Bayou Chicken Pasta
•
Over the weekend a group of 10 came over for pot roast, and I worried we wouldn’t have enough starch as a “filler” dish. So, at the very last minute I threw in another pasta dish to the menu. I decided on this simple but incredibly delicious pasta, modified from the recipe by Emeril Lagasse. I’ve…

Garlic Cheese Bread
•
I try to bake a fresh loaf of bread at least once a week, and usually I would alternate between a sweet loaf and a savory one. Last week I reattempted the Condensed Milk Bread with some improvements, so this week I wanted something savory. This Garlic Cheese bread came up in my Youtube…

Condensed Milk Bread
•
It’s been a while since I saw this video from Savor Easy, but I’ve only finally got around to trying it today. This bread uses sweetened condensed milk in the dough itself as well as in the glaze, and my oh my the bread is so soft and quite heavenly. If you have some…

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.

Make Your Own: Chicken and Duck Andouille Sausage
•
I’ve made quite a few recipes by Emeril Lagasse which called for andouille sausages. I have never seen halal andouille in any of the upmarket grocers or deli stores in KL, and even when an ad for a non-halal deli pops up in my feed (need to do better, Facebook -_-) I rarely see…

Benggali Bread
•
When I was a kid, on weekends when we went to visit my brother in boarding school, we’d stop by a market in Batu Enam to buy Benggali bread rolls filled with kaya. The bread was simple, soft but not milky, and the kaya was the cheapo diluted type unlike the fancy gourmet ones…

Homemade Mexican Chicken Chorizo Sausage
•
Been wanting to make my own sausages for ages. The recipes I like to try out, usually from Emeril Lagasse, often call for different kinds of sausages, (Spanish or Portuguese) chorizo, andouille, or Italian (both hot and sweet). Sweet Italian sausages are still relatively easier to find, but not so much for the rest.…

Make Your Own: Fish Stock
•
When I order fish and seafood from @faharseafood I usually ask for the grouper to be filleted, and the fillets will be delivered along with the head and bones. After a few rounds of orders, I accumulated quite a few sets of these, and I felt that it would’ve been such a waste to…

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

Breadmaker Kicked-up Dinner Rolls
•
I wanted some bread to go with the Honey-butter Baked Chicken I made, so I decided to make some of my own. These fluffy, buttery dinner rolls are not too sweet or flavorful on their own, great for soaking up pot roast gravy or soups. I just wish I had some soup or gumbo…
