Alaska Cheese Fries Melt

Difficulty: Very Easy
Time: 15min
Number of servings: 8

Ingredients:
8 slices natural cheese
1/2 avocado
8 slices smoked salmon
* flour
* beaten egg
* Panko (bread crumbs)
vegetable oil for frying
lemon wedge *optional

Directions:
1. Slice avocado widthwise into 8 slices.
2. Place a slice of smoked salmon so that the length of it is running flat and vertically towards you. Place the sliced avocado and natural cheese on the end of the smoked salmon close to you and start rolling (you don't have to wrap them securely because you are going to deep fry for just a few seconds).
3. Flour the salmon rolls lightly, dip in beaten egg, then coat with Panko. Use one hand to coat flour and Panko, and use the other to dip in egg to keep one of your hands dry.
4. Deep fry them for a few seconds in oil at 190C (374F) until golden brown. Remove them from the oil before the cheese melts and oozes out.
5. Serve with lemon wedge if you like.

National (Panasonic) Bistro NE-SS30A: Microwave Steam Oven

Everybody asks me what kind of high-tech oven I use, but it is very old. I think I won this oven at a recipe contest more than 7 years ago.

National (now Panasonic) Bistro NE-SS30A is a microwave oven with steam cooking. Unfortunately, I seldom use the steam function because it takes too much time cooking with steam, while it cuts calories.



Anyways, today, my new microwave steam oven Panasonic Bistro NE-R3500 arrived!!!
I heard it cooks much faster with time saving functions. Also, you can operate it with smartphone (android). Sounds cool :D I own iPhone, though...

And yes! The same lady talks♥

I hope to use it in my video someday soon :)
Of course, I miss my old oven... it is very clean and doing fine, so I am thinking of giving it to my sister...



The smaller box is a rice cooker. I know it's my third one... haha

FYI: Takoyaki is a popular Japanese dumpling made of batter, diced octopus, tenkasu (tempura scraps), beni shoga (red pickled ginger), and aonegi (green onion), topped with okonomiyaki sauce, mayonnaise, aonori (green laver), and katsuobushi (bonito flakes).

Takoyaki Cake Pops

Difficulty: Easy
Time: 20min + baking & cooling & decorating time
Number of servings: 24 cake pops

Note:
1cup = 250ml or 250cc

Ingredients:
((Cake Pops))
3/4 cup white chocolate chips (or 3 bars Meiji White Chocolate)
1/2 cup (100g=3.5oz.) butter
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs
3/4 cup flour (or 3/4 cup cake flour + 1 tsp. baking powder)
1/4 tsp. salt
((Decoration))
HERSHEY'S Chocolate Syrup
Morinaga Rennyu (condensed milk)
matcha green tea powder
goji berries (Chinese wolfberries)

Directions:
((Cake Pops))
1. Preheat the oven to 170C (338F). Grease and flour pan.
2. In medium saucepan, over low heat, melt white chocolate chips (or 3 bars Meiji White Chocolate) and butter together. (Stop the heat when the butter starts to melt and mix with residual heat with patience. Otherwise the mixture will separate into a solid blob and an oily part.) Stir until smooth. Then pour into medium bowl.
3. Add sugar and mix until blended. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
4. Sift in flour and salt. Stir until blended.
5. Spoon the batter into bottom half of pan (without holes) filling each well so it mounds over the top of the pan. (Norpro 1 tbsp. scoop works perfect.) (or, transfer the batter to a pastry bag and pipe it onto the pan.)
6. Place top half of pan on top and secure with keys. Bake for 15-18 minutes, until toothpick inserted comes out almost clean.
7. Cool 5 minutes in pan, then remove cake pops from pan to cool completely. Trim the edges of cake pops, if needed.
((Decoration))
1. Thinly slice goji berries to look like beni shoga (red pickled ginger).
2. Place the cake pops in a plastic container.
3. Top with HERSHEY'S Chocolate Syrup to look like Takoyaki sauce and Morinaga Rennyu (condensed milk) to look like mayonnaise. Sprinkle with matcha green tea powder to look like aonori (green laver) and top with sliced goji berries. Eat with a toothpick.

Great gift idea for your friends, easy-to-carry around!
