Homemade Bagels
•
I love bagels. Especially the ones freshly toasted and slathered with a ton of cream cheese. Top it with some yummy smoked salmon and you’ll have a complete breakfast. I tried making my own bagels before which turned out pretty yummy, however it wasn’t very long before they became a bit stale. So I…

Easy Dinner Rolls
•
Over the long weekend I wanted to take my breadmaker for another spin, when Kak’mbang suggested this recipe she found on Youtube. These dinner rolls looked fairly easy to make, and uses basic ingredients most people readily have in their larder.

Smoked Chicken and Cheese Chowder
•
It’s strangely hard for me to find turkey ham of late. Chicken toast is everywhere, but turkey… not so much. I went to the usual places like B.I.G. and Cold Storage near my house and they are always out of stock. So I reached out to Merv, whom I can always count on for…

Malted Sultana and Apricot Bread
•
More breadmaking fun! This recipe came in the recipe books of both the BM250 and BM450, and I’ve been wanting to make it for a long time. The problem was finding one ingredient – malt extract.

Red Bean Cookies – Grandma’s Legendary Recipe
•
My (mysterious) Grandma made red bean cookies that were practically legendary in my family. Unfortunately I was not blessed with the opportunity to savour the real deal, but Abang Fauzi definitely remembers watching her make the cookies, and among my siblings I think he loved them the most.

•
If you are attempting the gauntlet that is my late maternal grandmother’s legendary kuih kacang, you can either fill it with store-bought red bean filling to significantly cut the prep time, or you can make it from scratch following her recipe which has been passed down through the ages.

Cranberry, Almond and Walnut Bread
•
I had leftover natural yoghurt in the fridge I’d like to clear out before it goes bad. Looking through the recipe book that came with my Kenwood BM450 machine I saw this recipe, and I had all the ingredients (or their substitutes) on hand, so here we are.

Italian Herb and Parmesan Bread
•
After years of using my trusty Kenwood BM250 breadmaker, I did the stupidest thing. I let the breadpan sit in a sink filled with just a couple of inches of water. It wasn’t that much water, but it was enough for rust to build around the paddle rotator, and it became stuck. No amount…

Weekend Cooking: New York-Style Bagels
•
It’s so hard to find good bagels in KL. I can name a couple of bakeries selling it, but can’t say they are particularly spectacular. One day I had a major craving for bagels, so I looked up a few recipes and picked up the one by Sophisticated Gourmet, which didn’t seem too complicated…

Weekend Cooking: Sausage Meatballs with Red Gravy
•
This was a recipe I made a long, long time ago for Hari Raya celebrations, and at the point of time I haven’t started blogging my culinary exploits just yet. The recipe is from Emeril’s Potluck, and as you probably can imagine, this makes a potluck-sized batch.
