I will share my very secret of making a very delicious biko. Have you tried biko with condensed milk? Well that's my secret :-). Everybody who can taste this, always tell me that it is very yummy. Try this recipe and let me know.


Ingredients:
1 kilo Glutinous Rice
3 cups  water
1 cup coconut milk

Procedure:
1. In a pot put the glutinous rice, water and coconut milk then cook over medium heat, once boiling adjust the heat to low then continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until done.

While waiting for the rice to be cooked, let us prepare the following for our coconut-sugar syrup. 

3  cups coconut milk
1/4 kilo sugar
1/2 cup condensed milk

Procedure:
1. Put everything in a wok then bring to a boil, when boiling lower the heat and continue to simmer and stir until it thickens.
2. Add the cooked glutinous rice and mix evenly, then continue to stir until it is done.
3. Cool and serve with smile. You can top it with latik or the syrup for extra flavor and aroma or just serve it plain.

How To Make Nutella


While eating Nutella, I read the ingredients at the label then I became curious and tried making it. Here is the result of my curiosity.

Ingredients:
1 cup hazelnuts (toasted)
1/2 cup sweetened cocoa powder
1 cup skim milk powder
30 ml  vegetable oil
120 ml fresh milk
pinch of salt



Procedure:
1. Put the hazelnuts in a blender then blend until it is powder, add all the ingredients and continue blending until you reached the consistency of  a good spread texture, just like Nutella.
2. Now get a bread and taste the nutella that you make :-).


Frankly speaking I have a hard time making this it took me almost and hour, it's difficult because it stuck in the blade of the blender that's why I need to mix it a lot of time with a spoon. After making this I shouted whew!! I will just buy Nutella next time I will not do this again, it's not worth it then I grabbed a slice of bread and put some of the homemade nutella and it put a smile on my face :-). It tastes so good but still, the original Nutella is the best.

I will not do this again
