    Cheese Buns

    I’ve had that block of Kraft Cheddar in the fridge for ages now. I think I bought it to use for a different recipe, but never got around to do it. Fast forward to today and I really want to clear out ingredients from the fridge ASAP, so here I picked a super quick…

  • Breadmaker Wu Pao Chun Champion Toast Bread

    Breadmaker Wu Pao Chun Champion Toast Bread

    I’m on quite a few Facebook groups related to breadmaking and breadmaker usage, and quite often I see folks posting their Wu Pao Chun bread. I was wondering what this was all about, and many times those posts didn’t come with the recipe. One day Rudy shared with me the link to the recipe…

    Sweet & Sour Chicken Luncheon Meat with Potatoes

    Recently Rudy ordered a few items from Lolili’s Delights, which sells halal Chinese delicacies like bakkwa, chang, stuff that was completely inaccessible to us in the past. Among the few things we bought was the luncheon meat, and I wasn’t sure how best to use it. Searched online and found this really simple, yummy…

  • Horlicks Bread

    Horlicks Bread

    I generally like Horlicks, but I noticed that it is slowly disappearing from day to day life.

    Growing up in Terengganu, one of my favorite afternoon tea snacks was kayu keramat. Literally translated as ‘sacred stick’ (don’t ask), it is basically a lightly sweet fried dough. A local doughnut, so to speak.

    Steamed Banana Buns

    Saw this recipe on Youtube a few weeks back. Everything was in Chinese, but the ingredients and the concept shown was enough for me to imagine how tasty these buns might be.

  • Breadmaker New England Hot Dog Buns

    Breadmaker New England Hot Dog Buns

    We’re still mostly under lockdown due to the Conditional Movement Control Order (CMCO), and I had a lot of time on my hands so it was high time to clear out the freezer again. Found gourmet lamb sausages bought from B.I.G. some time ago, so why not have some hot dogs for dinner tonight?…
