  4. Thanks Lucy, I finally bake this bread. But used apple sauce instead of kiwi jam and top with chopped walnut. Turn out nice too.

  5. Hi Aunty

    I have a packet of 'tim-sum' flour (not opened) yet. May I ask what can I do with this flour. It is a waste if left untouched. Any easy recipe to make ?

    I am sure I can't use this flour for bread, right ?

    Thanks.
