Cherry Pie

This is my super easy Cherry pie. It is delicious and a crowd pleaser.
All I used was ready made frozen pie crust. Thaw it for about 15 minutes at room temperature.

A can of cherry pie filling. Wisk this with a dash of vanilla essence.

Brush the top crust with egg wash. I use frozen roti canai that I have thawed for the top. Cut it into wedges. and line it up at the top of the cherry filling. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes at 325F or until crust brown.
Enjoy!

Beef Rendang Pie - Spicy Beef Pie

On the Syawal day, Gertrude came to visit me at my house. She brought for me the mould to make lattice on pie crust. I was so excited to use the lattice mould. First thing I did was to thaw my Raya meal such as lemang(pressed glutinous rice), beef rendang and serunding kelapa (spicy coconut flakes) that I freeze all these while. I also thawed 3 pieces of frozen paratha or roti canai. You can buy this frozen and uncooked paratha at an Indian store or Viatnamese store. My favorite brand is Kawanku.
After everything had thawed in room temperature, I laid one piece of paratha in round tin foil plate. Then I layer it with the pressed glutinous rice. Next I sprinkle the spicy coconut. Then I put in the beef rendang. Lastly, I top this delicious raya left over pie with one piece of paratha. I try to stretch the paratha to cover the foil plate. Then I use the lattice mould on the last piece of the paratha.
I bake this pie at 350F for about 40 minutes or until paratha turn brown.
This pie is so delicious. Even honey finish half of this pie. I was surprise he likes the lemang. I guess when it is disguised under the beef rendang and the spicy coconut flakes, the lemang taste so much better to him.

Lempeng (Malaysian pancake)


I was thinking of making roti paratha tampal (with egg) but could not find the kawanku paratha in my freezer. Since the okra curry already cooked, so, I substitute the paratha (roti canai) with Malaysian pancake (lempeng).
Ingredients for the pancake:
1 cup flour
1 1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon salt
Mix batter well. In nonstick pan, heat 1 tablespoon cooking oil on medium heat. Pour in the batter like you would make a pancake. Turn one time each side. This batter will make about 3 pancake. Serve warm with gravy.
For the okra curry:
I used the instant curry paste AA1 brand given by Beachlover. Heat it up with 1/2 cup of water , 10 Okra and a pinch of sugar. Yummy!
