Mango mousse cake

My close friend Mary from Miri visited us this week. She is an expert in cake caking. We saw some cheap Bananas and Mangos on sale in the local oriental shop. We decided to make one banana lemon cake and one Mango mousse cake. The banana lemon was eaten up even before I could take a picture of it; simply delicious.
Below is the mango cake just taken out from the fridge.

5 egg yolks
100 gm. sugar
1/4 tsp. salt

Filling:
100 gm. sugar
18 gm. gelatine powder dissolved in 1/4 cup water

1. For cake: Mix ingredients (A) and stir till smooth.
2. Whisk (B) till stiff , then fold in (A) , pour into a 9" round tin and bake for about 45 mins. or more or till cooked. Remove from oven and leave to cool completely on a cooling rack. Slice into 3 layers.

Butter Milk Buns- 奶油包

Butter Milk Buns are very popular in Malaysia and Brunei. When I tried to look for it in Perth, I could find any. I guessed this must be another Malaysian creation. This is my 2nd attempt with the fillings. The first filling recipes which I copied from a US website was totally useless and a failure. This time I used the recipe from a Brunei friend. It was a success. The Bun dough recipe was from Kuala Terengganu, a specialty over there. The Bun was very soft even after it cooled down. The butter milk was very nice as well. Two of the fillings in my buns burst during baking but that was because I did not cover up the dough well and it leaked out. Rest of the Buns were perfect. *makes 11pcs of medium size Buns Gelatinised dough 50g bread flour 35ml hot boiling water 1.
