Anyone wants Scramble Egg?

I was back from Shanghai this summer holiday.
Kinda cool trip to go there and explore lots of food and nice place.
My daddy really can EAT. He seems like craving for delicate all over Shanghai since he started working in there few years ago.
The best thing was , i can go over there every holiday. Hoping that my father could work in Paris as that was the place i really want to go, a food Paradise??[but...impossible]

As this is the eggs' week, I have chosen a delicate-Scramble EGG, which i have it in Singapore Changi Airport.




The restaurant is called TCC. Seems like I'm going there frequently. Their cakes are so attractive to me, I had  this-" Devil Chocolate" in the midnight about two in the morning. Oh mine, That's the reason I failed to lose my weight. I'm willing it for the sake of this cake.Haha . I love chocolate so so so much!!!



I had my breakfast again in TCC when i was back from china.I ordered something i really cant remember the name, is a kind of puff with asparagus.

Mouth watering breakfast , isnt't it~ 
VAN luv to say " mouth watering"

I shall share my trip and food in Shanghai later on.

CHINESE EGG TART蛋挞


Am i really crazy for egg tarts?? I have been making this for a few weeks!!
This recipe is given by my mummy~ Is kind a different from the previous portuguese egg tart i made, same do the name of tart~




RECIPE







INGREDIENTS A (THE TARTS):
skin a:
150g plain flour, sifted
20g custard powder , sifted
30g icing sugar, sifted
60g shortening
2-3 tbsp water
SKIN B:
90g plain flour, sifted
60g shortening
INGREDIENTS B (THE EGG FILLING):
3 eggs, beaten
120g of sugar add in
250ml hot water, sifted and cooled
1 tsp vanilla, 1 tsp white vinegar
little yellow colouring
METHOD:
Skin A: Mix and knead until smooth.Divide into 15 parts.
B: Mix and divide into 15 parts.
Wrap B with A. Roll into a long shape, roll up tightly like swiss roll. Roll into a round piece and line onto the egg tart mould.
Preheat oven to 180degree.
Mix and strain filling. Fill the dough with the egg mixture (about 80% full).
Bake the Portuguese Egg Tarts at 180 degree for about 15-20 minutes or until the filling is set.

something to remind, when rolling the skin, don't roll until too thin, prevent skin B from coming out.
Remove any of the tart from the oven when its filling is set to prevent the filling from puffing up as we are not making portuguese egg tarts=)

Simply Egg Pudding


Finish making your egg tarts and nothing to do with the remain egg filling??
 I got this idea of making it into a simply egg pudding when i was at the age of eleven, haha(Ops, the age of hunting for junk food). I bought this same egg pudding in  ShenZhen, China.
Seriously, I prefer eating the filling more that the outer pie tart.
 Now I'm making it for the first time and it taste same as I bought in China!!
 Good dessert for those prefer eating portuguese egg filing, haha.






RECIPE





(make about 10)

INGREDIENTS 
4 egg yolks
1/3 cup of sugar (or slightly less if you don’t like your Portuguese egg tarts too sweet)
1/3 cup of heavy whipping cream
1/3 cup of milk
3 drops of vanilla extract
METHOD:
Use an electronic hand beater to blend Ingredients B. Beat for about 3 minutes and strain the filling through a strainer. Set aside.
Preheat oven to 400 F. 
Fill the egg mixture about 80% full.
Bake them at 400F for about 15-20 minutes or until the filling turn brown.

Simply Frying Eggs

The very first thing about eggs and the first dishes that we learnt when we are a kid would be the FRYING EGGSSSS~~
Frying Eggs can be present in two ways: served sunny side up (not turned) or over (turned).




We shall let our new generation experience the joy of cooking~
Let us start from the very beginning.


Having six years of frying an egg,what I going to show now is the way to cook a really tradition Chinese style frying eggs.Haha

All u need is very fresh eggs to ensure good appearance and good taste.A non stick pan guaranteed a successful frying eggs.







First, pour some oil in the wok. Make sure the oil was heated before u pour in the egg. Remember ONE in a time.Turn the egg with spatula.Fried eggs should have intact yolks and tender white.






I've been trying the Julia Child's poaching egg yesterday. My uncle who lives in California , bought me Julia Child's recipe book as a b'day present,how touching it was.

Honestly, i had eaten about 6 failed poaching eggs.I tried and tried and tried......
YUCKS, i'm fainted with full stomach of eggs last night.
I believed that isn't tough to me.
