I woke up late today and today's suppose to be sewing day but I skipped and watch tons of movies instead. I snacked while watching which was obviously not a wise thing to do but hey, my second last day of the hols...Yet I know when Hobbit gets home he would probably be starving from work and tutoring and another tutoring after dinner. Yup...that's my husband. Long day everyday. So I decided to

I know I haven't been good with updating this blog. Many times I said "I will" but the will power wasn't strong enough to move mountains. I am kinda lazy and free today so my time has been on the laptop almost half of the day. While browsing my picture folder, I noticed lots and lots of food pictures. So I guess it's time to get my hands/fingers on this page.pictures courtesy of KhunChurn's fb

Gwen and Glenn's relatives were here visiting the whole week and so they called for a potluck. Due to home church, we only prepared simple dishes --Sweet vegetables (sayur manis) and Sweet & Sour mackarel (yam phla ka pong).

Lunch for the home alone. Had lots of lentils still in the container. Soaked a handful and stir-fried with onions and curry powder. Tasted good when spread over hot steamed rice! :)

It was the last day of school and we felt like doing something together and so Nok and I went to Mah Boon Krong to shop and check out some stuff. I was actually feeling under the weather but I went anyway. All I bought was 2 working shirts for Hobbit and nothing for myself. I know...such a goody-goody wife! NO. We were hungry and randomly went into Hong Min (if I'm not mistaken) for some Chinese

Had a long day at school and came home feeling hungry yet too lazy to cook. Noticed there's one more fish fillet in the fridge. Can't help but cook another round of fish curry for two. Went so well with rice and a couple of shows on tv!

It is a Monday holiday today in replacement of the King's birthday. I slept half of the day and sat in front of my laptop throughout until I thought of baking. So I took out a recipe from Brownie Recipes and started baking.It only took about 20 minutes to finish the heating and mixing process before we poured the whole mixture into the roasting tin and let it sit for about 30 minutes.The brownies

We had a great feast last weekend thanks to our visitor friend Deanna. She used to visit us a lot before she started working. Now that work and study pretty much dominated her life in MC, Hobbit Husband and I really appreciate her occasional visit since we don't get to see each other so often anymore. Partially, thanks to the classes she had to attend here in Bangkok, which gave us more time to

Hobbit husband prepared this HK style fried rice adapted from one of our Periplus Mini Cookbooks. He is really inspired to become a good cook (and a good husband of course) and plan to take over the kitchen the next time we have guests over! In fact, he has been taking over most of the time, especially in doing the dishes. As I am typing this out, he is busy baking cookies!If you enjoy Chinese

I realized that I have been unproductive since coming back from Sabah these few days. What is worst is that I don't have the appetite to eat anything but whole wheat bread + nutella and more nutella. Only chocolates and chocolaty stuff could satisfy my taste buds so far. This evening I decided to put something together and try to be myself again. So I asked Hobbit to do the shopping so I could

Daron, Deanna, Lorena and Julie did an impromptu visit early one Sunday morning. Hobbit and I only managed to brush our teeth the minute they reached our apartment door. I opened the fridge and found that we had enough ingredients to put a burger sandwich together. Knowing that I have in my house someone who is good at preparing food, I asked Daron to be the chef of the day!So here are the

My favorite pickle has to be the malay achar and the Indian masala mango pickle! Today, I managed to make Indian Achar!Instead of using raw mangoes, I made like the malay use to make that is using carrots and cucumbers. Thanks to the ready made pickle masala!All you need to do is add lime, mustard oil and pinches of salt to go with the powder. Then let it sit for a day or two inside a jar. I used

The Chinese had this tradition of cooking congee or soft boiled rice when someone in the household is not feeling well/sick. This tradition was passed down from my great grandmother who then influenced my grandmother to my mother and now I caught "the flu"! Hutttchewwww! It was and is believed that congee increases the sickling's appetite and gives him/her immense energy leading to recovery.

Hobbit loves curry dishes. So today when I went to the kitchen and saw all the spices piling there, I thought okay, it's time for another Dhal take. So I dug deep into my fridge and see what combination would be wise to be cooked with the dhal or daal. Then I reached out for green chilies, onion, tomatoes, carrots, ginger and garlics. Too bad, I cannot give the exact propotion for this recipe

I don't know what is with me that I have this Indian food craving for almost 3 weeks already. Right now even Hobbit gets sick of helping me prepare all the Indian spices before I start cooking. I knew at the tip of his tongue that he wanted so much to blurt out "can we change the menu?" but can't help it since unconsciously I kept telling him about all the spices I recently learned about from the

We had our Malaysian potluck today at a friend's house. I was rather confused of what to bring and told one of our friend that I would bring whatever others won't bring. So Hobbit and I decided to just bring salad, something that would not give us too much hassle on Sabbath morning.Here's the ingredients I use:1kg potatoes 1 carrot 1 Japanese cucumber 1 red apple Japanese mayonnaise Pinches of

Every time I am invited to a Filipino gathering, be it a birthday party, a farewell party or just a simple get together, I never missed this famous Filipino style fruit dessert they call Buco. I know back home many of the housewives love to prepare this dessert too but using slightly different ingredients. I have made it several times especially when attending our group potlucks but never once

Daron was the one who suggested we go to Dalah Restaurant. Before going to the MSML, we actually planned to dine at Dalah but it was closed. However we insisted to go again and this time were we glad it was open and we were the only customers (you know ML!)!Located not too far away from Muak Lek town (about 3km), Dalah is just next to a big open space go-cart track.

In fact I don't even know the name of this ice cream parlor Dee & Darz took us too. It's located in Muak Lek's town. While browsing the menu we thought ah! Look...they have Earthquake just like Swensen...they even have this...and have that! That's why as for now, Mini Swensen ML it should be unless someone can help me with the name! :)As we stepped into this small ice cream corner cafe, we

Hobbit and I dined at Santa Fe for several times already but never took any pictures of what we ate. Maybe we knew since this Franchise is common in Thailand, the chances of us coming back is big. Well, today we craved for some steaks and decided to pay Santa Fe a visit again. So we drove to Seacon and settled at 1st floor Santa Fe. FYI, there are two Santa Fe's around Seacon Square. One is right

Thought of preparing something nice for Hobbit husband today. So I quickly rushed into the kitchen and prepared Chinese sausage fried rice. Hobbit arrived as soon as I was done with my cooking. From his reaction, he was very pleased because he can skip all the cutting and washing (which he does for me every time I cook)!Ingredients:2 bowls of cooked rice1 stick of Chinese chicken sausage1/2

Originated from Laos and settled first in the Isan region of northeastern Thailand, som tum is also known as Tam mak hoong in Thailand's neighboring country, Laos. It is a spicy salad made from shredded unripened papaya. Thus the English name - Papaya salad, as to how most of us called it. Usually som tum is served with sticky rice(khao niaw) and barbecued chicken(gai yang). It goes with rice

One evening we decided to have an outdoor dinner and so we drove to a place called Baan Tawan Katuang. This was our second time here. The first time was I guess 3 years ago and the food was rated okay. This Thai restaurant is popular for their beers. Well, we didn't come for the beer but to try out their food. So we started out with the famous khra pao kai (Thai basil chicken fried rice) and som

Our tastebuds went Indian again and this time our dining gang joined us in exploring Himali Cha Cha at Sukhumvit Soi 35. We Hobbits had been wanting to go to this place long time ago but never had the chance to. So this time we finally made it to this place.Himali Cha Cha actually has three branches and is one of the oldest names in the town. It is quite a well-known place consider that it has

I almost forgot about the broccoli we purchased last week and it was sitting in the fridge waiting to screaming for us to do something with it before it rots. I, in moments of recipe block, couldn't think of any recipe for it. So many times, again, google became my resort.Steamed Broccoli Recipe Ingredients: 1 tsp. oil1 tbsp. sesame seeds1 tbsp. soy sauce1 tbsp. lemon juice1 tbsp. sugarSteamed

We visited Vientiene Kitchen yesterday out of desperation for Thai food. Five years ago, Hobbit lived and worked at the same road (Sukhumvit 36) where this restaurant is situated but nothing ever gave us a reason to stop by since there were several other good Thai restaurants around. This time around, the ones that we frequent was close when we arrived and Mac, our friend was desperate for some "

Cooking is such a therapeutic activity. Today I experimented on Chicken cutlets with Kim Chi and it turned out delicious-miscious! Hehe!

Obviously my sweet tooth is on a loud speaker craving for sweet food. It happened that HHobbit bought a can of A&W root beer on his way to pick me up. As soon as I entered the car he offered his root beer. There goes the light bulb! Inspired, we rushed home and immediately got to work. Here is the ingredients I used. I didn't list down the exact amount of each ingredient because it is so much so

When we were about to leave from The Mall yesterday, we decided to have a late evening tea when we reached home. So we decided to try Novotel Hotel's cakes this time. Apparently the kiosk has 30% off since it was closing time. So our appetites were triggered a bit. We bought a chocolate cake, caramel tart and a mecademia flavored cake which all in all cost us less than 130B.As soon as we reached

Hobbit and I were craving for the well-known Hokkien Mee usually available from Chinese restaurants back home. So to quench our taste buds, I went to Jusco and bought all the recipe needed and cooked what we call HOLY HOKKIEN MEE since I don't use pork lard, pork crackling bits and fresh yellow noodles.Here's my recipe (if you don't mind the holiness):Half packet of Japanese udon ramen1/4 cup of

My school celebrated its 5oth Anniversary today. I was expecting lots and lots of alumni to crowd the school or at least the covered court but it was otherwise. Nevertheless, the event was a successful one. I didn't take a lot of pictures since Hobbit Hub was using it most of the time plus the weather was hot! Here are some that I took from the event. Food of course! LOL!

I was craving for something fried and crunchy. So at first I wanted fried potato patties from Mc D, but when we got there, they no longer have it in their menu. So I thought of KFC chicken rice and ordered my favorite KFC Yam Rice.I don't think they have Yam Chicken Rice in KFC Malaysia and other countries but Thailand. Yet KFCs differ from country to country and I usually love to try their

Boon Tong Kiat Singapore Chicken Rice is situated at soi 12/14, right opposite Villa Market at Thong Lor soi 15. From the name itself you can already guess what are their signature dishes.We were glad that at last our cravings for Singapore chicken rice can be easily satisfied by going to this restaurant but we were yet to know how the services and food is before we could make any judgments.As we

As we were strolling around Seacon Square, we noticed this Chinese-Thai fusion restaurant called 4 Seasons. In mood for some Chinese cuisine, we entered the place which welcomed us with a big golden "FU" pasted on the wall and noticed that there were several Thai-Chinese family and some just-out-of-work singles enjoying their dinner. Most of them concentrated on their food too much to hardly

I love eating suji semolina. Our Indian family doctor had introduced us to this staple many years ago. Hence my family members have then fallen in love with it.The simplest way to prepare suji is by oiling the pan and throw in some shallots to fry. Fry until the shallots is turning crispy then add suji according to servings. Stir-fry for 3 minutes and don't forget to add water to keep the suji

Living in Thailand and have the love for Japanese Gyoza, it is hard to find decent Gyoza that we enjoy. When we say this, it means Gyoza served without pork. Yes, we don't eat pork. Back in Malaysia, we could easily find Gyoza made with chicken and beef meat. Sometimes if you are lucky, you will bump into outside stalls that sells vegetarian Gyoza...how lucky! So we thought making it ourselves

We remembered a few years back in college, an Indian friend had taught us how to make Indian curry. So we thought that it would be nice to have curry for lunch today. Well, wanting something different from what we already know, we decided to try another Indian Chicken Curry that requires more ingredients from the ones that we used to prepare. So it took us about 30 minutes to finish cooking and
