Pineapple Char Siu Chicken

Pineapple char siu chicken

Pineapples make a very beautiful dish, both in colour and in taste. I find it very appetising. I love to use fresh pineapples in my cooking especially in sweet and sour chicken. But this dish, Pineapple Char Siu Chicken is my first attempt. I think it’s delicious and I liked it. If you like something sour and sweet, you’ll most likely like this dish. You can check out my recent post on ‘How To Cut A Pineapple‘ if you have difficulty cutting pineapples. It’s simple and fun.

This is my dad’s favourite dish. It is simple, easy, quick, delicious and vegetarian. My dad always said this dish is nutritious and good for health. I like it because it’s a little sour and sweet. It’s delicious with rice or even scooped over noodles or pasta. My children don’t like raw tomatoes but they like this Tomato and Coriander Egg.

Mango Raspberries Smoothie

Mango raspberries smoothie

I am finally persuaded……..to enjoy smoothie! I have never liked smoothie. It’s cold, thick and sweet. But lately my children had been enjoying Mango Raspberries Smoothie. They were explaining to me that they were trying to eat more fruits! They served me a glass and….wow…..that was really good! But I felt so cold after that. Imagine having cold smoothie in this freezing weather? I took a look at my watch and goodness me, it was 11 p.m.! I just had to shut down my computer and jump into bed under my thick duvet and off into my dreamland…..zzzzz

Mixed Vegetables Stir Fry With Curry And Honey

I love to cook mixed vegetables. Not only does it look colourful, healthy and fresh but it’s a way to make everyone eat more vegetables. A quick stir fry retains it’s crunchiness and sweetness. I stir fried it with curry and honey the other day and my family liked it very much. There’s a mild curry taste and the light sweetness from the honey. It was very easy to cook. Here’s my simple recipe.

Char Siu Chicken Rice Porridge (Congee)

Char siu chicken rice porridge

Cooking rice porridge or congee is my favourite for 2 main reasons. Firstly my family loves it very much no matter how I cook it and secondly it is very easy to cook and you can go wild with your creativity.

I have been eating a lot of porridge since my stomach upset last week. It was easy for the stomach as I didn’t have much appetite. I progressed from plain porridge to vegetables porridge and then finally with some eat added. Char siu chicken porridge was my best. I only had 2 small slices of the chicken then. Just thought my stomach needed more rest.

Baked Spring Chicken And Egg Bok Choy

Baked spring chicken

Baked Spring Chicken and Egg Bok Choy was what my children cooked for dinner when I was down with a bad stomach upset a few days ago. I’m really glad that they cooked quite a big plate of vegetables. It looks simple, delicious and healthy. I think their photography is not bad too.

They had Teriyaki Salmon Jacket Potato for lunch, but without vegetables. I think they knew they would be questioned so they cooked a big plate of vegetables for dinner to show me….haha.
