There can never be an end to a woman’s skincare regimen or perhaps I should say it is a lifelong process. When I was in my teens and 20s, my primary skin concern was about eliminating (or preventing) pimples and acne on my face. When I hit my 30s, I was quite bothered by the […]
I really love cooking one-pot stews because not only they are easy to make and can be prepared in advance (usually taste better overnight!), they are also able to feed many without too much hassle. Also, I think a one-pot stew can be a very budget-friendly meal because you can use whatever meats or vegetables […]
Woohoo! I finally made my own thunder tea rice! Lol. I’m a big fan of this signature Hakka rice dish because it has so many different types of vegetables in it. High fibre – yeah – but it’s that mix of textures, variety and wholesomeness that keep me coming back for it. For those who are […]
I never would have thought of stir frying spaghetti in an Asian style like how we’d do Chinese fried noodles till my mother-in-law whipped up a quick and tasty lunch of stir fried fusilli with char siu when I first came by her house in England years ago. It works in a similar way like […]
This was the super yummy Alfredo Fettuccine I had during my cruise as mentioned in my Part 1 post: Bacon-Wrapped Stuffed Chicken Recipe (Part 1 of 2). It looked so humble and simple but the taste was just beyond my expectations. It had a good balance of sharpness from the parmesan cheese, deep aroma from the […]
Besides making Scotch eggs as an entree, the husband made Alfredo Fettuccine and Bacon-Wrapped Chicken as the main which I thought were really special and meaningful because I was hooked onto this really delicious Alfredo Fettuccine that I had to have it every evening for dinner during my cruise and the Bacon-Wrapped Stuffed Chicken was […]
I had my first Scotch egg when I first went to England many years ago. Bought a ready-to-eat one from Sainsbury’s which wasn’t out of this world but it was still decent since it was considered a novelty snack to me. In my recent cruise on Sapphire Princess, I had an outstanding Scotch egg during […]
The first time I made Spaghetti Bolognese which was years ago, I followed the husband’s recipe after he made it once for me to try which was not bad. It was a really basic recipe with straightforward ingredients like minced beef, fresh tomatoes, yellow onions, button mushrooms and tomato paste. And because he liked his […]
This dish needs no further introduction 😉 It’s one of our local favourites and a must-order dish at any tze char stall which I also think is tasty and moreish enough to join the ranks of chicken rice and chilli crab as our national dish. Who doesn’t love salted egg, really? And with the combination […]
