Shrimp Rolls
•
I made a batch of New England Hot Dog Buns the other day and only used half, and I wanted to clear them out while they are still fresh. New England hot dog buns are the bread of choice for lobster rolls, because of their soft texture and ever so slightly sweet taste. They…

Chinese Stir-Fried Tomatoes and Eggs
•
I usually leave our daily meals to Kak’mbang who is an amazing cook (but of course she denies it for some reason), where we usually have a few meat, veg and/or egg dishes with plain white rice. On rare occasions I contribute a dish to the table, and today I made a simple egg…

Molo (Filipino Dumpling) Soup
•
I generally cannot refuse dumplings of any variety, be it steamed, fried, boiled, served as dim sum or in soup, just name it. Dumplings are simply the best comfort food for me, especially served in steaming bowls of hot soup on cold rainy days. Found out about molo, a Filipino dumpling soup dish, from…

Nasi Daging
•
It’s Ramadan, and the Movement Control Order (MCO) is in effect resulting in the surge of home cooks, so there are tons of yummy looking recipes flying around on the Internet. The Bestie shared this Nasi Daging (beef rice) recipe from daridapur.com, and it looked simply amazing. I’ve had nasi daging several times in…

Prawn Panzerotti
•
Got some really good saltwater shrimp from Everfresh the other day, and I was looking for more ideas for simple meals for sahur during this Ramadan. I’ve made steamed buns and burger buns using my Kenwood BM450 breadmaker, so now I’m revisiting very old pizza recipes using the new equipment I have on hand.

Wonton Noodle Soup
•
I love dumplings, and I love noodles in soup. To me at least, they are the ultimate comfort food. When both are combined into a single, yummy dish, that just takes it to the next level. Imagine a gloomy, rainy night, tucking into a large steaming bowl of soupy noodles topped with wontons bursting…

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.

Ramadan Cooking: Eman’s Chicken Mandy
•
It’s the last weekend of Ramadan. Gosh, time really flies. I wanted to make Chef Wan’s briyani gam with chicken kuzi, but I was missing a few ingredients and I’ll only be going to the market tomorrow. Since I’ll also be eating out tomorrow, if I wanted to make something, tonight was my only window of…

Karnataka-style Chicken Briyani
•
Last Ramadan I was binging on Middle Eastern recipes, but this year I stumbled upon this YouTube channel called Get Curried and was intrigued by their selection of Indian recipes. At first I wanted to try their butter chicken, but it’s the weekend and I should do something fancier and Mom also suggested I…

Ramadan Cooking: Shrimp Scampi Pasta
•
I found some really nice (albeit expensive) shrimp at B.I.G. recently, and at the same time was having such a craving for pasta. I’ve mentioned previously that I really love the shrimp scampi at Tony Roma’s, although over the years they seemed to have modified the recipe or something and even that has lost…
