    Chicken bao from the deep freeze section of the asian supermarket warmed up in a steamer. Home made mini loempias I popped into the freezer warmed up in the air fryer.

    WOW this looks soo good. What kind of wraps do you use for the loempias?

    These are the brand of loempia sheets I bought for next time. A cooks knife for reference to size. Last batch was same brand but the mini size, about a quarter ot the size. They looked cute but were fiddly as each mini sheet held a scant teaspoon of filling.

    From the frozen section of the asian supermarket. Defrost before using. I was pleasantly surprised by how easy they were to handle. I was afraid after defrosting they might be hard separate, but not the case at all.

    I've always got egg white in the fridge, but use a whole beaten egg for sealing if you don't have egg whites on hand. It is easiest to first brush the egg white on the last corner you will roll up, then fill, and roll. Spray or brush with oil. Freeze excess on a sheet and transfer to a ziplock bag once frozen. About 10 minutes at 200C from frozen in an air fryer or oven.

    I am planning to try doing turkish savoury pastries using the loempia sheets too, as they are much easier to handle then ready made phyllo dough. I did these to use up leftover cooked minced meat, which I stretched with a grated carrot. Grated courgette, shredded cabbage would work too.

    Of course.. 🙂
    1x buttercake mix
    125gms of melted butter
    1 cup shredded coconut
    1x 440gm tin pie apple ( not a sloppy wet brand)let drain if there's a bit of liquid.
    1 x 300ml carton lite sour cream
    2 beaten eggs
    2 x tblspns caster sugar

    Combine cake mix, coconut and butter. Press into a greased lamington tray.
    Bake 15 mins or till light brown 175c oven ( don't overcook as it has to be cooked again with topping on.
    Spread apple slices over base while it's warm.
    Combine sour cream, eggs and sugar then pour over apples. Sprinkle with nutmeg.
    Bake a further 20 mins or till the sour cream mixture is set.
    Let cool and refrigerate. Serve cold.
    I normally cut this into 12 but.. my lunch was 1/9th 😁
    This is a super easy quick slice.. a favourite in our fam for years.

    Not sure of the size of your cake mix pkts but I used a Coles 340gm buttercake mix.

    Linguine carbonara and roast vegetable salad. I used a recipe that called for two eggs and one yolk for two servings but I found that gave a sauce that is too liquid for my taste. Henceforth sticking to my usual routine of two yolks and one egg for two people.

    Dill pickles are quite easy to do at home. I would just use white wine vinegar if cider vinegar is not common in your part of the world.

    Thanks. The problem here is that I can't get dill. Also the cucumbers here get mushy and I love crunchy. I used to try and bring the ingredients from the States, but I never liked the pickles that came out of it. I love Milwaukee Dills.
