My afternoon tea


A treat for my mum who wanted scones she had tried at Genting Highlands. Instead of English breakfast or Earl Grey tea, it's teh tarik to accompany my fluffy scones 😊

What a delightful and syiok English-Melayu afternoon treat 😉

Chilli Crab

My maiden attempt at cooking crabs, and it tasted so good 😜

It's campak-campak dishes today

Beef in black soya sauce with potatoes. Basically it's daging masak kicap, my style.


This week, non-fish eater hubby bought 3 pieces of pomfret. Today, it's pomfret air fried and refried with onions, apple cider, salt and sugar (note to self: must reduced or totally eliminate sugars in food). In other words, it's ikan bawal goring cuka.

There's also kuah pindang with pomfret from yesterday which I added kacang panjang (long beans) and celery. I also made asam pedas tetel, and coincidently, Mak gave lauk nangka with tetel as well. So in case, I run out of ideas, I can refer here ;)

Soupy stuff

When the hub is tired of meat and does not eat fish, he requested for plain soup. I was like, 'huh!'. So here are some soupy stuff for me to refer to when I ran out of ideas ...

Plain clear soup with carrots and potatoes. 
Asam rebus with squids and lady's fingers. Squids because he does not eat fish.

Two types of mushrooms with slice beef and cili padi for a bit of kick.


From the same beef broth above but without mushroom and cili padi for the little kiddo.

This is not soup, but with just a little thick gravy ala hotplate beancurd but because I had put it in a container, it's does not look as pretty but sure is tasty.

I usually cook at night for the next day. So once cooked, they are kept in containers. The helper only needs to heat them up when it's time to eat the next day for the kids and hub if he eats at home in the day. I usually only eat for dinner.

So that's the life of a working mum!
