Bake With Clumsypanda

I received a call from my sister yesterday afternoon telling me that my niece would like to eat Egg Tart. So, being a nice auntie, I decided to bake for her.

I grabbed the ingredients to make egg tart from Guten Braun Ent on my way back from work and started to bake once I reached home.

It’s not difficult to bake egg tart but, somehow rather I can’t seems to understand why the egg always sinked after few hours I took out from the oven. Sigh!

I followed the recipe from Amy Beh as I found her recipe was easy to follow- Short and Direct.

210g Plain Flour and 1tsp milk powder

30g Icing Sugar

130g cold butter

1/2 Egg Yolk

Blend all things together

Dough- Leave aside for 30 minutes

Pastry

Prebaked before pouring in the *custard mixture

Line up in baking tray. Baked for 20 minutes at 180 C

Wait..

Tadah..

Nice?

The below ingredients was use to prepare the custard mixture.

120g Castor Sugar

250ml Hot Water

1 3/4 tbsp Milk Powder

1/8 tsp salt

1 tsp Vinegar

1/2 tsp Vanilla Essence

3 eggs

Method:-

Dissolve sugar in hot water and stir in milk powder, vinegar and salt. Leave aside to cool, then add vanilla essence. Break egg into a bowl. Stire lightly. Pour the cold milk mixture into the egg and strain.

Phew…Luckily it turned out well after 3 hours of baking. Patricia? Is that the time you use to bake also huh? Ha ha..

Anyway, compare with my egg tart, the below Carrot Cake from Patricia’s Kitchen look much nicer.. Agreed?

I am still learning on how to make the cream so that maybe one day I am able to bake a real cake which is comparable with the cake shop. Ha ha..

Carrot Cake

Good.

What do you expect? RM14.50 one hour/room for a karaoke session.

So dirt cheap, and so damn lousy.. But, at least better than nothing la..

At least I found a place to:-

1) de stress myself if I am under work stress

2) sing like nobody business as the singer besides … is singing like nobody business also

3) Shout/Scold like nobody business using microphone, maximum volumn (hopefully someone from company heard it and don’t know where the voice is from.. Ha ha..)

as the Pub cum Snooker/Pool cum Karaoke Centre just located less than 3 minutes walk from my office. Duh!!!!

Our innitial planned was to go there had some drink and chit chat while the guys go for snooker session. But, Alice and I decided to go for Karaoke. Williams then decided to follow us and Tan join in later. So, only left Kong & David (Alice’s Husband) played snooker.

Once we reached the so called Karaoke room, which is located behind the pub, we had a shock to discover, the chair was so not comfortable, the sound system was so bad and loud, the song was limited, and we can clearly hear the singer in other room sing soooo damn loud…

Anyway, we do enjoy ourselves..
