Not too long ago, Farwin, a food blogger and writer/photographer behind the blog, Love and other Spices got in touch with me wishing to introduce Sri Lankan cuisine to Rasa Malaysia readers. I was thrilled as I have never been to Srilanka and would love to learn more about the food and its culture. Farwin is a Sri Lankan currently…
A fellow Malaysian at Ohio Wagyu sent me some of his farm-raised wagyu beef. He flew the beef overnight to me, and when I received them, they were still ice cold and frozen. My favorite of all was the flank steak, which I used to make the ponzu and miso butter steak, and the leftover, I made them into Chinese…
It has been more than three years since I posted my Beef Rendang recipe. I am pleasantly surprised that to this day I still get the occasional inquiry and request with regards to protein substitution, alternative cooking methods, or the usage of a different spice mix to make the paste. Especially after September of last year, when Rendang topped the…
I hope you have had a lot of fun following my Lunar New Year series. To close this festive celebration on a sweet note, here is the much-loved and popular peanut dumplings (花生汤圆) recipe, served in a ginger syrup. If you remember, I posted the popular black sesame dumpling recipe a few years ago (which caused quite a big stir…
I am so thrilled that I am featured on The Kitchn, a site for people who like to get their hands dirty while they cook. Since Lunar New Year is around the corner, I thought I’d share one of my favorite recipes from my cookbook.

One example is steamed fish because the Chinese word for fish 鱼(yú) sounds similar to the word 余, which means surplus or abundance. Another is whole…
I am so thrilled that I am featured on Design Sponge, the mega home design website that everyone loves. Since Lunar New Year is around the corner, I decided to make pan-fried pork, shrimp, and cabbage dumplings. I had a lot of fun creating and devouring the dainty and delicious pan-fried dumplings. This recipe will be excellent for Lunar New…
One of the Chinese New Year goodies I love to eat is mini spring rolls filled with bits of pork, chicken, or shrimp floss. They are the crispiest munchies for the festivities and my nieces love making them as they always have so much fun assembling, rolling, frying, and then eating the mini spring rolls. I am happy that my…
Lunar New Yearis lurking around the corner and 10 days away. (Lunar New Year or the year of Dragon falls on January 23 this year.) Our family will be celebrating Chinese Lunar New Year and I’m sure many of my readers will be observing the festivities. Chinese Lunar New Year is all about non-stop eating. Throw in fire crackers, lion…
Lunar New Year is celebrated throughout Asia, notably China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Korea, and Southeast Asia countries such as Malaysia, Singapore, and Vietnam. Even though I know that Koreans celebrate Lunar New Year, I don’t really know much about the traditions.
