I am not much of a baker, but I love baking banana nut muffins that perfumed my house with the sweet aroma of bananas and the unmistakably something-is-baking buttery fragrance. Banana nut muffins are probably one of the most popular muffins–not to mention utterly delicious. My banana nut muffins recipe is adapted from Food Network. It’s really simple and non-baker…
I do eat vegetables and other foods. I really do. I just don’t post them that much on this blog (which I intend to change soon) because seafood dishes are a lot more photogenic than, say, tofu, beans, turnip, chicken with skin and bones. I am partial to seafood, but I also love my greens, poultry/pork, eggs, soy products, and…
This is Kabab Koobideh, a Persian dish, but this is actually a post about my encounter with Kabab Nazi. It’s a fun post because I put in some effort to write it, so I beg you to read on. Once upon a time ago, I had a favorite joint for work lunch, a Persian buffet restaurant just a stone’s throw…
As Cynthia of Tastes Like Home puts it: “Separately (mango & lobster), they are heavenly. Combined? They are sinfully good.” She was spot on. This mango and lobster salad was refreshing, light, and mangolicious. For me, the ideal ratio is approximately 1.5 mango: 1 lobster to get that perfect and harmony balance. Plus, mangoes are just too good, so the…
Just think of this as an episode of Iron Chef…the chairman says “The secret ingredient is… LOBSTER. A la cuisine!” I rush out to the aquarium frantically, catch my prey, and off I run to the “Kitchen Stadium” and start cooking. I whip up dishes upon dishes of drool worthy lobster dishes to the judges and then the chairman announces…
(Chinese recipes, prepare authentic Chinese food now!) Scallops on the half shell are hard to find, as far as I know. I have been searching high and low for them for quite some time now. I asked, I looked, I googled, but I hadn’t found any stores that sell them in SoCal–until I found the seafood store that I mentioned…
It was almost perfect…except for a little flaw. Look closely and you will see those little dried chili bits. I’ve got to get a new food processor that is powerful enough to blend the dried chilies finely…
My parents are huge fans of nasi kandar–a type of Mamak/Indian-Muslim food consists of steamed rice with a variety of curries and other side dishes. (Click here and here for a peek of a nasi kandar restaurant and its many colorful dishes.) When I was little, my parents would always take me to nasi kandar restaurants. I remember vividly their…
(Chinese recipes, prepare authentic Chinese food now!) I have never cooked crawfish at home. I have to confess that these little feisty and fierce some creatures almost had me surrender and call for rescue. Handling these crawdads and crawmoms ain’t no piece of cake. I totally underestimated them. However, at the first bite of their juicy tails and heads, I…
What do I eat when I get very lazy? A plate of home-made Penang chee cheong fun (click here to see the real stuff), or steamed rice rolls with shrimp paste. Gourmet Food? No. Satisfaction? Yes. Nostalgic? Check. Certified-fresh, delicious, and hassle-free for lazy bums? Absolutely! Here are my quick guide to this lazy-person dish…
