Polly's ROASTED BEETS

 I couldn't resist purchasing a bunch of giant fresh beets at the Davis Rach Sloughhouse.  Wash - scrub clean (do not peel) and Pressure Cook them for 3 minutes, then, slice, and roast with avocado oil and some salt.  It tastes really great.





Polly's 1ST BITTER MELON DISH

 I saw the bitter melons at the Asian grocery store many times and my mother serving it when I was young.   I have never tasted it.  It was just not appealing to me.  But for the medicinal benefit it claims, I finally decided to buy this beautiful bitter melon I found at the Walmart.  Goodness, it costed $2.89 for one.  I have been eating it every week.  Not sure if it has lowered my blood sugar or helping kidney, etc., but it's my first - Stir Fried Bitter Melon with Prime Beef.

It tasted bitter but quite refreshing afterwards.


Polly's QUICK FIX ROLLED MATCHA CHIFFON CAKE with GRAND MANIER CHANTILLY

 It's a 3 egg Chiffon rolled cake.  It started out as a cake, but by the time I gathered the ingredients, the Chiffon cake was the simplest and tastiest ones, so Chiffon it is.  Follow my 2 egg chiffon cake method https://rockdavinci.blogspot.com/2021/02/pollys-2-eggs-choco-raisin-chiffon-cake.html  just substitute it with Matcha and some ground flax seed mill, chopped organic raisins.






Pour onto buttered organic parchment paper.  Bake at low 325'F for 10 min or 12 min depending on the doneness.

Remove from oven and roll it up.  Cool.
Whip up heavy cream with some organic pandan powder, if desired.  As the heavy cream becomes flothy, add 1 to 2 teaspoon of Grand Manier.
Unroll the cake carefully and spread Apricot preserves all over.  Then fill with chantilly
Decorate as you like.
Yum!
