Recently I bought a bunch of bananas from the supermarket (some new brand that I hadn’t tried before) and although they had sat on my counter top for days and had turned completely yellow on the outside, the flesh inside was still somewhat dry and firm. If I had a dehydrator, I could probably turn […]
I had unsweetened soy milk in the fridge to use up and since I was planning to cook porridge, thought I would just add the soy milk into it and see how it would turn out. I liked the fragrance of the soy milk in the porridge which also gave extra depth of richness and […]
I remembered having snow fungus soup at Grandma’s house just a few weeks before she passed away in February. My husband had tried it for the first time and I was surprised he actually had several helpings as he didn’t seem interested in Chinese dessert soups previously.

I realise I have been cooking a lot of Korean dishes at home recently. Probably because I’m back into watching Korean dramas and I always see the characters having home cooked meals of rice, soup, kimchi & the like for almost every meal.

Radish is an affordable root vegetable that has so many health benefits that most of us probably […]
A fiery kick from the chilli flakes combined with the citrusy flavour of the lemon and the sharpness of the garlic makes this dish really refreshing and appetizing. The husband devoured his entire plate in no time and even asked for a second helping. 🙂 I did not specify an amount of chilli flakes to […]
It’s extremely gratifying to bake on a Friday because it’s the day of the week when I’ll always try to clear out the fridge. I can enjoy a sweet treat while saving money ‘cos I need not spend extra to buy tea time snacks and I can reduce food waste too, lol. 😉 Anyway, this […]
