Green Tea and Orange Snowkin Mooncake

After trial and error on snowkin mooncake, i made it finally but the moulding part still need more improvement. I think either the green tea skin was too thin or maybe the way i hold the snowkin not gentle enough. But at least this time can see the sheep pattern on orange mooncake :OP unlike from my previous post can't see the pattern at all. Or maybe i should not use the jelly mould, that's why the skin are unstable when it taken out. 

The Green Tea snowkin mooncake's recipe was adapted from Nasilemaklover's blog. The orange one i replaced the water to fresh orange juice. Initially, i thought of buying lotus paste for filling but out of stock. I  tried out Charcoal Bamboo Lotus paste. This time i added egg yolk into Charcoal Bamboo Lotus for the filling..Not bad though.

Mooncakes

I have seen many bloggers making a nice and colourful mooncake for this coming Mooncake Festival.
For newbies like me, i just know how to make Shanghai mooncake which is more easier. But my snow skin mooncake still need more improvement.

Stewed pork belly with dry chillies

I usually cooked this stewed pork belly few hours early for the dinner so i don't have to rush when comes to dinner time. I cooked this in the afternoon for dinner on last sunday before i attend the yoga class. This is easy for me as after my class over, i just need to prepare dinner for kids with ready cooked rice and stewed pork.

Sorry for the blur vision as it was snapped by handphone. I think this is one of the Hakka recipe. The sources i got it from my friend few years back. She gave me a rough idea how to prepare this dish. After few attempts my improvement is getting better. I dont have the proper recipe, i just assume the amount of soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar and dark soy sauce. If i feed my kids with this dish i will usually scoop some of the porks and gravy in different bowl as they can't eat spicy. Lastly, iwill add the dry chillies and cooked for a while.
