pani popo

February 27th, 2010

You might not accept that you could lose weight while on a diet which includes pani popo but it is achievable. It is pivotal to not eat pani popo or other high calorie bread every day but in moderation.

For instance, I allow myself high calorie food once per week. I eat a reduced calorie diet for 6 days of the week, say 1500 to 1600 calories per day, and then one day, I eat anything – within reason of course.

I have been sticking to this diet for the last few weeks and it has helped me to lose 5 kilos. I have not changed my exercise plan or taken any pills or diet food. I have simply been aware of what I eat most days of the week and then eat whatever I want one day per week.

I also believe it helps to have some support when dieting and for that I signed up with the Biggest Loser club. They have many tools to help you monitor your progress and attain your goals.

Pani Popo (Samoa)

5 3/4 to 6 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 package yeast
2 1/4 cups milk
2 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 tablespoon shortening, margarine, or butter
1 teaspoon salt

Mix 2 1/2 cups of the flour and yeast.

In a saucepan heat and stir milk, sugar, shortening, margarine, or butter; and salt until warm and shortening almost melts. Add to flour mixture. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds, scraping bowl constantly. Using a spoon, stir in as much remaining flour as you can to make a moderately stiff dough that is smooth and easy to pull, about 6 to 8 minutes. Put some shortening on your hands. This will add moisture to dough and make it easier to handle. Shape dough into a ball and put in a greased bowl. Turn it on both sides to grease the whole ball of dough. Put a pan with some very hot water in it on the bottom of the oven. Cover dough and let rise in the oven on the top rack. (The steam from the hot water will help it to rise.) This should take about 45 minutes.

Punch dough down. Roll 18 balls and cover for 10 minutes while you make the following milk mixture.

Milk Mixture
2 cans coconut milk
1 cup granulated sugar

Pour half of the milk mixture into each of two (13 x 9-inch) pans. Put in 9 bread rolls on top (or you can make the rolls smaller to make more rolls). Bake at 375 degrees F for 20 minutes or until bread tests done.
