While I don’t really consume a lot of soft drinks, I do like to use them in my cooking. This Coca-Cola Pork Ribs Recipe is super easy to make. Basically, Coca-Cola is the sole formula for the sauce so except for a simple marination of the pork ribs, there is absolutely no need for further […]
The family has the tendency to stock up on canned abalones every Chinese New Year especially when there’s a deal so whenever we need to celebrate any occasion at home, a can of abalone is always readily available for cooking.
