Second trial of cooking this pretty thing. Yes, they're edible and pretty, but let me tell you snails are not for everyone. Some find it as a delicacy, while others may find this quite, well....... weird, I was going to say something else. But you know, the kind that they would serve in fear factor shows. As for me, I'm not a fussy eater, probably more of an exotic type eater, just out of

An interesting theme I definitely wouldn't want to miss. All this time I've been surfing inspiring sites drooling over their food photos, amazed at how the word "photography" has developed from something I barely understand into an art that I learn to appreciate - and later on learn to master As a newbie, my knowledge on the subject is still limited to a very basic thing - that the photo

Banana blossoms, although have no particular distinct flavour, may add an exotic touch to the salad or other vegetable dishes. Coming back home a few weeks ago, I had fun experimenting with various type of veggies available mostly in Asia like this banana blossoms - and papaya blossom (posted next). The distinct fragrance of banana blossom brings back childhood memories. Mom used to serve them

A lot of pleasant memories about this specific dish, satay pusut, chargrilled satay with a mild balinese spices. My sister, Mia, is crazy about it that she often bought them in bucketloads during the weekend from an old balinese lady at the corner of Sukawati market. We usually sat outside watching the evening sky or traffic while chewing this juicy stick bit by bit.Ingredients:* 250 gr shrimp -

One of my crazy cooking ideas - perhaps someone out there had experimented this but I've never seen it anywhere else before. I love bitter gourds. Although Michael morbidly hates them, I still cook them occasionally. He'd usually left them untouched, leaving a plateful for myself. Ha! The filling is actually what we use for "buntil" other type of dish made of shredded coconut mixed with baby

Not exactly the type sold in local florists. A quick google search found that it's actually originated from Japan, called "shungiku" or chrysanthemum greens. They use it as accompaniment to shabu-shabu or sukiyaki. Here in the mainland, they have it in hotpots. The flavours are just beautiful in hotpot.

The recipe has been modified from different sources, almost similar to chinese spring rolls fillings. Steamed sweet potato is added to the peanut sauce to thickens and give a not-so-skippy'ish flavour to the sauce. Which might have been the reason why my husband was always a bit hesitant trying savouries doused in peanut sauce. He probably thinks peanuts would only go in sandwiches.Ingredients:*

Rica-rica is originated from Menado in Indonesia, a place known for its best spicy dishes across the archipelago as mentioned in my previous posting here. Most of the dishes usually contain lemon grass, kaffir lime leaves and tonnes of chili peppers. I would say that it should measure somewhere between 100,000 to 225,000 in the Scoville Chart - practically the fourth hottest chilies on earth.

The sexiest dessert I've ever made - not that I've made many anyway, but still, this silky smooth warm bananas bathed in intoxicatingly sexy mixture of butter, brown sugar, cinnamon sprinkles and dark rum ... combined with vanilla ice cream. Whoooaa my gaawwd!!!Everything had to be done in a rush, cooking, flaming, taking photos especially when the warm bananas start to melt the ice cream :-( ...

Or also known as "Semur Lidah" . Also one of the dishes from my childhood. Having the sweet aroma of thick reddish gravy with a hint of nutmeg & worchester sauce, combined with the juicy melt-in-the mouth slices of beef tongue, surely brings back a lot of childhood's memory and that "homey" feeling. My grandma used to make this quite often....Ingredients:* 1 whole ox/beef tongue* 1 pcs large

Experimenting with abalone sauce this afternoon. With a bottle of abalone sauce bought from Beijing, and a fruitless search on google for recipes using abalone sauce.

This is our version of "Nasi Ulam" Betawi" or rice set menu Indonesian style. Although using the same toasted spiced coconut or serundeng, the condiments have been adjusted to the western's taste. Surprisingly both my husband & our friend loved this dish so much! I felt like those hours spent in the kitchen worthwhile.....SERUNDENG (toasted coconut topping)Ingredients:* 200 gr desiccated coconut

Para bapak disini - a.k.a Mike & David - anti pedes, apalagi masakan yang diselundupi rebon/ebi, pasti tetep ketahuan sama mereka. Hidungnya terlalu sensitif.

Cottage pie, also known as shepherd's pie, is a traditional English dish made with minced (ground) meat covered with mashed potato. The meat is typically beef or lamb left over from a Sunday roast. The term "shepherd's pie" tends to be used when the meat is lamb (from Wikipedia) Ingredients:* 600 gram minced beef/lamb* 4 pcs medium size potatoes* 1 cup sour cream/soft cheese* 1/2 cup grated

I was just rearranging the kitchen counter and found a bottle of charsiu marinade. Not really sure what it is for except for the usual "babi merah" in chinese resto, I googled for the recipe. Apparently charsiu is excellent for barbecue ribs marinade, and sometimes barbecue chicken. I felt like modifying the recipe slightly.Ingredients:* 2 large slabs of baby spare ribs* half bottle of charsiu

Kalio Ayam is a version of Chicken Curry Indonesian style, a typical dish from West Sumatra, an island famous for their bursting flavours of fragrant spices mixed in thick coconut gravy. This is the Land of the Curry for us, Indonesians. Most of the dishes are medium spicy, well... compared to those dishes from Menado, another island in Indonesia, which mostly are smothered in red serrano chilies

Hari pertama turun ke dapur lagi, setelah bed rest hampir seminggu penuh. Dari nyiapin bahan, nguleni adonan sampe menggoreng dilakukan sambil duduk, rasanya cape banget kalo berdiri kelamaan.

**Indonesian Lime Shrimp Sambal**I’m not too sure where this condiment originally comes from. As far as I remember from childhood, it’s one of the typical dishes often made by my father’s side of family, the West Sumatrans, along with other condiments, sambal tempoyak. Altough on Google search I couldn’t find anything except all listings from malaysian sites.Yang jelas rasanya nendang abis……

**Indonesian Green Chili Fried Rice**Ide sebenernya terinspirasi dari masakan nyokap, ikan sepat cabai hijau. Kalo pas nyokap masak ini, kita jarang banget nggak nambah.
