I have a story to tell you about my first encounter with egg foo young, the quintessential Chinese-American dish. A long time ago, when I first set my foot on the US soil for higher education, I went straight to the middle America. After 36 hours of tiresome journey from my hometown of Penang, Malaysia, I arrived in the state…
One of the most popular recipes on Rasa Malaysia is Chow Mein, or Chinese fried noodles. The current chow mein recipe on my site is made with pork (and shrimp), and many readers have asked me to share a chicken chow mein recipe. I have many readers from all over the world; some of them don’t eat pork and some don’t…
My friend Marvin Gapultos at Burnt Lumpia has come out with a new book: The Adobo Road Cookbook. I have known Marvin for many years, way back then when I first started blogging. All these years we stay connected via emails, exchanging emails once in a while. So, I am really happy that his cookbook is out and that we share…
It’s May! The temperature is definitely rising and the sun has been coming out to play. In Irvine, we have been getting really warm days. Today, the highest temperature is in the low 90′s, and in the past few days, the mouthwatering smell of barbeque has been wafting in the air around my neighborhood. It’s never too early to break…
I am thrilled to be a part of KitchenAid Cook for the Cure campaign to celebrate this year’s Mother’s Day, which falls on May 12th. More than a decade after introducing its first pink product to help raise funds and awareness for the fight against breast cancer, KitchenAid is celebrating a major milestone: more than $9 million raised to date through its…

Made with succulent and marinated shrimp and cheddar cheese (yes, cheese!), they are bound to wow your palate and have you begged for more. Everyone could use some spring rolls, and this spring roll…
On lazy days when I don’t want to fire up my wok and make a traditional Chinese stir-fry or wok cooking, I always make use of my oven to prepare easy and breezy meals. One of my favorite things to make is Chinese chicken parcels, marinated and wrapped with aluminum foil and baked in the oven. The end results are always…
Gyoza or Japanese potsticker is a crowd pleaser. These pan-fried dumplings are very versatile as you can use different ingredients as the filling. The filling ranges from ground pork, chicken, beef, shrimp, fish, seafood, or a combination of the different proteins. Vegetable such as shredded napa cabbage or regular cabbage is often added to enhance the flavor. Even though gyoza…
When it comes to Chinese cooking, soy sauce and oyster sauce are two of the most used sauces. However, there are other sauces that taste great, but are less common, for example: Hoisin sauce. Hoisin sauce is usually used as a dipping sauce, for example: Peking duck. Hoisin sauce, or in Chinese, 海鲜酱, literally means seafood sauce, but ironically, there…
First, I wanted to start by saying that these glazed lemon-ginger scones were really amazing and I had four of them right out of the oven, and the next morning, I ate more!
