Woops
So I have wanted to try this recipe for Bánh Bò Nuong(Vietnamese honeycomb cake) for the last two months. It didn't quite turn out the way I expected. It called for single action baking powder which I thought I found. However I couldn't seem to find my measuring spoons tonight so I just took a guess at what 2 teaspoons was. Also the recipe I used didn't say what size pan to use. Apparently I was wrong about something. When I pulled it out of the oven it was almost touching the top of the door. It was larger than a basketball.
Less than 3 minutes later it deflated and now looks like this.
I wish I had the sense to video it as it died a quick and dramatic death.
Even though it looked really pathetic I had to try it. It tasted nothing like cake, more like a lightly sweet glutinous omelet.

Hm, that being said. You should see a chinese movie called "The God of Cookery". Part Iron Chef (before there was an Iron Chef) and part kung-fu action thriller.
