Fill a piping bag fitted with star piping tip with half of the dough, it is easier to do with half the dough as I find it heavy. When oil is ready pipe dough into oil, I use my finger to stop the dough but you can use a utensil of you want. I pipe hearts into oil and fingers and pigs tails my kids call them hehehe. They only take about 2 minutes in oil. Flipping them til nicely browned.

Sweet n Sour Meatballs » RecipeCollage.com » April 10, 2025 — We like to use our Cast iron wok for this dish but any larger skillet and or pan will work. Get your wok nice and hot, add your vegetable oil, onions, garlic, and some Thai Chilis (we reserve some to throw on-top when done). We stir fry for a couple minutes til onions start to soften. Then I add in cooked meatballs stir all around. Cook another few minutes

Stir in your pineapples now. Some thicken this with a cornstarch/water mixture but we don’t find its needed.

Turkey Curry

Turkey Curry » RecipeCollage.com » April 10, 2025 — This is a Japanese Curry and we love it! It’s excellent with any meat or fish. One thing we love about Curry is you can literally put anything in them. We like the S&B Curry Brand but they have many others. Each box makes 2 meals. You can also buy it in mild or hot flavour. We get the hot flavour. We don’t find it very spicy, I always add jalapenos and Thai Chili’s as well.
You just need half the box mix
Onion chopped
Carrots chopped
Potatoes chopped
Roughly 2CUPS turkey or what meat/fish your using
Then that’s where my leftovers come in handy

Turkey Curry » RecipeCollage.com » April 10, 2025 — Add all your raw veggies, turkey, sauce pack and 6cups of water to a stock pot. Bring to boil and light boil down til nicely thickened.

Sticky Rice Cakes

Sticky Rice Cakes » RecipeCollage.com » April 10, 2025 — There’s 3 process’s to this recipe but it’s worth it! Steam, Dehydrate & Deep Fry.

2CUPS rice
Salt
1/2CUP brown cane sugar
1TSP milk
Roasted sesame seeds
I used 2CUPS rice in this recipe but it all depends on how many you want to make. I like to soak the rice for an hour or so and rinse well afterwards. Then steam with some salt.

We were showin’ how to use Saran wrap (plastic wrap) to make the cakes. Makes the shape great, we find you can pack it well and nothing sticks, it’s a win win. We place a few tablespoons of steamed rice on saran wrap, close up the saran, taking all air out. Giving pressure to rice and making a firm ball. Then we loosen the saran wrap and flatten it down with our palms.

Lucky is supervising! As always lol

Lucky saids, look at those cakes?! Kids did awesome! Heheh

Sticky Rice Cakes » RecipeCollage.com » April 10, 2025 — Deep fry at 350F for about 1-2minute per side. While those are frying you want to cook down your cane sugar on low heat. Once that cooks down, remove from heat and add milk and stir well. Makes it easier to drizzle, tastes great and still sets well. I also toast up my sesame seeds same time as well if you don’t already have some on hand. When the cakes come out of the fryer lay them out on paper towel to remove excess oil.

We drizzle some then put sesame seeds down then drizzle some more then put more sesame seeds down. These are best the day of making. But can be eaten until days later. Let us know what you think!
