FollowAs I was reading the newspapers the other day, I came across a very delish noodle dish that I was very sure my fussy kids would love. Plus it’s simple to prepare too. So the same week itself, I whipped up Jar Jiang Mien. Ingredients needed are: – Minced pork – Julienned carrots (for garnishing…

Yummy Home-cooked Dishes
For those of you who are deprived of home-cooked dishes, sorry if I made you drool and your tummy rumble with these dishes that my mil and hubs’ aunt cooked: ‘Jai’ (vegetarian dish). I can survive on nothing but this dish for a day or two. Just love all the ingredients used to cook this…
Maggie Mee Craze
Who said instant noodles are only for the under privileged? My privileged kids think maggie mee aka instant noodles are a luxury. That’s because I hardly allow them to eat them. And even if I do, I don’t use the seasoning that comes with the instant noodles. I will either stir fry the noodles or…
Udon Noodles With Anchovies + Chicken Broth
I whipped this up for the kids’ lunch last week. It was so lip smacking delish that they all requested for it again the next day! Here’s the pot of soup made from lightly pan fried anchovies and chicken bones, boiled for an hour. While the pot of soup is wholesome, the commercially made fish…
Dad’s homecooked dishes
When my parents were here 2 weeks ago, my dad cooked dinner for us on most of the nights. My dad has a penchant for cooking and can cook very well, though he has no training whatsoever, besides having an interest in watching cook shows on TV. He also loves to bring us to new places…
More Of Home-Cooked Catered Food
One thing I like about this caterer is that her dishes are varied and we hardly ever got the same dish for the past 2.5 weeks. But the combo of some of her dishes can be quite weird, like pumpkin cooked with curry powder! Egg Omelette with sausages, fake crab sticks and long beans. My first…

Homemade spaghetti bolognaise
I made spaghetti with beef bolognaise sauce for lunch the other day. And the sauce is a healthy and wholesome one with lots of chopped celery, carrots, tomatoes, big onions and fresh shiitake mushrooms. The bottled spaghetti sauce is supposedly preservative-free and MSG-free. This plate is for Baby. Check out the 2 containers at the…

My Homecooked Dishes
These are some of the simple and wholesome homecooked dishes that I whipped up recently: Stir-fried leek flower and celery with homemade fish paste. Bean sprout omelette. This dish was created after a grandma whom I’ve known at the morning mobile market saw me buying bean sprouts. She then told me to try making bean sprouts omelette.…
A Sandwich That The Kids Absolutely Love
I hardly ever buy sausages and deli meat for my girls. I think they are in the same category with junk food as they are laden with preservatives, sodium and other food additives. Plus, you don’t even know the quality of meat used. As with all forbidden food, my kids absolutely love sausages. If I…
Kaya (Coconut Jam) Cooked In Slow Cooker
I had finished my mum’s homemade kaya and bought those on-the-shelf kaya from the mini mart. But the kaya tasted awful – it was diabetes-inducing sweet and tasteless, with very little santan taste and a tad rancid taste too. My girls love kaya too and they had been asking me for kaya each time they…
My Homecooked Dishes
My mil has been away in HK for almost a month now…. and yes, I managed to dish up healthy and tasty dishes for my kiddos. Here are some of my ‘sau sai’ (culinary skill)… Stir fried fresh udon noodles with purple cabbage, chicken meat, garlic and onions. There are 2 types of udon noodles…

Goodies Made With Love From Home
When she’s around, I don’t have to worry about food on the table – 3 meals a day. She prefers homemade breads, cakes, cookies and homecooked food. When she’s around, she would discourage eating out and even discourages buying bread, buns and cakes from the bakery for she will bake them. Here are some of…
