Mango Souffle: Revisit 再次挑战芒果舒芙蕾
I'm that kind of people who work better under pressure...hahaha. Today is a happy day because of this beautiful souffle in front of me. This is my second attempts on souffle. After took it out from oven, the lift last for 5-8 mins. I had enough time to take the shots, accompanied my son who woke up suddenly from his nap for a while then came back to see the souffle fell flat :)

Mango Souffle
First time I saw souffle was on Nasi Lemak Lover's blog, Sonia tried Ellie's (Almost Bourdain) Lemon, lime and orange souffle with some modification, she baked Orange and lemongrass souffle, I was very impressed with her baking and wow her souffle in front of my screen! Few days ago, Almost Bourdain posted Shout-out (12) and I got changes to read Ellie's recipe, she stated lot of useful tips to bake a successful souffle and I found one important word...she mentioned "foolproof" recipe and I said to myself, hey, may be I can try baking souffle too :) Don't laugh at me when you see that I'm not using the traditional ramekins to bake these souffle. I'm too eager to try the souffle recipe without having time to get the proper porcelain containers!
Before baking...
After this baking, I understand why the traditional way to make souffle is using the porcelain containers (ramekins) instead of using the normal paper cups. The normal paper cup purely can't do the job! It doesn't hold the souffle once out from the oven, the souffle lifted very high in the oven but fell rather quickly, not even single side photo taken for the souffle in paper cups. The paper cup souffle beside my green porcelain also fell flat after the top view shooting :(

Cranberry Chocolate Roulade
Waiting for quite some time before I recieved Carol's baking books. My first try on her recipe is... roulade. I must say that I like Carol's baking books. I love the step-by-step photos and tips which she took effort to compile. I'm using Carol's Banana Chocolate Roulade recipe and steps to make Cranberry Chocolate Roulade, and replaced the banana with dried cranberries. Attached is the ingredients used but not the steps, the original recipe is in Mandarin which I don't think that I can translate it accurately.
