Ugly Meatball Spaghetti
This recipe is pretty similar to the hamburger one, except that I changed the olive oil to sesame oil and I didn’t add in any onions. You can choose either recipe to follow for the meatballs. What I like about both the meatball and beef patty recipes, is that you can prep these in advance...

Healthier Orh Nee (芋泥) aka Sweet Yam Paste
Ok, I admit…this photo of my yam paste looks terrible and doesn’t do justice to this traditional Teochew dessert…but I don’t care because it tastes better than it looks. LOL. I didn’t have any ginkgo nuts so this recipe doesn’t have it but I honestly LOVE ginkgo nuts so please try to add them into...

So I made this as my New Year’s Eve dinner and I didn’t realise that I haven’t posted the recipe for it! I posted on Instagram and some people were surprised that I made burgers from scratch…but yes, I did. What was my inspiration? Gifts from my bro Well, first off, I need to thank...
