TAU FOO FAH

السلام عليكم
Peace be upon you

My first homemade Tau Foo Fah was definitely successful. But, I still need the improvement in making this everyones favourite dessert. There are two type of sugar syrups which is palm sugar or normal white sugar. I used palm sugar as my Tau Foo Fah syrup. The traditional way in making this Tau Foo Fah is using gypsum but I heard that mentioned ingredient is not good for health.

Ingredients

1. 600 ml homemade soy milk (unsweetened)
2. 1/2 tsp agar-agar powder (Nona brand and you may use Pearl Mermaid brand as well)

Method

1. Divide soy milk into two equal portion (300ml for each).
 
2. Pour one portion 300ml into a medium pot and heat it up over low heat.
 
3. Dissolve agar-agar powder in another portion 300ml and mix well.
 
4. Once the soymilk in the pot turn slightly hot, gently pour in the soy milk and agar-agar mixture into the pot, and mix them well.
 
5. Stir from time to time, cook for about 8 minutes over low heat. Turn off heat when you see bubbles on top but don't wait until it boil.
 
6. Pour the hot soy milk mixture into bowls, containers or ramekins.
 
7. Skim off the bubbles on top. Allow to sit for about 15 minutes to cool, skim off a thin layer of tou foo curd on top.
 
8. Store in the fridge for 4 hours or just keep it in room temperature till it set.  Enjoy with syrup or palm sugar syrup.

Once you had your own Tau Foo Fah, you won't look for other / outside Tau Foo Fah anymore. Believe me.. 

So now nak cerita about yesterday. Finally dapat juga I berbuka dengan my beloved. Yelah dah bape hari berpuasa tak pernah berbuka sama coz next week I will not in town anymore. Nasib baik teman my sister tengah hari semalam tak lama sangat, if not tak dapat jugak lah berbuka sama. Baru ingat nak merajuk but the day before dia datang lepas main badminton. Afternoon tu dia dah cakap nak datang sebelum main badminton then I pun cakap lah, better don't sebab I kata I nak pi terawikh. Kikiki merajuk punya pasal kan? Then up to 10pm pun dia tak muncul-muncul so I assumed dia ikut lah kata I tak datang. Tup tup tup 10.30pm I dengar bunyi kete dia kat luar.. Ayoyo orang tua tu datang la pulak. Macam biasa, dia angkut lah bag raket badminton dia tu masuk rumah pastu dia kata dia pi main kejap aje tadi. Sakit kaki and terus ke Puchong jumpa I. I dah siap buat air semua.. dia pun kata lah kat I "Ambil barang I kejap kat dalam bag raket tu. Kat zip tengah tau. Kat zip tengah.." (Dengan rasa pelik tak sebut barang apa) I pun refuse la, I kata I malas. Pastu dia suruh lagi.. I pun dengan malasnya pi lah buka bag tu. Sambil korek-korek sambil membebel tanya apa benda yang dia suruh ambil tu. Yang I nampak ialah balang-balang shuttlecock adalah berlambak-lambak. Pastu kat hujung bag tu I ternampak kotak kecik warna putih..apa lagi!! Berderai lah air mata! Tak sangka dia belikan jugak kat I.. Katanya "hadiah anniversary in advance" Woohooooo! Lepas nangis terus lah melompat kekekekeke.

So semalam call lah Alissara untuk book meja coz kalau tak book memang takde lah mejanya. Full house aje memanjang. Book meja terus order makanan okay! Kalau tak order you all tunggu lah sampai orang lain dah habis berbuka you baru terhegeh-hegeh nak makan.

We all order siakap 3 rasa, sotong steam limau, asparagus udang and tomyam seafood. Tapi tomyamnye sampai lambat la pulak semalam. Dah berbuka few minutes baru lah sampai. Dalam tomyam tu ada ketam tau! Kesemuanya sedap tapi agak pedas makanan kat Alissara ni. Tempat ni memang favourite my family.

Tengoklah, penuh sampai ke belakang. Belum lagi belah depan and kat luar-luar tu. As always, full house! Harga boleh tahan, semua sekali RM98.00. Alhamdulillah.. sekali pun cukup.. tak minta banyak :)

So have fun, and don't forget to try thisvery simple recipe.

Love,
Honey
