I love cheese! If you adore cheese as much as I do, I’m sure you’d like this easy cheddar pasta dish which is quick to make and just tastes so wonderfully rich and cheesy. I was just being greedy because 250g of grated cheddar is really A LOT for a 2 persons’ serving but I […]

I made wonton noodles over the weekend and had a few bundles of egg noodles left in the fridge so I paired the noodles with some roasted chicken drumsticks for a complete new dish. The marinate sauce for the noodles is the same as what I’d do for the dry wonton noodles, simply by using […]

I love making chicken chops and pork chops for dinner because they are inexpensive and really easy to make. The only thing that we need to give a little more thought is to vary the gravy or sauce that goes on top the meat so we don’t eat the same every time which can get pretty boring. […]

There used to be a coffeeshop stall at one end of Liang Seah Street that served up one of the best curry chicken noodles I had ever tried in Singapore. Unfortunately, I haven’t quite found another one that could be on par with it. I have tried making the same at home using instant curry […]

I have an indescribable affinity with fried rice, probably all kinds of fried rice. It’s one of the most inexpensive comfort food for me because frying rice always reminds me of my beloved Granny. And because of that, I always get this familiar feeling of kinship and love when I eat fried rice and no […]

Almost similar to the creamy alfredo sauce, this Garlic Herb Cheese Penne Recipe is one of our favourite pastas. Easy to make and perfect for cheese lovers like us. If you love creamy white sauces for pastas, then this is one recipe you should not miss out on. Garlic-Herb Cheese Penne Recipe Ingredients (serves 2) 250g penne, […]

I love cooking different types of porridge by experimenting with various ingredients. Broccoli and cauliflower are great vegetable choices as they don’t turn mushy easily. Just add some chicken breast or minced chicken, this would be a low-fat, low cholesterol, nutritious porridge meal fit for the whole family. Healthy Brown Rice Porridge with Broccoli & […]

I have blogged about my favourite claypot rice before which is one of the many local foods in Singapore that I adore. For this home-made version, I did not use a traditional claypot. As such, the best bits of burnt rice will not be present in this version but the flavour infiltrating every grain of rice […]

This simple Chicken Carrot Porridge recipe inspiration came from my mum when she only had carrots and chicken meat left in her fridge. She turned that into a lovely, hot porridge for lunch which she had without any seasoning as she normally prefers plain food. To make it slightly more palatable than just that, I used […]

This Fried Bee Hoon with Stewed Pork Recipe is one of my favourite one-dish recipes. Normally if I have to cook lunch on weekends, this would be one easy dish to prepare. The stewed pork has a rich and flavourful gravy that makes the bee hoon slightly moist and savoury tasty. And this dish reminds me […]

The husband wanted couscous for lunch so I prepared this the night before so he could bring to work the next day. It’s really easy to make plus it’s something that you can eat while it’s chilled without the need to reheat it. For those who are new to couscous, it is actually a coarsely ground […]

Why would chicken rice taste good without the chicken fats? That’s why I call my version a generic Poached Chicken Rice Recipe instead of Hainanese Chicken Rice Recipe because I have deviated from the traditional way of making oily rice. But overall, the taste of my chicken is still pretty authentic. There is an excellent […]

John and I love having wraps for dinner when we decide to just stay in on the weekend. Sometimes, we’d just buy a ready roasted chicken from the supermarket, some lettuce & tomatoes and a pack of tortilla wraps and that’d make a wholesome dinner for the both of us. For a change this time, […]

Mondays are my husband’s eat-in days so he and his colleagues will have lunch meetings in the office instead of heading out to eat. For health reasons, he has requested me to make lunch for him since outside food tends to be oily and may contain MSG. As there isn’t a microwave in his office […]

If you often cook prawns/shrimps at home, do reserve the prawn heads & shells (they can be kept in the freezer for months so just keep accumulating) so you can make prawn stock in the future. Nothing ever goes to waste! Fried Hokkien Prawn Mee is a very popular hawker fare in Singapore and it’s […]
