Korean Fried Chicken / Ayam Goreng Korea

Star Q



Ever since the influx of several cooking programmes on television highlighting Korean dishes,  I must admit that I am more than intrigued by the popularity generated through them.  Plus, the fact that my kids have had the chance to sample some Korean dishes, added to the excitement to know what the buzz was all about.

Ayam Cocoh

Star Q



My duty was to fetch our daughter who was coming home for the first time after her registration in one of the local universities.  It did not matter that it had only been slightly more than a week since then, or the fact that I had to wait for about one hour and fifteen minutes for her commuter train to arrive at the station.  I was just happy she was coming home.

Chicken with Ras el Hanout

Star Q



Sometimes I laugh at myself for being a bit peculiar compared to other people.  But on a second thought being peculiar or different from other people is not a bad thing after all; especially when I am not doing anything bad!

Curry Shepherd's Pie

Star Q



My daughter was feeling under the weather the other day.  She is quite picky with the food that we prepare at home and she is even more so when she is not feeling well.  She didn't really have to tell what she wanted to eat.  I just knew.

Rendang Ayam Daun Puding

Star Q



We have been making rendang for Hari Raya for as long as I can remember.  We had Rendang Tok, we had rendang Putih, we had Duck Rendang and most of all we had the Beef Rendang with dried red chillies.  However, we have never made rendang ayam with daun puding (chicken rendang with puding leaves)

Ikan Bakar Ramadhan

Star Q



The name Ikan Bakar Ramadhan (Ramadhan Grilled Fish) is a suitable name for this dish given that I actually made time to prepare it, considering the fact that it is quite difficult to prepare; as far as I am concerned.

Ketupat Sotong - Stuffed Squids

Star Q


There are times when I have the urge to try something new or something that I have longed to make but have never had the opportunity to do so.  Cooking something that I have never cooked before and with no background knowledge of what the dish actually tastes like, can be quite stressful.

Kari Nangka dengan Ayam

Star Q


It is always time to reminisce when you spend time in the kitchen cooking dishes that your mother or grandmother used to cook; bringing back a sense of nostalgia if you will.  The dishes you prepare may never be the same as how they have prepared, but it's just a way for you to remember them.
