This is another popular street food in South East Asia – something I would not have considered making at home if I live there. Traditionally, the stew consists of pork and various pig organs but for simplicity and convenience, pork tenderloin or other pork cuts would suffice and be as delicious! Enjoy! {Adapted from Spice […]

Chicken Egg Rolls
The deep-frying saga continues today, lol. Another thing I craved recently is fried spring rolls. I ended up making egg rolls instead since I didn’t feel like going to the Asian store to buy spring roll wraps. I have to say I am pretty impressed with the Nasoya egg roll wraps – everything you need […]
Fried Chicken Wings
Made some fried chicken wings yesterday using the seasoning mix my sis sent me a while back. Soooooooo good! ❤️

Tuna Salad
I actually put this together late last night before I went to bed, anticipating that we would want something easy-peasy for lunch today and I’m all out of leftovers, lol. Delicious! 2 (7 ounce) cans tuna (I use Chicken of the Sea Tuna Chunk Light) 3/4 cup mayo 2 tablespoons sweet relish 1 stalk celery, […]
Rambutans
Rambutans in Costco??? Shocking! So Keith was in Costco last Saturday and came across these rambutans – he bought a pack and forgot to tell me about it till this afternoon, lol. I’m so surprised! It has been over 20 years since I last ate fresh rambutans. I remember as a child, I would often […]
Black Forest Organic Gummy Bears
I haven’t eaten gummy bears for a looooong time. I’m glad there are healthier options now that are free of dyes. I’m partial to the orange and strawberry flavors – delicious! 😁
Fried Radish Cake and Porridge
I had fried radish cake (made this a while back and froze it and promptly forgot I have it until a couple of days ago, lol) and simple porridge with stir-fried green beans and roasted peanuts for breakfast. Comfort food indeed! ❤️ Radish cake recipe is from MyKitchen101en.com. Porridge is simply made from rice (I […]
Shrimp and Avocado Sushi Bowls
We enjoyed homemade shrimp and avocado sushi bowls this evening – all the deliciousness without the hassle of making actual sushi rolls. 😁 Make the rice: 2 cups short-grain rice (I use Kokuho Rose Rice) 2 cups water 1/2 cup sushi vinegar (I use Nishiki Sushi Vinegar) Rinse rice with water until water runs almost […]
