A visit to Kek Lok Si

My gang and I went to Kek Lok Si to test up my baby toy. I am still a newbie in this photography world. This famous spot is well known with the colourful lighting scene during chinese new year. Those experts won't be missing the chance to catch some excellent shots at this wonderful spot! So, I also pura-pura to be expert with my D60 and tripod.. haha..

And hope everyone will have a ping ping an an, kai kai xin xin and prosperous year!

Pan Cakes

Finally have time to update my blog after these hectic and tiring days...

I supposed to blog this last weekend yet not enough times for me to do all the stuffs in just a 2-day weekend.

Deng deng deng deng.. Pan Cakes for last Saturday's breakfast.

Somehow i forget to take the photos step by step. :p

Ingredients:
These ingredients are enough to make 20 pieces of little pan cakes as above.

  • Flour 125g
  • Fine Sugar 25g
  • Butter 40g
  • 1 Egg
  • Fresh Milk 140g

How to make:

  1. Mix the milk and egg together.
  2. Next, mix well with the flour.
  3. Then, mix with melted butter. You can use a spoon to soften and melten the butter.
  4. Heat up the pan and put a little bit of oil.
  5. Then, use a big scoope to scope up the mixing and put it on the pan.
  6. Wait till the surface of the creamy dough pops up some bubbles, then you can turn it over.
  7. Wait till the pan cakes turn into light golden brown, put them on the plate and decorate it with your favourite fruits or nuts.
  8. You can put some honey or butter on it, depends on your taste.

Difficulty: 1/5

Actually, I wanted to make dollar pan cakes, which are small and in round shapes. But, my pan is not flat enough at the center although it is a flat frying pan!!!! Ended up with flower petal style pan cakes.. :D

And not forgeting, a promoter who is hired to promote the pan cakes.. *wink *wink :P
