The *ultimate* toasted rice krispie treats! 15

The *ultimate* toasted rice krispie treats!

150g rice krispie rice cereal
200g mini marshmallows
115g unsalted butter
2 tbsp milk powder (optional but recommended – approx. 15g)
½ tsp vanilla paste or extract
Pinch of flaky sea salt or @maldonsalt smoked salt

Preheat oven to 160°C (fan 140°C). Spread rice cereal on a lined tray and toast for 8–10 minutes, stirring halfway, until lightly golden. Set aside.
Place half (100g) of mini marshmallows on a lined tray. Use a blow torch if you have one to toast them until charred, or put the tray under a hot broiler/grill until charred in spots.
In a large saucepan i liked using my @lets.homebody , melt the butter over medium heat. Add milk powder, if using, and cook, stirring occasionally, until it foams and turns golden brown with a nutty aroma. Take off the heat.
Stir in all the marshmallows, toasted and untoasted. Pour in the vanilla. Stir until melted and smooth (return briefly to low heat if needed).
Add the toasted puffed rice and stir quickly to coat everything evenly.
Tip the mixture into a greased or parchment-lined 20cm square tin. Carefully press down firmly and evenly using a spatula- be careful as this mixture is very hot!
Sprinkle with a pinch of flaky or smoked salt.
Once set, slice into squares and enjoy!

The Breakfast Bao!! Crispy and caramelised char

The Breakfast Bao!!

Crispy and caramelised char siu bacon, fluffy spring onion omelette, crispy hashbrowns, and spicy mayo all inside a steamed gua bao 💯.

What would you put in yours??

This is a winner!!!! I could eat a whole steam basket full of them.

**If you don't eat bacon- try brushing the char siu sauce on some sliced mushrooms or even tempeh or mayeb tofu slices**🍄💚

Makes 2
2 steamed gua bao buns
2 eggs
2 spring onions, finely sliced
1 tsp toasted sesame oil
Salt and pepper to taste
2 slices cheese (optional)
4 bacon rashers
Char siu sauce @leekumkeesg
2-4 Hashbrowns, cooked
2 tbsp mayonnaise
2 tsp hot sauce

Preheat the oven to 200°C and line a tray with parchment paper. Arrange bacon in a single layer over the prepared tray and brush with char siu sauce to coat well.
Bake for 15 minutes or until caramelised, flipping halfway and glazing the other side. Alternatively, air fry at 180 for 8-10 minutes flipping halfway until caramelized and charred on the edges. Set aside to cool on a wire rack.
Whisk together eggs. Season with salt and pepper, then stir through sesame oil and finely chopped spring onions
Heat a pan over medium heat. Brush the pan with oil. Add half of the egg and swirl to create a thin layer. Once set, fold the egg into a square or rectangle roughly the same size as the bao. Top with the cheese and cover to melt
Steam the buns according to package directions. Mix together mayo and hot sauce together. Spread some on the bottom of the bun.
Build the bun with a hashbrown, topped with the egg followed by the bacon. Garnish with some more spring onions!
