Thank God Blogger's back! Yay!
Anyway...
Last Mothers Day my sister and I decided to cook breakfast for our Mom -- like we always do. We prepared: American Style Hash Browns and Banana Crepes.
And here's how you do it:
Banana Crepe
There are three important ingredients in making a Banana Crepe: bananas, cream, and the crepe. Since the cream needs to be chilled before spreading it on the crepe, we have to prepare it first. Here's how:
What You Need:
2 250mL Nestle All Purpose Cream
1 250mL Alaska Condensed Milk
A pinch of salt
Directions:
1. Mix the all purpose cream with the condensed milk. Whip until you achieve your desired consistency.
2. Add a pinch of salt.
3. Transfer in a clean bowl, cover with cling wrap or foil, and place in the freezer to chill.
And now we do the crepe...
What You Need:
1 box pancake mix (I suggest you use Maya)
2 eggs
1 cup of water
2 tbsp cooking oil
Directions:
1. Just simply follow the instructions written at the back of the pancake mix.
2. In my case, I first let the pancake mix dissolve in the water, add the eggs, and the oil.
3. Mix until there are no lumps.
4. Be sure to make is as thin or crepe-like thin as possible. You don't want to end up eating a banana pancake.
Now that we're done with the cream and crepe, it's not time to prepare the bananas. Simply slice it into smaller pieces until you're certain you have enough bananas for your crepe.
Take one (1) crepe, and spread cream on the middle part. Add some bananas, put some more cream, then close the crepe. It's up to you if you want to garnish it with some more cream, nuts, or even other fruits on top.
American Style Hash Brown
An all-time family favorite! My sister was at first hesitant to share her recipe, but whatevs. It's good to share. Haha! FYI: You have to prepare the potatoes a day before cooking the hash browns.
What You Need:
Large white onions
Potatoes
3-5 cups of flour
3-4 eggs
A pinch of baking soda
Salt and Pepper to taste
Cooking Oil
Directions:
1. Wash your potatoes thoroughly. Make sure there aren't any dust left. Cut them into thin wedges, say 3/4 of an inch.
2. Wash the potatoes and pat to dry.
3. Cover it with tissue paper and pack in cling wraps or foil overnight.
The next day...
1. In a mixing bowl, mix the flour and eggs.
2. Add a pinch of baking soda.
3. Add salt and pepper, then set aside.
4. Chop your onions into thin strips, then add in your potato wedges.
5. Add the onions and potatoes on your flour and egg mixture, mix until the onions and potatoes are covered with the mixture.
6. Deep fry into perfection.
Serve these with a smile and kiss, and you'll surely make your momma proud! :)
