A table for two

Day 14. Hello Perth! I am actually currently in Perth, cooking at COLES in Park Centre until Sunday. It has been a hit yesterday, Peter and I cooked up a storm, a total of 10 dishes to feed everyone who came to see us! Not to mention the Coca-cola chicken, you have to come to [...]

Day 13. Whoever watched MasterChef Australia season 3 would have seen me making my very first Bombe Alaska during the pressure test. I obviously enjoyed the challenge a little too much and started deviating from the original Bombe Alaska that we were shown before the challenge. I actually didn’t even think that it could be [...]

Day 12. Easy Peasy, Berry Fizzy. Have to keep reminding myself, take picture first before blasting the jelly off into the air! This particular is so soft that the tip snapped off right after I finished filming the boombox test, and I didn’t even get a chance to take a proper shot of the jelly! [...]

Day 11.  Rainbow Pride. Can you believe it, I’ve made 1/3 of all the 30 jellies and still surviving? GO ME! This Royal Selangor 30-day ‘Get your jelly on’ Challenge has definitely tested my patience, endurance and perseverance. But hey, anything for a good cause, especially raising awareness about breast cancer. So ladies, have you [...]

Rock your socks off! The kids on Junior MasterChef finally had to face their first taste test, and it was a big chunk of Rocky Road! I could just see how much fun it would be gnawing down the big chunk of chocolate trying to find 20 ingredients hidden inside. It brings back a lot [...]

Day 10. Life has been hectic. While juggling between jellies the Royal Selangor 30-day ‘Get your jelly on’ challenge, I also spent the whole weekend cooking up a storm at MasterChef Live and Malaysia Festival. I had a fantastic time meeting so many people who came up to say hi and still a little surreal [...]

Day 7. Guess who’s birthday it is today? Most people I’ve shown the Royal Selangor Nick Munro jelly mould to will immediately associated with Madonna. (I wonder why?) And when I asked The Pom for jelly ideas, he had a play with them and naturally cupped them on his chest. ~*palmed face*~ Besides, this 30-day [...]

Day 3. I see red, I see red, I see red. There are already some really good jellies by all the bloggers who take part in the Royal Selangor 30-day ‘Get your jelly on’ challenge! Go and check them out! I know the Breast Cancer Awareness Month is all about pink colour, but pink is simply [...]

Day 1. My very first jelly for the Royal Selangor 30-day ‘Get your jelly on’ Challenge is up! When I received the Nick Munro jelly mould a week ago, I seriously didn’t know what to do with them and time was running out. I had a play with them and made a few jellies but [...]

Smooth Offal-ator…. Helen showed up at our Christmas in July last year and won the crowd with her ultra smooth chicken liver parfait. She kindly left me a small jar of the liver parfait and not surprisingly it was gone within days. So this year, I’ve decided to make my own chicken liver parfait and [...]

Only 10 minutes to go… It is my turn to plate up the dessert, I instantly knew I was in trouble. My chocolate delice in the fridge had not set yet! Peter looked at me, he wasn’t happy! (Cue that heavy background violin shriek with a heavy thump at the end and follow by the [...]

Hearty stew beats the winter chill. Finally a little bit of sunshine in Sydney, the weather last week was absolutely dreadful. It was so wet that even my dog, Amelie, didn’t want to go outside for a walk and get her tail wet. Also, in this kind of weather, all I could think of is [...]

Have a cupcake. I’ve baked many cupcakes before but funny enough, this is the first time I blog about making cupcakes. Don’t get me wrong, I do love cupcakes, but I simply don’t bake them often enough. Every time I pick up my kitchen mixer or dessert cookbooks, I always end up choosing something a [...]

This used to be my playground. This used to be my playground This used to be my childhood dream This used to be the place I ran to Whenever I was in need of a friend Why did it have to end And why do they always say Don’t look back, keep your head held [...]
