Coco-Red Bean MOffins


So, that is not a typo.  I do not mean 'muffin.' Mochi + Muffin = MOffins.  When my friend posted a recipe for MOffins, I was out of rice flour.  But after Chinese New Year I had both rice flour and leftover red bean filling from my mooncakes.  So this was a 'must try' this morning...with my typical variations, of course...especially since I didn't have any matcha powder.

3 eggs
1/2 C canola oil
2 cups milk
1/2 C organic granulated sugar
1 T baking powder
2 t ground ginger powder
1 box of rice flour (I actually didn't have a whole box because I had used 1 C for my mooncakes.  I substituted some coconut flour)

Mix the eggs and oil.  Then mix everything else except for red beans.  Pour half the batter into muffin cup, add about teaspoon of red beans, top it off with more batter. Bake for about 30 minutes at 375˚F till the top of the MOffin is slightly browned.

  1. Wow, this recipe sounds really neat. I like the idea of using rice flour to make these and, of course, I'm crazy about red bean filling. It looks really good. I bet the rice flour gives them a nice chewy texture.

Quick Pickled Red Onions and Radishes

If you've been reading my blog for even a short amount of time, you probably know how much I love to pickle things. I was just telling a friend you can pickle - with vinegar - or you can ferment - with salt - for similar delicious effect. The latter has digestive benefits and I love to do that, but when I need that pop of sour flavor quickly, I whip up quick pickles that are ready in as little as a day or two. I've Pickled Blueberries , Pickled Asparagus , Pickled Cranberries , Pickled Pumpkin , and even Pickled Chard Stems ! This I did last night for an upcoming recipe challenge that requires I include radishes. Ummmm...of course I'm pickling them! Ingredients  makes 1 quart jar radishes, trimmed and sliced organic red onions, peeled and thinly sliced (I used a mandolin slicer) 3/4 C vinegar (I used white distilled vinegar) 3/4 C water 3 T organic granulated sugar 1 T salt (I used some grey sea salt) 6 to 8 grinds of black pepper Proce

Aloo Tiki {Pakistan}

To start off our Pakistani culinary adventure, I started us off with aloo tiki - potato cutlets. I'm always game for tasty street food. I found a couple of different recipes and incorporated those together for this version. Ingredients 6-8 small red potatoes, scrubbed 1 T cumin seeds 1 T fresh chopped parsley 1/2 t ground coriander 1 t minced garlic Procedure Boil the potatoes until they are tender. Drain and let cool. Mash the potatoes. Traditionally they are mashed without their skins. I left the skins on. In a small pan, toast the cumin seeds on high heat until the begin to give off an aroma and begin to darken. Remove from heat and transfer to a plate to keep them from cooking any more. Blend all of the spices into the mashed potatoes, then shape into small patties. If you wet your hands, the potato mixture won't stick to them. Heat a splash of oil in a large, flat-bottom pan. Dip each patty into beaten egg and carefully place in the oil. P
