Then into the oven 180 degree celcius fan forced until golden brown.

Ready to serve,,, we had as our afternoon snack with sweet chilli :D

I had fun 'playing' in the kitchen

On Thursday, 20th August 2009, I had fun in the kitchen.

My fun in the kitchen means spending quite some time in the kitchen

preparing something, either making cake mixture or fritter mixture

or just simply finding recipes.

On that day, my husband was taking care of our baby

and there I was in the kitchen playing with wonton.

For quite some time I have tried to find wonton skin

but no luck until few days before, we went to Maitland

and saw wonton skin in Woolworths.

Previously, before I found these real wonton skins,

I use flat mountain bread as the wonton skin, it works well too.

Only it doesn't stay crispy for long, not like this real wonton skin..

Ok then,,,, here is the recipes:

Ingredients:

40 pcs of wonton skin

500 gr of minced turkey

4 spring onion, sliced thinly

3 garlic, minced well

2 tbsp of sesame oil

1 tsp of MASSEL chicken powder

1/2 tsp of pepper.

Method:

Mix all ingredients well.

Spoon 1 - 2 tsp into the wonton skin,

and start folding it, until all minced mixture finished.

In my case there was still some minced mixture left.

I made something from it,,, will be in the next posting.

I have not fry them yet, they are still in the freezer.

I will post their pictures once fried.

Oh I fold those wontons in different kind of models - as you can see in the picture.

Had a lot of fun and,,, and the big wontons for sure are for my husband hahaha...

Fried Masala Fish

I posted this recipe before using orange roughy fillet.

This time I used salmon... big fish, meaty...

Ingredients:
1 salmon fillet, boned & skinned
1/2 brown onion, sliced thinly
Salt, as needed.

Spices mixture:
1 tsp ground coriander
1/2 tsp ground turmeric

1 tsp chilli powder
1 garlic, grated
Oil, as needed

1/2 tsp salt

Mix all spices together with oil, this time I made it quite thick.

Method:
Heat oil, sautee brown onion, add salt, for about 20 minutes

until the color becomes black and really translucent then set aside.
Using tip of knife, make some incission on salmon meat.

Just so the spices mixture will get into the fish,

and when you fried it the inner sider of the fish will be cooked

because this is a meaty/thick salmon.

Rub fish with spices mixtures thickly.
Heat the oil you use to sautee brown onion

fried fish for 2-3 minutes on each side until cooked.

I put the other mixture onto the other side of the fish when once side is on the frying pan. By doing this, I get a thick spices mixture on the fish, instead of smearing it on the plate.

My Style of Malaysian Roti

I'm still curious about this Roti.

I added 1 sachet (7 grams) of dry yeast into the mixture.

I like this one better than the previous one I made

http://missluckypiggy.blogspot.com/2009/08/meat-balls-curry-and-my-style-of.html

The result is a soft and fluffy bread.

because the result is a soft and fluffy roti.
Try it yourself ... yummmoooo :-)

And this time I tried to bake it,

but I prefer the Fried one better.

Perhaps I should add baking powder if I want to bake it.

Well,,, there is always next time...

Maybe next time besides dry yeast, I will also add baking powder.

Then bake it, see whats the result, and will share it with you.

Cheers Guys :-)
