Amish Potato Bread

I have been wanting to try out this recipe for quite a while; which uses a combination of Bread Flour, Wholemeal Flour and mashed potato.  It's a big loaf of soft and delicious bread, so fulfilling for breakfast.


I adapted this recipe from 'Taste of Home' and to get the full recipe, click the link here.

I would love to share pictures  which I captured during the process of baking this delicious bread....

Fried Nian Gao aka Chinese New Year Cake

I love this Nian Gao aka Chinese New Year Cake.  Since I saw this recipe online, and still having stock in the fridge, I try it out; it's delicious, crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside.


Ingredients: 

8-9 pieces Nian Gao/sticky glutinous rice cake


Batter:

20g. rice flour (sifted)

20g. plain flour (sifted)

1/4 tsp. salt

60ml. Carbonated drink (chilled)

1 tbsp. white sesame seeds


Methods:

  1. In a bowl, combine all the batter ingredients until smooth.
  2. In a medium heated wok add some oil for deep frying.
  3. Coat the Nian Gao slices with batter and deep fry until golden brown and crisp, turning over in between frying.
  4. Remove and dish onto a serving plate. Repeat until all is done.
  5. Serve!

I adapted this yummylicious recipe from 'Miki's Food Archives.'
