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…

My dear readers, apologies for not posting for one whole month, thank you all for tirelessly visiting the blog even when I’ve been away, I really appreciate it! Other than being busy with work, my family and I actually went on a 10 day vacation to North California, we saw many beautiful sights and ate…
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 Shredded Beef (From my friend Moureen)
I always admire ladies who are able to coordinate their lives even with a super busy schedule. My friend Moureen is definitely someone who can balance being a great Mom and run a successful frozen yogurt business, while still cook hot meals on a daily basis! I had lunch with her and another good friend…
Super Easy Thai Style Chicken Tenders
Hubby is not a big fan of chicken. Before we got married, I ate a lot more white meat than red meat, since my Mama is very health conscious. For the past 2 years I find myself cooking a lot of red meat because I want the whole family to enjoy dinner, but it’s probably…
Curry Chicken
Hello there! I have been craving Curry Chicken ever since Nami from Just One Cookbook shared her recipe a couple of weeks ago. Unfortunately my pantry lacked several of the ingredients that were needed, to make do I had to look around for something else to accommodate what I had on hand. This Curry Chicken…
Stuffed Fried Tofu
I remember eating pork stuffed tofu back at Taiwan, my Mama would braise them in soy sauce, though tasty, they were always a bit on the salty side. I bought some large fried tofu and decided they would work well as an ingredient for this recipe, the bean sprouts made things much lighter, which meant…
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…
Peppered Pork
Peppered Beef or Pork has always been kind of a mystery to me, are we talking about the bell pepper or are we talking about the black pepper? Since I’ve not figured this out yet, tonight’s dinner included BOTH! This is a very simple dish that requires less than 30 minutes from start to finish….
Asian Style Chicken Tenders
Promised my little girl to enjoy the fresh air and play with her buddies (while I chat with my buddies: The Moms) this afternoon, I was looking for an easy chicken recipe for tonight’s dinner that doesn’t require a lot of preparation. This turned out real well, and I’ve decided baking is a great way…
Kung Pao Chicken
Sorry for the lack of posting in the last few days, work has been swamped so I chose sleep over blogging late at night. Well the good thing is I didn’t let work get in the way of cooking, in fact I find food preparation so relaxing now a days, it’s really a good way…
Korean Style Pork Chop
It’s always good when the family’s buzzing around me when I am cooking, I assume it’s because the smell draws them there! Well this is a very simple dish to prepare, just need to remember the marinate the pork chop the night before to ensure the flavor soaks through… 10-12 pieces of thinly sliced pork…
