Blueberry Cupcakes
Adding some blueberries to my standard butter cake recipe has turned my ordinary cupcakes into an extra special treat.
Seafood Stir-fry with Garlic and Sambal Chilli
One very convenient way to have a quick and nutritious meal is to purchase a mixed seafood pack from the local farmers' market.
Red Bean Dessert Soup (紅豆水)
This dessert is one of my hubby's favourites. He likes it so much that he has learnt to make his own red bean dessert soup and I have to admit his simple recipe is excellent.
Pan-fried T-Bone Steak with Black Pepper Gravy
Pan-fried T-bone steak with Black pepper sauce. The T-bone is a steak of beef that includes a "T-shaped" bone with 2 cuts of meat - "sirloin' on one side and "fillet" on the other.
Ipoh Rice Noodles (怡保河粉)
Ipoh Hor Fun (Ipoh Rice Noodles) - I have experimented with making the gravy and am pretty happy with the result.

Chilli Prawn and Sun-dried Tomato Pasta
One of the simplest dishes to make is pasta. Add fresh prawns and toss with chilli, tomatoes, garlic, basil and cream, and viola! a delicious flavoursome meal.
Home-made Pork Sausage in Tomato Gravy

Satay - Everybody's Favourite
Satay is everybody's favourite as the aroma of grilled spicy meat coupled with a delicious spicy peanut sauce creates a mouthwatering experience that's truly irresistible.
Creamy Chicken Soup
I prefer to make my own creamy soup - it tastes better and more nutritious as I can control the amount of salt and fat (no cream) that goes into the soup.
Teriyaki Chicken
He likes the mix of crispy skin and tender flavoursome meat in the sweet and savoury sauce.
Smoked Salmon & Scrambled Eggs
There is nothing better for breakfast than smoked salmon & scrambled eggs. It is nutritious, delicious and easy to cook. .

Wontons are usually served in soup or over a bed of dried noodles with sauce.
Crunchy Slaw Salad
I find this salad refreshing, nutty and crunchy and really quite tasty.
Hyderabadi Goat BIRyani
I like the fragrance and spiciness of Biryani. Don't be discouraged by the number of ingredients required. The steps are really quite simple.
Spicy Goat Sausage Roll
Inspired by the Goat Pie Guy who sells Goat pies in the farmers' market in the Brisbane CBD each Wednesday, I decided to make some Goat sausage rolls - the spicy variety.
