I have been living in Hungary for almost six years and this is the first attempt at making this very delicious Cottage Cheese dessert. This is one of the most craved item during my pregnancy and one of the best news is that, Cottage Cheese is a very healthy food for pregnant ladies! :) The recipe is simple as I am making the Hungarian ones and the following is how I made it today:
Ingredients:
Cottage Cheese (2 packets)
Semolina flour
Egg Yorks (3 big ones)
Egg Whites (Whisk it til fluffy and peak)
For the coating:
Breadcrumbs
Butter
Tejfol (Sour Cream)
Icing Sugar (Powder Sugar)
Procedures:
- Mix Cottage Cheese with Semolina Flour. Add in Egg York. Fold in the Egg White.
- Wet your hand and palms, roll the mixture into round balls.
- Prepare a pot of hot boiling water.
- Drop them into the water one by one. They are cooked when they starts to float on the water.
- Concurrently, on a non-stick pan, melt some butter and pour in bread crumbs. Brown the bread crumbs til golden brown.
- Transfer the floating balls out from the boiling water and coat them with the golden brown bread crumbs.
- Mix icing sugar into the sour cream and stir.
- Drizzle onto the ready Cottage Cheese Balls and serve.
Optional garnish: Sieve some icing sugar before serving. Enjoy!

Do you know that Chocolate Mousse was invented by the French post-impressionist painter Henri Toulouse-Lautrec? It was at first known as mayonnaise de chocolat. Mousse (or Foam) is a texture originated in the 18th century. While chocolate came to France in 1615. The way it makes chocolate mousse fluffy using the Gelatin Method: is stirring Gelatin (to stabilize) into the melted chocolate, whip heavy until soft peaks form. Then fold the whipped cream into melted chocolate. This is a 6" Chocolate Mousse cake. I ordered it for my husband's 50th Golden Jubilee Birthday celebration at our own home. It's very delicious with this wickedly yummy chocolate that is so so rich!

Char Siew (or Char Siu) is a Cantonese (from Guangdong China) style of barbecued pork made with a mixture of honey, five-spice powder, fermented tofu (that is red), dark soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sherry (or rice wine). Normally when I order Wanton Noodles, it will come with a few slices of char siu. This char siew is genuinely roasted and you can taste it is different from the regular Wanton Noodles stalls. This is at the foodhub at Stirling at block 169.

Nigiri is similar to sushi in that it contains rice and is similar to sashimi in that it contains raw seafood. However, unlike sushi, nigiri does not contain extra ingredients or seaweed, and unlike sashimi, it contains vinegar rice. It is only raw seafood served over rice. I ordered a large family platter of 57 pieces for us this year to celebrate my husband's birthday.

After almost three months into our new place, we hosted our very first Hot Pot Steamboat Party. I bought the Philips HD4911/62 SENSOR TOUCH Induction cooker in February and finally Singapore has reopened and we invited my old gym buddy to have this delicious steamboat shabu-shabu party at our home.
It was simply some preparation of the broth, cooked some rice and assembly and cutting of the various options of vegetables and 'dish items' listed above. My whole family enjoyed it a lot and I think it is very nice way for us to bond and have a cosy family dinner.
Post-post: Have you wondered how mung bean vermicelli or Cellophane noodles, glass Noodles comes about? Is it really from Mung Beans? Here's a 'making video' to show how it is made:

Salmon Belly Sashimi S$21 for 7pcs — at Tampopo たんぽぽ.
With Francine, we had a great catch up after a hi-tea at 10 Scotts Grand Hyatt. Tampopo is a recommendation made by her after a 3hr shopping near Tangs and Takashimaya. We were actually quite full already but was hoping to find a place for drinks and talk more. She ordered some Japanese Green Tea and was happy to share with me this 7 pc plate of Salmon Belly Sashimi and she also ordered a Chawanmushi. It was quite fatty and huge piece of Salmon Belly with these 'Pineapple-Cut' :) I've only eaten sotong with pineapple cuts LOL
By the way, it was my first time eating Sashimi in Singapore. The reason is in the 1990s, I had my first Japanese Sushi experience in Japan Tokyo - so since then I don't go for imported sashimi! I only dine in and eat cooked sushi like Tamago or piping hot Japanese Ramen.

This Mother's Day 2022, I gave my 9-year old daughter a treat at Sushiro, Singapore, Salmon Mentai, Salmon Avocado Roll. We went there after a swim at a nearby ActiveSG Sports Swimming Complex, initially to get her a new pair of swimming goggles. This was my first time eating in, with largest kaiten (conveyor-belt) sushi chain from Japan. The past two years was mainly in locked down, and almost all dine-in options were restricted.
We ordered quite a lot for one adult and one child, 2 pax dine-in. The bill came in at about S$46 and just showed that my kid though young, she's really a good eater!
I think the best Salmon belly mentai is at Ichiban Sushi. Here you can see my previous review.
