英式早餐 + 蜂蜜蝶豆玫瑰花茶 Big Breakfast + Honey Butterfly Pea Rose Tea

今天是假日,不用上班,可以睡到自然醒后慢慢地在厨房里转,给自己端上一份丰富的早午餐。

二姐之前给了我一瓶玫瑰花茶,正好来一杯花茶。

准备早餐准备到一半,突然想试弄想了很久的渐变花茶。

蝶豆花茶本身是蓝色,颜色会根据pH值起变化。

加了少许的柠檬汁会让深蓝色变紫色,再多加一些柠檬汁让pH值再降低时,会变粉红色。

做出来的渐变饮料,看着好有趣,跟小朋友一起弄应该会很不错!

香酥蔬菜饼 Crispy Vegetables Fritters/ Cucur Sayur

本身不太爱甜食,却很爱咸食。
马来小吃当中,最爱的就是cucur sayur。
前阵子为了做cucur sayur,特地买了一大颗包菜,结果没做成。

自制豆奶/豆浆 Homemade Soybean Milk

 
想学做豆奶很久了。
在这里点的豆奶,味道总跟家乡喝到的味道不一样,总带粉粉的口感,不然就是有生生的味道。
趁着这段一个人在家的时光,好好地把握me time,想学做什么就做,想试什么新食谱就试。
等老公回来之时,又有新菜色和新花样可以秀一下啦!
呵呵~
原来豆奶并不难做,只是很耗时间。
光给200g的黄豆一颗一颗地去皮,就已经花了40分钟。
好在成品很让人满意,总算喝到家乡的味道了!
好喝的豆奶配上鸡蛋美乃滋墨西哥卷饼,简简单单的早餐,甚是满足。
材料:
黄豆- 200g
清水- 1200ml
班兰叶- 2片
冰糖- 适量

做法:
1. 将黄豆洗净后倒入盖过黄豆约1寸的清水,让其浸泡隔夜。
2. 把水倒掉,给黄豆去皮。
3. 去皮黄豆洗净并沥干后,倒入清水,用搅拌器将黄豆搅打至幼细。
4. 把混合物倒入过滤袋中,用力地把豆奶挤出。(这时候可以将多余的泡沫捞起去掉)
5. 将豆奶倒入一大锅中,加入班兰叶,以中火加热并不断地搅拌直至很多泡沫涌上来。(这是假性沸腾,并不是真的沸腾!)
6. 熄火,继续搅拌至泡沫消掉。
7. 开中火,继续加热和搅拌至豆奶完全沸腾后,转小火继续搅拌约5-8分钟。
8. 加入冰糖,搅拌至冰糖完全溶化即可熄火。

备注:
一定要确保豆奶彻底煮沸,因为生豆奶会导致中毒。
详细解释请看这里,《为什么一定要确保豆奶彻底沸腾》。

Ingredients:
Soybean- 200g
Water- 1200ml
Pandan leaves- 2
Rock sugar- To taste

Method:
1. Rinse soybean, pour in water to cover at least 1" above the level, leave it overnight.
2. Pour off the water and remove the soybean skin.
3. Rinse the soybean and drain off the water again. Pour in water and blend the bean finely.
4. Pour the mixture into a fine mesh bag, press the juice from the soybean. (You may skim the foam off).
5. Pour the soybean milk into a large pot, add in pandan leaves. Heat the soybean milk over medium heat and keep stirring until foam is rising rapidly. (The soybean milk seems to be boiling at this stage but it is actually not!) 
6. Off the heat, continue to stir until the foam subside.
7. Heat the soybean milk over medium heat again, keep stirring until it is truly boiling. Turn to low heat and continue stirring for another 5-8 minutes. 
8. Add in rock sugar to taste and stir until it is fully dissolved. Turn of the heat and ready to serve. 

Notes:
It is necessary to make sure that soybean milk is truly boiled before serving as it will cause food poisoning.
