One must know how to make a basic cake before u attempt to do this one.

Ingredients:
(ingredient A)
500g mixed fruits (to be soaked in brandy + Rum+honey ) for 3 days
30g honey
125ml brandy
250g butter (it is actually 1 block of butter. To taste better,use ONLY PURE BUTTER )
70g soft brown sugar
1 tbsp molasses
1tbsp of vanilla

50g semolina
5 eggs
125g hazel nut or almond chopped coarsely

Sift:
250g plain flour (soft or fine)1½ tsp baking powder
1½ tsp mixed spice
½ tsp ground cinnamon (cinamon powder)
¼ tsp nutmeg powder
¼ tsp salt
4 – 5 tbsp brandy



Directions:
Method
Combine ingredients (A), honey and brandy in a mixing bowl. Honey will ensure that the fruit mix will not be bitter after a few days of soaking in alcoholic bevergae.Mix well to blend then cover with a piece of plastic wrap. Leave aside for two to three days for the fruits to macerate. Use a wooden spoon to mix the fruits everyday.

Line the base and sides of a 20cm square baking tin with two layers of non-stick parchment paper, leaving about 4cm above the sides of the tin.(Or line the cake tin with tracing paper, brush with melted butter, sprinkle flour into it evenly - to dust it)
Cream butter and sugar until just creamy. Add semolina and continue to cream until mixture turns light. Beat in eggs one at a time. Stir in molasses and essence to combine.

Add macerated fruits to the creamed mixture, alternating it with the flour (very important to follow this so that the fruit do not sink when is ready). Mix the ingredients using your hand. (It is not only easier this way but ensures thorough mixing as well.) Stir in chopped hazel nut and mix. (use wooden spoon also can)
Turn out mixture into prepared tin, spreading well into the four corners. Hold the tin firmly and drop it from a height of about 15cm on to a firm tabletop. (This is to settle the mixture into the tin properly and also to break up any air bubbles.)

Level the surface with a clean plastic spatula then place the cake in a preheated oven at 150°C for 2½ – 2¾ hours. Preheat the oven 10 min before baking. Half-way through baking, cover the cake with a piece of aluminum foil for an hour then remove the foil (thi is important so that the top layer of the cake will not burn or dry) and continue baking until it is cooked through.Prick the cake to see whether it is fully cooked. If the batter sticks to it that means your cake need to be bake for may be 10 min.Judge it yourself.

After cake is baked, brush with the extra brandy and leave it to set for 30 minutes (poked the cake with fork so that while brushing the brandy is easier to be sip inside the cake). Cover the cake tightly with a piece of foil. Leave the cake to cool in the tin, covered with foil. Remove the cake from the tin and discard the nonstick parchment paper. Rewrap the cake with clean greaseproof paper followed by foil outside.

FYI, I will continue to brush the cake with brandy & rum for another 3 days before serviing them

Happy Baking. smile.gif

PLEASE HELP:

How to make a TASTY chicken breast dish?

Required ingrediants(sorry I'm an athlete): 4 chicken breasts,kidney beans,green beans,olive oil,any two kinds of greens and low GI foods(brown rice etc)

I am really sick of grilling my chicken breast with plain olive oil and eating everything seperately-greens etc. I really need to find a recipe if someone could help cook something up smile.gif Any additional ingrediants to help make my diet an easier and tastier experience will be welcomed. I don't care much about the calories since I need a lot of calories-just no fried or bad fat.

Sorry if it was vague, newbie cook here seeking humble help.

Cut the breast meat in2 cubes.You can actually stir fry (use olive oil if u have too on a non stick pan or wok)with black pepper sauce (easily available in d supermarket but get the one from Sarawak- taste better). Cut big onions to be place it last n fry for less than 60 sec (it will be crunchy & sweet. too long it will taste soggy)

Or u boil or steam d chicken.tear in2 strips. add chili padi or red chili, shallots,cucumber,mint leave, onions,bunga kantan(chopped). Honey (1tbs or sugar - 1 tsp) Honey will be healthier togther with lime or lemon.This is like Thai Salad.Very healthy n non oily.

Happy cooking.

can anyone teach how to do prawn mee?
please!

WOW..this is a lot of work. U got to have lot's of prawn, bone (pig or chicken). U need to peel the prawns and dun throw the shell. Fry the prawn shell n then pour in water and add the bone/ribs. and there r other ingredient. I suggest u buy the ready made paste (available in Kiew Brothers dry meat shop - Ngo loi ya)Put in the whole packet. to the soup.

Prepare yellow noodle,bee hoon,kangkung, meat (just boiled & slice it thin), prawn (boiled oso), deep fried shallots, and hard boiled eggs. You can oso add sotong if you wish.

thanks
but im overseas so i think will be harder to get the stuff sad.gif

how bout chicken rice?the rice is the important part..
i got no oven somemore to do the roasted chicken sad.gif

Chicken rice is actually cooked with the chicken oil & stock. Since u dun have oven u can forget abt Roasted chicken. Anyway , it

U can cook Hainan chicken Rice for yrself. Healthier for you. Besides Chicken breast , you could use drumstick instead (tender meat). The chicken is actually using boiled process however this process is different as u need to have 1 pot of boiling water and u dip the chicken in & out. So 4get abt tis one. Just steam the drumstick. Then when is ready, just pour some sesame oil (a few drop), garlic oil (u can use olive oil to deep fry garlic), soya sauce,spring onion and shredded ginger.Serve with rice.

All the earlier ingredient that I mention can be purchased from the Supermarket like black pepper (not necessary Sarawak brand ) tot u r in Malaysia. Dunno where u r, perhaps u could Asian market

well im a student in a hostel so u can imagine what basic things i have only sad.gif
but we have mini oven-gril.. can set up to 230 "C i think. can do the chicken there?

for the rice? just with chicken oil and stock? chicken stock? chicken oil is from? i mean fry chicken then use the oil?

thanks

No no not fry the chicken n get d oil tongue.gif . d ppl that sell the chicken rice, they will usually boil a lot of chicken and they uses that water which ppl call stock to cook the rice. iT smell n taste good like Hainanese chicken Rice.

Yr mini oven is a toaster oven or or really the oven.There's a difference.Oven toaster tak boleh lar.Not long enuf to cook the chicken evenly.

http://priceclubgh.com/yahoo_site_admin/as...4991033_std.JPG

but can reach until 230 and put long...
im not gonna roast a whole chicken..
its just me per serve...

Not tis one....is meant toasting but not roasting. Yr oven can only go for max 15 min. Besides it will not be even (heat).This ove is good for making garlic bread, toast bread,light item n quick

Well, the temperature can't be too high cos the outside meat is cooked but not inside. It has to be a slow heat.

Same goes for grilling steak or fried fish.The heat must not be HIGH.
