DD made these for lunch. Bacon n cheese filled ravioli with a tangy tomato and scallop sauce.

Now as she is busy making the crepe for a crepe cake for father's day while I just sit and stare at my garden thinking if I should do something now that it has stopped raining.

so sweet of yr dd, Funz..crepe cake sounds like need alot more work lei..very good gal!

Both are tedious. She made the ravioli from scratch. Had trouble rolling out the pasta dough into the desired thickness cos it keeps shrinking back.

any advice on how to whip cream until it's fluffy? I can't seem to get the lightness right.

It took DD a few tries. DD bought Emborg and it was a total fail. It did not even reach anything remotely light and fluffy and when she whipped it further the fats separated and she ended up with butter. Gave her the recipe that I usually use and drove her to the supermarket to buy more whipping cream. Bought President whipping cream this time and used gelatine as a stabilizer.

Cream has to be whipped cold, straight out of the fridge. So get all your sugar and gelatine ready first before you take the cream out to whip.
Add 1tsp gelatine to 4tsp water. Let it sit for a while. Microwave it in short bursts of a few seconds each until the gelatine dissolves. Set it aside to let it cool. In a mixing bowl, put 240ml cold whipping cream, 30g powdered sugar and 1/2 tsp vanilla essence, combine then whip to soft peak. Put the mixer on low speed then slowly add the gelatine. Once all the gelatine is mixed in, turn the mixer up on high speed and whip to stiff peak. Stop whipping once stiff peak forms.

If you don't need the cream to hold it's shape for long, then skip the gelatine.

hmmm...I could have used emborg & Paul's...both weren't as light as I wanted. Ever over-whipped so was quite wary and always stopped once it looked stiff.

Thanks...maybe I'll try the gelatin part if I find any at home
