This is the Coconut Butter Chicken with Savoy Coconut Rice and it uses both coconut oil and coconut water in the recipe! We had a short cooking demonstration by the chef at The Legends, Hotel Fort Canning, on how this dish...

Pork Chops With Caramelised Onions and Fig
This is my second attempt at a pork chop. I seldom eat or cook pork chop because it’s really difficult to cook it such that it’s pink in the middle but yet cooked. I find it much easier to stew or cook sliced pork because when pork is cooked, there’s a high chance of it...

Eat Clean With Chia Seed Pudding & Fresh Fig

Pork Chop With Spinach And Mozzarella
Inspired by the delicious pork chops that I ate at my aunt’s place, I decided to buy pork chops when I came back to Singapore. So here’s the first ‘chop’ that I cooked! It’s pan fried/grilled and the marinate that I used is very simple: salt, pepper, paprika powder and five spice. Once that’s cooked...
