White chocolate strawberry muffin


I've never baked with white chocolate before and when I saw some leftover white chocolate in the fridge, thought it best to mix in with my muffins.  I was curious as to how they would turn out, especially the colour.










These are easy to make and taste just yummy with tangy berries and bits of white chocolate.

Recipe for White chocolate strawberry muffin

Ingredients
  • 300 gm self-raising flour  
  • 150 gm caster sugar
  • 100 gm white chocolate, coarsely chopped
  • 200 gm strawberries, chopped
  • 1 egg
  • 250 ml milk
  • 1/2  cup canola oil
  • 2  tsp lemon juice
  • pinch of salt
Method
  1. Whisk lemon juice, milk, oil and egg in a bowl till well combined.
  2. Sift flour with salt, mix in sugar and white chocolate.  Stir to combine.
  3. Add in the chopped strawberries.
  4. Slowly stir the wet ingredients into the flour mixture.  Stop stirring once the ingredients are combined.  Do not overmix.  Batter should be wet and lumpy.
  5. Scoop batter into patty tins lined with paper cups, level the surface.
  6. Bake in a preheated oven @ 180 deg C for 20 to 25 mins.  Test with a skewer till it comes out clean.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool on a wire rack.

  9. Makes 12
Note:  If using 300 gm plain flour, add in 4 tsp baking powder, sift together.
           These muffins are at their best on the day they're baked.

    Yum! Love white chocolate and berries in muffins. Never tried strawberries though, always use raspberries :-)

    I'd love to try with raspberries, but they're super expensive in this part of the globe!

    cheah, they look so moist and i love the colours? do you find them sweet? i once baked white choc cookies, maybe it's the sugar plus the white choc, they turned too sweet for me.

    No, they're just nice, because the strawberries were on the sourish side. The white chocs did blend well with the strawberries. Moreover, there's the addition of lemon juice.

Braised Pork Belly with Mui Choy ~ 梅菜焖五花肉

Mui Choy is preserved mustard greens and there are two types, one is salty while the other is sweet.  There are many ways of cooking mui choy with pork belly.  Instead of braising, you can steam it with minced pork but here I am using only the sweet mui choy and I braised the pork belly with it.  This is a flavourful dish and you can serve it with plain rice or plain porridge.

Snow Swallow Dessert ~ 天然野生雪燕

  Natural Wild Tragacanth Gum 'Snow Swallow' or Xue Yan is a gum derived from different varieties of sterculia trees.  It's actually a sap drained from the root of the plant and  the gum dries as it exudes and is then collected.  Once rehydrated will increase to about ten times in size and their white stringy, jelly like strands texture resembles that of the much prized and highly valued bird's nest.  One thing to take note when cooking this dessert is that the gum is highly soluble in water and cannot be boiled too long. Since it is 'cooling' for our internal organs, the elderlies should take this in moderation and not recommended for nursing mums for the breast milk may cause the baby to purge. Snow Swallow Dessert  ~   天然野生雪燕 Ingredients 8 gm Snow Swallow gums 10 gm red dates 10 gm goji berries 20 gm dried longan Rock or piece sugar to taste 1 litre water Pandan leaves (optional) Method Soak the Snow Swallow gums in plenty of water for at least...

Herbal Jelly ~ Gui Ling Gao

H erbal Jelly ~ Gui Ling Ga o literally translated means 'Tortoise Jelly' is one of my family's favourite desserts.  It's much more economical to prepare this at home for you'll need to fork out between Rm 9 to Rm 11 for a bowl of this cooling dessert in any of those herbal tea outlets.  This soothing jelly, served chilled, is supposed to be able to help reduce our body heat, helps to get rid of toxins and is believed to be good for the skin thus culminating a healthier complexion.
