Homemade Steamed Chocolate Brownies

Image
Who doesn't love chocolate brownies? It is a piece of flat rich chocolate cake, bitter-sweet, and delicious. This cake is very popular in Indonesia now. My son really loves it. There are two variants of brownies; steamed brownies and baked brownies. Which one is your favorite? Me, love steamed one.

I like to make my own chocolate brownies. It's quite easy. Thank God I have a very lovely assistant in my kitchen, my son is my little partner who always helps me to make some cakes and desserts.

Making brownie is pretty simple. Here it is, the chocolate brownie recipe, the ingredients are eggs, sugar, compound dark chocolate, butter/margarine/cooking oil, vanilla, flour, and salt. You just only have to mix it all together then steam or bake it. There are some sprinkles that you can add, such as cheese, Oreo, almond, or chocolate chips.  Another variation of brownie made with brown sugar, it is called a blonde-brownie.

This is it,

Making chocolate brownies generally consist of three basic steps; Butter and chocolate melted, egg and sugar that's mixed together, and lastly put a little flour. Most brownies recipes begin with melting butter and cooking chocolate. The safest way for this process is to use two different size pans. Big pot filled with boiling water, then place a small bowl to melt the dark chocolate, stir until the chocolate melts, and another pan is for melting the butter. Mix all together with adding the mix egg and sugar, then put the flour little by little. Do not be too long mixing because the brownies will become wet, dense, and chewy. It will cause hard brownies or thin dry layers on the surface of the cake.

If you don't want to make the chocolate brownies from scratch, you can make the simplest brownie by using premix flour. You only need to add some melted butter and egg, mix all together, then steam for about 30 minuets. Tadaaaa... chocolate brownie is ready to serve. 

The form of classic brownie is commonly square or bar, but you can also bake or steam the brownies in small muffin molds, it will look like muffin or cupcake. I love to eat brownies accompanied by a cup of tea, coffee, or milk. It's so yummy. 

A slice of brownies can never be enough

Keep The Children Healthy during Ramadan

Shaum/Sawm is one of The Five Pillars of Islam. Ramadan (a complete fasting), we do the fast for about 29 or 30 days in a row. It is the Holy Month for Muslims. Those twelve years old and above must complete their fast from dawn to sunset.  I've started to teach my child to fast from the last two years when he was 6 years old, even he's just done his first fast for only a couple hours, at least he tried. There are many even as young as four or five are encouraged to fast for a few hours a day during Ramadan by their parents. It's to begin appreciating the significance of the Holy month of Ramadan. Alhamdulillah , I'm very grateful, this Ramadan my son now is 8 years old and so excited about following Ramadan completely.

Eat healthy food and don't forget to cook meat or fish thoroughly.  Drink water, take vitamins or supplements.  Do some home exercises to keep your body healthy. Cover mouth when coughing or sneezing with flexed elbow. Avoid close contact with anyone with cold/flu like symptoms. Do not touch your our eyes, nose, face, or mouth if our hands are not clean.

The Music-Obsessed Kid in Me Finally Got Her Wish

My earliest memories are steeped in music, all thanks to my mom. Actually she's a classical guitar player, and I can still picture her when her fingers dancing on the fret-board. She was the first person to teach me how to play guitar when I was just in elementary school. There's something beautiful and pure about the way she plays.  As I grew older, my fascination with music just expended. I was itching to learn more! I remember practically begging my parents for classical music lessons especially the violin and the piano. Unfortunately, life had other plans, We had just moved into a new house, and our savings were dedicated to school and settling in, so lessons just weren’t in the budget at that time. Honestly, though, it was fine.  When I was in junior high, my dad surprised me with a keyboard. I dove right into learning it, and I've loved having it.
