Pressure Cooker Beef Stew with Carrots and Potatoes
•
During my last trip to the wet market, I bought some beef with the intention of making pot roast for the Round Knights. Weeks passed, and for some reason or the other I just never got around to do it. This is becoming a bit of an annoying habit for me now… Anyway, of…

Potluck: Cheeseburger Sliders
•
I saw a video by Tastemade some time ago on how to make 4 types of sliders, and I knew I had to try making them. I was going to make the cheeseburger sliders for a potluck tonight, but the host came down with fever and had to cancel (get well soon, Elle!). I was really looking…

Braised Lamb Shoulder Chops Using Pressure Cooker
•
Kak’mbang has been yelling at me for leaving the lamb shoulder chops I bought some time ago to just sit in the freezer for ages. With my crazy work schedule, I honestly have no energy to make anything involving too much work. I found this braised recipe lamb shoulder chops recipe on allrecipes.com which got pretty…

Weekend Cooking: Pressure Cooker Lamb Stew
•
Tesco was selling lamb shoulder cubes for cheap during the Deepavali festive season, and I figured I’d bring out my pressure cooker and let it see some action. I based this recipe on one I found on food.com, and it was super easy to make and turned out really yummy. I love my pressure cooker!

Pressure-Cooked Chick Peas (Kacang Kuda Rebus)
•
Some of the yummiest snacks are the simplest, and one of my favorites is boiled chick peas. For an afternoon snack (and anything in between), boiled chick peas are perhaps a healthier alternative, and I could keep munching on these all day while sipping yummy cups of coffee. Before the advent of pressure cookers…

Weekend Cooking: Pressure Cooker Chicken & Chickpea Masala
•
I’m really liking the Philips electric pressure cooker I bought recently, and I’d really like for it to not be a white elephant, like what almost happened to my air fryer (glad it didn’t, though!). So I looked around for easy pressure cooker recipes that don’t involve unusual/expensive ingredients or require too much work. This recipe…

RayaFest 2016: Kerepek Bijan Nenek (Grandma’s Sesame Crackers)
•
Ramadan is almost over and Kak’mbang and I were busy with our preparations for Hari Raya tomorrow. When I was growing up, the usual routine in the days leading up to Hari Raya would be to bake cookies, but in this day and age, everybody just buys their Raya cookies, so we no longer bother.…

Weekend Cooking: Kak’mbang’s Chicken Rice
•
Others may have their own personal preferences, but Rudy and I both agree that Kak’mbang’s chicken rice is really, really good. This was another recipe that simply must be preserved for generations to come, but again I’ve always had trouble catching her in action (she’s such a ninja in the kitchen; dishes just magically appear and you…

Potluck: Tuna Tetrazzini
•
This dish was one of the earliest recipes I’ve tried making, when I first starting cooking for fun. I basically stuck to one chef on Food Network – Emeril Lagasse – and generally his dishes turn out great. I started bringing his dishes to office potlucks, and they never disappoint. This tuna tetrazzini is super comforting…

Weekend Cooking: Roasted Turkey Legs
•
So a few frozen turkey legs mysteriously ended up in my shopping cart at Tesco, so I decided to make something a little different for dinner tonight. The drumsticks were a rather big, so they took a bit longer to cook than I had originally planned. All in all they turned out quite tasty;…
