Raphael has yet to post the picture to me even after you told him to send me the picture.  I gave him the email to send to since he refused to WhatsApp me the picture.  He kept saying he knows but never do it.  I have waited for one week and reminded him for 5 days.  Now is 10pm, and you asked us to submit by today 24 Jan 17

What I have learnt from the lesson.2. Ondeh Ondeh is one of my favourite snacks, I was excited to learn how to prepare this snack.  I enjoyed kneading the dough in the process I learned how to gauge whether the dough is too hard or too soft, to form into small balls with the palm sugar.  It was a fun experiencethat I had, I guess learning to knead the dough is the very basic step in preparing other snacks with different types of flour.  I look forward to improve my knowledge in dough preparations and kneading, and master the skill to knead the dough well.3. As this is my first time making ondeh ondeh.  I believe that if I practise more, I will be able to knead the dough better and finish making making the ondeh ondeh on time.

This pic of ondeh was finally email by Raphael 16 Feb 2017

The ondeh ondeh is difficult to cook.You need to boil it correctly or else it will taste funny/weird.You must also beat the batter correctly if not it will be sticky.Luckily,i had my partner to help me and guide me along the way. I think we put too much gula melaka as it was too sweet. Without my parnter,i dont think i would finish making an ondeh ondeh.

i think pouring the correct amount of food colouring was difficult. i overcomed it by asking my friends to teach me how to do it.I learnt that when bubbles come out it is bolied.my ondeh ondeh tasted soft and the palm sugar melted just right when i ate it,i think i could have made it nicer if more palm sugar was added.,

we could not gauge whether the ondeh ondeh was cooked properly. My patterner and I sovled the problem by waiting until the ondeh ondeh floats to the surface of the water and wait for 30 more seconds before taking it out. To properly boil the ondeh ondeh you must be able to have patience to wait for the ondeh ondeh to be cooked. The appearance of the ondeh ondeh would be a sphere shaped but sometimes its imperfect. The taste of the ondeh ondeh is sweet.

Q3b:when the water is boiled the water will start to bubble up
Q3c:we must not touch the hot water
Q4: It taste not bad
Q5: 1) we must have teamwork
2) I should beat the batter more

we could not tell if the ondeh ondeh was boiling or not so we checked if the ondeh ondeh changed colour. Unfortunately, the outside of my ondeh ondeh was cooked but the inside was uncooked :( I thought that i should have added more water in the pan so we could see if the ondeh ondeh finished boiling
I should have not made the ondeh ondeh so big as it looked very big
and round

i put too much flour and i messed up sorry everyone

It was hard to add the colouring while the dough was still a little dry. I found the problem and I solved it. Before I could put it into the water, I had to roll it into a ball and add the sugar. I also had to wait for the Ondeh Ondeh to fully cook before putting coconut on it. It was fun to cook the Ondeh Ondeh and I really enjoy FCE. I really want a harder challenge and I would improve in my cooking skills.

2)
-The pot was hot and is hard to put in the Ondeh-Ondeh into the pot

3)
-I tried to drop the ondeh-ondeh inside

4)
-It makes the ondeh-ondeh float
-It makes water hot
-It evaporates water

5) It is tasty

6)
-Have more teachers to help students
-Have more utensils prepared

My Ondeh was not really cooked because the water was really shallow. So I had to guess whether the ondeh was cooked or not.
I learnt that boiling takes a long time and I need to boil with deeper water. The ondeh also took a short time to cook.

My ondeh 's texture was perfect. However, some was uncooked because the gula Melaka did not cook.

my recommendations are to add more water to make deeper water and

When we added the palm sugar and put the dough over it, it tends to break so we had to make sure it did not break before putting it in the water.

The Ondeh-Ondeh was not that cooked as it was chewy and not cooked on the inside. I should have had a better sense of when it would be cooked.

It was a bit hard to add in the green food colouring and pandan flavouring  as we had to pour both into the mixture directly from the bottle.

We first used a spoon to pour in the pandan extract. However, for the food colouring, we poured some into the bottle cap and then poured it into the mixture to add them in controlled amounts.

When put to cook in the boiling water, the green colour was a lot more noticeable as it had turned a darker and more vibrant green. The pandan extract and the food colouring had to be added in controlled amounts. The bigger the ondeh ondeh, the longer it took to cook.

Most of the ondeh ondehs came out nicely, they were not too big and not too small. However, the was some gula melaka coming out of the ondeh ondeh. Taste and texture wise, some were chewy and so lesser flour must be used.

I plan to do better by observing the texture of the mixture carefully in future.

In the cooking lesson i faced some diffculty when i was boiling, the Ondeh-ondeh was cooking very slowly, to solve this i had to increase the fire alot to speed the process up but the water dried up faster.
The 3 things i learnt about boiling is that
1. Boiling takes time to heat up
2. Boiling is an easy way to cook
3. If the water is left alone to boil it will dry up
The Ondeh-ondeh i made looked tasty
but it tasted like dough with sugar inside

(picture not with me)

Q: What are the difficulties faced when you boil the food?
A:I was afraid that I would get scalded when I put the ondeh-ondeh into the boiling hot water.
Q: What did you do to overcome these difficulties?
A: I put the ondeh-ondeh into the water gently so the water will not splash onto me and scald me.
Q: What did you discover about boiling? (3 things you learnt)
A: 1. The bigger the ondeh-ondeh, the more time it takes to cook it.
2.The colour of the boiling water will change as the ondeh-ondeh has green food colouring in it.
3.We should not put too much ondeh-ondeh inside the pot of boiling water as it will slow down the time to cook the ondeh-ondeh.
Q: Describe the ondeh-ondeh which you have prepared in terms of appearance.

A: The ondeh-ondeh looks light green in colour and spheric in shape.  Its texture is quite smooth and the taste is nice and not too chewy.
Q: What are 2 recommendations that you would suggest to improve the practical and why.
A: 1. We should measure the amount of water and flour to mix together so that the mixture would not be too dry or too runny.
2. We should also measure the amount of pandan essence and food colouring to put into the mixture so the taste would not be too strong and the colouring would not be too dark or light.

2)
-The pot was hot when I was trying to put in the Ondeh-Ondeh into the pot.
-Putting the gula melaka was hard as it smudge with the ondeh.

3)
-I tried to hold the tip on the spoon while putting the ondeh-ondeh in the pot.
-I carefully cut the gula melaka into small pieces and put it inside the Ondeh-Ondeh.

4)
-The ondeh-ondeh would float up
-Boiling too long would evaporate the water.
-Boiling too long would make the ondeh-ondeh overcook
-The ondeh-ondeh texture was soft and it tasted perfect with the mixture of the flour and sugar.

5)
-Have more teachers to help the students
-Prepare the bowls and utensilsbefore the lesson start.

ryan has not sent me the photo of the ondeh ondeh yet i will ask him as soon as possible next time

what i have learnt from cooking the ondeh ondeh.
I find that making the ondeh ondeh was a challenge as it required alot of hand cordination and beating the dough was new to me so i was not able to do well for the results but i have learnt that the ondeh ondeh has made me have more confidence in myself as in the start,i thought that the ondeh ondeh that our teacher showed us was too difficult for me as i did not cook alot of stuff at home so i had no experience in cooking the ondeh ondeh but after trying to make the ondeh ondeh myself i feel that making it is kind of easy so next time i have more confidene in myself

2. From the lesson, I learnt to make Ondeh-ondeh. I learnt to mix the flour and pandan juice well. This step is not easy as I must make sure that the mixture has no lumps.
3. The problem I faced during the lesson is that I was not able to be confident in making the food. I was so afraid that I might make mistakes that it take up alot of my time. As such my partner and I are not able to complete in time.
