Vanilla Ice Cream

2008-07-20T10:36:00.000-07:00

Yayyy!! everyday is ice cream day for us (esp. my hubby). Since my hubby is the biggest fan of vanilla flavour, I have to make 2 different ice cream flavours at the same day. Well...vanilla is a must for him. So, I tried my best to make different kind of vanilla ice cream. Then I found this recipe here, and it turned out so well and tasted like vanilla ice cream from our fave supermarket.

This one is so soft, creamy and egless (most of the vanilla ice recipes I've tried required eggs) and my hubby said this is the best home made vanilla ice & tasted better as the one from supermarket ^_^. So, it's really a keeper!

I made a bit change from the original recipe as I only have strawberry jam in my fridge, so I ommited the peach with the jam. And the taste is soo fresh & delicious!
I divided the batch into 2, one is pure vanilla flavour and the other one is with strawberry jam (just in case my hubby doesn't like it). Actually, I want to make the swirl effect on my ice but it didn't work that well *sighs* and the jam made the color look weird :-(.

Today is quite hot here, and the ice melt so fast (as you can see at the 2nd picture) and I had to hurry myself taking the shots of my ice cream *pheww* and at the end of the photo session, my husband took the ice and enjoyed it til the last spoon *LOL*

Ingredients:
2 cups half-and-half (I used light cream / kaffeesahne in germany)
1 cup whipping cream
1 cup minus 2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons peach preserves (I substituted it with strawberry jam)
1 vanilla bean, split and scraped

Directions:

Combine all ingredients (including the bean and its pulp) in a large saucepan and place over medium heat. Stirring occasionally and bring it into simmer or until you see bubble hit the surface.DO NOT LET IT BOIL!

Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly. Remove the hull of the vanilla bean, pour mixture into lidded container and refrigerate mixture overnight to mellow flavors and texture. (I refrigerated for about 5 hours only)

Prepare your ice cream maker and freeze the mixture inside until it reaches the soft consistency and the volume increase by 1/2 or 3/4 times. The remove the mixture into ice container and let it hard for about 1 hour.

Cacao Ice Cream

2008-07-18T09:14:00.000-07:00

Ow ow..someone is in ice cream fever now!!! Yup yup..I am!. I can't help it since it's not so complicated to make this delicious dessert. The other reason is that my hubby is the ice cream monster at home. He's really addicted to ice cream & not a day goes by without ice cream ^_^. So...you can tell that ice cream a must in our freezer. I found this recipe here, it's very simple and it's egless, that's what I like. The taste is great, but from the consistence I like my strawberry ice cream better, it's so creamy & softer compares to this one. I substituted some ingredients here based on what I have in my kitchen *im too lazy too go out today as the weather isn't that nice*, maybe that's the reason why the consistence isn't creamy as the other one. I guess I will try again next time with the right ingredients :-)
Here is the recipe:

Ingredients:( for 5 servings)

1/4 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
7 g Cocoa Powder
130 ml heavy cream(I used milk+butter)
65 ml light cream
4 ml vanilla extract

Directions:

1. Prepare a saucepan, then mix condensed milk and cacao powder. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly until mixture smooth & slighly thickened. Remove it from heat & let it cool.

2. Gradually add heavy cream, light cream & vanilla extract into the mixture. Then whisk until well blended. Refrigerate until cool

3. Prepare your ice cream maker, then add the mixture gradually and let it stand for 15-30 minutes or until u get the desired consistence.

Mocca Chiffon Cake

2008-06-15T07:10:00.000-07:00

Yippeeee!!!!!!! finally.... I did it!! I baked a chiffon cake. This is the 2nd trial after I ruined the 1st one. I was so impatient to remove the cake from the mold when it was still hot and it was such a nice "freefall" for the cake. That's what I got when I disobey the rules..hehe. But today, i finally got what i want..yuhuuu!!! I never thought that it was easy to make this cake and unmold it. What irritated me a bit was the amount of the eggs *eww...7 eggs...that's a bit too much*, but i never regret it at all after the 1st bite. So moist and once you started it..u will never be able to stop *it's happening to me & my husband* hihi. As you can see on the pictures..the texture is quite nice and the cake is quite tall (it's not shrink at all). No hesitation anymore to make the 3rd one *wink*.

Ayam Betutu (Roast Chicken in Banana Leaf)

2008-05-27T06:54:00.001-07:00

This ayam betutu is my husband fave food (mine too). After the long vacation, I finally go back to my kitchen. Yep..it's time to cook again. Ayam betutu comes originally from Bali. Actually, the original recipe required duck as the main ingredient, but we can also substitute it with chicken. This great spicy & tasty food will taste so much better when u wrap it with banana leaf *sighs..i miss the fragrance of those banana leaves*
Since it's quite difficult to find banana leaves here, i decided to wrap it using aluminium foil, the taste isn't that perfect as the original one, but still it tasted great. Thanks to my friend Pepy for sharing the recipe.
I never thought that it's so easy to cook this ayam betutu, what u need is the patience of waiting..hehe. :-)

5 bird's eye chilli
1 teaspoon shrimp paste
1 tablespoon corriander seeds
1,5 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon sugar
salt as you desired
aluminium foil for wrapping

Method:
- wash the chicken then wipe it dry, set aside. Pour lime/lemon juice all over the chicken.
- Mixed all B ingredients and chopped it well using food processor
- Rub the chicken outside with the mixture and then fill the center or the chicken with the remainder or vice versa.
- close the open chicken with skewer, then wrap it with alumunium foil.
- Let it stand for minimum 2 hours (the longer the better..I marinate it for about 2 days)
- prepare your pressure cooker, then steam the chicken for about 30-45 minutes (I use high pressure), let it cool.
