I’m sure almost every family has their own chap chye recipe because it’s one dish that is never fixed in terms of ingredients used. If I recalled correctly, Gran’s Nonya Chap Chye included cabbage but did not have firm bean curd. And Mum’s version tasted very earthy from the huge amount of mushrooms used. Anyway, I had never been a […]
I bought a block of Pecorino Romano cheese from Foodie Market Place @ Tiong Bahru and had been grating it over my pastas and casseroles. Pecorino Romano is a hard Italian cheese made from sheep’s milk and tastes more salty and sharper than Parmesan but I do like it for its more intense aroma that […]
I spotted this Chinese snack kiosk when I was at Woodlands MRT Station and got really excited as it sells my favourite scallion pancake 葱油饼 that I always find it hard to resist. Made of such humble ingredients yet so delish. Since I had eaten some of the best scallion pancakes and meat buns at Shandong […]
This is one recipe that I just came up with at lunch with whatever I had in the fridge and pantry that I could make use of. I love my vegetables so I chose to have more of that than meat in this stew. Of course, if you prefer more meat instead, you can just adjust […]
I had long heard about the vintage high tea at House at Dempsey but hadn’t had the chance to visit earlier as the high tea is only available on Thursdays and Fridays. Just when I was planning a day out for the husband’s Big 3-0 birthday two weeks ago, I realised his big day was […]
I just love how black pepper sauce can be as versatile as mushroom sauce and that’s why both sauces are so frequently used in Western, Chinese and even Japanese cuisine. Normally, I’d make this black pepper sauce to go with grilled chicken but I felt like having salmon today so I just gave it a […]
This is a no-carb muffin recipe which is very easy to make without the hassle of preparing several components of the traditional fry-up. Only 3 ingredients are required but of course if you like, you can always include additional stuffs like button mushrooms, diced bell peppers, sweet corn kernels, bacon bits, etc to bulk them up. Egg & Ham […]
I’ve been a regular of Thai Express since a decade ago. And to date, I still think it serves up the best seafood phat thai in Singapore which is always my sure-to-order item every time I’m here. And the best part is, no matter which Thai Express branch I go to, standard of their food […]
When I asked the husband before his birthday if he’d like me to bake a cake for him, he requested for a healthy and low calorie cake that we both could eat without worries so our diet plans wouldn’t go haywire. But to be honest, I find that really hard to do so because it takes […]
