mummy had left over syrup from last year...
mix in oil & flour
till the ladle can stand on it's ownthe no fun part is where you gotta let it set for 5 hours! such a long time... what to do... then mummy comes up with a torture plan :( as usual...
evil mummy asked me to peel the garlic!
poor me, suffer...
while she does THIS!
after 5 hours, the dough is done.
dust the mold, whatever shape you like.
my hands were too oily to take pics... the pastry type.
pretty :-)
for the filling type, we need melon seeds.
rub it into the lotus paste & add oil too :-)
roll into balls... stuff in egg yolk...
wrap with skin & shape in mold. slam the mold to get it out.
so cute!
bake for a while & glaze & bake & glaze & bake....
no too long or it'll lose shape. let it cool & keep for a day.
today, the mooncake is ready to be eaten :-).JPG)

well, the ready made paste can be bought from AMIPLUS @ bukit beruang. same row as the church beside BB corner... they have all the baking essentials. paste only sold during mooncake season - all sort of flavours!
