Weekend Cooking: Garlic & Olive Oil Pizza
•
I usually make my own pizza dough, but I happened to have quite a lot of store-bought pizza crust in the fridge, so I decided to throw together something simple using stuff I had on hand. Despite minimal ingredients, this pizza made a pretty decent snack, and Rudy surprisingly loved them. A great alternative to…

Make Your Own: Basic Pan Pizza Base
•
When making my Pull-apart Stuffing Rolls, I originally just wanted to use ready-made pizza dough, and bought some from the store. I thought nothing of it, but when I finally took the dough out from the fridge, to my horror the stuff I bought turned out to be pre-baked pizza crust, and was therefore…

Weekend Cooking: Extra-Buttery Dinner Rolls
•
Lately I’ve been trying to make my own roti paung, and I searched through the net for different ideas to experiment with. I still haven’t found the right recipe so far, but during one of my experiments I accidentally created these buttery dinner rolls which, I daresay, tasted better than the Parker House Rolls I…

GobbleFest 2016: Pull-apart Stuffing Rolls
•
When having roast turkey, one usually would have it with stuffing. Even though I butterfly my turkey and therefore there’s nothing I can stuff my stuffing into, I usually would still make stuffing on the side. So far I haven’t found any stuffing recipe that Rudy actually liked, and dinner wouldn’t be complete without dinner…

GobbleFest 2016: Mashed Sweet Potatoes
•
December 24th, 7 p.m. Malaysian time. I can’t believe a year went by so fast. Once again it’s GobbleFest, and Rudy and I decided to have the Round Knights over for dinner. We bought our turkey early this year, and managed to get a 6-kilogram turkey for RM29.99/kg from Cold Storage. Yay! Then we…

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…
