Crema De Fruta - Gandara Bakes!

Making Crema de Fruta is neat because you don't have to bake it. As long as you have a fridge and the ingredients needed, you're good to go. Let me show you how to make this creamy and beautiful crema de fruta with clear jello on top. I honestly didn't know I can nail it.

I won't put exact measurements on the ingredients. Because I don't know if you wanna make a lot or just a little. I'll just write the ingredients you'll need. Then you need to adjust the rest to match your preference.

Bacon Rolled Shrimp - Gandara Cooks!

I got this idea from Ochikeron and the recipe is so nice and easy. Though I made slight adjustments to the recipe and I want it to match to our Filipino taste and also substitute some ingredients that can be easily access by an average Filipino. This is one is a little bit sweet.

Ingredients:
6pcs shrimps - Ideally, "Sugpo" (black tiger shrimps) are preferred. But you can use a little bigger "Suahe".
3 bacon strips
salt and ground black pepper
2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp sprite or 7-up soda
calamansi

6 toothpick sticks

Next Dish: Singapore Prawn Noodles Soup

When I saw the effort and how rich that soup is, I decided I'm going to make this.

Let's see how it would go. But I'd like to put some fish sauce in it somewhere. We'll see...

Pope Returned Safely Back to Rome with my Sister Carla- Gandara Reports!

First of all, let me say "To God be the glory." 

So at 5:19ish AM today at TV5, Carla was asked by Lourd if she washed her hands. You know how we Filipinos kid around if some popular and big people shakes hand with us. Some would say "I will never wash my hands ever again!!!" aaaand my sister said:

"Oo naman!"  (But ofcourse!)

LOL LOL and LOL! But before any person criticize Carla, let me  tell you something.

C&K Homemade Delights - Gandara Reviews!

When you know you have a sweet tooth and when you eat with your eyes, how can you not be attracted to the lovely and yummy looking desserts C&K makes?

There's a reason why I'm making a review of C&K Homemade Delights. Now that everyone is very concerned about what goes in their body, I'm 100% certain that C&K is made by a professional and that these goodies are clean and the work area is sanitary.

Rose Steamed Bun - Gandara Steams!

Rose-shaped Siopao (Mantou or Steamed Bun). They don't really taste any different from regular steamed bun. Its just that, they are too pretty to eat. I came across this YouTube video tutorial on how to make it and I tried it myself upon realizing I have all the ingredients on hand. They're very simple and I bet you can make yours too!

I bet you'll have all the ingredients you need in your kitchen or sari-sari stores near you except for the food coloring. So when you get a hold of a red food coloring, you can do this right away. 

You might be able to do it better than I did. Next time I'll be doing this, I'll make the sides thinner because at the same time, mine looked like pink poops. LOL

Here are the ingredients and the procedure on how to make it. I made some slight adjustments to match our Filipino taste. Below, I'll post the YouTube link from where I got the idea from. Thumbs up to May Lynn!

Cheese Soufflé - Gandara Bakes!

When we say "Soufflé" it means lightly baked. So the batter is still wet but edible. Dish of this type are
served hot and almost straight out of the oven.  I first found this out by watching MasterChef and wondered what it taste like.

Here in the Philippines, I tried to find bakeries and restaurants that prepares Cheese souffle. I didn't find any
(atleast not anywhere near me) that's why I had to make one following some recipes I saw online.
