I haven’t been cooking a lot these 2 months as I’ve been away most of the time (I’m in Malaysia now! Haha) but luckily I have a huge backlog of recipes (‘cos I cooked too much and couldn’t blog about everything in time, oops) to share. Will be rolling out a series of travel & […]
This is a fusion dish inspired by the Korean seafood pancake and the Swiss rösti. Instead of using just regular potatoes, I added in sweet potatoes as well to give the pancakes some natural sweetness. If you like, you can also use scallops and lump crab meat besides squids and prawns. I made a lighter […]
I was at Khoo Teck Puat Hospital to pick up my Dad who was getting discharged. We headed to the food court for lunch and saw that the place had undergone a major facelift and is now a 2-storey space that sports a clean, bright and trendy outfit. The number of food stalls has probably […]
This Pork Collar with Crispy Garlic Sauce is an adaptation of my Sliced Pork with Garlic Sauce (蒜泥白肉) Recipe which is suitable for those who don’t like the spicy and pungent flavour of raw garlic. After the garlic has been fried in oil, its flavour becomes milder and sweeter. Also, it kinda resembles crushed potato […]
Never expected myself to be crazy (ok, not that bad, haha) about Taiwanese desserts in Singapore as I thought they were just overpriced, mediocre stuffs that were probably not worth the sugar and calories, haha. However, since I tried my very first bowl of ai-yu jelly from Nine Fresh, a Singapore local chain for Taiwanese […]
I shared my Spicy Fish Floss Recipe last week which was inspired by my Granny’s Nyonya-style fish floss. It’s a very versatile side dish that you can make in bulk in advance and then store the rest in containers (chilled) for later use. Try adding them to fried rice, noodles and sandwiches or even whip […]
The hype has obviously died down. It’s so easy to find Latte and the latest flavour, Green Milk Tea, in most 7-11 stores now and they are even selling at a promotional price of S$4.90 for 2 bottles (U.P. S$2.80/bottle). I jumped on the Chun Cui He bandwagon months ago because everyone else was making […]
I haven’t had a good Fried Assam Prawn dish for a long time until when I visited Makko Teck Neo at Telok Blangah Rise which served up homey Peranakan fare. Really reminded me of Granny’s cooking as she used to make similar assam (a.k.a. tamarind) prawns when I was little so I decided to recreate […]
I must say I’ve had an enjoyable time in the kitchen this year, re-inventing classic recipes, experimenting with different cuisines and trying out new cooking techniques. And with my new discovery of amazing flavours from all my eat-ventures and travels, I’m just so inspired to whip up more tasty dishes in the time to come. […]
