Ibumie Penang White Curry Mee Instant Soup Noodle with Natural Ingredients Chilli Paste

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Ibumie Penang White Curry Mee Instant Soup Noodle with Natural Ingredients Chilli Paste

Opps… It’s been over a week, forgotten to make a new post 😀

During MCO, I went grocery shopping. I decided to get Penang white curry mee instant noodle. I’ve eaten the real thing but have never try the instant noodle even though it’s been around for ages and friends from Penang were stocking it up at home in Australia so that they can satisfy their craving for it. I think it’s another brand that they stocked, MyKuali, I think… I decided to give Ibumie a try as it was cheaper hahaha…

If I go to Penang, I will definitely go to find white curry mee instead of Penang Laksa *LOL*

Anyway, here’s my quick review on it. It’s quite good! I was blown away! It’s quite close to the real thing. The chilli paste isn’t too spicy for those who can eat spicy food, it’s just right for me. It’s far less spicy than the real thing. I couldn’t even spoon a spoonful of chilli paste for the real thing, could only manage a tiny bit of it, very tiny! About 2 teaspoons Hahaha!! I guess for Penang white curry mee, the key to make or break the whole dish is the chilli paste. If the chilli paste is made the way you like it, then it will certainly win your heart. If you can’t eat spicy food, you can just eat the white broth without the chilli paste but then it will not be white curry noodle anymore, it’s just savoury coconut prawn broth, the taste is weird without the chilli paste.

Overall, I do like this and would repurchase. Will also try to buy the other brand to try out next time 😉

My Lava Cake Attempts with Rice Cooker

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on My Lava Cake Attempts with Rice Cooker

Lava cake is something I used to eat once in a blue moon. It’s not easy to find good ones, that’s why I don’t bother spending my money on it. It’s usually quite expensive too. Most time, I’ll end up with lava cake that did not ooze like it should, such a waste of money. I didn’t dare to attempt to do it too because I thought it is very hard and troublesome. I love to bake but I dislike dealing with too many steps and techniques. However, during the early days of MCO, I saw many people making it. I did a bit of research and found out that I have all the ingredients and the steps are easy, I decided to give it a try.

Here’s my first attempt using Malteser hot chocolate powder, do check out the video on my YouTube for the full recipe and instructions:

WOW! I didn’t expect it to be a success! Beginner’s luck maybe… Many used the steamer but I decided to use the rice cooker as it is easier and less hassle. There is no need to worry about the flame. All you need to do is boil the water in the rice cooker, remember to put a tray or steaming rack inside. Once it boils, put your cake batter in the mould in and let it steam for 8 minutes or less(for the size of standard cupcake mould). Don’t steam it for over 8 minutes or you will end up with steamed chocolate cake 😀

Here’s my second attempt with Milo and with no sugar added, just the sweetness from the Milo itself. I steamed it for a bit too long as I lost track of the time, hence the filling turned out stickier instead of runny.

So… Yes… You can omit the sugar if you are using chocolate drink powder that is already sweet on its own. You can check out the full recipe and instructions in the video too.

Try it out and let me know how you fare 😉 I didn’t expect it to be so easy!

Limited Edition Oreo, Fun with #SayItWithOreo

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Limited Edition Oreo, Fun with #SayItWithOreo

I’ve been seeing Oreo advertisement of Oreo about its limited edition alphabets printed Oreo. I went shopping the other day, saw it and decided to get it. Haven’t eat Oreo for a very looooong time. I think the last time I ate Oreo was last year. Anyway, I decided to make a video for it ;p here is the ASMR version.

Here is the normal video hahaha… I decided to do two versions because initially this was the plan then when I edited it, I realized I could do an ASMR version if it. Since I’ve recorded myself talking and it’s been a while not posting this kind of video, I ended up with two versions. This one will premiere tomorrow though hehehe…

Did you manage to get this Oreo? It’s quite fun trying to figure out words that you can make from it. Did get it and have fun playing with it? I did.

Self-Rising Flour Apam Balik | Improvised Apam Balik (no crushed peanuts, butter, baking powder)

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Self-Rising Flour Apam Balik | Improvised Apam Balik (no crushed peanuts, butter, baking powder)

I didn’t expect so many people will watch this video. It was my first time making Apam Balik aka Martabak Manis or 曼煎粿. I improvised it because I didn’t have crushed peanuts. It’s crispy when it’s freshly out from the pan, hence do not wait! Eat immediately! Otherwise it will become quite chewy. Do check out this video’s descriptions to see more details of the process. Here’s the direct link to the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Jejfx97iIE

ASMR Unbox & Cook Halal Nissin Ramen Uma-Kara Spicy Rich Fiery Broth & Tokyo Shoyu Premium Bonito Blend

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on ASMR Unbox & Cook Halal Nissin Ramen Uma-Kara Spicy Rich Fiery Broth & Tokyo Shoyu Premium Bonito Blend

Just found out I did not post my ASMR halal ramen unboxing video here. After I posted the first video, few days later, MCO kicked in. Here I have two that I bought from AEON earlier this year. If you would like to try it out, I would recommend these two. Uma-Kara Spicy Rich Fiery Broth and Tokyo Shoyu Premium Bonito Blend. The former is great for those who love heat and spice while the latter isn’t spicy. My tip is that do not follow the amount of water suggested for the broth, it will be tasteless. Just use half of the suggested amount or less. Do adjust it to your preference.

We are still in RMCO, today is day 114 of MCO, still have a long way to go. Hope all of you are well and stay vigilant.
