The Great Chef

The other day, out of a sudden I craved so desperately wanted to eat a piece of cake.  Thought I could make a quick bake for a cheesecake.  So I look into my fridge, duh....no cream.  So I've to forget about baking a cheesecake as it was already 5pm and doesn't want to go out to just buy cream.  And another quick tinkle came to mind, what about brownies?  So go back to the fridge to search for all the ingredients, duh.....I run out of chocolate.  So I told myself forget all about baking a cake for that day.  So, no cakes to eat and instead I just grab a Copycat Famous Amos chocolate chips cookies to munch. While searching in the web for brownies the other day, I have bookmarked two sites but I ended using the Joy Of Baking instead. Brownies Ingredients 150g semisweet or bittersweet chocolate, chopped (I used VH semisweet dark chocolate) 113g unsalted butter, cut into pieces 15g cocoa powder 200g granulated white sugar   (I used 140g only) 1 teas...

I love to eat beef.   Previously I very often used to take beef noodles for breakfast and would go for one particular beef noodle stall here in JB town but eversince that owner decided to close down his famous noodle shop, I can't find any good beef noodle here anymore.  One day I found out that there's another similar beef noodles stall in Kluang and it was run by that beef noodle's siblings.   And so, since I love their version of beef noodle, I go all the way to Kluang to have one bowl of beef noodle for breakfast and drive back home ! When you love to eat one particular food, you wouldn't mind to drive all the way there no matter how far it is, right? While I loves to eat beef noodle, the funny thing is I hardly buy beef from the market and cook at home.  But now it has changed my view now eversince Wendy's and Alan  posted their Beef Brisket Noodle.  I remember I ate this Onn Kee's Beef Brisket Noodles since I am young (my dad's shop is just less than...

There are so many recipes that I have bookmarked I wanted to try out but sometimes when I am not in the mood to cook, I have to tell myself it is better not to do it at all .   I wanted to eat this "Lor Mai Fan" so desperately and have been eyeing it since Wendy of Table for 2...or more posted her Lor Mai Fan 3 weeks ago.   One failure I made is the roasted char siew.....duh.....I made it in a jiffy as I was not prepare to cook this lor mai fan at all that day.  I took out the meat from the fridge and prepare to marinated it.  I didn't marinate it for long and just go ahead to bake it.  Call that impatient and resulted the meat wasn't nice to eat at all. But nevertheless, the glutinous rice is so yummy and fragrant.  I like it.  Of all the food I have during my childhood time in Kampar, this is the food, Lor Mai Fan that I don't prefer to put the curry sauce in it.  There was a time, many many years ago, I was back to Kampar for a visit, and...
