I grew up eating these “Chinese churros”- crispy, soft, savory all in one AND I just learnt the history behind it: Some villagers back then, fed up with the treacherous Qin Hui and his wife who schemed to kill Yue Fei, the loyal General, shaped the dough into a pair and fried it to vent their anger.

I used to just throw the leftovers but I started thinking: how can I make them taste good even after a night in the fridge?

The looks from my colleagues and laughs from my teammate while I was experimenting 😂

P.S. I think this trend came from LRB.

HK style Banana Cake
港式香蕉蛋糕

🍌 bread is a classic, but have you tried the banana cake from the local bakeries in Hong Kong? The texture is a mix between banana bread and chiffon cake - lighter and nostalgic (for me cuz it was my fav after-school treat). I think it’s healthier too! Might just be the easiest low-sugar recipe for banana cake I know haha

Focaccia dough Chinese Scallion Pancake
佛卡夏包版蔥油餅

I’m not a fan of coriander, but scallions? I’m obsessed! 🥰 I love them in almost any savory dish. Scallion pancakes are super popular in many regions of China, so I decided to test this lazy, foolproof version out by mixing homemade scallion oil into my focaccia dough and it turned out amazing!
It’s so crunchy on the outside, soft and slightly chewy on the inside, and incredibly fragrant.

我唔係好接受到芫荽嘅味,,但我超級鍾意蔥!😍 我幾乎可以喺任何咸嘅食物入面都加蔥。蔥油餅喺中國好多地方都好受歡迎,所以我決定輕鬆啲,將自家製蔥油加落佛卡夏麵包麵團入面,結果幾似!
外脆內軟,仲有少少嚼勁,香噴噴!😗

Chicken Salad Bagel Sandwich
手撕雞沙律貝果三文治

Bringing back memories with this Chicken Salad Bagel Sandwich! 🥯 Growing up, my helper and Grandma filled my plate with comforting meals, and this creamy, meaty yet light chicken salad is one of my favorites. I love using a bagel for that perfect chewy crunch that contrasts with the soft, tender chicken. 😋

我細個時候,工人同婆婆成日煮啲簡單又貼心嘅嘢食,呢個 creamy、肉味十足但又輕盈嘅雞沙律就係我最鐘意之一。我用貝果嚟做,咬下去有啲咬口,配合軟綿綿嘅雞沙律,懷舊又好味 ❤️

Ube Waffle with maple syrup and blueberries 🧇💟
參薯窩夫配楓葉糖漿同藍莓

I modified a copycat recipe of the famous mammy pancakes but added extra glutinous rice flour for that perfect balance of chewiness and cakey goodness! You can totally customize it - go all mochiko (glutinous rice flour) or stick with cake flour if you prefer 😂 The ube adds a delicious creamy, earthy vanilla flavor, and it’s sooo good!! plus, it’s low in sugar 😋

我試咗整媽咪雞蛋仔嘅食譜,但加咗額外嘅糯米粉,咁就可以平衡到煙靭同蛋糕感!你可以根據自己嘅喜好調整,全部用糯米粉或者用麵粉都得 🤪 加咗參薯有一種好正嘅奶香土味香,好好食仲低糖添!

Here’s what I used (makes 3 waffles):
* 2 eggs
* 56g sugar
* 160g buttermilk (highly recommended, but full-fat milk works too)
* 110g cake flour
* 40g tapioca starch
* 20g glutinous rice flour
* 2g baking powder
* 0.5 tsp vanilla essence or 1 tsp ube extract

Honey Calamansi Cheesecake 🐝💛
檸蜜芝士蛋糕

When I go to authentic cha chaan tengs, I usually order Iced Lemon Honey water instead of milk tea 🍋✨ So, I created a cheesecake inspired it; this low-sugar roasted honey cheesecake is topped with zesty calamansi curd. It might not be my best cheesecake yet, but it’s definitely a healthier option!

Hibiscus tea biscuits
洛神花茶曲奇餅

I love tangy floral flavors like elderflower and hibiscus! So I made some tea biscuits since hibiscus is both Chinese and Filipino 😯 These buttery, berry-like cookies turned out adorable with cute cartoon designs! 🍪🌸

Here’s the recipe:

Hibiscus Dough
- 113 g unsalted butter, room temperature
- 55 g powdered sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 120 g all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp hibiscus powder
- 1/4 tsp salt

Hibiscus Tea Dough
- 113 g unsalted butter, room temperature
- 55 g powdered sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 120 g all-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 Tazo hibiscus tea bags

For the Hibiscus Dough:
1. In the bowl of a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, cream together the butter and powdered sugar on medium speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Add in the vanilla.
2. In a small bowl, combine the flour, hibiscus powder, and salt.
3. Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture and mix on low speed until just combined, about 45 seconds to 1 minute. Set the hibiscus dough aside.

For the Hibiscus Tea Dough:
1. Repeat the creaming process with butter and powdered sugar, then add the vanilla.
2. Mix the flour and salt in a small bowl.
3. Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture and mix on low until just combined, about 45 seconds to 1 minute. Fold in the loose hibiscus tea leaves into one portion of the dough.

Assembly:
1. Take small portions (about 2 tablespoons) of each dough and place them next to each other on a large piece of parchment paper, creating a mosaic effect.
2. Place a second piece of parchment on top and gently flatten with your hands.
3. Using a rolling pin, roll out the dough to 1/4-inch thickness.
4. Cut out shapes using cookie cutters of your choice. (Tip: Chill the cutouts in the freezer for 15-20 minutes to help them retain their shape while baking)
5. While the cookies are chilling, preheat the oven to 175°C.
6. Bake the cookies until golden brown around the edges, about 11-13 minutes.

Bistek Yoshinoya Gyudon 🇵🇭🇯🇵
菲式酸牛排吉野家牛肉丼

Growing up, I loved Bistek Tagalog - tender sirloin in a tangy calamansi soy sauce mix. It’s the perfect hearty dish with rice, but it usually takes ages to cook. On weekdays, I can only afford 30 minutes to cook and the idea for a quick gyudon-style twist popped into my mind! No stewing needed, and it tastes just like the real thing, in a fraction of the time. 😋

Here’s what I used for my Bistek:
- 400g wagyu hot pot beef slices
- 3 tbsp Kikkoman soy sauce
- 1 tbsp dark soy sauce
- 8 pcs calamansi
- 1.5 tsp ground pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 pc onion/red onion, sliced into rings
- 1 tbsp mirin
- 180g water
- A pinch of salt
- Some oil

How I made it in one pan:
1. Sauté the onion rings in some oil until golden brown.
2. Pour in all the liquid ingredients and let it simmer for about 3-4 minutes.
3. Add the beef slices, making sure to separate them, then sprinkle with pepper and garlic powder. Cook for 15-20 minutes until tender.
4. Season with a pinch of salt, mix, and let the sauce reduce.
5. Serve it over rice with some veggies… so satisfying!

For a simple side of roasted green beans:
Just toss some haricot verts with olive oil and salt, bake at 200°C for 15 minutes, and finish with a sprinkle of sesame seeds.

奧利奧布朗尼巴斯克芝士蛋糕

Back in high school, I always ordered McCafe’s brownie-based Oreo cheesecake so, I decided to elevate it by making it less sweet and molten. Voila! It’s so good and brings back all the nostalgia 🥰 Think chocolate lava cake meets Oreo cheesecake, and it’s super easy to whip up. Hehe

我中學嘅時候,超級鍾意McCafe個布朗尼Oreo芝士蛋糕所以我決定自己嘗試整,減少甜度同埋加埋融心,成功咗!好好味又充滿回憶🤭 想像下心太軟加Oreo芝士蛋糕,唔難整!
