Re-opening Chota Homemade Delicacies: Ditha's Order for Her Mom's Birthday

Oh, hello!
It's Sunday afternoon and I'm exhausted but I'm proud to say that I am back to my kitchen! HAA!!

It felt great taking an order from Ditha for her mother's birthday. I had not take orders since... months ago, so this time, I just believe in my guts to take an order of 2 dozens of chicken mayo risolles and 2 dozens of chocolate almond tartlets. Quite brave, huh? Hahahahaha...

Yesterday afternoon I went grocery shopping and when I got home, I rushed to the kitchen and started to make the ganache filling for the chocolate almond tartlets. After that, I prepared chicken mayo filling for the risoles, made the crepes from scratch, filled, folded, rolled the risolles and froze them neatly. And then I started to feel tired, hahahahaha. Not to mention, a wedding party after that and tartlets filling session before I finally hit the bed at 1 a.m.

Finally Sunday came and risolles were not fried yet. I woke up quite late (6.30), thawed the risolles, prepared the boxes, and fried them all. At 10 a.m, I was standing in front of Ditha's house and rang a bell.

What a relieve to see her mother's expression when I handed the boxes and said, "Happy birthday, Tante. These are from your lovely daughter, Ditha."

Here are some pictures of them. I was really in a rush so don't expect great pictures. Next time, I'll take more time to shoot drooling images :P

Happy customers are worth the pain... yes, my both arms are in pain from rolling too many risoles and filling too many tartlets, hahahaha..

Thanks Ditha for the order. Next order, please.. :D
