God's Greatest Gift

I think pandan leaves are one of God's greatest gifts to man!It's like the coolest plant lar! You can use it in savoury dishes or desserts. You can even use it as a 'cupboard freshener' to chase the cockroaches away! Where can you find such stuff man! Chicken rice, nasi lemak, curries, tong sui, red bean soup... you name it... pandan can do it!Maybe cos i'm southeast asain, so i'm really into this fragrant green plant.

Made some pandan muffins on labour day. I used a recipe from Aunt Yochana again. However, i decided to give it a little twist. Instead of putting macadamia nuts into the muffin, i scooped at teaspoon of kaya in between the batter and baked it. Came out really good!! Smelling nice and all. But i tot i could have added some more kaya, nevertheless, i love the pandany and coconuty fragrence. Jeannie, Seng and pig pig had some too!!



They came out with the 'star' shape on top of the muffins cos the kaya broke through as the muffin was rising and created a sort of shape. Really cool.



Emmmmmmmm... will definately try again. with more kaya and coconut milk.
