Tell me what is on your mind
Help me, 'cause I'd like to know
What the hell is going on?
Never thought I'd sing this song


Let's not get started with the he said, she said
Sometimes it just doesn't go on as planned
Let's not get started with the he said, she said
Sometimes it just doesn't go on as planned


Started out so simple and innocent
So simple and innocent, so simple and innocent, so simple and innocent
Chemistry like apple and cinnamon
Like apple and cinnamon, like apple and cinnamon, like apple and cinnamon


I can't believe that you and me were falling out of love
And that everybody used to be so envious of us
(Chemistry like apple and cinnamon)
What we had was just too good
Good to last


Happiness don't last that long
But what we had was beautiful


Let's not get started with the he said, she said
Sometimes it just doesn't go on as planned
Let's not get started with the he said, she said
Sometimes it just doesn't go on as planned


Started out so simple and innocent
So simple and innocent, so simple and innocent, so simple and innocent


Chemistry like apple and cinnamon
Like apple and cinnamon, like apple and cinnamon, like apple and cinnamon


I can't believe that you and me were falling out of love
And that everybody used to be so envious of us
(Chemistry like apple and cinnamon)
What we had was just too good
Good to last


Please don't look at me like that, oh
Please don't look at me, don't look at me like that, oh
You can't look at me like that, aah
Please don't look at me, don't look at me like that, oh




I can't believe that you and me were falling out of love
And that everybody used to be so envious of us
(Chemistry like apple and cinnamon)
What we had was just too good


Started out so simple and innocent
So simple and innocent, so simple and innocent, so simple and innocent


Chemistry like apple and cinnamon
Like apple and cinnamon, like apple and cinnamon, like apple and cinnamon


I can't believe that you and me were falling out of love
And that everybody used to be so envious of us
(Chemistry like apple and cinnamon)
What we had was just too good
Good to last

Pineapple Upside Down - Apple Sauce Cake..

(alahaii mcm main bedal je snap pic ni, x cantik n xda class heheh :P)

Tgk nama kek ni mmg complicated sbb ia gabungan 2 teknik..Pineapple upside down n apple sauce cake..
ini adalah resepi yg ke................................20 kalo x silap..yg saya cuba2 nk experiment..dan juga mungkin....................................................yang last untuk 2011..heheh.smbung tahun depan la plak..mgkin nk try yg tradisional..nk break sbb telah di beri amaran..akibat syok2 buat bnda ni..maka azam nk 'fit' jd makin 'fat' kih3...ok fine..dh merepek..

Mmg agak complicated n byk step dr scratch.. cara senang nk ingt ada 3 step utama...hmmm.. mulakn dgn..

1. MAKING APPLE SAUCE

3-4 biji apple dipotong kecil2 + 2-3 sudu besar gula perang + sikit perahan jus lemon / lime / apa limau pn boleh..+ 1/2 sudu teh cinnamon (coz apple love cinnamon).n sedikit air..sikit je tau sbb nnti air buah sndiri akan keluar..masak sampai jadi mcm ni..


Kalau nk senang..cari aje yg dlm tin..tp x byk tempat jual..tu jer..

2. BUAT ADUNAN KEK PULAK...

1/2 cwn shortening + 1/4 majerin dipukul dgn 1 cawan gula perang + 1/2 cawan gula pasir.

Masukkan 2 biji telur -> pukul

Masukkan 1/2 cawan susu berselang seli dengan..
a) 2 cawan tepung gandun + 1 1/2 sudu teh baking powder + 1/2 sudu teh baking soda (soda bicarbonate)
b) Apple sauce yg baru dibuat..

Tambah sikit kacang almond/pecan/walnut yg di'finely chopped' atau yg serbuk.

1 sudu teh serbuk kulit kayu manis..

Pukul n pukul lagi..kalau nk masuk kismis pn boleh..hasil seblum jd kek..


Ok dah..letak tepi dulu...

3. PINEAPPLE UPSIDE DOWN

Cairkn butter / marjerin dgn gula perang sampai bentuk lapisan likat n pekat..dan terus lah letak buah..ikut suka nk susun macam mana sekali pun..

Tuang adunan kek tadi n bakar 180C selama 40 min lebih kurang..cucuk2 jgn x cucuk nk tgk msk ke belum...

Ok dh kuar oven lalala...sila terbalikkan kek n lihat hasilnya...


(masa tuang adunan kedudukan nenas didapati sedikit bergerak - mcm pergerakan peta bumi plak heh :P )


Tekstur kek mmg agak padat..sbb guna apple sauce yg ada moist skit..sbb tu kek ni kurang komersial uolss..
even Secret Recipe pn x jual..sbb mgkin ada org yg x leh terima kek yg mcm ni..mgkin akan d anggap x masak...

1st try mmg byk kelemahan..kene improve next time..

Carrot Apricot Muffin

                                   

Ketika sedang belek2 buku yg bertajuk 'everyday arthritis solution' di mana sebelum ni x minat pn belek..tetiba jumpa recipe yg menarik ni..perkhh x sangka buku mcm tu pn ada diselitkn recipe..

Maka pulun lah nk pg cari apricot kt kedai arab, giant dan sbg nya..tapi x jumpa2..bukan xtau nk cari kt mana lag..tp mcm byk sgt aral melintang nk pg kedai2 yg berkaitan..akhirnya setelah 2 minggu postponed nk wat benda ni..akhirnya jejak juga kaki di warta Bangi utk beli apricot kering ni..

Maka tanggal 3 Dec akhirnya saya pn buat lah muffin ni..konon2 sbg thank you pd kwn2 sanggup korbankn weekend utk tolong wat keje2 seminar..cewah haha..adoii pjg plak al-kisahnya..

1. Ok..sebelum nk mulakan proses..buat yang ini dulu...

Parut 1 batang carrot = hasilnya 1 cawan

Potong kecik2 12 dried apricot = hasil lebih krg 3/4 - 1 cawan

parut sebiji kulit oren (bagi aroma sikit kononnya)




2. Next...Campur bahan2 kering

Ayak bersama 1 3/4 cawan tepung gandum + 2 sudu teh baking powder + 1/2 sudu teh soda bicarbonat

Lepas tu gaul bersama dengan:-

1/2 - 1 sudu teh serbuk kulit kayu manis..(my fav cinnamon lah)
1/2 - 1 sudu teh serbuk buah pala
1 sudu teh serbuk badam

3. Mulakan processing..

Pukul 1/4 cawan minyak jagung (nape minyak?sbb ini recipe american muffin)

Masukkan 1 cawan gula perang -> pukul..masuk sebiji telur -> pukul..

Masukkan 1/2 cawan susu low fat / full cream. tapi kalau ikut recipe sebenar 1 cawan buttermilk

Masukkan bahan2 kering yang dah campur tadi.sikit demi sikit.-> pukul...

Masuk parutan kulit oren..

Pukul n pukul lagi guna cake mixture sampai kelikatan dia jadi lebih krg mcm ni..



Ok. Last sekali..masukkan carrot n apricot..dan gaul dgn spatula (dah berenti pakai mesin)

Masuk dalam acuan dan bakor lah..180C selama 25- 30 minit..Bila dh naik bau rajin2 lah cucuk2 tgk bahagian dalam muffin dh masak ke belum.
