Roti Jala (Net Bread)

I made roti jala yesterday for breakfast. It is a popular Malay snack that is served with curry. Here are the ingredients for roti jala:

Ingredients:

350g plain flour

25 g cooking oil

1 egg

1 tsp turmeric powder

2 tsp salt

200g coconut milk

400g water

25 g cooking oil

Methods:

Place plain flour, cooking oil, egg, turmeric, salt, coconut milk and water in a mixing bowl and blitz it for 2 minutes at speed 4. If you do not have a thermomix, you can use any kitchen food processor.

Next transfer the mixture into a roti jala dispenser bottle which comes with spouts.

Turn on the stove and place a non-stick frying pan over a medium fire. Grease the pan lightly.

Squeeze the roti jala dispenser bottle slightly above the frying pan and moved it in an irregular pattern in a circular motion.

Cook the roti jala on both sides until it is golden brown. Roll them to form a cylinder. It is best to eat them warm with chicken curry.

Buffalo Smart Cooker makes fluffy delicious brown rice. It has a brown rice function. Therefore, you do not need to soak your brown rice before cooking. I normally use 3 cups of brown rice with 4 cups of water. It takes about 75 minutes to cook the brown rice.

Fried Egg in Philips XL Airfryer

I have decided to have a healthy diet but  I do love my fried food. Therefore, I decided to purchase the  Philips XL Airfyer that uses little oil or no oil at all. Now even my son who is 8  years old knows how to fry a fried egg effortlessly. All he needs is to crack an egg into a bowl and whisk it. Then, sprinkle a dash of salt and add 1/2 tablespoon of milk into the egg mixture.  Pour the egg mixture into an oiled baking pan and place the baking pan in the airfryer. Next, set the temperature of the airfryer at 200  degrees Celcius and cook for 9 minutes or until the fried eggs are well-cooked in the middle and it is golden brown.
