👩‍🍳Here I cooked tapioca pearl in coconut milk with corn kernels, small potatoes, banana and added sugar and purple yam extract to have a purple colour as a sweet tooth for today. It’s been a while seen I prepared this sweetened tapioca pearl. Tapioca or tapioca starch is an almost tasteless starch that is made from the processed and dried cassava root. … Tapioca can be used as an ingredient in cooking, similar to potato or corn starch or sago. As we all know, Tapioca pearls are made from the starch of manioc, the roots of a shrub that was originally native to South or Central America. The raw pearls must be cooked before consumption. In about 30 minutes, they will take on a clear, jelly-like consistency. Tapioca pearls are made from the starch of manioc, the roots of a shrub that was originally native to South or Central America.

NO-BAKE CHEESECAKE with INCABERRIES TOPPING

October 30, 2020October 31, 2020 Dolly

You can also conjure up a super delicious cheesecake without an oven I‘ll show you how easy it is. Cake without baking, in my opinion, they are not so good for baking because they are very badly damaged in the oven due to high water content. Never mind what are the so-called „no bake“ cakes for! No-bake cakes, as the English name suggests are not baked. They usually have a rather thin base and refreshing cream spread over it, which then sets by cooling it in refrigerator. Often, the no-bake cakes can be prepared really quickly and personally, I particularly like the fact that you save yourself baking and looking back in the oven. Today I conjured up a no-bake cheesecake with very fresh Incaberries topping. The biscuit base is wonderfully crispy, without sugar added in it.

SEAFOODS AND VEGETABLES

A TYPICAL MEAL

November 10, 2014November 10, 2014 Dolly

Today’s lunch I cooked mackerel sinigang with zucchini (Mackerel in sour soup with Courgettes).

Filipino palate is a bold combination of sour and spicy sweets. I should say it can be said that it is extravagant because the Filipino food is often delivered in a single presentation, the participant is a simultaneous visual feast, aromatic bouquet and a taste appetizer. Dinner and lunch still the main meal. Compared with other countries snacking is normal and it is possible that a person eats five meals a day.
Philippines itself has evolved over the centuries under the influence of different cultures. It was of Chinese, Malay, Spanish and has been influenced to a lesser extent by American and Indian culture which has resulted in a unique multi-cultural blend of ingredients and dishes. The dishes range from a simple meal of fish and rice to rich paellas and cocidos. Some popular dishes include sinigang, lechon, longanisa, tortas, adobo, Kaldereta, kare-kare, pancit, lumpia, and halo-halo which is good and popular during high summer season.

And for afters we had these fruits avocado, apple and mandarin! 😉
Since I’m diabetic we prefer to have more fruits than sweets or dessert. After all the two kids are got used to it.

And for my two kids I cooked Spirali Tricolore with Champignon-Mozzarella-Peeled Tomatoes-Basil Leaves (Pasta with Champignon-Mozzarella Sauce). Because they don’t eat much mackerel specially if it is cooked with soup and vegetables. They prefer fried or fried with a little bit of sauce.

YOU NEED…….

* 250g Champignon
* 500ml Butter Milk
* 250g Sour Cream
* Some grated Mozzarella Cheese
* 500g Spirale Tricolore (Pasta)
* 3tbsps. Butter
* Salt to taste
* Herbs (Italian Herbs)
* 5pcs. medium-sized peeled Tomatoes
* Some Basil Leaves fresh or dried (I used dried)

HOW TO…….

** Cooked pasta according to package instruction al dente.
** Heat a pan or caserole, melt butter saute tomatoes and champignon. Add herbs, basil leaves, butter milk and sour cream. Cook for about five minutes. Season with salt and pour sauce to pasta topped with mozzarella chesse. Serve while hot. Happy Cooking and Guten Appetit 😉

BIRTHDAY: FOOD SPEND FOR COLLEAGUES

May 20, 2014 Dolly

For birthdays, it is common in my company that the birthday child brings a meal plus cake or dessert. As a celebration with colleagues.

Since they love my Sotanghon with chicken breast and shrimps, I always cook it for them about two and half kilo Sotanghon for fifteen people. Some of them tried to cook it at home I just gave them my personal recipe but everybody saying that it turned out not as good as mine. They would love to have it at work from me. 😉

And not to forget the Lumping Shanghai and sometimes spring rolls. Most of the time they would ask me for spring rolls without ground meat. They also love my version pure vegetables in it. Like cabbage or pechay, carrots, mung bean sprouts (togue), potatoes, green beans and spring onions. I use to bring it alternately for option.

For cake this time my daughter baked a Guglehupf. It was her recipe for them to try.
We always have fun while eating and everybody are helping for setting the table everytime we have celebretion. Besides of celebration we also have our breakfast together whenever we have duty on Saturdays. Having fun and good time together while having our breakfast.

In Austria PanCakes are called “PALATSCHINKEN”. Why “PALATSCHINKEN”?
It has been told that the name PALATSCHINKEN or PANCAKE is originally from the Romanian and there was derived from the Latin placenta for cakes and then the Hungarian (Palacsinta) in large parts of Central Europe on borrowed (Austria, Czech Republic, Slovenia, Croatia, etc.). Crepes are thinner and finer than the usual pancakes and eaten both savory and sweet filled in Austria, Hungary and the Balkans.
