Chef Bagus Cook-off challenge 2013 ~ Marriot Hotel

I would like to dedicate this post to my future grand children and so on......, enabling them to know  what their grand mother  has been through during her golden era.

Since my inaugural live cooking contest by Lady's Choice,  and subsequent  Cornell Cooking Contest, my confidence of live cooking has built up.  I could still remember my hands were trembling during my 1st cooking contest.  LOL.... 

On the Marriott Hotel's  Chef Bagus challenge, six finalists were chosen to compete for the Chef Bagus Cook-off Challenge 2013 LIVE at Marriot Hotel, Putrajaya on the 4th July 2013 (Thursday)
The contestants had to prepare 2 recipes  with 2 different main ingredients within 1½ hrs.  We were required to prepare 2 sets for each of the dishes; one for the judges to taste, another for display/photography.
The contest is somehow similar to the "Iron Chef" concept as no clue was given for the two main dishes prior to the contest day!    Phewwwww............  Stresssss  lo.....

Nevertherless, it was a fun and challenging event for all the 6 contestants.  I personally would like to say A BIG THANK YOU to MARRIOTT HOTEL, PUTRAJAYA for organizing the event.  BRAVO! 

The recipes of the 3 winners were prepared by chef of Marriott Hotel  to showcase  at their Ramadan Buffet 2013 promotion.

The Winners
I won the 1st Runnerup prize, a flight ticket for a 3D/2N stay for two in Miri Marriot Resort and SPA, Sarawak. Thank you Marriott Hotel!

Passion Fruit Ogura Cake #12 百香果相思蛋糕

It has been almost 2  months that I last posted my Ogura Cake Series.  No, its not that I stopped baking Ogura Cakes, in fact I have baked a few with different  favors but all the photos  have been kept in the file collecting spider webs.  Lazy worms all stuck over my body, having tough time to get rid of them.   hehe....

But this Passion Fruit Ogura Cake is one of my most successful products so far in term of  the texture.  The only complaint I have is my itchy hands sprinkle the passion fruit on the top  layer of the batter before going into the oven  that resulted  with so many ugly 'tahi lalat " (mole) on the surface of the cake.  That made the cake looked cracked but it was not.    Otherwise I will have a perfect smooth looking Ogura Cake.  Sign....
