I’ve always enjoyed my bowl of Hakka Mee. Though I don’t eat much pork on a daily basis, I’m quite happy to break that rule for this delicious minced pork noodles garnished with lots of spring onions. I can’t remember exactly when I started eating and loving this so much, but its probably from my […]
I’m a huge fan of Thai food and this Thai Chicken and Noodle Salad is not only easy to do but is perfect as a light meal after all the feasting during Christmas. The secret is really in the sauce which is made of readily available kitchen sauces, which most of us would already have […]
It’s just three weeks to Christmas! The gorgeous red and green colours on this Pomegranate Chicken dish make me feel all Christmas-y. I really love how pretty pomegranate seeds are – they remind me of rubies sparkling in the sun. I would probably make this again for Christmas dinner as this gorgeous chicken dish serves well as a […]
My whole family loves noodles. After seeing the bowl of delicious Mee Kedah on Phong Hong’s blog, I made this dish for lunch over the Deepavali holiday recently. Mee Kedah is a noodle dish from the Northern Malaysian state of Kedah. It reminds me somewhat of the prawn noodles we eat in Singapore but is […]
I’ve enjoyed taking part in the Malaysian Food Fest as it has given me the opportunity to discover and learn to cook many authentic Malaysian dishes that I have never imagined myself doing. Here is another dish which I tried out recently from the northern states of Kedah/Perlis – Gulai Ayam Masakan Utara (Northern Chicken Curry […]
Ikan Cencaru Sumbat is one of those dishes I love and hate. This fish has many fine bones and it’s always a challenge to eat this without swallowing a bone or two. As much as I dislike picking out bones, the rempah (spice paste) for stuffing the fish is so delicious and goes very well […]
Ayam Percik is the ‘true’ Malaysian-styled barbequed chicken and a Terengganu favourite. When I saw the photos of this dish online, it made my mouth water. Although the recipes are in Malay, it did not deter me from wanting to cook this. I actually made sense of the ingredients and method using Google Translate. The […]
Pan fried mackerel is a favourite at home in my growing up years. My grandmother who cooked dinner daily had this on the dining table very often. I enjoy the crispy fish so much that when I was ten years old, I gobbled down the fish so quickly that I swallowed a 2 cm long […]
I am a big fan of spicy food (especially Thai) but have never cooked any that does not involve pre-mixed curry paste. Making my own curry paste has always been on my to-do list, but I am put off by the long list of ingredients required. This Thai Red Curry Prawns recipe is a great […]
I have a bottle of balsamic vinegar that has been sitting around my pantry for a while. When I saw this recipe on this Balsamic Chicken recipe on MasterChef, my first thought was that it would help me finish up my balsamic vinegar! This recipe was delicious and easy to make. The chicken and vegetables […]
