ALL IN ONE

One of my favorite dessert, Mango Sticky Rice or called Khao Niao Mamuang in Thai. Sweet sticky rice, sweet mango, with creamy savory coconut cream, it's just a really good combination. A must to eat whenever I visited Bangkok, and finally I made my own this weekend, thanks to Mark Wiens for the video about how to make Mango Sticky Rice. This recipe is adapted from his, I like the aroma of pandan in my sticky rice so I added some. Please note that you need to soak the glutinous rice for 5 - 8 hours before steaming. Actually there's another option to cook the glutinous rice in a rice cooker but I've not tried it yet so, I will update this post later. Anyway, you can also change the mango with durian (it really works).  Ingredients: 400 gr glutinous rice 250 ml coconut milk 100 gr sugar or less 1/2 tsp salt pandan leaves sweet mango Coconut Cream Sauce : 200 ml coconut milk 1/2 tsp salt or to taste 1 tsp cornstarch (optional) Watch video for the directions.

Well it's just something I make at home, many times... I love Yakult, a child hood drink that reminds me of the times when I was a little kid. It started from my habit drinking Yakult or any other yogurt drink with some ice, because I found it too sweet to my liking, plus, I love cold drinks. So, one day I made this, I prefer plain jelly as I don't want the flavor to ruin the Yakult flavor, and you sure can add some simple syrup for extra sweetness. Anyway, don't freak out if using colorful jelly... the color will fade, translucent just like plain jelly. I made this one and leave for a day in fridge, and end up with white jelly.  Ingredients: 5 bottles Yakult 2 tsp basil seeds, or chia seeds 1 cup longan or lychee, remove the syrup 1/2 cup plain jelly (unflavored), cut into cubes 3 tbsp simple syrup or to taste 1/2 cup crushed ice Watch the video for the directions

  I'm a big fan of sushi but personally not into sashimi but I love carpaccio and Poke of course, means I love raw salmon with a little or some seasoning. When it comes to poke, I usually go for salmon with plenty of sauce, and pineapple or mango.  So, if you have no idea what is actually Poke? It's Hawaiian by the way, not Japanese though yesss there are a lot of Japanese influences to Hawaiian cuisine.  Keep in mind to ONLY use sushi / sashimi grade fish, salmon and tuna are the most common, if you’re not into raw fish, vegan option, use tofu. Please use clean cutting board. I usually make fresh poke, means it’s served immediately or marinated in fridge for 30 minutes to an hour (don’t forget to wrap the bowl with plastic wrap). The Base : Cooked brown rice / red rice / sushi rice / mix greens  The Sauce : Spicy Mayo (kewpie mayo + sriracha), garlic sauce (garlic dressing) The Toppings : cucumber edamame cabbage pineapple mango lettuce seaweed green onions pickled carrot furi

This chocolate pudding is just sooo good, silky smooth, just make sure to get a good quality chocolate powder. You can also use your favorite chocolate drink powder but you surely want to adjust the sugar measurement. Instead of adding Marie Biscuits on top, I tried to put the marie biscuits crumbs into the vla mixture. Well, of course I also added an extra biscuit on top. I keep this recipe eggless but if you're into rich sauce then add an egg yolk into the vla and add some vanilla or rhum, though it's optional. Ingredients : Chocolate Silky Pudding : 550 ml milk 50 gr sugar 40 gr chocolate powder (unsweetened) 1/2 tsp jelly powder 1/2 tsp agar powder Marie Biscuits Vla : 300 ml milk 1 tbsp corn starch 20 gr sugar 5 pieces Marie Biscuits 1 tsp vanilla extract or rhum for flavor a pinch of salt Follow the directions in video Find me on: Youtube  and  Instagram   @heytheresia  for daily food and travel updates

I love Mexican food!! From taco to burrito, and of course Pico de Gallo! Once I tried making fresh salsa using Kiwi fruit, it was yum. Rather than the classic tomato salsa, I prefer fruit salsa. Mango and pineapple are just amazing for making fresh salsa. I like it as a condiment for taco, burrito, or as a dipping sauce for tortilla chips.  My version of taco, I used chicken as protein, add some cheese, veggies, and topped with fresh fruit salsa. It's just so good, the sweetness of the fruit, unique combination, fresh, and somehow addicting, well you should try and let me know if you like it too. Ingredients: tortilla red cabbage or lettuce cilantro, chopped sour cream melting cheese of your choice The chicken 300 gr chicken fillet 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 tsp chili powder,  1/8 tsp cumin 2 tbsp cooking oil 1 tsp sugar 1/2 tsp salt or to taste Mango Salsa Fresca 250 gr sweet mango, diced 1/2 jalapeno, minced 2 tbsp tomato, diced small 2 tbsp onion, diced small 1 tbsp cilantro, cho

It's good on its own, but there are many things you can make using Oreo. And this is one of them, Oreo Milk Pudding. This recipe calls for tiny amount of agar and jelly powder because I like soft pudding instead of firm, but feel free to add more to your preference. Chill in fridge before serving. I asked Kevin, he said it was a little too sweet for him but my sister said it’s just enough, so.. depending on your taste, you probably want to add less, and adjust later. And about the oreo, it will taste better if you blend it, because soggy cookies is just not my liking but again.. feel free. The most important things are the milk and whipped cream powder to enchance the rich flavor. Oreo Milk Pudding For 3 servings Ingredients: 600 ml milk 80 gr sugar or depending on your preference 2-3 tbsp whipped cream powder or powdered creamer 1/4 tsp jelly powder 1/4 tsp agar powder 5-7 oreo sandwich, blend or crushed more oreo for topping Cook while stirring on low heat.

One Pot Pasta, just because it's easier and I don't need to clean up a lot. I like my pasta al dente but if you prefer tender pasta then add more water into the pot. It's good with mushroom, sausage, bacon, or even corn. Add the cream and cheese on last minute, and fresh herbs, but if using dried herbs then you want to put it along with the milk so it will release more flavor. Ingredients: 150 ml water, or more if you prefer tender pasta 200 ml milk 100 gr pasta, I used spaghetti -11 1-2 cloves garlic, minced 70 gr sweet corn 2 strips bacon, you can use sausage, smoked beef or beef bacon 2 tbsp fresh herbs, chopped, I used basil and parsley (or 1 tsp dried herbs) 80 ml cooking cream 40 gr cheese (sharp cheddar or parmesan or any of your favorite) salt and pepper to taste 1/4 tsp mushroom bouillon or chicken powder 2 tbsp cooking oil Directions : watch the video Find me on: Youtube  and  Instagram   @heytheresia  for daily food and travel updates

I spent many nights watching World Cup 2018, I got nuts, snacks, drinks, but blame this always hungry girl right here, it's like never ending story that craving for spicy / savory dish after sweet treats and it continues.. Based on what I had in fridge that night, I present Mie Goreng Nuclear , my version. So.. it's about an easy yet worth to try and I bet you'll make it over again. By the time I wrote this, I've made this noodle recipe 3 times, plus 1 that I filmed for my Youtube video. How spicy? You decide, I DO NOT recommend using fresh chili as it will change the taste. The key is the prepared sambal terasi , yes the one in jar. I guess it will also work with sambal bajak . If you can handle super spicy food then go for boncabe level 15 (not sponsored), I did. For the topping, I did with meatballs, once I tried with egg but for me I will stick with meatball or maybe sliced sausage / hotdog / spam. You may want to add more seasoning (salt and kecap manis ) when add

Honey Butter Chips or Almonds are very popular in South Korea at least for the past few years. Honestly, honey - butter sounds very interesting to me. This week I watch a video on Youtube about how to make Honey Butter Fried Chicken , it was from one of my favorite Korean Youtuber, Maangchi. So, I decided to make my own. I marinated the chicken with garlic as I prefer more flavorful taste. Double fry is a method that actually works really well for fried chicken.  For the sauce, the original recipe calls for garlic, yes it tasted great but I found that you really can skip the garlic for even richer honey and butter taste. Sugar is great for coating while the honey is just as flavoring, one of the most important part (for me) is to add some of the butter in last minute once you turned off the heat. It will add stronger butter flavor. It's great with chili sauce but I have a dipping sauce recipe that suits this fried chicken, simply mix all the ingredients, and adjust the taste to you

Mungkin dari kebanyakan kamu berpikir kalau Olive Oil identik dengan salad atau buat tumis, selain itu kira-kira bisa dipakai untuk apa aja? Nah, jenis Olive Oil sendiri ada beberapa macam, mulai dari Extra Virgin Olive Oil yang biasanya berwarna kuning kehijauan, Pure Olive Oil, dan Extra Light Olive Oil yang terlihat paling bening jika dibandingkan dengan jenis yang sebelumnya disebutkan. Biasanya Pure Olive Oil dan Extra Light Olive Oil banyak digunakan untuk baking, membuat kue, dan juga untuk menumis karena rasanya yang lebih ringan dan tidak memiliki aroma yang tajam. Yang akan aku bahas kali ini adalah Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO), karena selain banyak manfaatnya jenis ini juga merupakan perasan pertama jadi sangat aman dikonsumsi bahkan untuk bayi. Selain itu, Extra Virgin Olive Oil juga memiki rasa yang khas yang biasa digunakan sebagai perasa atau flavoring untuk makanan. Mulai dari campuran untuk salad dressing, celupan (dipping) untuk roti, EVOO juga banyak digunakan sebag

Gimmari, Deep Fried Seaweed Rolls filled with glass noodles. Chewy glass noodles wrapped with crispy seaweed, batter coated fried food is just always good. Next time if you're making tteokbokki or budae jjigae, this will be a good company, to be dipped into the sauce.  It's always good to be back in South Korea, just to find good places to eat. I wrote about 15 Must Eat Korean Food  if you want to read, well I definitely need to update it. Gimmari is actually pretty easy to find at the street food vendor in Seoul, but here in Jakarta, I haven't found it yet. So, why not making my own Gimmari. It's actually very easy to make, but it's so good. You surely can make your batter from scratch but once I tried using tempura flour, it turned really nice, light, and crispy. Double fry method is very recommended for this recipe. Ingredients: 100 gr glass noodles 30 gr tiny diced carrot 3 tbsp chives, sliced 5-7 sheets nori seaweed 1 tbsp sesame oil 1 tbsp soy sauce 160 gr te

As a big fan of potato and cheese at the same time, the combination of both is just lovely for me. So, few weeks ago I wrote a recipe for Perkedel , Indonesian style mashed potato fritters. This recipe is even better, well because I added cheese into the dough and filled with mozzarella, it's breaded, and deep fried. Can I name it Perkedel Hybrid? Well, it's really a must try recipe anyway.  There's an option to put the garlic in or not, I prefer mine without garlic. But if you want it with garlic, it will taste pretty close to  Perkedel  while I like it cheesy so better to leave the garlic. You can also replace the corned beef with chopped smoked beef. It is important to put the breaded potato balls into the fridge (approximately 15-30 minutes) before frying as you want everything stick together. Deep fry on medium low heat, until golden brown. Ingredients: 4 potatoes, boiled, peeled 50 gr corned beef 1 tbsp flour 50 gr grated cheddar cheese 100 gr mozzarella, cut into cub

How do you make Perkedel ? The recipes may vary, I like mine with boiled potato instead of fried potato as the result will be nice and soft inside, similar to piping hot takoyaki. It's just great with sauteed ground beef, but classic Indonesian version, it's usually made with canned corned beef. There are two version, the one with egg coating (very common) and with the egg mixed into the dough. Sometimes, I make the mixed one, using this recipe but with extra egg so the dough won't be crumbly in frying process. Perkedel is my favorite, it goes well with chicken soup and rice, soto , or just eat it as a snack, yum!! I share this recipe so you can make your own, feel free to add your favorite ingredients, adjust the seasoning, you know, be creative. Lastly, let me know, share it to my social media, happy cooking. Ingredients: 500 gr potato, peeled, boiled 3 stalks green onion, thinly sliced 80 gr corned beef 1 egg 2-3 tbsp flour 3 cloves shallot, puree 5-7 cloves garlic, pure

My version of Risoles, looks like the regular Risoles but I added smoked beef and grated cheese into the ragout. It's actually not difficult but also not easy. Batter recipe is adapted from Cookpad (original recipe, here ). Beaten egg is just right for coating before bread crumbs but, you can also use the leftover batter. Keep the breaded Risoles in freezer for 2-3 hours before frying. For the filling, I added grated cheese for extra flavor, well it was sooo good! Also, I used fresh veggies but you can use frozen, or precooked veggies. I like crunchy texture but it's normally with cooked veggies. The filling is probably too runny when it's hot but it will be thickened once cool down.  Ingredients: 50 gr butter 1/4 cup smoked beef, sliced 1/4 cup onion, minced 1/4 cup all purpose flour (tepung terigu protein sedang) 300 ml milk 1/4 cup grated cheddar cheese 1/4 cup corn, boiled 1/4 cup carrot, boiled 1/4 cup green beans, boiled 1/8 tsp grated nutmeg salt & pepper to tast

A simple and very popular pasta dish, Creamy Mushroom Pasta. Champignon mushroom is the most common, but you can add any mushroom of your choice such as shiitake, shimeji, oyster mushroom, and more. Sometimes, I add bacon, ham, or smoked beef, also some cheese. The most important part is to brown the mushroom before adding the other ingredients. For this recipe I used shiitake which has specific and stronger aroma because I did not put bacon (usually with only champignon). To enhance the flavor, drizzle some truffle oil once it's done, yesss I think I love anything with truffle.  For the pasta, you can use any from short to long pasta, I prefer long pasta. Do not overcook your pasta, follow the directions on the packaging, and drain 1-2 minutes earlier. Personally I like to cook my pasta with the sauce on stove for one to couple minutes, some people prefer to toss the pasta in a pot. Anyway don't rinse your pasta, and always keep some of the pasta water to lighten your sauce (i

Pertama kali dengar  olive oil , yang terlintas pasti berhubungan dengan sehat. Ada banyak jenis minyak yang dihasilkan dari tumbuhan seperti minyak kelapa sawit, minyak kelapa, minyak wijen, minyak jagung, minyak alpukat, minyak almond, minyak kedelai, minyak bunga matahari, maupun margarin. Dari semua jenis minyak tersebut  olive oil  memiliki kandungan  paling tinggi lemak baiknya  (Mono Unsaturated Fat ) paling tinggi dan kaya akan zat anti-oksidan. Maka tidak heran selain digunakan untuk memasak  olive oil  juga di manfaatkan untuk kesehatan dan kecantikan.  Ada beberapa jenis tingkatan  olive oil  dan pengunaannya di dapur juga berbeda-beda. Minggu lalu, aku berkesempatan untuk ikut dalam acara memasak bersama  Filippo Berio , sudah pernah dengar? atau malah sering pakai produknya? Aku pribadi memang sudah sering pakai produk  Filippo Berio  terutama Extra Virgin Olive Oil dan Balsamic Vinegar yesss... karena suka banget salad pakai  balsamic dressing , tinggal ditambah sedikit b
