CARAMEL PUDDING


 

Ingridients:

For the caramel

  • 225 grams granulated sugar 
  • 01 cup hot water or about 100-200 ml 

For the pudding

  • 900 ml milk
  • 12 egg yolks
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 dash vanilla essence   

Method

  • Heat the sugar in a pot (do not add any water or oil or what so ever, just the sugar). Place it over low heat until brown and slowly add hot water (half a cup, until sugar is dissolve but not too watery). Place it aside.
  • Warm up the milk. Make sure its not too hot. Put in a pinch of salt and 4 table spoon of granulated fine sugar. Make sure sugar dissolve. Place it aside.
  • Beat 12 egg yolks until smooth and put in a dash (1 tea spoon) of Vanilla Essence. Mix your egg yolks with the milk.
  • Place the caramel at the bottom of your bowls. Then place the mixture of the milk and egg yolks slowly.
  • Prepare a tray with little bit of water and place you bowls in  the tray. Bake for about 30-40minutes in 150C. (You also may steam your caramel puddings with a steamer but I prefer to bake them). :)
PS: for extra flavor as Pandan or chocolate...just add pandan pasta or chocolate/moccachino pasta into the mixture.

Ontbijtkoek



Brief information about Ontbijtkoek.(source: wikipedia)

An ontbijtkoek (literally translated breakfast cake) or peperkoek is a Dutch-Belgian spiced cake. Rye is its most important ingredient, coloring the cake a light brown. It is often spiced with cloves, cinnamon, ginger, succade and nutmeg. Several parts of the Netherlands have their own local recipe, of which the most famous is "Oudewijvenkoek" (old wives' cake) which is mostly eaten in the northern regions, and is flavored with aniseed. Ontbijtkoek is originally served at breakfast with a thick layer of butter on top, as a replacement for bread. However due to its sweet taste it is also served as a snack.

And here's the recipe (in Bahasa Indonesia)
Bahan:
Telur 06kuning+03putih
gula palem 50gram
gula jawa 100gram (saya kurangin jadi 85, tergantung level manis masing2 gula yah)

bumbu lapis/spekoek 1sdt
TBM 1sdt
vanili bubuk/cair 1/2 sdt
Kenari cincang 100gram
Rhum 1sdt (optional..but a must for myself :) 

Cara Membuat:
  1. Kocok telur, gula, TBM, vanili sampai putih kental dan naik.
  2. Masukkan campuran terigu+bumbu lapis/spekoek, aduk rata dg spatula.
  3. Masukkan mentega/margarine leleh, aduk rata lagi dengan spatula.
  4. Masukkan 3/4 kenari cincang kedalam adonan, aduk rata lagi
  5. Tuang adonan ke dalam loyang tulban D24cm yg sudah diolesi margarin dan taburi atasnya dengan sisa kenari cincang tadi.
  6. Panggang di oven panas dengan suhu 180C selama 30-40menit atau sampai kue kuning kecoklatan/matang.
  7. Keluarkan dari oven, tunggu sampai kue agak dingin lalu keluarkan dari loyang.
