Lechon Porchetta
I’m back with another recipe post! And this time it’s another way to prepare pork belly. Some of you might know that I’m partial to Filipino cuisine, and have actually shared a few recipes on my blog including the Tortang Talong, Banana Ketchup, Pork Adobo etc. Recently I’ve met quite a few talented artists from the…
Keto Pork Belly Adobo with Liver Sauce
Hi everyone! Today is the 33rd day of the MCO, I hope everyone is doing our part by staying at home and practising social distancing. The number of new cases have been slowly decreasing over the week and I really do hope that we will finally flatten the curve! And here I’d like to offer…
Viva Italia Sunday Brunch, Prego Westin Kuala Lumpur
There’s always this one thing I associate Italian food with: heartiness. No matter the dish, you know heart and soul is poured into creating them and the best produce are showcased. And when it comes to Italian restaurants, you really can’t go wrong with Prego at Westin Kuala Lumpur. Years ago I’d had the pleasure…
The Sticky Wicket, Damansara Heights
It’s been a while since I’ve been to an invited food review. And indeed, nowadays I have to be a little bit more picky in accepting these invites because of my dietary preference. So what does one do when you can only eat low carb at a group food review? Pick the items you can…
Keto Meatloaf with Mustard Caper Cream Sauce
One great thing about cooking at home is that you have the power to decide what to make; from something super simple like steak and fried eggs, to something a little bit more fancy that will wow the dinner company. For me, it depends entirely on my mood because even though I’m just as happy…
Easy Brussels Sprouts with Bacon
Ahhhh Brussels sprouts! You either hate it or love it. Appears frequently on Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner, it’s not exactly a common vegetable in Malaysia. However we are starting to see more and more grocers selling them at a reasonable price, and most of them are from Australia, so the quality is pretty good. Scarred…
Low Carb Pork Belly with Preserved Mustard Greens (Mui Choy Kau Yoke)
Two Pork Belly recipes in a row, I’m really not kidding when I said it’s my favourite. Us Chinese sure have a lot of wonderful recipes when it comes to cooking this wonderful piece of meat. From the tip of the tongue, there are Tau Yew Bak (Braised Soy Souce Pork Belly), Siew Yoke (of…
Sous Vide Siew Yoke
Words are not enough to describe how much I love pork belly. And most people would agree that Siew Yoke (literally translates to roast meat) is the best way to showcase Pork Belly, with the Crispy skin, melt-in-your-mouth fat layer and juicy meat, simply flavoured with salt, pepper and five-spice powder. But to achieve the…
Keto Menu, Pigs & Wolf and Three Little Pigs & The Big Bad Wolf
As the Low Carb High Fat lifestyle gains more public awareness, there are more and more dining options available in Klang Valley. A word of caution though, not everything that is tagged “keto” is completely compliant. Unfortunately, there are many service providers who just want to jump on the bandwagon without doing thorough research about…
