Kitchen Trick #1: Keeping Water from Boiling Over

My sister showed me this last year and I was like, "Whatttt?!? No Way!"

Fritters or cucur are popular in Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei normally fried in hot oil serve during breakfast or tea time like this Tempeh Fritters/Cucur Tempeh. With just a basic ingredients of flour, water and salt, you can make them sweet or savory. Other variations include prawn,chicken or meat to the batter. For vegetarian omit the eggs and include veggies like carrot, bean sprout, potato, tofu and many more. Mine use tempeh (fermented soya bean cake) instead, Use self rising flour if you have but omit the baking powder. Omit chili powder or reduce it according to your preference. When frying the T empeh Fritters/Cucur Tempeh , use a medium heat so it doesn't turn brown fast but inside still uncooked. Also do not crowd the pan, give room for you to turn them if one side turns golden. Serve with chili or tomato sauce but I prefer to eat them as it is.

Serve this fresh homemade Chocolate Marble Quick Bread that was a breeze to make using a whisk. Quick bread eliminates multiple steps, kneading and waiting for dough to rise. With minimal efforts, we are rewarded with a gorgeous loaf/ Have reduced the sugar a bit since I intend to ice the cake later. Am so glad that this Chocolate Marble Quick Bread turned out just right, the way I want it. You can sub yogurt with sour cream if you have but this MUNDELLA Premium Natural Yogurt I used did a great job. It is a perfect tea companion and swirls of vanilla and chocolate batter produce impressively beautiful treat.
