Pies and Tarts Baking Class with Chef Kevin

Had a nice class with Chef Kevin again at 08/04/2012.
We made 2 tarts and 2 pies.(Missed out to snap the photo of Mirliton tarts)

The Chicken Pie(Left) and Walnut Raisin Pie(Right)
I love the Walnut Raisin Pie, it's so rich to have it. A very nice taste pie.
The Chicken Pie was not bad though, need to be salty and add some black soy sauce to
made it more tasty look. 

The Pine Seed Tarts

Sweet Potato Fatt Guo

This is my first attempt of Fatt Guo since the few years back of failure attempts. I was so glad that the Fatt Guo I made today are so beautiful(as for my view). ^^ Happy on the result because this is first time I try this recipe from recipe book of Chef Andrew Kow. Made this Fatt Guo for Qing Ming Festival to bring it pray for Grandparents.

Love to see they are "smiling". ^^
