Festive Roast Duck with Duck Fat Roast Potatoes
•
This amazing Western-style festive roast duck by Jamie Oliver has been my go-to recipe whenever I feel like having duck at home. I recently made this for our usual end of year get-together in place of turkey, due to a complete shortage of turkey in the market this year.

Chicken Miso Ramen
•
Rudy loved Japanese food. He missed sushi the most, as consuming raw/ undercooked foods was not advised when undergoing his treatments. As much as we could we still tried to have our Japanese food fix, and ramen was one of the things we wanted to have more of.

Chicken Chashu Chahan (Fried Rice)
•
I still had some chicken chashu leftover but not much ramen left to use it as a topping, so I resorted to the most common thing Asians would do with leftovers: make fried rice!

Been ages since we’ve been to IKEA. Window shopping or filling our carts with cool stuff we don’t need is fun, sure, but usually the highlight of our IKEA trips is usually lunch at their cafeteria.

Pierogi (Polish dumplings)
•
My obsession with dumplings continues, and this time I stumbled upon a recipe of a less expected origin: Poland. I’m following @fatdadcooks on Instagram, and one day I saw him post a photo of pan-fried pierogies he got from a friend. Curious, I started looking up recipes for pierogies. Apparently there are so many…

Garlic Lemon Butter Salmon with Buttered Asparagus

Bought a few pieces of salmon fillet from Myfishman.com. Fish and seafood I get from them are usually very fresh and yummy, and I had high expectations from the salmon I got. I wanted to make something that is simple yet fully brings out the fish as the star attraction.

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.
