Baked these deliciousness last night – mouthwatering, flavorful beef and potato curry filling encased in crispy, buttery pastry – the combination is absolutely heady! Indulge with family and friends or freeze for future treats because you would not be able to stop at just one or two or even three. :) Enjoy! Make the filling […]
Main Dishes
Malaysian Nasi Lemak
O.M.G. Everything is so delicious and goes fantastic together! The hours of toiling to make the sambal and the body aches afterwards are well-worth it after all! Lol. Behold the Nasi Lemak dish… Recipe for the fragrant, rich coconut rice can be found in a previously published post – Nasi Lemak (Coconut Rice). Alternatively, you […]
Turmeric Fried Chicken
In addition to the basic accompaniments, I decided to make fried chicken as well to go with the nasi lemak. So simple but yet so delicious! About 4-1/2 pounds chicken legs/drumsticks* 2-1/2 teaspoons (regular table) salt 3-1/2 teaspoons turmeric powder Peanut oil or other oil for deep-frying *You can use whichever chicken parts you prefer. […]

Stir-Fried Laksa Noodles
Unlike the traditional version of laksa that I grew up with, where the noodles are served in a mouthwatering savory, piquant laksa broth, this drier version is equally as delicious. It’s laksa! You can’t go wrong either way. Enjoy! 1 (6.75 ounces) package rice noodles/rice sticks/bee hoon/maifun* 1/2 tablespoon oil 4 large eggs, beaten 1 […]
Christmas Lunch

Ham Fried Rice
Ham, ham, and more ham! The problem with having ham for a holiday meal is that there is always sooooooooooo much leftover and one would have to keep thinking of different ways to use it. Here’s an easy option for those of you looking to do something slightly different than your typical leftover ham sandwich. […]
Easy and Delicious Sliders
I saw a similar recipe a while back but did not give it a try until a couple of months ago when I was reminded by a co-worker. Since then, I have made my version of this recipe multiple times because it is so ridiculously easy that I’m not sure it should even be considered a […]
Favorite Mac and Cheese
It’s getting colder and grayer – I knew we would be paying for all those gorgeous, blue sky days. Seriously, I do love fall…it’s just that I know what will be coming next…the dreaded season that starts with “w.” Why can’t winter just be around during the week, you know, and then every weekend, we […]
