Healthy papaya smoothie with orange and lemon

My sister-in-law always prepares 2 or 3 papayas for me to bring home whenever the papayas are ripe in my hometown. Or, on occasion, I scale the tree to collect the ripe papayas one by one. When you eat it, you must eat it whole, or all the juice will drain away. To be delicious and healthy while having fun, blend a cup of papaya juice.

Papaya plays the role of moistening the lungs, according to the Traditional Chinese physician. It is simpler for the body to absorb enough nutrients when the lungs are adequately moisturized since they can better stimulate the blood. As a result, our skin becomes smooth, soft, and delicate, wrinkles are diminished, and the complexion is pink. The papaya's ability to enhance beauty is what makes it so popular among women.

In addition, the enzymes in papaya will aid in the breakdown of meat, lessen the strain on the digestive system, aid in digestion, and prevent constipation. Papaya can also soothe and improve the appearance of pregnant women and teenagers by balancing and enhancing the physiological and metabolic balance of their hormones.

Papaya is not only delicious but also has high nutritional value. More than 17 different types of amino acids, calcium, iron, etc. are all abundant in papaya. An adult can get enough vitamin C for the entire day with just half of the medium papaya. Papayas have 48 times more vitamin C than apples. In China, papaya is referred to as the "fruit of longevity."

Papayas have thick and delicate pulp, a strong aroma, and sweet and lots of juice, match with orange juice and lemon juice to create a tropical flavour. Orange juice can bring a tropical citrus punch to the smoothie.

If you read my blog about beverages, you will see that I never give my smoothie any milk or water. Orange juice is always incorporated into my smoothie. The orange is almost entirely liquid. Know that adding an orange to a smoothie on the fly is more like adding water than anything else. The orange flavour is at least preferable to water.

Let us get all the ingredients to hand and detailed instructions to make this tropical smoothie brightens your mood as much as it brightened mine.

500g papaya flesh

2 cups   fresh-squeezed orange juice, add more according to individual preference

Ondeh-Ondeh in 3 flavour (椰丝球)

Today made a popular dessert in Malaysia, “Ondeh Ondeh”, a type of Nyonya recipe. It is also called “Buah Melaka” because it looks like the fruit of the Malacca tree. The procedure of making is easy. The flavoured glutinous rice balls have grated fresh coconut on the outside and melting Gula Melaka, or palm sugar, inside. The white, milky coconut shreds and little balls of various colours appear fresh and natural. and has a charming appearance. The glutinous rice balls, soft glutinous and chewy are determined by the amount of water and cooking time. The softer the rice balls, the more water and more time it boiled. We like our coconut shreds to be moist and crisp, the melted Gula Melaka to be rich and flavorful, and the texture to be somewhat mushy and sticky. It seems like the nostalgic flavour of my childhood is returning. In addition to the traditional pandan flavour, I have included instructions for making it with sweet potatoes and pumpkin. Of all the flavours of "ondeh...

Pandan Coconut Moss Jelly Mooncake

Half a year has flown by in the blink of an eye, and it's almost Mid-Autumn Festival. It is fall in October this year. I've tried quite a few of jelly mooncakes last year. So, this year I am going to share some of jelly mooncakes that I love. Making jelly mooncakes isn't difficult, and I'm always eagerly anticipating the finished product, because there are always so many surprises when I cut into it.

Puding Lumut or “moss pudding is a type of jelly or jelly pudding originating from Indonesia, make with a mixture of agar-agar powder, eggs, coconut milk and sugar which is cooked until it forms a moss like mass. Today I am going to transform it into a mooncake.   Other than the beautiful moss from cooking and stirring the mixture. The white layer part that looks like shredded coconut which is actually made from the mixture of agar powder, fresh coconut water and coconut milk. Grate it after it is set...

Braised Pork Belly Char Siu on Stove

  Grilling char Siu is time-consuming? Yes, indeed!! The marinating and cooking steps involved in grilling char Siu might take a lot of time.   In order to allow the flavors to seep into the meat, the traditional process involves marinating the pork for a few hours, often overnight.   Additionally, grilling might take some time, particularly if you want that distinctive char. And also create a crispy surface and smoky flavor. You might say can make char siu, or Chinese BBQ pork with oven baking, or air frying. Oven baking produces an excellent crust and a balance of juiciness. Air fryer is the quickest way to produce a crispy outside and a soft within, although it might not cook as uniformly as oven baking. Today I am sharing a super easy stove top version. You even get a lovely sauce to go with it, and the results are just incredible. It lacks charred or roasted flavor of charcoal because it is cooked entirely on the hob.   Trust me, this method is definitely ...
