![Pasta Aglio e Olio with Sun-Dried Tomatoes [Single-Serving]](https://www.foodiebaker.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/DSC06070-320x320.jpg)
I received some dry-packed sun-dried tomatoes as a gift when my friend went for a holiday in Greece recently (thanks!) A quick Google shows that they are usually used in pastas and salads etc. So I made a very simple aglio e olio so that the intense flavours of the sun-dried tomatoes can shine.

Spaghetti Aglio e Olio with Prawns/Shrimps
There are just some classic dishes that I’ll never get sick off, and one of them is spaghetti aglio e olio. Spaghetti aglio e olio, which means “spaghetti with garlic and oil” in Italian, is a traditional Italian pasta dish originating from Napoli, made by sautéeing minced garlic in olive oil with dried red chili flakes…
Seafood Pasta al Cartoccio (Seafood Pasta in Parchment Parcels)
Seafood pasta makes frequent appearance on our dining table because seafood cooks fast and they are really satisfying (in terms of look and in terms of belly-happiness). I’ve shared a creamy velouté and a simple and garlicky aglio olio on the blog before, so this time round I’m back with a tomato-based seafood pasta al cartoccio, inspired by one of favourite bloggers who share plenty…
Easy 4-Ingredient Tomato Sauce for Pasta
I’ve been making this tomato sauce for pasta many, many times ever since I stumbled upon it on Smitten Kitchen’s blog – it’s incredibly easy as it’s a dump-everything-in-one-pot kind of sauce and uses only 4 ingredients (Smitten Kitchen uses 3 but I added an additional ingredient just because I think it makes it better!)
Umami Pasta (Cherry Tomatoes, Mushrooms, Tuna, Basil & Parmesan)
Grocery shopping has been real fun here, because besides Asian produce that are expensive (such as ginger, beansprouts, shallots, lemongrass etc.), a lot of the other produce are cheaper, fresher and/or tastier then those I have tasted in Singapore. Cherry tomatoes are 90% of the time, sweet and juicy and cost only SGD 2 per kilo; white/brown button mushrooms and…

Spaghetti with Seafood Velouté (Gordon Ramsay)
Gordon Ramsay is a popular celebrity chef who hosts many variety shows. I can’t say I’m an avid fan of his, considering the huge amount of swearing in his shows – I can’t decide if he meant what he said or he had to for show-effects. But even so, I have collected quite a few…
