My class party is coming soon. Mamarazzi was wondering what to pack for me to bring for the party. Many mommies would be baking cupcakes and muffins . Think there would be muffins/cupcakes overload there. Last term, Cikgu even packed some muffins for us to bring home.
Mamarazzi is thinking making something simple. Maybe Water chestnut Thong Sui?
It's so easy to make. Just need a few Water chestnut. Chop them up .
Let them boil in Pandan Leaves and sugar water. Slowly add whipped eggs.
And the Thong sui is ready. Can drink Chilled or warm. But the only problem is how to pack it? Should she bring the whole pot to the kiddie and let the helper there serve the children or should she go and buy those paper cups with cover and fill it and bring to the kiddie?
Good for the kids, healthy and delicious !
ReplyDeletethinking of that too
Deletemake water chestnut jelly la.... very pretty
ReplyDeletejelly ah....hmmm...that's a good idea
DeleteNo junk food, it is good for them!!! I think if she has the time, take the pot to the teacher. Either way, they will still need cups, but maybe the school has some.
ReplyDeleteschool sure have cups but not sure if the teachers have time to distribute
DeleteI think bring the whole pot over sounds better.
ReplyDeleteNice idea of boiling tong sui to school. I never thought of that.
still thinking. undecided yet
DeleteOoohh, ma tai tong sui, I like.. Very crunchy and "heong" tong sui.. I also always tapau this tong sui if I pass by that place.. I somemore told my hubby, wah looks like birds nest tong sui.. They put jelly strips inside too, together with the ma tai and egg.. So it really looks (and taste) like birds nest, teehee..
ReplyDeleteOh yes, class party coming soon.. 27th is Children's Day.. Kz's kindy will be having Children's Day + Teacher's Day celebration together on that day.. Inside the message book, the teachers already ask what food we are sponsoring.. I will be bringing cupcakes.. Nope, not make myself, I ordered from home-baker in my condo lor, senang..
If me, I prefer to scoop up and pack into individual plastic bowls+cover.. If bring the whole pot there, later they have to find bowls la, spoons la, then wana scoop la.. Human ahh, very funny.. If served in front of you, sure will take and habis all.. If ask you go and take yourself, sure lazy one, kekekekee...
our side here not limut. it's up to the parents what they wanna contribute
DeleteLet the helper serve there la!!! That one got to filled up one by one then bring it there is kind of troublesome lo!! That's just what I will do probably!!!
ReplyDeletescared spill on the way
Deletegood idea Mamarazzi!! i think there sure must be many cupcakes and muffins the other kids are bringing, and somemore after eating too many cupcakes and muffins, sure thirsty and can get heaty easily also.. nice to have the water chestnut drinks to quench the thirst and also to cool down the body lah.. somemore, it's so easy to prepare yet such good stuffs..
ReplyDeletethat was what mamarazzi was thinking too
Deletehmmm, yeah, don't bring the whole pot lah.. just put them into separate containers, like bottles or cups better, and then better still, allow names to be written on the bottles or cups so that the kids won't get the messed up which is whose.. or better still, let Small Kucing tell the names of each of the kids, then Mamarazzi write them on beforehand.. when delivered to the kindie and distribute to the kids, calling the names is like giving out presents.. sure the kids will be more happy :)
ReplyDeletewrite name ah...hmmm was thinking for two classes. Teachers Day they very hectic type. Dont think they have time call name and take. More like buffet type
Deleteawwww.. so nice lah, class party on the last day of the term to celebrate school holidays!! Uncle SK miss that so much.. last time the teacher will ask every student to say what they will be bringing, so that there will not be too many repeat or same kind of food.. are the teacher doing this ah?? still remember there were so many things to eat, like fried noodles, curry chicken, sausages, chicken wings, jelly, drinks, cakes and so on - last time not "heng" cupcakes and sort so we don't have that, mostly cooked food~~ miss that!!
ReplyDeletefunny wor...not on the last day of the term wor..... going to be on monday
DeletePut in small plastic drink container to kindie?
ReplyDeletewas thinking of that too but duno if in the car can tumpah or not
DeleteCan buy those clear plastic cups with cover. Very convenient for individual servings. Want to bring the whole periuk to school quite susah. Got to bring bowls some more.
ReplyDeletehmmm....will look into that yea.
DeleteOOhh I love this ma tai tong sui! But smallkucing, not to be a pain here but it's water chestnut and not watercress nut ya.. Just thought you might wanna know! :)
ReplyDeleteyea lo...typo error. SK already contacted me about that
DeleteI thought you make jelly from the watercress nuts.. I like to drink this.. lots of work though.. have to peel off skin.. this is called ma tai kang... not cheap if order in coffeeshops...
ReplyDeleteeh easy to make leh
DeleteI thought you make jelly from the watercress nuts.. I like to drink this.. lots of work though.. have to peel off skin.. this is called ma tai kang... not cheap if order in coffeeshops...
ReplyDeleteI never drank this with egg before. But I heard water chesnut are good for health. But I never like the taste. hehe..... Hmm..... if me, I will bring the whole pot to the kindy and let them served the kids there.
ReplyDeleteMamarazzi like the crunchy and sweet taste
DeleteAh, I didn't know can make tong sui with water chestnut. I usually make into the water chestnut cakes. Thanks for this post! Gave me a good idea on how to use up the frozen bag of water chestnuts in my freezer. It will be great for us to have now in Autumn here where the weather is so dry now. Thanks Mamarazzi!
ReplyDeletelike the others said...can make into jelly too
DeleteI salute your Mamarazzi. She can cook almost anything edible under the sun! You better marry a good wife who will learn all your mummy's recipes.
ReplyDeletelater I have to cook pulak
DeleteI would suggest that you carry the pot of Thong Sui to the kiddies and scoop them into the cups for everyone to drink on the spot. Hope your friends will enjoy the treat!
ReplyDeletehope so gua...
DeleteIn the end, how u bring to school?
ReplyDeleteduno yet...monday is the party
DeleteGood and yum. I love such simple and quick fix-up for its loveable taste.
ReplyDeletecoz mamarazzi lazy to do lot of work
DeleteI have boiled this tong shui some times ago, very nice!
ReplyDeleteNow lazy a bit, cause lazy to remove the skin of the waterchestnut, hehehe :p
quite easy to remove the skin la for the mah thai
DeleteThis tong sui is tasty but a bit difficult to bring in the car. May spill. Please update us on how you brought it to the school later. Thanks.
ReplyDeletewe'll see how
DeleteSo easy? Unbelievable!

Deletei say bring the pot & let them portion it out there. quicker, easier.. just all round better, imo (:
