Easy Air Fryer Crunchy Meat Floss Spring Roll (Popiah)

Posted on By sweet surrender 2 Comments on Easy Air Fryer Crunchy Meat Floss Spring Roll (Popiah)

Have been busy since the new year started. Lunar new year in less than two weeks’ time! As usual, I’ll bake the mini popiah with an air fryer. It’s much easier with an air fryer or oven. Deep-fried is a no-no as it will be very oily. You just need spring roll pastry sheets, meat floss of your choice, and cornstarch+water as the “glue”. Next, air fry it for 20 minutes at a temperature of 140 degrees Celsius. Give it a stir or shake at mid-cycle. Do check out the video for more details.

How are your preparations for the Lunar New Year this year? I’ve done 5 types of snacks this year. Few more to go. If you want to try to do some CNY goodies, you can check out this post 8 Easy Recipes for CNY that I posted last year.

Going to be slow in updating this month and next month. Not sure when will be the next post coming. However, you will find daily updates on my Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and TikTok. Meanwhile, there will be weekly updates on Youtube and XHS.

Quick Review KLEENSO PESSO Eco Ant Bait Effectiveness

Posted on By sweet surrender 1 Comment on Quick Review KLEENSO PESSO Eco Ant Bait Effectiveness

I did review another ant bait a few months back. It’s the ARS Natural Ant Bait. This time, I will share about KLEENSO PESSO Eco Ant Bait.

In fact, I’ve used this before and it did work very well. No mess at all. We didn’t see any ants around for quite some time since then. However, we all know it will certainly come back sooner or later. Found them in another area of the house so decided to get this again.

I didn’t have the chance to see ants going into it but somehow, a few days later, no more ants were in sight. Unlike ARS Natural Ant Bait that you can see the ants carrying the granules to the nest and leaving some of the granules scattered along its path. There wasn’t any mess with KLENSSO PESSO.

You can even put it in any orientation you like without worrying about the bait falling out from the container because it’s not in granule form. This is more versatile if you want to put it in a narrow area.

I do recommend this if you are looking for effective ant bait. I got Kleenso Pesso Eco Ant Bait here https://invl.io/clfbdhh from Shopee.

4 Tea and Milo Easy Delicious Beverage Recipes

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on 4 Tea and Milo Easy Delicious Beverage Recipes

Recently, I experimented with tea and Milo to make easy and delicious beverages. It all started with a free sample of Lipton Tea Potbag Extra Kaw. Since I have Milo at home too, I tried combining both. All the recipes will require evaporated milk and condensed milk for the richness of the drinks.

Teh Tarik Kaw

First, I started with teh tarik kaw. Very sweet teh tarik it is. If you add ice, you can make 2 glasses. When the ice is diluted, it will be less sweet.

Less Sweet Iced Teh Tarik

Next, here is the iced teh tarik recipe for those who want their teh tarik less sweet and not as kaw. You can omit the ice if you don’t want it cold. If you have ice, it will be even less sweet. Just adjust accordingly to your preference. No hard rules.

Iced Milo

Meanwhile, here’s a recipe with no tea involved. If you want to do something similar to the Milo van’s Milo, you can try this recipe out. It tastes similar (don’t expect it to be 100%) to the Milo from Milo van that we used to have when we were in school. It must be served cold with or without ice. The Milo will be more diluted and less sweet if ice is added.

Chocolate Tea

Lastly, I’ve always been on the lookout for chocolate tea in local cafes but I couldn’t find any. Unfortunately, I always found chai latte instead of chocolate tea. My first taste of chocolate tea was in Chocolate Bean, Adelaide (no longer in operation). I liked it and always wonder how it’s made but never get around doing it.

Since I have Lipton Tea Potbag Extra Kaw now, I can try to make one. Prior to this, I tried looking for recipes online and found out that I don’t have the spices mentioned. Then, I found one that has almost everything I have and I adjusted it slightly. Instead of cocoa powder and sugar, I used Milo, evaporated milk, and condensed milk.

By the way, the cinnamon powder is optional. Feel free to skip it if you dislike spices. If you do so, the kick won’t be there, there won’t be depth to it. However, the taste is different from the one I had in Adelaide because I didn’t add all those additional spices. Still, it is still not bad.

There you go. I hope this sharing is useful. Do try it out and let me know how you like them. Remember that you are free to adjust the ingredients here and there to suit your own tastebuds. Have fun experimenting.

Easy 2-Ingredient Chocolate Milk using Cooking Chocolate

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Easy 2-Ingredient Chocolate Milk using Cooking Chocolate

I have some leftover cooking chocolate left after making chocolate cake. So, I decided to make chocolate milk with it. The cooking chocolate itself is sweet enough so there is no need to add extra sugar.

Very basic ingredients. Just need hot milk with some cooking chocolate. A pinch of salt is optional. If you have chocolate sauce, it will make your life so much easier. Just hot milk with chocolate sauce. Mix them well. As simple as that!

By the way, isn’t the mug cute? I don’t think you can easily find this now. However, there are many similar couple mugs on Lazada. Do check them out if you want.

Limited Edition CubicFun 3D Puzzle of Guangdong Arcade Building

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Limited Edition CubicFun 3D Puzzle of Guangdong Arcade Building

I didn’t buy this Limited Edition CubicFun 3D Puzzle of Guangdong Arcade Building. It was given to me by the Tourism Administration of Guangdong Province, China. I went there in 2017 for an official trip. I am not sure how many of these were given out but I just can’t seem to find them anywhere online. I’m guessing that this is specifically designed for the tourism administration as one of their corporate souvenirs.

I am not into this kind of puzzle. Almost 5 years later, I opened this up and assembled it. Hahaha… For the sake of uploading a video on my YouTube channel because I ran out of content ;p It is quite an easy puzzle. I’m sure those in primary school or even kindergarten know how to do it. It took me almost an hour though. If it’s not because of filming it, I guess I could complete it in a shorter time frame.

After making this, I did find it quite fun to do. I don’t mind doing some other 3D puzzles if I got my hands on them. However, I won’t specifically buy it 😀 I do not mind getting it as a gift though. Anyway, do you like to play with this kind of puzzle?

I’ve been to China a few times for work purposes but I’ve never been there for leisure. I did blog about it before but not about the work. It’s more on the places I’ve been to while on duty and hotels that I stayed in when I was there. Funnily, I did not have any post on Guangzhou where I got this puzzle because the trip was too overwhelming. I had no time to take many photos of the trip except for work report purposes.
