I decided to slave away in the kitchen to celebrate my parents’ birthday and upon request of my mother, I made my signature Century Egg Tofu as an appetiser. I also added a bit of shirataki noodles tossed with fish roe but it wasn’t quite mentaiko, so the taste was a little disappointing. For mains,...

Are You Gluten-sensitive?
I’ve been talking to a lot of people about how I found out that I’m slightly gluten sensitive and why a lot of people probably are but simply do not know about it. After every such conversation, most of them would ask me to blog about it and so here I am! I must stress...

Korean Style Spicy Grilled Pork
Pardon the ugly photo. I took this photo only after my mum ate it and I had no chance to plate it properly. Anyway, this recipe is super simple and you can use it on chicken or beef as well. In this case, I used leftover pork collar shabu shabu slices but it’s traditionally made...

Loading Up On Antioxidants
As you know, I was quite ill 2 weeks ago with sore throat and what not. It was only later that I realised that I was having a healing crisis from my parasite cleansing but it was still important to tackle the symptoms of my illness. I got my box of Jeunesse Reserve gel packs a month ago and...

Indian Coconut Butter Chicken with Savoy Coconut Rice
Was treated to this dish during Vita Coco’s Singapore launch of their coconut oil. This is the Coconut Butter Chicken with Savoy Coconut Rice and it uses both coconut oil and coconut water in the recipe!

Fried Tofu Topped with Minced Pork and Preserved Vegetables In Special Sauce
Sorry that this photo wasn’t that appetising but trust me when I say that the taste of the food was quite good. This was an experiment because I needed another dish to complete the meal for the 4 of us but we already had quite substantial dishes so this one was just something ‘light’. Into...

Slow Roasted Pork Belly
I was really inspired by this video of Gordon Ramsay’s Slow Roasted Pork Belly that I even asked my mum to buy pork belly when she went to the market last weekend. A few differences from what I cooked and what Ramsay’s recipe required:– instead of fennel, I used pearl onion and ginger– instead of...

Smoked Salmon Wrap
With yoga at 1.30pm and waking up at 10am, I needed a substantial brekkie without making me feel like I’m gonna puke. So, I decided to make a simple and quick Smoked Salmon Wrap! For the base, I used the leftover guacamole and then layered some rocket leaves before adding my salmon, which was smoked...
