Laziest Mac & Cheese

This is for us lazy cooks and students! I’m not a student by the way. Hahaha. But this dish is perfect for those days after work where you forgot to take out the meat or fish to thaw.

I only used almond milk because I can’t drink too much milk and with the amount of cheese inside, I went with a nut milk. You can check out the video below or simply refer to the written recipe below. Ingredients: 1 serving Pasta (can...

Souffle Omelette

Now that we’re all staying at home, it is the perfect time to try out new recipes or techniques. So I’ve been seeing this on the internet for some time and I really wanted to try it while giving myself the excuse that I’ll be giving my arm a workout (LOL). Great thing about this dish is that you don’t really need a lot of ingredients and it’s really quite easy…provided that you don’t over whisk your eggs or burn the omelette at the stove. You can check out my video below or read the recipe as well. Ingredients: 3...

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 your final dish! This is healthier because I didn’t use lard, used oil sparingly and I used probiotic honey and stevia instead of white sugar. The below recipe serves 2-3 pax. Ingredients: ¼ yam (approx 300g), diced 1 tbsp shallot oil (I used olive oil...
