Charred = great taste


Udon noodles again..
I added alot of vegetables to it ( i want lots of them in my diet )
Topped it with silverfish bought from the NTUC..
I baked them 10 mins 1side 10 mins the other..wasnt a good choice, they'd be better deep fried or pan fried..baking them didnt equal the texture out..
What to do ? Deep frying requires too much oil. Not for me.
Anyway, seasoned them with sesame oil, salt and miso paste.
Udon done with 小白菜, spring onions ( garnishing ) and garlic.
Used sesame oil to heat up the pan, then noodles and lastly vegetables..
Used soy sauce as seasoning. Letting the noodles get charred a bit makes it more fragrant, i find.
yummy...

nothing special


Nothing special, just wanted some vegetables and protein for my meal.
So, i went to get some lady fingers and egg whites.
Stir fried them with fish sauce and thats it.
Simple food....

To make the best pancake !

Pancake Trying to make a nice pancake....

I tried 2 types.

One with all purpose flour + sweet potato flour, the other with takopachi flour.

Ingredients were squid, spring onions, cabbage and chilli.

First one turned out more chewy than the 2nd one.

2nd one smells better, tasted better.

Ah..anyway, those were cannot-make-it pancakes !

I am going to try again..

time to puke at the sight of pancakes soon...n.n.....

You are to be blamed, PWWC !

Aunty's treat !

北京小吃

Oh, once a month, my mum and aunty would bring my grandmother for a gathering meal.
This time, we went to 老北京, it is located at Novena Square.
It was high tea, the moment we sat down..we got up and rushed to get the food displayed at the counter, it was buffet style...you could also order some steam buns, dumplings, noodles and pancakes from the menu..wasnt much variety..
Took a picture or 2, nothing facinating, really..the food wasnt that nice..well, you cant really expect very good food from the price of 15++ per head.
Anyway, we enjoyed the company of our family members which is the main reason of the gathering =)

Now, this is for own consumption

My own sandwich Aiya, no one would dare to eat this sandwich
The filling is kind of disgusting for normal people, haa..i used tomatoes, cucumber, lettuce, mustard, tuna and peanut butter.

When asked

Friend : " Weili, what is inside your sandwich today ? "

Me : " Haa ! tuna with peanut butter "

Friend : " eeyer, er xin ! "

HAA !!!

I want FATS


Steamed cod fish in home made sauce with thinly sliced ginger
Cod fish bought from NTUC, yucks lousy..not fresh, tasty a bit rubbery ( note : not due to my steaming process , HAA )
Homemade sauce : soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, cooking wine.
If the fish is fresh enough, simple sauce would do great wonders, you don't need fancy sauces for fresh food..

For the two of them !


Woke up at 5am to prepare this for 2 of my friends.
Nothing special, just normal sandwich vegetables.
I used lettuce, tomatoes, green peppers and onions.
Chicken was marinated in white sesame seeds, soy sauce, sugar and vinegar.
As for dressing, i mixed yellow mustard with mircale whip and a bit of ketchup.
Feedback was, Wah nice ! thanks weili !
HAA HAA HAA !

More vegetables into my diet please

Hmm..something quite similar to what i last posted.

Did some changes to the recipe.

This dish is all vegetables only, no meat.

Consist of red peppers, lotus root, shiitake mushrooms, onions and sweet beans.

Stir fried in sesame oil, soy sauce, sugar, vinegar and cooking wine.

Nice..

Oh vegetables


Wow this dish took me quite a long time to prepare..i had to simmer until the vegetables got soften.
Softened the vegetables in water and soy sauce.
probably an hour or more.
stir fried chicken pieces in soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, cooking wine and black pepper. Added in vegetables and stir fried for another couple of minutes.
Ate with rice..
