can anyone tell me why my chocolate cake can't turn out fluffy?
the chocolate cake itself taste great, but it's the texture that fails.
baked butter cake and it turn out all fluffy and good.
but when i bake chocolate cake it always turn out compact and not fluffy.
but i have to ask izit my oven's problem? cuz my oven doesnt have the celcius or degree meter,
only have defrost, , keep warm, slow cook, and fast cook, so i put between slow and fast cook.
followed this recipe, mayb u guys can try it and gv some feedback here. thankz : )

never tried making chocolate cake before...but the recipe looks weird...adding hot boiling water into the batter

so did you put the same amount of baking powder as recommended? did you preheat ur oven?
maybe next time you try it on high heat for first 6-10mins to make the cake rise, then turn medium heat to make it cooked

I never tried Kim Gary borscht soup but I thought beetroot is used instead of tomato? But I guess you could subtitute

Ingredients
# 100g shallots, diced
# 300g beetroot, peeled, diced

# 1 sprig thyme
# 1 pinch nutmeg powder
# 40ml red wine vinegar or other vinegars
# 800ml water
# 1 teaspoon salt
# 1 teaspoon sugar
# pepper to taste
# 20ml vodka (optional)

topping
# Mascarpone cheese or sour cream

Method
In a roomy saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sauté the shallots until translucent. Add the rest of the ingredients, except the vodka, and bring to boil. Lower heat and simmer until beetroot is soft. Add the vodka and blend in a food processor until smooth. Adjust the seasonings to taste. Serve warm or chilled, with a quenelle of mascarpone cheese or a big dollop of sour cream.

Paprika Pork Slices


I actually took a picture of this, but I'm, uh, too lazy to upload it, really. Sorry.

Anyway.

Ingredients:
Chopped garlic, to taste
Grated ginger, 1 tablespoon
1 tbsp light soya sauce
2 tbsp paprika
1/4 tbsp garlic salt
1/2lbs. pork chop. Slice it up.
3 handfuls of pea sprouts
Cheddar cheese, to taste. Preferably in rectangular blocks.
1 tsp water

Preparation:
1. Heat 1 teaspoon of oil in a frying pan. Before it gets too hot, add the ginger in. Stir briskly to prevent it from sticking or burning. Once it gets fragrant, discard the ginger.
2. Add 1/2 tablespoon of oil and the chopped garlic. Stir until slightly brown, then add the pork.
3. Stir. Once the pork loses all red-ness, add the soya sauce. Continue stirring until sauce stops sizzling on the pan. Add water and stir for a bit more.
4. Add the paprika and garlic salt. Stir for about 15 seconds, then add the pea sprouts.
5. Keep the pea sprouts in the middle of the pan as you stir. Once they look like they're starting to get soft, add in the cheese on top of the sprouts.
6. As the cheese melts, remember to stir the sprouts into it. Keep the meat away and to the side. Make sure it doesn't get burned.
7. Once about half of the cheese has melted and mixed with the sprouts, quickly serve it on a plate.

if silken tauhu....can make MaPo tauhu

Tauhu, minced chicken, minced garlic n onion, thai chili sauce, oyster sauce,cornstarch

1. saute garlic n onion until lightly golden, add minced chicken. stir constantly so that it is browned all over. It's okay if some stick to the pan.

2. add water just enough to cover the mince meat. When water boils, add tauhu (cut into medium chuncks). Stir gently so that tauhu will not break into million pieces.

3. add oyster sauce n thai chili sauce, if necessary...add some sugar n salt. when water boils again, add cornstarch to thicken the sauce.

4. dish out n ready to serve.
