I too love to bake... but with 3 kids and school...no time. Oh.. don't misunderstand, I'm not a full time student... lol. Will be free in about 2 weeks time... and hopefully, will be posting regularly too!
Till then....

Peng,
As per your request since you hv so much tapioca left..hehe.
<u><font color="0000ff">THAI TAPIOCA LOW FAT DESSERT</font></u>
Tapioca
1.5kg of raw tapioca - peeled and cut into approx. 6cm long
1 tsp of salt
Abt 10-12pandan leaves
A: Sugar Syrup
400g of sugar
1/2 cup of water
B: Coconut Toppings
1 cup of coconut milk }
1 tsp of salt }
1 tsp of cornflour }
2 pandan leaves
* Pandan leaves I based on the big ones...crushed them before steaming/boiling will give out the flavor more.
Method:-
1) Add salt into lukewarm water and soak tapioca for 15-20 mins.
2) Put abt 5 pandan leaves into a pot of water to boil for steaming the tapioca later.
3) Lay abt 5 pandan leaves onto steamer and let the tapioca sit on it. Steam for 15min or til cooked. (See tips below)
4) Remove tapioca and place into the sugar syrup (see #5).
5) Boil Ingredients in A till sugar melts. When thicken, put in the tapioca to soak.
6) To make coconut syrup in B: Add coconut milk, salt and pandan leaves n boil on very low flame. Once you see bubbles, stir in cornflour to thicken. Off fire and leave aside for serving.
7) Before serving, some like to pour the coconut syrup over the tapioca but some like to dip it. So depend on your preference and serve them.
Tips to share: When cooked, the texture of apioca should be soft and translucent in appearance. If not sure, take a spoonful to sample.
Happy Trying...
<font color="aa00aa">Hmmm...now you make me crave for this dessert liao. Jia liat... Never mind, I go market buy tapioca in the morning.</font>

The soup is mushroom pastry puff soup. I bought a can of mushroom soup, add 1 n half can of water, some chopped mushroom, salt then some milk n boil it. Brush some egg on the side of soup bowl, put the roti prata on top. Brush some egg on top on it. Put in oven to bake till golden brown. Very simple.

My "fruits" yesterday.
Almond & Cinnamon Cookies.
Got this from a book borrowed from library. Got no picture so don whether this is correct/ok or not. However, the book asked for 120gsm of flour but I find it sticky when making the dough, so I add some more flour myself base on judgement.
