Despite the washing up after, cooking is always my calming charm.
Among other things we share interest in, my husband and I have 1 very special thing in common, WE HEART STEAK. I mean, the biggest fan!! Especially char grilled with all the fatty bits on and we could have it everyday if it doesn’t lead to any cardiac arrest or make us fat like cows. …
Pumpkin is a humble vegetable that is incredibly rich in vital antioxidants, and vitamins. Good for you, good for your baby too! I usually add pumpkin into my baby’s rice porridge, fritata or puree them alone.

Magically and fortunately, my 3 year old loveeeessss broccoli! And it’s quite weird that she won’t eat mac and cheese unless there’s broccoli in them. You make mummy happy Aleysha! hehe!

Came home from the office, opened up my freezer and I only saw 4 lonely chicken breasts in it. No fish, no seafood, no meat, no ice cream. So tonight, chicken again! Well anyways they’re still food. Typically I would just pan grill it or stir-fry with vegetables and serve it with rice. However, …
Fresh corn kernles, prawns, onion, red and green chillies, flour and mix with some water. Drop batter into deep fry oil and fry till it’s crispy and golden brown. Serve hot with chili sauce. Pretty easy, pretty good. Happy Sunday ya’ll!
Lamb is one of my favorite meat. Usually I would simply marinate them in garlic and rosemary or honey mustard, grill it and serve it with mint jelly and mash or fries…you know the standard lamb dish. But tonight, I feel like bringing the family to Morocco for dinner for a while! ;P So, I …
