I have finally almost recovered from the whole ulcers/food poisoning/heat exhaustion shebang. I’m now 2kgs lighter (I’m sure they will creep back on soon enough) and still slightly sleep deprived. But I do feel more human like. This is the week I will catch up with all my back-logs (expect me spamming your feeds with…

Lemon and Herbs Baked Salmon with Dill Yoghurt Sauce
You’d think after I flooded my blog with Salmon recipes I’d be done with it for a while. But I guess not! I’m keeping my diet as clean as possible this week because I have been a naughty girl and wasn’t watching what I eat as much as I should. Hence the return of the…
Tofu Cheesecake with Strawberry Compote in a Jar
Couple of nights ago, I posted a photo on facebook and had many of you guessing what I was making. There were a lot of guesses from ice cream, yoghurt, Tau fu fa, to Panna Cotta with Peanut Butter Brittle (hahaha this is really not quite as fancy as that) and even Tapai (fermented rice,…
Sabah MFF: Tuaran Mee
The first time I’ve ever heard about Tuaran Mee was through a random conversation with my band’s keyboadist, who’s from Sabah. One thing that I’ve always been proud of is that our band represents 1 Malaysia, though that’s a story for another day I guess. Anyway, I did a little research and found Terri’s recipe…
Sabah MFF: Hinava (Kadazan Dusun Fish Salad)
This month, the Malaysian Food Fest takes us to Sabah, the other Malaysian state on our beloved Borneo Island. Although we were pretty much neighbours, the only experience I’d had with Sabah was a brief stopover at Kota Kinabalu airport many many moons ago. So unfortunately I haven’t had authentic Sabahan cuisine yet. What I…
Sarawak Laksa with Salmon
So the General Election has finally drawn to a close. Most Malaysians would have been glued to the social media sites/TV/Radio following the poll counting and some have been feeling disappointed with how it all unfolded. Regardless of the outcomes, don’t despair. I have a song for you. Never give up. Just gotta keep trying….
Vietnamese Rice Noodles Salad with Salmon (Bun Ca)
Having done the 2 Salmon with noodles posts (Japanese and Italian), I thought I’ll follow up with yet another version featuring the 2 great ingredients. Ms I-Hua suggested that I should try a salad version, hence this dish was born. Taking a great traditional Vietnamese recipe, and refresh it with some lovely pan-fried Salmon. The…
Ang Jiu (Foochow Red Wine) Chicken Soup with Mee Sua
A break from the fishy posts (though I’m glad you like the recipes) and here I present the ultimate comfort food: Chicken Soup. Not just your regular Chicken boiled with ginger and mushrooms, but with homemade Foochow Red Wine. That’s right, the bright hue might be a little confronting but most Sarawakians (or Sitiawan foochows)…
Creamy Smoked Salmon Spaghetti with Zucchini and Capers
Judging by the comments on the last post, most of you guys are enticed by the idea of combining Salmon and noodles together. Well here’s another treat for you, and this time I’ll take you to Italy. Uh…. not quite, unfortunately. But we are cooking a pasta dish with Salmon. I have a guilty pleasure…
Teriyaki Salmon and Yaki Udon (Fried Udon Noodles)
I might have mentioned before that Salmon is my favourite fish. It’s not only healthy with choke full of Omega 3 fatty acids, a good source of protein, high level of vit D (good for your bones), it’s also super versatile. You don’t really have to do too much to the already flavourful flesh. Usually…
