Whenever I’m in the mall, my biggest weakness is to see home appliances and accessories.  In one of those shopping trips, I was able to buy ice candy molds.  They’re cute and I couldn’t wait to try them out.  I searched around the web for an easy ice drop recipe.

The only thing I needed to do is to mix all the ingredients, put them in the mold, freeze them overnight and then, I can already enjoy my very own ice drop!  The best thing about this recipe and why I chose this among all the other similar recipes is that the main ingredient is corn.  Corn is one of my ultimate favourites.  Being able to try out corn in a different way is cool!

I’ve been wanting to learn how to cook for a very long time.  Now that I finally have a place and tools to fulfill that goal, it’s becoming a reality.  I totally have no experience in preparing food thus I started with very very simple recipes.  I hope to improve as I continue with this journey.

I should be veering away from tofu considering the food poisoning incident that happened to me a few months ago.  But what the heck, I learned that if we get tofu, we should consume it within 3 weeks.  Now, I made sure I followed that rule.  I never ever wanted to remove tofu in my diet because it is extremely delicious!

While I was searching for recipes online, the thing that I was looking for was the ease of cooking the dish.  Steamy Chicken posted a recipe with a video on how to prepare Chinese braised tofu with ground pork.  I had to watch the video several times, but the recipe was really easy to follow.  So there, I tried making my own version 🙂 Read More

I truly enjoyed the Pinoy-style spaghetti recipe that I tried out last month.  This time around, being Chinese, I have to try out our own version.  I’m starting to prepare a lot of pasta dishes but I guess, this is a stage in my cooking journey.  After a short while, I would divert my attention to rice dishes 😛

I have to apologize in advance because I made a mistake while cooking the dish.  I poured the whole 1 cup chicken stock not knowing that I should have just poured a quarter of it.  After realizing such mistake, I had to improvise and add a lil more of the other ingredients to get the right taste.  So if you noticed in some photos wherein the sauce is a bit liquid, that is because of my mistake.  Please follow the recipe wherein 1/4 cup of the stock is needed.

I super love french fries.  Whenever I feel so stressed or if I feel sad, I would go to McDonald’s and get myself a large fries.  I must admit that the price is expensive for me to order it everyday.

One day, I was walking around the mall and saw the air fryer.  The appliance store was marketing it as a healthy alternative to cooking fries.  Would you believe that we don’t need to dip the fries in oil anymore?  How cool is that?  I immediately thought that I do not need to feel guilty anymore when eating plus I don’t have to go through with all the grease when cleaning the dishes & pans. So yeah, I bought the air fryer.  The first dish that I cooked up using the Air Fryer is Spicy Country fries.  It was actually the first recipe in the air fryer recipe book. Read More
