秀厨艺~Chilled Lemon Cheese Cake + Pai Kut Wang

看到家里久久放在冰箱里的柠檬,心血来潮想说来做个柠檬芝司蛋糕好了。这不是我第一次做蛋糕,不过对上一次已经好久之前了。
Looking at the lemons in our fridge, I get an idea to make a chilled lemon cheese cake during the off-work weekend. This is not my first time for baking cakes, but it has been a very long time ago since my last baking.

依照食谱上的步骤,芝司蛋糕的面糊也差不多完成了,最后再加入柠檬皮。柠檬皮是很香的,加入蛋糕里面的话更可以增添一份芬芳的味道。不过前提是要削得很薄,因为我们只可以取黄色皮的部分,白色的纤维会带来苦味。
Following every procedure in the recipe, the cheese batter is almost done. Before completing the cake, I added in some zest of lemon. The zest can add in more lemon fragrance to the cake. However, we have to slice it very carefully, as we only want the thin yellow layer. This is to prevent the bitter favor from most of the fruit's peel. The white layer under the yellow layer is actually the one that provide the bitter favor.

冷冻了两个小时后,我把蛋糕从模型中取出。有个不祥的预感,因为先前在弄饼干底层的时候,牛油放得太少,所以一部分的饼干也散开来了!啊。。。。。。
After chilling for 2 hours, it's time for me to remove it from the cake mould. But I have a "not-so-good" feeling, as when I was doing the biscuit base, I added too little of melted butter, so when I remove the cake from the mould, some of the biscuits fall off. arghh....

不过卖相看起来还蛮漂亮的,不管三七二十一了,拍下照片再算吧!因为刚吃过晚餐,肚子饱饱的,所以拍完照就把蛋糕放回冰箱里,明天再吃吧!
But in fact, the outlook of the cake is quite nice...hehe^^. So I quickly snap some photo before bothering so much. I keep it back to the fridge after snapping session because I'm just had my dinner. Let's try it the next day!



今天早上醒来后,第一件事就想到我的蛋糕!刀子一切下去,饼干果然都散开了!饼干很香,可是却吃不到,好不满足哦!
The first thing that came into my mind was my cheese cake after waking up this morning. To my disappointment, the biscuit base falls when I cut the cake. =(
饼干不见了!Where is the biscuit?


心有不服,吃过午饭,我就一直在想,可以不可以挽救呢?结果让我想到了一个办法!
To my dissatisfaction, I keep thinking whether there is anything that I could do to "save" my cake? *Bling* I got an idea!

我把蛋糕反过来,饼干底层朝上。把掉在盘上的饼碎再加上新的饼碎,融了牛油一起搅拌, 然后再次涂上蛋糕,然后放回冰箱冷冻一下!果然,我的方法是可行的,拯救行动算是成功!=D
I turned the cake upside down with the biscuit base face up. Melt some butter, crash some biscuit and mix with the fall-off biscuit, once again put it on top of the upside down cake. Chilled it for a while in the fridge. My "cake-saving" mission turned out to be quite successful! =D

虽然卖相不比之前好看,不过这一口蛋糕吃得很满足,饼干是好吃的!至于蛋糕的部分嘛,我觉得还有待加强,因为不够软绵,没有入口即化的感觉!
Although the outlook is not as good as before, but this bite was very satisfaction, the biscuit is a good one! For the cake, I feel that it is not soft enough, I still have a lot of improvement to get a cheese cake that will melt in the mouth!

今天,靓妈破天荒地准备午餐,我也大显身手弄了一道拿手的排骨王。因为家里没了“红毛酱油”(kip chap),所以调酱料的时候,我改用中式酱油,可能出手太重,稍咸了点!不过配饭还是美味地。。。呵呵!这可是我很有把握的得意之作呐!=P
Pretty mum prepare lunch today, I also contribute my all-time-favourite~Pai Kut Wang. But maybe I add too much of soya sauce into the gravy, so it turned out a bit salty. However, it is indeed a delicious dish with rice....hehe! Of cause, this is my signature dish!

另外,靓妈准备了罗汉斋和白萝卜汤。
Pretty mum prepared 2 dishes, luo han zai and white radish soup.
