Salmon and chorizo always stand out in my food dictionary. Salmon is well known for its health benefits such as omega-3, protein and amino acid while chorizo may not be as famous for its health benefits it still contain some protein, selenium, Zinc and B-12. Serve this with spaghetti aglio e olio (garlic and olive oil) and blanched asparagus or perhaps sweet potato mashed or pumpkin mashed.

After my recent visit to Bali I often find myself missing the taste of Southeast Asia. Especially their fresh, light, tangy, chilli soup. So today I am making this soup to ease my crave.

Black fungus may

Just a little bit of patience in kneading.

I was browsing through the Urbanspoon when I stumbled across Little Hunter. Upon reading at the various comments and blogs about Little Hunter, I've decided to give it a try. The menu listed on the webpage sounds interesting too. Little Hunter is located short walk away from the Little Collins St and Russell Street intersection. I find it a bit hard to spot because the little stairway that

When I brother came a few weeks ago, he asked me what do I want from the duty free place. So I said I want Baileys. Baileys + Ice Cream = Fantastic. However,this morning I was craving for cakes. Any cakes. So, I decided to try baking Baileys cake. Then, I went to the kitchen scrape whatever cake baking ingredient I have in the pantry and to my delight I manage to scrape enough ingredient to bake

So, I have to say I really like the scotch eggs. I am an egg lovers, anything got to do with eggs gets my vote. I wouldn't categorise this recipe as hard/difficult. It may be a bit tedious but no way this recipe will fail you. Another thing that I like about this recipe is the fresh white breadcrumbs used. It is so crispy and oil free. In short this is a simple delicious meal with some everyday

I have never make my own breadcrumbs before and I have no idea how to make them. However when I was about to make the Scotch Eggs I realised I was short of breadcrumbs and I was too lazy to go out to get breadcrumbs. Luckily, I did have a loaf of white bread at that time and I decided to google if I could find something. To my delight, wikiHow have an article of 'How to make fresh breadcrumbs'.
