I wanted to make Ceviche for a long time since I enjoyed it at my brother-in-law’s house, but I just couldn’t find fresh Fish fillets that were suitable for Ceviche. Then yesterday, my family enjoyed a special Japanese dinner of Sushi and Sashimi, that we bought from a Japanese take away shop, for our wedding …
This is a variation of my ‘Simple Yoghurt & Lemon Cake’. I added canned Pineapple to it. As I used more Yoghurt for this cake, it is very moist and has cheesecake-like texture. This cake is easy to make, and a regular size tin of Pineapple Slices is enough for the cake, but you could …
This is a variation of my ‘Basic Custard’. Because Lemon Juice is added to it, more Sugar and Flour are necessary. I tend to add Butter to this Custard because I believe Butter improve the lemon flavour, but Butter is optional. It can be used for a variety of desserts. Ingredients 1 cup (250ml) Milk3 …
I was given a very ripe Papaya. I am actually not a big fan of Papaya, which flavour is very bland. I tasted the Papaya that I was given, and it was VERY soft and VERY sweet. I knew I wouldn’t enjoy eating it, but I didn’t want to waste it. Then I decided to …
Is this another type of Magic Cake? I was trying to recreate a Lemon Custard Cake that I saw on the internet. I used my own cake batter, but I realised it was too thick for what I was trying to make. And the Custard was too much and it covered the batter completely. I …
I often make these Chicken Bites using Shiso. However, Shiso is not easy to find for many people. It is impossible for me to buy it from stores, so I grow Shiso at home. Anyway, this recipe is easy for everyone because it uses Basil, dry OR fresh. Today I used Dry Basil, but you …

My husband’s auntie Joan gave her Lemon Cake recipe to my daughter many years ago. It is a Lemon Syrup Cake. I was making the cake today, then I realised that I had Oranges as well. I thought the cake would be more delicious if I used both Orange juice and Lemon juice, so I …
The other day, I wanted to make Tabbouleh as I had a lot of Parsley and Mint. To make Tabbouleh, I most likely use Burghul (Cracked Wheat), but I didn’t have any. I added chopped Cauliflower instead, and guess what. It was more delicious than the Tabbouleh made with Burghul. I must share this recipe …
