Easy to Cook: Blackened Tilapia Fillets

Posted on October 14th, 2008 by Fashion Juice (Admin) | Leave a Comment »

It’s been awhile since I got the chance to feature a recipe that’s why I’m making one now. After all, I am trying to limit myself from too much fashion posts because I get the urge to shop while doing it. Haha! I mean come on! If you were me, doing posts about shopping, you get to see all sorts of stuff. And the more options you see, the more you’ll find something that you want. That means – more expense! Anyway, so here, I’m taking a break from all the shopping gaga. I don’t however, want to disappoint my fashion readers. So don’ worry. It’s just like having a coffee or tea break after too much eating (or shopping in this case). After all, ladies have to serve their loved ones, right? Don’t just focus too much in the shopping, be a well-rounded fashionista! Learn to add fashion to everyday activities such as cooking. Let’s learn how to glam up that Tilapia!

Mocha Cake Recipe

Posted on February 26th, 2008 by Fashion Juice (Admin) | 1 Comment »

Yesterday, February 25, was hubby’s bday… It was a looooooooooooong day… Was so busy with all the preparations, so wasn’t able to post much. It has been a while that I’ve posted a recipe. So here, I’m showing you the mocha cake I’ve made for my hubby. I’m sharing the recipe (errrrr… more like how to prepare). I had so much to do for his bday that I have to make an instant cake not look like an instant cake. Since Fashion Juice is all about fashion, why not glam up an instant cake as well? haha…

NOTE: The frosting I used was made from scratch! I adopted it from Martha Stewart’s Meringue Frosting.

Banana Cake

This all-time classic is such a breeze to make! If you’re looking for something to make out of those bananas just sitting in your kitchen, banana cake is the answer! My mom makes this all the time. I especially love the outer part. I love nibbling on that crusty-like texture. I don’t like nuts in my cake but I added it here in case you’re a nut-lover. Anyway, here’s the recipe. Happy baking!

Broiled Chicken With Raita

Posted on February 8th, 2008 by Fashion Juice (Admin) | Leave a Comment »

Don’t you just love Mediterranean food? From time to time, I crave for some Mediterranean slash Indian dishes. Back in Manila, my Team Lead introduced me to this great Indian Restaurant, Ziggurat (see pic below). The place is small but cozy! Customers sit on pillows as they enjoy delicious food. They have Hookah by the way. Another resto that I love is Cafe Mediterranean. They’ve got branches at Greenbelt, Rockwell, and Alabang. I’m just not sure about the other branches, but before I get carried away, here’s a recipe of Broiled Chicken with Raita. I soooo love Raita! I use it as a dip not just for chicken but for beef, pork, and even chips!

Grilled Teriyaki Chicken

Posted on February 8th, 2008 by Fashion Juice (Admin) | Leave a Comment »

This is not your usual Chicken Teriyaki recipe. Chicken Teriyaki is usually made up of small cuts or pieces of chicken with a thick yummy sauce. This is entirely different. This recipe calls for big chicken cuts. It only makes use of that Teriyaki sauce as marinade and that’s just about how Teriyaki it gets. Here, we’ll cook the chicken in a turbo broiler or grill. The picture below shows how mine turned out. Sorry about the photo as I was in a hurry I only used my mobile phone to take it.
