Sweet Red Bean Soup

Very traditional Asian dessert which my husband can't stand at all. :-D


Lemon Drizzle Cake

Made this for a farewell party, lemon drizzle cake with poppy seed and blueberry.
Icing wasn't very successful this time though... need to try again. >_<

Bacon & Spinach Quiche

I love quiche. (So does my husband. :-D)
Very convenient for a lazy wife like me. Ha!
Make one for dinner and have enough leftovers for two lunches.




Crust
200g plain flour
125g cold butter
1 egg
pinch of salt
some milk

Form a dough then refrigerate until ready to use.
Blind bake at 190C/375F for 15mins.
Remove weights and bake at 170C/350F for another 10min.

Filling
4 eggs
300ml cream (double cream, single cream, milk, or mixed)
Anything you like, cooked (I put bacon, spinach, and Gruyere cheese)
Salt & pepper to taste

Pour the filling in the crust, then bake at 170C/350F until golden (20~30 mins).
