Assalamualaikum..

Today, I want to share Pavlova simple recipe.

Ingredients:

4 egg whites

1 cup castor sugar

1 tspn lemon juice/ vinegar

2 tspns cornflour (cornstarch)

METHOD

1) Beat egg whites until soft peaks form in a bowl using electric mixer. I am using egg beater because I don't have electric mixer :)

2) Add sugar, sifted cornflour and lemon juice and beat until until the mixture is stiff and glossy

3) a)Cover baking tray with baking paper or aluminium foil OR

b)Grease baking tray and pour cornflour ( a lot, as I did )

4) Pile mixture onto tray/baking paper/al foil and leaving the center a bit hollow. I didn't manage to make a center hollowed anyway..hehe

5) Bake in at 130'C at 1 1/2 hour

6) Turn off the oven and leave pavlova to cool in oven with door ajar

7) Decorate pavlova with whipped cream or lemon filling as I did and fresh fruits :)

As for my first time home made Pavlova, I can say the result is very satisfying. Thanks to the recipe I googled before, I forgot the URL btw. The only thing is I should have put vanilla essence to reduce the eggy smell. Try yours and share with me your Pavlova :)

Much Love, IJLW

Seafood

5/26/2012 10:46:00 am | Labels: Food, Seafood

Assalamualaikum.. Halo there!!

I've been craving for seafood recently and we opt to Fish & Co, One Utama..

I've read it somewhere to compare F&C to MFM, hence I was here with Munuf. I do make a survey thru google regarding their menu and the price range is really affordable.

Since this is our first time been here, I would say the service is tip-top. I have my own principle, I won't go to any restaurant again if the service is poor. I'm the customer, I pay and I deserve a good service LIKE others. Normally, first-timer memang dilayan so-so tak macam regular customer. I don't know about u, but this happened to me.. Hence, Fish & Co is highly reccomended, they know it is your first time, and they know exactly what to do and what to say. Go there and u will know what I am talking about. If your experience is not what you're expecting in the first place, I'm sorry.
