hi joanne
Mine from her recipe book which I bought, under How to be a domestic goddess.
I went to nigella.com website, din state there (she wont list out all her recipes), so I did a search on google, n i found someone typed out n posted in the blog, so i copied n pasted here for u:
Nigella Lawson's Blueberry Muffins [makes 12 little muffins]
1) Melt 6 Tbsp of butter and set aside. Preheat oven to 200 degress C.
2) Combine 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 tsp baking soda, 2 tsp baking powder, 1/4 cup sugar, pinch of salt.
3) In a separate bowl, beat 3/4 cup and 2 Tbsp buttermilk with 1 large egg and melted butter.
4) With a light hand, pour wet ingredients into dry and mix to combine. (No worries about lumps. Do not overwork the mixture.)
5) Fold in blueberries. Keep mixing to a minumum. Bake for 20 minutes and cool.
Have fun!

234,
i use 8inch spring form tin for the mango cheesecake.
if you don't have spring form tin or loose tin, you can juz simply put the baking paper before you pour the cheesecake batter.
but pls remember that you have to chilled the cheesecake till very firm so that you dun hv any problem to take it out.
invest in 8inch spring form is very worth
'coz 8inch is a common size. it's multi purpose, can use it for sponge cake, butter cake, etc.
hammie & sally,
yes the lunch is today, cos i can't tahan liao.. die die muz eat tomyam.... tham chiak hor?
mdl,
hahaha! yes yes, 500 gr kiwi puree leh...... tat's why the texture is abit too soft in room temperature, gotta chilled it.. coz the kiwi puree content is equal to cream cheese.

Pink,
aiya wasted, tot can meet u this week. Next time lah. My "fruits" cant compare to u lah. U r still my idol.
In case anyone wan to try:
Coca Cola Cake
1 1/3 Cups flour
3/4 Cup plus 1 Tbs sugar
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 large egg
1/2 Cup buttermilk
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup unsalted butter
2 Tbs cocoa powder
3/4 Cup Coca-Cola
8 or 9 inch springform pan lined with foil to prevent the batter leaking, then greased
Preheat the oven to 180 C and put in a baking sheet at the same time.
In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt. Beat the egg, buttermilk, and vanilla in a measuring cup. In a heavy bottomed saucepan, melt the butter, cocoa and Coca-Cola, heating gently. Pour into the dry ingredients, stir well with a wooden spoon, and then add the liquid ingredients, beating until everything is blended.
Pour into the prepared pan and bake on the warm sheet for 40 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean.
Leave to stank for 15 minutes in the pan before unmolding. Then unclip, unwrap and turn out onto a wire rack, making sure you 've got a sheet of newspaper or something underneath the rack to catch any icing that drips through.
Icing:
1 1/2 Cups Confectioners sugar
2 tbs butter
3 tbs Coca-Cola
1 Tbs cocoa powder
1/2 tsp vanilla
Sift the confectioners sugar and set aside for the moment. In a heavy bottomed saucepan combine the butter, Coca-Cola, and cocoa and stir over a low heat until the butter has melted. Remove from he heat, add the vanilla, and spoon in the sifted sugar, beating as you do so, until you've got a good, spreadable, but still runny icing.
Pour this icing over the cake, while the cake is stillw arm and leave till cool before transferring to the plate on which your serving it. Serves 8-10
In Nigella's book, she gives idea that you can also make coca cola cupcakes by pouring the batter into a 12 bun muffin tray lined with paper cases. Pour the icing over just after you have taken them out of the oven. Stud each cupcake with a miniature bottle of coke n press on top each cupcake once the icing's cooled a little but before it has set hard. Hence I made mine in cupcakes following her idea. heehee

but gotta becareful ya? tho fructose helped diabetics had fewer spikes in bloodsugar levels. Three of the Type I diabetics were able to reduce their insulin intake, it's a good signed, however, fructose can impact cholesterol, so gotta check cholesterol level.
<font color="0000ff">PANDAN MUFFIN</font>
Ingredients:
250 gm. all purpose flour
2 tsp. Baking Powder
50 gm. fructose ( i get it from PH), ard S$5 / 500gr
2 eggs - lightly beaten (use folk will do)
180 gm. Coconut milk or Evaporated Milk
100 gm. butter
10 blades of Pandan leaves - blend with milk
a drop of pandan paste
Method:
(1) Cream the butter and fructose together until creamy & pale - my kenwood chef mixer need ard 5 mnts, normal mixer perhaps 15 - 18mnts.
(2) Add in beaten egg gradually and then add in the pandan milk.
(3) Add in pandan paste.
(4) Sift the flour and baking powder twice and then mix into the butter mixture and stir gently. Do not overmix the batter, it should be lumpy.
5) Pour batter into muffin cups.
6) Bake at preheated oven at 200C for about 25 mins.
yield about 12 pcs.

75g unsalted butter
200g plain flour
1/2 teaspoon bicarbonate soda
2 teaspoon baking powder
75g caster sugar
pinch of salt
200ml buttermilk
1 large egg
200g blueberries
Hope more clear for u.
Pink,

Pink, wat is buttermilk huh? saw many recipe stated buttermilk but dunno wat is it..can show pic? or under which section in supermarket?
As for ur pandan muffin, if i wan to replace with normal sugar, hw much should i put? Then when add in egg to the mix butter, use mixer also or hand mix?
Cat, did u recd my email to u on the test paper?
Dunno ur son age think maybe will suit u..

Pink, I got the recipe off someone's blog. Though I modified it a little, but I have emailed her to ask for permission if I can post the recipe here since the recipe does not belong to me. But from what I can see, if you have a standard non-bake cheesecake recipe which you are comfortable with, just add the tofu instead of the usual fruits or oreo. It should work bah?
