My FIL makes pineapple tarts every Chinese New Year and he does it all using a tiny oven, baking one small tray at a time. Talk about patience! The boy and I were over at his parents’ the other night and he was single-handedly making the tarts so I decided to be a dutiful DIL and help out with cutting of the pastry. It looks seemingly easy but it took me a while to get the hang of it.
Do pardon my less-than-stellar mop of hair. I was really proud of myself having filled up the entire tray with pineapple tart pastry. And as you can see from the picture on the bottom left, Miss Moon was more than eager to help eat up any bits of uncooked pastry that fell to the ground. Pfffft.

Your FIL does the baking for CNY? Respect! So cool. First time I’ve heard of a guy baking pineapple tarts. Well done!
