I love, love, love noodles. Currently I have 8 kinds of noodles stocked at home – spaghetti, tagliatelle/fettuccine, rice noodles (hor fun), rice vermicelli (bee hoon), somen (thin Japanese noodle made of wheat flour), soba (Japanese buckwheat noodles), udon and egg noodles. This is not including the other pasta shapes that are sitting in the pantry! So… yup,…

Thai Glass Noodle Salad (Yum Woon Sen / ยำวุ้นเส้น)
I first made this Thai Glass Noodle Salad (or also known as yum woon sen in Thai) a few months back and I was so blown away by how delicious it was. The salad dressing is made with just three ingredients – lime juice, fish sauce and Thai sweet chilli, which is readily and greedily absorbed by the…
Potato Tuiles with Prawn Salsa
When I was Googling for potato recipes to try, I saw quite a few baked potato chips recipe, somehow that reminded me of tuiles and off I went searching for potato tuile recipes! There are a few that used instant mashed potato – something that I will never buy because I don’t like the taste…
THB #28: Greek Almond-Crusted Citrus Rolls
Christmas is just around the corner and I had just finished planning what I want to bake for the upcoming Christmas parties and giveaways! (Still left with the savoury meals though…) Hopefully I will remember to take photos of them and post on my Instagram! (Follow me @foodiebaker if you haven’t!) This bake was chosen…
Italian Almond Tart + Liebster Award
I’m hosting next month’s Aspiring Bakers event and the theme is Boozy-licious – just bake or cook anything with at least 1 tablespoon of alcohol (yes any kind of alochol!), blog about it, and submit your entry to me! Can’t wait to see what you all have cooked up! I really wish I have at…
Steak with Chimichurri (Curtis Stone)
Grilling steaks is not a favourite hobby of mine as high heat is needed – and when there’s high heat, there’d be lots of smoke and my house would always ended up smoky and oily! I’d have to mop the floor after the cooking, which is definitely not my favourite household chore. However, restaurant steaks…
Mango Salsa Chicken
I would love to bake desserts every week (in fact I would love to bake almost everyday), but the butter, sugar and the occasional chocolate are contributing to the disappearance of my waist (thankfully it’s still here). As I’m not in office most of the time, I can’t bring the baked goods to office and…
Hainanese Chicken Rice
I have finally mustered enough courage to make a full-fledged Hainanese Chicken Rice. This recipe has always been on my to-do list and I’ve researched high and low for recipes and tips in making a good chicken rice. The main pulling factors preventing me from cooking it is the thought of chopping up a whole…
Cold Abalone Slices with Sweet and Spicy Sauce + Awards
Fireworks that we saw from my grandparents’ house Happy Chinese New Year! I went back to my home town in Batu Pahat, Malaysia last Sunday and returned on Tuesday night. We only go back once or twice a year, so it’s good to see that all my relatives (especially my grandparents) are healthy and well….
Mango Sorbet
I received an ice cream machine for my birthday from X and I promised him that mango sorbet will be the first thing that I’ll make with the machine, because that is his favourite ice cream on Earth. And I finally did it… after one year later. Yup, you heard me right, one year later….
