Tepung Kapur
•
Here in KL, I personally find it difficult to find decent Terengganu food close enough to my house. Food from Kelantan, our neighboring state, is aplenty, but not those from my own home state. Until one day, my mom told me about Mok Teh Nasi Dagang, a shop my brother frequently orders from, .…

Pie Susu Bali
•
I was browsing through my photo gallery looking at my Bali holiday photos, when I came across a photo of the pie susu (milk pies) we got as ole-ole (souvenirs) from there. Suddenly I had a craving for pie susu, so as always, nak makan, buat sendiri. I looked at a few recipes on…

Lepat Pisang
•
Achievement unlocked: lepat pisang! I generally love bananas and every form of dessert or snack we can make with bananas, and lepat pisang is one of my favorites. The thing is, this Malay kuih isn’t as common as some others, and quite often the ones I get are quite disappointing.

Pais Jagung Sabah
•
Rudy bought another batch of delicious jagung susu, and we still had a few left when Kak’mbang suggested that we make pais jagung, a sweet steamed corn-based kuih wrapped in cornhusks. What an idea!

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.

Grandma’s Red Bean Filling (Inti Kacang Nenek)
•
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.

Air-Fried Caramel Banana & Coconut Spring Roll
•
Kak’mbang and I were just chilling out one day talking about food (because why not), and she mentioned this yummy looking recipe she found on a random can of F&N sweetened condensed creamer. Only the ingredients list was on the can, but spring rolls stuffed with bananas and grated coconut and drizzled with sweetened…

Weekend Cooking: Apple Cider Doughnuts
•
Post turkey dinner I had a lot of apple cider left over, and was wondering what to do with it. I can’t remember how I stumbled upon the idea of making doughnuts with apple cider, but now that I have, why didn’t I think of this sooner?? There are quite a few recipes out…

Weekend Cooking: Khaliat Nahal (Beehive)
•
To me, cooking is a way to destress after a long week slogging at the office. Making bread, however, is what I find most enjoyable. When a bread recipe appeared in Saudi Food Eman’s Facebook feed, I knew I had to try it ASAP. I mean, bread stuffed with cream cheese and drizzled with syrup?…

Ramadan Cooking: Air-Fried Banana Spring Rolls With Nutella Drizzle
•
I bought a bunch of pisang mas last weekend, and they were quite green then so I thought they would last a while. By mid week they’ve started to become overripe, so Kak’mbang asked me to try out this recipe by Chef Kamarul from his book, Resepi 30 Minit Chef Kamarul. Overall recipes from his book look…
