MINI 2-INGREDIENT BANANA PANCAKES

These flourless pancakes are gluten-free and dairy-free - they really are made with just bananas and eggs. No tricks and nothing can be easier. Sounds like you'll just end up with scrambled banana-eggs?! Though they are definitely not a replacement for your favorite Saturday morning recipe, the final product truly resembles a pancake - soft and golden brown, with crispy edges. Naturally sweet, they definitely taste like bananas, so if you're not a fan of that flavor, this recipe isn't for you :P

You can dress them up however you want. Just add a few more ingredients :D

Ingredients:

1 medium ripe banana
1 large eggs

That's all you need!

Peel the banana and break it up into several big chunks. Using a fork, mash until the banana has a pudding-like consistency and no large lumps remain; a few small lumps are alright.

Whisk the egg. Pour it over the banana and stir til completely combined.

Heat a little oil or butter in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Pour in roughly 2 tablespoons of the banana mixture. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook until both sides are golden brown. Transfer the cooked pancakes to a serving plate and continue cooking the rest of the batter.

Serve warm with honey, maple syrup, nuts, chocolate sauce or whatever toppings you want.

*Note: You can also add a pinch of baking powder to make them fluffier - turning it into mini 3-ingredient banana pancakes :D

YACON SOUP WITH CORN AND CARROT

Was shopping at the usual supermarket recently when I saw a lady promoting something which, from far, looked like sweet potatoes to me. I didn't pay attention to her til she called out to me and handed me a piece to sample. She was promoting organic yacons, not sweet potato. The moment I put it into my mouth, I remembered eating this looong time ago, but because I seldom see it in the supermarkets, I had totally forgotten about such a thing. The yacon is a traditionally grown for its crisp, sweet-tasting, tuberous roots. Though the root looks like a sweet potato, the taste and texture are completely different. Its crispy texture, juiciness and mildly sweet taste makes it somewhat similar to water chestnut or snow pear. It can be eaten raw or cook. It is said that yacon is very high in fiber and low in calories which makes it a healthy and nutritious snack. Some of the health benefits of yacon include its ability to regulate blood sugar levels, lower 'bad' choles

CHINESE ARROWROOT SOUP WITH PORK BONES

This is the simple version of the Chinese arrowroot soup (Also known as 粉葛湯 'Fun Kot Tong' in Cantonese). Our family love drinking this soup. It is tasty and cooking it with pork bones and dried squid makes it sweet and refreshing. Some people who like boiling arrowroot together with lotus roots or peanuts, and my mother-in-law usually boils it on its own and drink as 'cooling' tea. Naturally sweet and tasty. If you don't like seafood, you can choose to omit the dried squid. This is how the Chinese arrowroot looks like. The arrowroot is a type of root plant similar to taro, potato or tapioca. However, it is harder in texture and incredibly starchy. When it is cut up, it has patterns that looks like the ages of a tree trunk. It is usually made into powder and used as thicken agent in cooking. The arrowroot is high in protein and fiber which is very beneficial to our body. Ingredients: 1 medium-sized Chinese arrowroot (Approx 700g) 10 red dates,

LEAN'S @ ATRIA SHOPPING GALLERY

Tong sui are a Cantonese specialty. If you've grown up in a Cantonese family, you must have had tong sui before. The term 'tong sui' literally means 'sugar water'. It is a collective term for any sweet, warm soup or custard served as a dessert at the end of a meal in Cantonese cuisine. My dad is a huge fan of tong sui : red bean soup, peanut soup, barley ginkgo and black sesame soup being his favorite. I'm not really a tong sui person but I remember seeing this Lean's place in Atria that sells a variety of desserts, including tong sui , nyonya kuihs and light meals, so I brought my dad there to try when my parents came over. It was afternoon teatime when we arrived. We were feeling a little hungry, so we ordered 2 nasi lemak bungkus, a cucur udang, steam cakes for my LO, black sesame cream, barley ginkgo and bubur cha cha. Nasi Lemak bungkus (RM3.70). Cucur udang (RM3). Pandan and vanilla steam cake (RM1.50 each). Nasi lemak is a famous lo
