🍮 Cream Caramel Pudding/Flan

Very easy to make only if it's made correctly ❤
Be super-careful if you're making the hot caramel topping for this pudding or flan!! Don't get distracted, any carelessness can lead to serious injuries ⚠️ Use a silver wok to make the hot caramel to prevent yourselves from any additional injuries. Take further care of yourselves while pouring this hot caramel on to the mould. Handle both the wok and the hot mould with oven-mittens before chilling in the fridge.
All you need are a gas/electric stove, an electric hand-held mixer, a metal mould, a cooling rack, a giant pot to steam this dessert, some aluminum foil to cover the dessert while it's steaming, a lid to cover the pot and a heavy brick to hold it all in place.
It shouldn't take that long to steam. Just, take a fork/toothpick/skewer and poke it in the center. If it comes clean, then you'll know it's ready! 😋
I'm often used to making this dessert with store-bought vanilla ice cream as a cheats way of bringing it to life but this time, I decided to use sweetened condensed milk instead since... we haven't had any ice cream in the fridge due to the lockdown caused by this virus pandemic 😷
Chill this sweet concoction in the fridge. Desserts like these taste better when they're cold ❄

To make this pudding or flan come to life, make the caramel topping first. Place 3 to 4 teaspoons of sugar on a silver wok and stir it with a metal spoon till the sugar turns into a reddish tint. Once the sugar dissolves and gets that desired hue, splash a bit of water to loosen the stickiness. At this stage, please be careful and look after yourself while you continue to stir the hot caramel. Any type of carelessness or distraction while making this can lead to serious injuries!

Pour the caramel in the metal mould. Once again... please be very careful while pouring it!!! Wear your oven-mittens and let this chill in the fridge. Now, start making the main body for the pudding/flan.

Whisk 4 eggs (egg replacer powder mixed with water) and sweetened condensed milk (choose a plant-based version instead of the ones that come from the dairy) till they come together. Pour the boiled milk (plant-based; dairy-free) in a small steady stream and gradually, add the vanilla till they're all combined into a thick, velvety mixture.

Give the pudding or flan batter 1 final stir with a metal spoon. Bring out the metal mould with the set caramel topping from the fridge. Strain it through a sieve to trap any air bubbles. If you don't do that, your dessert could end up having large holes like Swiss cheese and you obviously don't want that!

Cover the filled mould with aluminum foil, place it inside the giant steaming metal pot pre-filled half the way with water with a metal rack. If you're using a gas stove, the flame should be on medium heat and if you're using electric stove, adjust your temperature to medium... we don't want the pudding/flan to be neither undercooked with a low flame nor overcooked with a high flame. After everything's set, cover the steamer with a metal lid and put a brick on the top to hold it in place.

My cream caramel/flan took approximately 2 hours 15 minutes to cook, even though it should normally take 2 hours 30 minutes to be done perfectly. I've chilled mine in the fridge for 48 hours before bringing it out to cut a tiny piece of it.

Decorate this beauty with elegant toppings such as red maraschino cherries, tinned cocktail fruit, whipped cream, chocolate/strawberry syrup and/or rainbow sprinkles. But because of the lockdown caused by the covid-19 pandemic, the only topping I had in the fridge at the moment were these red rubies, otherwise known as the red maraschino cherries by Hosen. They are often sold in glass jars and soaked in syrup. How did the pudding/flan taste? It was... deeeelicious ! 😍🍮❤

Mini Soufflé Pancakes 🥞❤
My very first attempt at making these and I think I nailed it 👌🏻 The recipe is super-easy and once you start making these for the first time, you'll want to make these over and over again 😋 an electric hand-held mixer with the attachments, a frying pan, a metal spatula and a stove (gas or electric) are all you need.To make this recipe cruelty-free, substitute all the non-vegetarian ingredients with it's plant-based counterparts 🌱#breakfastgoals 🥞🥃To make these pancakes even more special, my suggestion would be, to serve this with your favorite fruit(s) or fruit salad and a glass of any fruit juice made from your favorite fruit(s). Drizzle a bit of maple syrup or chocolate syrup on it, or sandwich it with some whipped cream and nutella... the choices are endless! This recipe is 100% customizable no matter how you decide to make it or what you choose to top it off with. If you need to make a bigger amount of this, simply double or triple the amount of ingredients. Afsara Mehrin -
🎤🎹 Keyboard Cake 🎵🎈
A birthday cake I made for the (fictional) vocalist/keyboardist of the virtual band, Gorillaz waaaay back in 2016. Thought about sharing the recipe here. It was his (2-D's) 'supposedly' birthday yesterday and this keyboard cake, which is chocolate both inside and out was one of the best birthday cakes I've ever made for him. He's my favorite Gorillaz character and I've had this heavy crush on him ever since I first saw him and his (fictional) bandmates on TV as a 9 year old girl 19 years back!!Due to ingredient shortages at home because of the lockdown caused by the ongoing covid-19 outbreak, fearing the virus, I couldn't run down to the store to get my usual cake supplies and bake him any new birthday cake this year. It's sad but sharing an old recipe won't hurt anybody, I suppose.I divided the recipe and baked this cake separately in 2 square tins since I didn't have any rectangular tin with me at the time. If you have a rectangular tin, bake the full recipe in one go! If you're in a hurry, you can bake this in the microwave for 04:00 minutes like the way I did. If you're using the usual electric oven, remember to pre-heat your oven first. Afsara Mehrin -

Red Velvet Heart Cake ❤🍰
A Valentine's Day special... made yesterday for Valentine's Day this year. #valentinesday2020It doesn't need to be 100% perfect but as long as you stick to the recipe, it'll give you outstanding results. Like all my other cakes, this cake was baked in the microwave because, I have no electric oven at home... unfortunately. If you want to use electric oven with right temperature settings and a bundle of parchment papers, go ahead and feel free to.I divided this recipe into 2 halves or batches and baked them separately. The first batch of cake batter was baked on a square-shaped pan and the second batch was baked on a round pan and also... there's an easy hack to shape this cake into a heart. No need to cut with a paper template, no need to bake it on a heart-shaped pan. Just, turn the square into a diamond position, cut the round cake into semi-circles and attached those on the diamond-shaped cake and that is it... an easy heart cake! Just make sure that both the cakes are even and in proportion.Normally, cream cheese frosting or cream cheese buttercream is used for this cake but here, I decided to use the 3-ingredient American buttercream instead. If you want to use cream cheese, I recommend a bar of Kraft's Philadelphia but this part is entirely optional.I'm an amateur cook, not a professional and I bake to express creativity and for fun.

Cathedral window
This is a very popular dessert item of South East Asia, especially in Philippines. They use coconut milk and pineapple juice. But I have improvised it with evaporated milk, cream and condensed milk. Usually many colors of jello is used, but considering green and red theme of Christmas, I have used only green and red color jello. It is called Cathedral Window because it looks beautiful like multicolored glass windows of the cathedral.#Holiday C Naseem A -

Curry Mee(Best Fish Curry Ever)
In this recipe I share my 'Secret' Fish Curry.Many people in Bangladesh love prawns, if you peel them, never discard the shells and heads. Keep them in the freezer and make this gorgeous dish when you feel like making something different.The chilly paste is also very versatile and can be used as a condiment to other dishes.Tofu is hard to find in BD as I know, feel free to replace it with more fish or some veggies.

Shooters Sandwich. Pressed Steak and Mushroom Sandwich with 8 layers. Ultimate Steak Sandwich
The concept of this sandwich is to put cooked steak and mushrooms inside a hollowed out loaf of bread then press it down with weights. Weights are used to press down on the sandwich, which causes all the juice from meat and other toppings to soak into the bread. Shooter’s sandwich originated in England during the Edwardian era. It was created so that hunters could easily carry lunch with them, hence I guess the name Shooter’s sandwich. My version has 8 layers of different type of toppings. I guess I can call it evolution of food 😊. Kiron Ahsan -
