Buns with creamy coconut sauce

Have you tried bun with a twist. Yesterday we christianed the new outdoor oven with various baked goods. One of it was the coconut cream buns. Here we used the following receipe;
1x 7g dry yeast
1 cup warm water
Pinch of Salt
1 egg beaten
2 tablespoon vegetable oil
3 cups plain shifted wholemeal or plain flour

Coconut Cream Sauce
1 cup coconut cream
2 tablespoon sugar

Method
Place warm water in a bowl and add the yeast to it. To ensure the yeast is activated sit it for 10mins or longer depending on the activation of the yeast.
After 10 mins pour the mixture into a bigger bowl.
Add the egg, sugar, oil, and pinch of salt.
Then add flour and mix with a fork until it forms into a sticky dought. Then knead it working from the sides in. Add extra flour if need be to ensure that it gives you a nice elastic feel.
Place dough in a bowl cover with a clean cloth and leave it in a warm place for 1 hour. After an hour the dought should raise giving you a nice mushroom shape.
Punch in the centre and knead again then roll into a retangular shape then into a long sausage shape lenghtwise. Cut into 9 equal size scrolls shaped into a nice dome and place on a baking tray giving space between each bun for activation. Brush top with sauce cover with cloth place in a warm place for 20-40mins.
Once it has double in size pour the rest of the cream over the bun and bake for 25 mins. Oven should be at 180 degree celcius. When it turns golden brown remove from the over and cool down.

Sauce
Scrape coconut then extract the pure cream. Put into into cream and stir until sugar dissolves.

My Mother's Story (Mercia Paliou)

On this International Woman's Day, I wanted to share my mum's story on her journey and her aspirations in life. To also give us a glimpse into what life was like back then and what they did to build the young PNG nation. I would not be where I am today if she did not first embark on her own journey of education, career marriage and life. My mother's journey began in her village of Dogur in the Dagua LLG of the East Sepik Province. She was born on the 6th of September 1947. She already had 5 older siblings and she was the 5th born with 2 others after her. Born to parents who were subsistence farmers their lives revolve around fishing, gardening, hunting and gathering food to feed the family. A typical village day would consist of women going to the garden, to work on their vegetables patches whilst the man would go hunting/setting traps for bandicoot or fishing in the small creeks, rivers or the sea. Their stable diet is sago so each family has their own sago plots in th...

Toana Dei & Meri Blouse

On April 28 1978, the government declared that Friday should be set aside as a national dress day. Citizens were encourage to wear their cultural wear to work or school. The day was referred to as Toana day. The thinking behind that day was to encourage cultural embracement and initiate a national wear which in time will take on its style and become the national wear for contemporary PNG. Toana is from the motuan language 3rd widely spoken language in PNG and it means a symbol or a sign. A fitting word to signify the day. I am taking up this space again to feature one piece of unique clothing that has come to make its mark in PNG known as the Meri Blouse.Little did they envisage what the meri blouse would become to PNG woman.And meri blouse was introduce by Missionaries to help cover bare breast woman in the colonial days. Highly criticise as shapeless and without form created to hide the beautiful curvy body of Melanesian woman meri blouse has stood its time and held it's ...

Memoirs of an Entrepreneur (Pricing)

Pricing is something that most of us take for granted. Am not sure if you really think about price apart from when there is a price increase. Have you ever wondered how people price goods and services and what should be the correct way of pricing your items. If you price too high you will loose customers and if you price too low then you will not make a profit so there is a place where you need to come too rightly to price items. As a christian there is also God's pespective on pricing. The book of levitcus is where God instructed the Isrealites on how to price items 26: 14 And if thou sell ought unto thy neighbour, or buyest ought of thy neighbour’s hand, ye shall not oppress one another: God is very clear he does not want us to oppress another brother by putting our price too high that they struggle to buy our item and if they do they forgo other necessecities that they need in life. When you are pricing your good or service what is the first thing that comes to min...
