A memorable night indeed! 16th April at Mandarin Orchard.
President S R Nathan and all well known chefs - Chef Bob, Chef Amri, Siti Mastura, Madam Mumtaj and many others, also representatives from Turkish Embassy, Indonesian Embassy, Thailand Embassy and Egypt Embassy were there to celebrate LBKM's 45th Anniversary. In conjuction with their anniversary and as a donation drive, they launched a cookbook 'Lazatnya...Recipes of Love', with Mami Asmah Laili being the consultant for the book.
There are over 70 recipes, including one from President's Istana.
At the dinner, we were served Fried Tom Yam Chicken, a recipe from the Istana, as one of the course. I simply loved it! It was crispy, with the spicy flavour of Tom Yam.
Being once an LBKM scholar, it's time I give back. This was the happiest moment in my baking life to be able to contribute to the book and to be part of the celebration.
I had four of my best recipes in the book.
Orange and Lime Custard Cake
- the chiffon sponge was taught at my Chiffon Cake Class, 3 weeks ago.But for the book, I had adorned it with Orange and Lime Custard. Refreshing!
Pastri Serunding Ayam & Cheese
- my favourite recipe in the book.
Cranberry Chocolate Cakelet
- a taste-alike of my favourite coffee bean cake
Chocolate Walnut Tarlets
For those who will be attending my classes this week, the books will be available for sale.
InsyaAllah, Mami Asmah Laili will be there to autograph the books. Each book is $30 each.
