Mixed Herbs Fried Rice With Omelette Shreds Topping

Piggy Cuz bought back a few bottles of mixed herbs for me from UK and now I can use it generously :p She is such a gem and brought back birthday pressies from UK for me for my birthday. Will show you what she gave me when the big day comes * wink...well... soon... soon...be patience :)  She always springs surprises on me...but I do love surprises though !  Thanks Piggy Cuz for the pressies.

Back to this fried rice..well..I make it simple by just adding dried mixed herbs, chopped chicken ham, dash of white pepper and sea salt.  Garnish with omelette shreds....this is want I meant by simple cooking. I blanched some lettuce and garnish with deep fried crispy garlic and oyster sauce to go with the fried rice. Yummy! ...training  Daddy to eat simple for a day  days to come  :p till I get back my stamina !

Stir Fry Dory With Yellow Capsicum And Red Onion Peels

I have been busy lately with work up to my neck ...came back tired and I just want to relax, put up my feet and watch a movie to de-stress , so cooking is simple lately. I took out a packet of dory fillets and took out whatever there are in the fridge and cook this for dinner for the two of us . Carrots, yellow capsicum, ginger and red onions.....tired as I can be, I still make an effort to whip up something delicious with the dory fillets :p

Salmon Cubes With Organic Seaweed Tofu

If I have my way , I would love to have salmon in my meals everyday. But this pricey fish can only be savored once in a blue moon. How sad...this fish is so good for us and yet we can indulged everyday :(  Not only is it delicious but has a lot of omega 3 in them . There are so many ways to cook salmon. Pan seared to smoked  to baked .... they will turned out delicious. Salmon has a natural subtle saltish taste so we don't really need to add a lot of salt . Just a pinch of salt will do and I can forget my surname for a moment while indulging in this lovely cooked salmon . I love experimenting  with different method of cooking it ...give me a few minutes to be alone and I can surprise you with a delicious mouth-watering plate of salmon cubes .

Deep Fried Stuffed Chicken Wings

There was this little quaint shop in old town selling fried ice cream, portugese egg tarts , chicken pies, curry puffs and some nice snacks . This quaint shop is just opposite to ' The Hall of Mirror ' coffee shop.  I would normally buy some egg tarts for Joshua to take back to KL. He loves the Portuguese Egg Tarts from this particular quaint shop.

I saw some nice looking deep fried stuffed chicken wings . I could not resist buying a pair back for our dinner . I was a bit curious to know what was inside the wings * RM3 per stuffed wing , it does looks delicious. I was not disappointed , crispy on the outside and deliciously tasty on the inside.

Homemade Chicken Burger II

After spending two weeks with my youngest Piggy Joshua , I realized that my boy has really grown into a young adult.  A matured young adult ! and it just tells me that I am going downhill and my time with my kids and hubby has shortened.  It reminded me that it is not how much time I still have with them but how much quality time I spend with them . Now that he has gone back to college and starting his 3rd year second semester....I feel an emptiness that I can't explained. I thought baking and cooking and watching HK dramas will fill up the emptiness but nope I still miss my babies...one still in UK and one in KL :(

Baked Chicken Fillets In Papilotte

Shallots and ginger are the main key ingredients in this recipe and with these ingredients rubbed onto the chicken fillets and marinated with oyster sauce and sesame oil... gosh ...you can imagine how fragrant this combo would be ! :)  Wonderful burst of flavors and no wonder my family love them prepared this way. Wrapped them in papilotte and baked for 20 minutes...juicy and moist tender chicken fillets with the wonderful aroma trapped in the papilotte to whet one's appetite.  A wonderful treat for Josh before he goes back to college.  The other version is to wrap them in greaseproof paper and deep fried them in a wok. But for health reason I baked them instead  :)
