Happy Boxing Day! After a weekend of festive feasting, it’s time to detox the system with a healthy yogurt parfait recipe like this which is made up of layers of rolled oats, fruits and yogurt with various toppings. You can basically use any ingredients you like. Healthy ones would of course include berries, dried fruits, […]
Got the inspiration from Pinterest when I saw beautiful pics of these roll ups and thought I would try making them as well. Have added this to my list of recipes that turn stale, day-old bread into delicious treats which is definitely a great way to minimise food waste. ๐ I had rolled out each […]
Happy Christmas Eve, everyone!ย ???? It’s also the start of a long weekend, woohoo! Going to head to the shops this morning to finish up some Christmas shopping and also to stock up on food and drinks for our weekend movie nights though I’ve already done two rounds of this, lol. This is the kind of […]
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 rรถsti. 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 […]
This Pork Collar with Crispy Garlic Sauce is an adaptation of my Sliced Pork with Garlic Sauce (่ๆณฅ็ฝ่) 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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
Two weeks ago, I had posted the pre-order information for Bake & Celebrate: Cookies and Treats that will be out in stores very soon. This recipe book is a collection of 42 recipes for delectable cookies and treats that are contributed by selected top food & lifestyle bloggers and instagrammers from Singapore and the region. […]
My late granny used to make fish floss (she called it ‘her hu’ in Teochew) a lot when I was little because my father loved fishing then and every weekend he would come home with a huge catch of fish like sea bass and snapper. I really missed those moments when the kitchen would be […]
Love ribs with meat that falls off the bone? Give my Honey BBQ Back Ribs Recipe a try. It’s a meat dish that I love to do during festive occasions or for dinner parties but it can be quite time-consuming plus there’s quite a bit of work involved. This Curry Pork Ribs Recipe is a […]
I used to only eat lettuce raw until when I experimented with stir frying it previously and I thought cooked lettuce was not bad too. See my Stir Fried Lettuce Recipe (with Shimeji Mushrooms). Every time when I just needed a few lettuce leaves for sandwiches or salads but I could only get a whole […]
Doesn’t this look like the yu sheng we normally have during Chinese New Year? Yep, I definitely got my inspiration from there. In fact, this salad can also qualify as the chicken version of yu sheng as it makes a really good alternative for those of you who don’t like raw fish. It is also […]
Bought a huge pineapple to make Pineapple Chicken earlier but wasn’t able to use all up so I made a pineapple salsa with the leftovers as a side dish to go with my baked salmon lunch. Flavours worked perfectly in this dish. While the honey baked salmon tasted more on the sweet side, the tangy […]
As I’m typing out this recipe post, I can’t help but have that #PPAP tune ringing in my head. I’m sure most of you have watched the video clip. Such a nonsensical song but so catchy and memorable, lol. Anyway, this is a pretty healthy, low-fat dish because I’ve used skinless chicken breast meat and […]
Kung Pao dishes need no further introduction. They are so common and easily available at Chinese takeaways and restaurants. I have shared two Kung Pao recipes previously: Kung Pao Chicken Kung Pao Tofu (vegetarian) And this time, I’ve made another vegetarian version with lotus root and other vegetables. The crunch of the vegetables and cashew […]
