Pickling chillies

Just the other day at brekkie, the pup was complaining about the quality of the pickled green chillies.

Then I thought why didn't I make my own? I mean, it's just pickles right? Shouldn't be that hard....

I googled up the recipe online when I got home and thanks to Bee from rasalaysia.com I've got some awesome pickled chillies!!!!

Here's the recipe http://rasamalaysia.com/pickled-chilies/ and a pic of mine :)

Strawberry jello!!!

I got bored the other day and thought "Hey why is it that I never make jello?" so then I looked around the Internet for some recipes - that's when I discovered konnyaku (こんにゃく)

Apparently it's packed with fiber and has almost no calories - perfect for people with the munchies but on a diet!

Simply grab a pack from your local grocery store and follow the instructions. You can replace the water with tea infusions if you'd like or just add some cut up fruits! It's really easy.

Oh and when it says stir in gradually. Stir. In. Gradually.

My first attempt ended up in a clumpy mess because I dumped the entire pack in at one go!

Anyways here you go :)
