have a THICK smooth sweet pudding caramel.

Refer this post for the recipe...:))


again update dr post yg di atas

sy telah menerima e mail utk semi final pd 8/10/11...dgn berat hati terpaksa say ''no'' to the contest..:))
nway to all , tqVM pada semua frens for yr support..:)) to my dear hubby & fmly..tq for yr understanding...love always from me..:))

and to all jgn lupa support our MALAYSIA'S masterchef !!!!

CAKE CARAMEL - new version of pudding caramel

i recreated a smooth sweet & THICK layer of caramel pudding just to satisfied my own definition of dessert world...(in my own tummy world to be exact)!! ihikss

and i still keep the same recipe for the cake mixture  (slightly changes)

there are 4 parts in this recipe.

first is the caramel sugar, then the pudding, followed by the cake mix &  finally the meringue

let check out the ingredients & step by step pic as below

PART 1 - the caramel

2 tbsp of sugar

add sugar to the 8 x 3 baking tin

direct heat from the stove

melt sugar till it turn to brown

(keep stove fire medium)

- put aside

PART 2 - the pudding

 ingredients

3 yolks - (keep the white egg)
2 eggs
1 cup of condensed milk
1 cup of evaporated milk
1 tsp vanilla essence

methods

combine all & hand whisk

due to cond. milk used , i skipped the castor sugar:))

then strained the mixture into sugar caramel

ignore the ''cracking'' sound that occur when pouring the mixture
it's happen due to the ''clashing'' hot & cold temperature.

PART 3 - cake mixture

ingredients
3 yolks - keep the white
135ml water
3 tbsp cooking oil
1/4 castor sugar
1 1/4 cup flour
1 tsp baking powder
*** sift together baking powder & flour

methods
combine & hand whisk all the ingredients except the sifted flour & baking powder
then gradually  add flour & continue whisk till the mixture well combined.

PART 4 - the meringues


6  white eggs
1/3 cup of castor sugar
1 tsp cream of tar tar

methods
pic 1 to 3
beat egg white till foam
then gradually add in castor sugar , continue beating eggs
add in cream of tar tar , beat the mixture till it turn to the stiffed foam (refer pic below)

**** make sure all your utensils are dry
and yolk are well separately.

pic 4 to 6
then combine meringue with the cake mixture - folded method
at this point u can add what ever flavour as u wish

when the mixture is well combine u can separate them to 2 (or more)
and add in colour as u wish.

meanwhile switch on oven to 170'c

slowly scoop the mixture & pour it to the pudding mixture. the meringue mixture will be floating on the pudding mixture. keep on scooping & pouring the mixture till it finished.

using steam bath / bain marie method, put baking tin with the cake mixture onto the larger baking tin. 

pour hot water into the external baking tin.
(use the very  bottom rack in your oven.)

bake for 45 mins to 55 mins (depends on your oven) - i baked it till 1 hour 20 mins with 160'c...

pic no 2

caramel cake with square baking tin 7 x 7..

really not ''INTO'' it coz the caramel pudding come out not as thick as i wished....so i prefer the round type baking tin instead of square type.
