Garlicky Baked Fries

GARLIC FRIES I’m never going to make garlic potato fries any other way. These garlic fries, win hands down as the best garlic french fries I’ve ever made. Plus they are baked – so I won’t feel too guilty if I make it every time I’m craving for some potato comfort. When I read that there […]

Asparagus, Mint and Mushroom Frittata

I’m not so much of a breakfast person. But once in a while, especially on a weekend I like to go slow and prepare myself something more elaborate and hearty. Over the past weekend as I browsed through the River Café Cookbook (which I got at 80% discount at a local sale! :D), I came […]

Grilled Chicken and Vegetable Pasta

I’ve been on a sugar high of late and I’m slowly, but surely realising that this is not a very good thing. Although I keep telling my mum that I will be a more conscious eater once I hit the 25 mark, I know that starting sooner could only hold me in good stead. To […]

Three Pepper Spaghetti Carbonara

I’ve got to admit, I have a fear of raw eggs. Actually, fear is an understatement; it’s more like paranoia. And that it why it took me a lot of reading up to finally make some Spaghetti Carbonara. Right now Carbonara veterans and lovers probably think I’m crazy, and will tell me that the eggs […]

Lime and Mint Kebabs

This is a very easy recipe. I bought some chicken and wanted to make something with whatever I had at home instead of following a recipe because more often than not, there is always one ingredient that I need to hop to the grocer’s for and that’s such a waste of time. I came up […]

Sage Garlic Butter Gnocchi

Gnocchi (NYOH-kee) are Italian potato dumplings. They are often dubbed as “smart pasta” because unlike pasta, they rise to the surface when ready. Gnocchi are widely available frozen at supermarkets and are a convenient choice for a quick meal or a side dish. When something is easily available you just doesn’t feel like going through […]

Roast Chicken and Balsamic Vegetables

I have never made a whole stuffed chicken before and I was daunted by the task at hand. Folks at home usually prefer to buy boneless chicken or pre-cut pieces. And there is never any skin; so I’ve never seen a whole chicken being made. To begin with I read through Jamie Oliver’s The Naked […]
