I Cook: Egg Tart

Yesterday, I spent the whole day with a good friend, Wan Lin, baking egg tarts!!! It took us the whole day to bake as we spent half of the time chatting and watching tv :p...

The idea of baking egg tart started with Wan Lin not knowing what to do with her remaining annual leaves :p... So, we decided to spend a day baking egg tart using a recipe she found some time ago. We, of course improvised a little ;)...

The result of our hard work :D...

Proud!!!
