HOw to make TEMPE goreng

HAve you been to Malaysia or Indonesia??? If yes, you might encounter this special food from these constituents which is called TEMPE. Tempe is made from soya beans. It needs to be fermented for several days until each of soya beans are packed together till it become like a cake. You also can call tempe as soya bean cake.

So I would like to share to you guys how to make 'tempe-goreng' which means Fried Tempe. Its a basic requirement to use tumeric powder for this recipe. So you need tumeric powder in this recipe.

You need:

1) Soya bean cake (tempe). Get this at Asian Market shop in Dublin. It comes in rectangle shape. Only cost around 2.99 euro. Cut it into slices as shown in the picture

2) Tumeric Powder (1 teaspoon)

3) Salt (1-3 pinches)

4) Water (3-4 tablespoons)

5) Cooking oil

Steps you have to follow:

1) Heat cooking oil in a deep fryer or saucepan

2) Mix tumeric powder, salt and water.

3) Put one or two slices of tempe into tumeric mixture. Make sure tempe is coated well with tumeric.

4) Fry it till it become golden colour/crispy.

5) Serve it with dark chili sauce (find this recipe in my previous entry) or you can eat it just like that.

Its so tasty!! trust me....suitable for vegetarians/vegans as well.....

Tempe/Tempeh...Its the same...

Up side down...sorry...

Cut it like this

Picture not in correct manner...this is tumeric mixture..

Put tempe into tumeric mixture one by one...until well soaked...

I dont have deep fryer...saucepan will do....

Frying...

Nearly done....you can see its already become golden crispy!!

Thats it!!

Some dark chili sauce to serve with...

Tada...its ready!!! Enjoy!!!

Hallaluya!!! I am BACK!!!!

MACARONS

Its been like nearly 2 months I do not update anything in here........what had happened???

......WELL.....I do not want to say this .....because...this is the most famous excuse people will make to say they are REALLY have no time for other stuff including their hobby.....WELL....I think you guys can guess what is the OBVIOUS reason.......I tell you now....secretly.....SHIsHhhh......"I have Exam coming up"......

Unfortunately I had cancelled my exam last Thursday due to health problem....I might share this sad story in another entry but depends on my mood.....even though its a sad story at least I have 2 weeks holiday!!!! hahahaha......so why not doing some interesting stuff that not require strenuous energy.....for example COOKING.....i like.....

I have been dreaming to bake macarons - French Posh Cookies- for ages.....seriously....whenever I visit Dublin, Laduree at Brown Thomas is my fav spot to get this food. Please read my previous entry about this cookies at Laduree and how much it cost per cookie....damn expensive!!! So all this while...I've been searching for its secret recipe - the magic techniques to make this delicious cookie in the world- in the internet, at book stores nearby...but could not find it until I went to Dublin again. Finally found this cute little Macarons recipe book at Eason.

So yesterday I went to Tesco to buy the important ingredients, some cooking tools ie mixer, cooling rack, spatula etc....I started to make the buttercream in vanilla flavour. Very challenging for me....people spend 1 hour to make it but I spend more than 3 hours..hahaha....I made a mistake so had to fix it......when buttercream done...thats it....no more cooking....went straight to bed...continue the next day for its shells....

So the tomorrow is actually today......there is no other food colouring paste except for green....my vanilla macarons is green colour which myself cannot help at all.....

For me the most difficult technique is pipping the dough on top of baking sheet....is like once the tip head down, its pouring uncontrollable thats makes the small circle became larger like an elephant!!!! Thank God on the third round I know how to manage the pipping and YESS I make many small circles..BUT....its not round circles...its small little island with irregular surround border.....hahaha....

NOt to mention about the how the cookies look like after baking......lots of cracks/bumps on top of it...hihihi....

The good side about "my 1st time" macarons is... the taste is exquisite.....its so delicious that I cannot believe it is actually taste similar to Laduree's.... The crunchiness and softness are just perfect....i like the green colour when its become crunchy cookie and its a perfect combo with the cream colour of vanilla buttercream!!!!!

So ENjoy the pictures...thats all I have for today...GTG...p/s: I am starving right now...my lunch was missing because too busy preparing these cookies..have to go to tesco right now hunting for comfort food!!!!
