“Rotiboy” Mexican Coffee Bun Recipe
(makes about 17 buns)

Coffee Topping Ingredients

200 g softened butter(14 TBS is 200 grams of butter)
160 g icing sugar
3 lightly beaten eggs
2 tbsp instant coffee dissolved in 1 tbsp water
a pinch of ground cinnamon
200 g flour

Method

Beat the butter and sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy. Gradually beat in eggs. Mix in coffee flavoring. Sift flour onto mixture and mix until combined. Refrigerate the mixture.

Sweet Bun Dough Ingredients

500 g bread flour
20 g milk powder
75 g castor sugar
6 g salt/1 tsp
8 g instant yeast/1 tbsp
5 g bread improver (vital wheat gluten – optional)
1 lightly beaten egg
270 g water 1 1/4 cup
60 g softened butter

Method

1. Mix flour, milk powder, sugar and salt in mixer on low speed 1 min.

2. Add in yeast, egg and water. Mix on low speed for 1 minute, then medium speed for 8 minutes.

3. Add butter and mix for 5 minutes more on medium speed until a soft, smooth and elastic dough forms.

4. Remove dough from mixing bowl and shape into a ball.

5. Divide the dough into 55 gram portions. Roll each portion in to a ball and then cover and set aside for 10 minutes.

6. Flatten a ball of dough and place a 10 gram cube of butter into the center of the dough.



7. Gather the edges and pinch to seal. Pat into shape and place on a greased baking tray. Proof the buns for 45 minutes.

8. Preheat oven to 200*C (400*F).

(Notice that we’re using the wrappers from sticks of butter to line the baking sheet. Annie learned this tip from Fine Cooking magazine. The butter wrappers are like pre-greased parchment paper!)

9. Scoop the topping mixture into a piping bag and pipe the topping in a spiral pattern onto the buns.



10. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the buns are lightly brown.



Remove from oven to cool, but not too long. They are best eaten warm. Can’t eat just one!



These buns also freeze well, and it’s always nice to have a stash in your freezer for a quick fix when a craving hits! All you need to do is to heat it up in a hot oven (I usually use 180°C) for about 10 minutes until it’s heated through

Jelly Santan Gula Melaka

Bahan-bahan : 1 paket serbuk agar-agar 10 gm (setengah paket ) 1 liter air (4 cawan) 1 ketul gula melaka/jawa (lebih kurang 200 gm) 1/4 cwn gula pasir 250 ml santan pekat (Yatie guna 100 ml santan pekat kara dan selebihnya tambahkan air) 1 biji telur ayam - masukkan dalam santan dan kocak sikit dengan garfu Secubit garam 2 helai daun pandan - dibasuh dan disimpulkan Cara-cara: Masak gula melaka yg diracik halus, gula pasir bersama 2 cwn air. Masukkan daun pandan yg di simpul. Masak hingga didih dan sentiasa di kacau. Dalam periuk bersih, masak 4 cawan air bersama dengan agar2. Masak hingga mendidih. Tapiskan lepas masak dan campur dgn Gula Melaka tadi...sentiasalah di kacau hingga didih. Kecilkan api dan masukkan campuran santan bersama telur dan garam. Kacau dan tunggu hingga menggelegak atas api sederhana. PENTING!! Bila menggelegak, biar seketika lebih kurang 1-2 minit atau boleh kuatkan api dapur dan biar adunan mengelegak kuat sambil dikacau-kacau. Kacau ni untuk mengelakkan adunan membuak dan melimpah dari periuk. Pandai-pandailah adjust api dapur tu ye. Nanti akan kelihatan adunan santan jadi berbintil-bintil. Tutup api. Basahkan loyang atau apa-apa acuan kegemaran dengan air. Kemudian tuang adunan agar-agar santan dan biarkan mengeras. Boleh simpan di dalam peti ais untuk mendapatkan agar-agar yang sejuk dan umpphhh bila masuk ke tekak..heheheeee... TIPS DAN NOTA NAZ: Banyak orang yang tertanya-tanya kenapa bila membuat agar-agar santan, tidak mendapat 2 lapisan seperti yang sepatutnya walaupun masing-masing selalunya dah ikut betul-betul resepi yang mereka guna. Jadi, tipsnya ialah selepas memasukkan santan ke dalam periuk, biar adunan menggelegak lama sikit dalam 1 minit atau lebih. Ataupun, selepas masukkan santan, bila adunan mula mengelegak, kuatkan api dapur hingga adunan mengelegak kuat. Tapi kena hati-hati jangan sampai adunan membuak dan melimpah keluar dari periuk. Kacau-kacau adunan dalam 1 minit. Insyallah..confirm anda akan mendapat hasil agar-agar yang mempunyai 2 lapisan selepas keras nanti. Kalau yang suka lapisan santan tu nipis jer, kurangkan kuantiti santan di dalam resepi ye. Nanti dapatlah lapisan santan (yang bahagian atas tu), nipis sikit berbanding dengan bahagian bawahnya. http://yatiememories.blogspot.com/2012/12/agar-agar-santan-gula-melaka.html

Steamed Egg Cake/Kueh Nerng Kor

Recipe
- 220g eggs excluding weight of shells (about 4 large eggs)
- 210g caster sugar
- 230g cake flour or top flour (sifted 2 or 3 times)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 6 tbsp cream soda or 7-Up or Sprite

1. Whisk the eggs till frothy, then start adding sugar a little by little, to ensure it is well-incorporated. Add vanilla extract and continue beating until the batter becomes very pale, thick and creamy. This takes time, and there is no shortcut. Meanwhile, heat up your wok, pot or steamer until you get a gentle boil. Do make sure it is large enough to fit the cake tin and has ample space for the batter to rise and the steam to circulate.

2. Fold in the flour in thirds, alternating with the soda, and ending with flour. Once there are no streaks of flour, stop.

3. To steam, either pour the mixture into a bamboo steamer lined with greaseproof paper or use a 6 or 7-inch lined baking tin. Pop it into the wok, pot or steamer - then cover - and steam on high for 30mins.

4. Once done, place the cake on a rack and allow to cool before slicing.
