Banana bread

Tuesday, August 26, 2008

Mudah gilaaa. Tutup mata pun boleh makan. Buat kene bukak mata. I dedicate this to ede yang suka gilaaa pisang. Rasenye la.

Ingredients

3 or 4 ripe bananas - smashed
1/3 cup melted butter/margarine
1 cup sugar (boleh lessen to 3/4 cup)
1 egg - beaten
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking soda
pinch of salt
1 1/2 cup plain flour

Method

This easy peasy recipe xpayah guna mixer. Using a wooden spatula (i used fork je. haha, malas nak cari), masukkan butter dalam smashed banana. Mix mix mix. Then mix in sugar, egg, vanilla. Mix mix mix. Masukkan pulak baking soda and salt. Last sekali masukkan flour. Mix mix mix. Pour into 4x8inch loaf pan. Bake for 1 hour (but mine took 45mins je) at 175C. Then, makan!!!

*actually time tengah buat tu baru perasan we've ran out of eggs. haha. so i added some milk. and ummi added bit of lemon juice. supposedly susu+lemon juice can substitute egg (to avoid it from being mampat). the bread turned out fine and sedap so i suppose betul la kot. haha.

chicken/apple pie

The Crust

Ingredients

2 cups flour
3/4 cup butter/margarine
iced water

Method

The most important thing is to sejukkan all ingredients beforehand. At least 1/2 an hour before. Kalau tak, the crust will be all crumbly bile roll. Ok, kalau dah sejukkan, mix the butter and flour in a bowl. Be careful to use only your fingers (to retain the cold temperature of mixture) and not your palm. Mix well, producing a yellow grainy texture. Then, add water until you get a dough. Tadaa...done. Divide the dough to 2 pieces (one smaller for top, the other bigger for bottom part) and store in the fridge for approx. half an hour.

The Filling

*Actually, you can put wtv you want. These are 2 suggestions:

Chicken

cubed potatoes - rebus-ed beforehand
cubed or sliced chicken fillets - rebus-ed beforehand
instant soup - penambah rasa
pepper - lots of em
wtv you want

Apple

green apple - cored, skinned, sliced
1/2 cup sugar - or less if you use red apple
1/2 cup flour - to thicken the filling
cinnamon - but i hate it so xpernah letak

The Combining of Both

Roll the dough as thin and as big as fitting to your pie pan. Fill it up with selected filling. Roll the top dough, put it on top. Use a fork to trim the sides. Make some holes on top using the fork. Use some egg-yolk for a golden effect. Bake for approx 20mins (or until golden) at 175C.

Yeahh.
