Mosin1

Restoran Mosin in TTDI, same row as TTDI Pizza Hut is the place to go when i am craving for naan, their garlic naan to be specific. As per above addresses in the receipt, there are actually 2 branches of Mosin in TTDI alone, one along Jalan Wan Kadir 2, the other along Jalan Aminuddin Baki

Mosin2

My favourite garlic naan(RM3.50), not oily at all, the way i like it instead  of some other mamak which has butter brushed on

Mosin3

Nasi lemak(RM2.50), just ok

Mosin4

rice and noddle dishes

Mosin5

Naan menu, their mumtaz naan is quite famous with butter, mayo, cheese, tomato etc on top, which i find it to look very cloying.

Address: Mosin

No. 2, Jalan Wan Kadir 2, Taman Tun Dr. Ismail, 50000 Kuala Lumpur

Recipe: Yogurt Cake

YogurtCake1

Venture into this recipe: Yoghurt cake with skepticism, the ingredients looks simple and pretty much anticipate it to be a simple plain cake, recipe taken from The Kitchn. Although even the famous french blogger Clotilde from Chocolate & Zucchini wrote a post on how wonderful yogurt cake is and how easy it is to make it that it is often the first cake French kids learn to make. My hopes still aren’t high, i am thinking it will resemble a plain sponge, maybe a good sponge, but still a plain one as there is no distinct flavouring, mainly yogurt and some ground nutmeg. But i am surprised at how lovely it taste especially on the next day when the crusty top has soften, and can really taste the soft texture of this cake, a good cake without strong buttery/milky taste of butter cake, as it is made with olive oil. Yum~ A keeper.

Above is wet ingredients

370g container of Sunglo yogurt (recipe calls for about 360g, so i didn’t scrape the yogurt container clean…)

140g olive oil (i used extra virgin olive oil which is the only type available at home)

190g sugar (as usual, i use less sugar, recipe originally calls for about 230g)

350g flour

i used very little freshly ground nutmeg due to not knowing whether it will be overpowering (can use more next time)

YogurtCake2

Pour into spring form pan or any type of pan with bottom lined with baking paper and side slightly greased

YogurtCake3

Doesn’t look pretty, still not knowing how wonderful this cake taste 😛

YogurtCake4

Put on rack for cooling

YogurtCake5

Nice caramelized colour, i find this cake tasted ok when warm, best eaten when completely cool or even the next day. The texture remain soft and yummy on the next day.


 

Recipe: Low Fat Brownie

LowFatBrownie1

This low fat brownie recipe taken from The Food Site, whole thing contains only 1.5 tablespoon of oil. Above is wet ingredients(yogurt, eggs, vanilla essence and vegetable oil) and dry ingredients all sifted together(flour, baking powder, cocoa powder and brown sugar)

Amount in metric which i used:

140g flour

1/2 tsp baking powder

4 TBSP cocoa

80g brown sugar (originally recipe calls for about 90g)

1 small container of yogurt(bought small 135g of yogurt)

…

LowFatBrownie2

i think i overwork the batter a bit, i was mixing it and wondering whether i got the measurement correct as it looks dry while i am still folding the flour mixture into wet ingredients, and before long, the mixture feels thick and not even in pourable consistency

LowFatBrownie3

After 20 mins in 180 Celcius oven

LowFatBrownie4

doesn’t look good, don’t know why the bottom of the cake looks to have blackish sediments

LowFatBrownie5

feel chewy and not nice

I will not make this again, low fat(1.5 tablespoons oil) and low sugar(only 80g of sugar) doesn’t taste good.
