Green Onion Pancakes

Hi friends! Hope you had a great weekend! Those of you who “Liked” my Facebook page probably realize I have been a cooking fool the last few days… This is kind of unusual because just take a look at the title of my blog “Weeknite Meals”, you should have figured out I don’t normally hang…

Easy Korean Seafood Pancake

Hi everyone! LONG time no see, I am not too proud to leave you guys hanging, though this is my 200th posting, and I was waiting to share something very special. Even though I’ve been cooking and testing recipes on a regular basis, but nothing seemed worthy of being the “IT” posting. In my mind…

Simplified Hue Noodle Soup (Bun bo Hue)

Happy Friday everyone! It’s been a very productive week here, I’ve worked on many fun creative projects, preparing to start on a few exciting ones, even found time to do some bookkeeping (My absolute least favorite thing about running a small business). Since the week has been a busy one, at evening time I’ve been…

Crock Pot Pork & Egg Stew Noodles

How’s everyone’s 2012 going so far? January is usually a bit slow for me business wise, so I was a little surprised at the work load there are this week, it’s definitely a great surprise though, because to tell you the truth, I am ALL PARTIED OUT from the festivities of last year’s holiday season,…

Pearl Balls (Blog Sitting for Nami @ Just One Cookbook)

Hello Friends! I hope you are done with holiday shopping and is prepared for Christmas festivities! We don’t actually do much gift exchange in this household, but little girl and all her cousin do get gifts from “Santa” and each other, the funny thing is I normally look for great deals online for next year’s…

Jap Chae (Korean Potato Starch Noodles)

Hi everyone! This is the first week my little girl started second grade, first week of school is always an exciting time, not a lot of home work yet, though plenty of school paper works to fill out for the parents. I’ve started her Chinese lessons again on Monday, this week is really more about…

Sunday at Gramps, Dumpling Making!

Just wanted to share a couple photos of my little girl learning the art of dumpling making from scratch! (Above photo was taken while we were preparing the dough for dumpling skin). My Mom had the stuffing ready when we arrives. Pretty interesting combination this time around, because my Auntie (who runs a produce whole…

Miso Ramen!

Ever since we came back from San Francisco last month, I have been craving ramen noodles on a daily basis. Not the dried instant kind, but the kind that you can only get from a real Japanese noodle house. I’ve looked everywhere online, the only one I can find is located at North Houston, it…

Flat Noodle with Black Bean Garlic Sauce

Did everyone have a great weekend? It’s getting unbearably hot at Texas, so we mostly did indoor activities. I was able to re-organize my closet and that was a huge task, a fantastic one that still makes me smile from ear to ear! The whole project took less than $50, my little girl was especially…

Dumplings dinner plate

On the nights when my hubby has to work late, little girl and I normally eat something semi-homemade. I have had the pleasure of reading up blog postings from ladies who make beautifully displayed bento boxes lately (Cooking Gallery and My Little Messy and Cheeky), even though I am not remotely as creative, but the…

Stir fried Udon

I have never actually had stir fried udon before (boy was I missing out!), though I know my cousin in law makes a mean one. She was gracious enough to share her Mom’s recipe with me, I also looked over Nami at Just One Cookbook’s recipe, of course realizing I didn’t have all the necessary…

Beef Noodle Soup (150th Posting!)

My parents make a killer Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup, it normally takes a whole day of prepping and cooking, just the thought of eating it makes my mouth water! I have been searching for an easier alternative that’s also tasty, my goodness this could be the one! My husband normally complains about the amount of…
