Spanish Chicken Stew

Recently I made a chicken stew spanish style. I was reading some recipe somewhere which I honestly cannot remember at the moment. It is easy and I think the longer you let it cook, the better the taste going to be. Here is the recipe. Hope you will like it.

Chicken in Peanut Sauce from Ayara Thai

This is a long overdue post. Few months ago my friend sent me this awesome peanut sauce from Ayara Thai. I made this chicken with peanut sauce and surprisingly it turned out pretty well. Hope you will like it.

Nasi Lemak (Coconut Milk Rice)

Nasi Lemak can be considered a National dish of Malaysia. I cannot think any Malaysian that doesn't like or love this dish. This dish is simply delicious. I introduced this dish to my husband 3 years ago and he loved it. Since then, he consistently request me to make it for him. Few weeks ago, he requested this dish and I finally record the ingredients that needed for this dish.

Curry Chicken

Ever since living in US, there are tones of food that I want to make but unable to do because i) I don't know how ii) It is complicated and iii) It's expensive to make it from scratch. I really regret for not learning wonderful recipes from my grandma especially Curry Chicken ( one of my many favourites). I am glad that I found Tean's Gourmet Curry Chicken mix. A pack cost me $2.79 and all I need is a few more ingredients and viola! I will have a wonderful bowl and delicious curry chicken that taste very close to the ones my grandma used to make for me at home.

Since I try to eat slightly healthy, I opted to use skinless chicken breast instead of chicken drumsticks or wings with skin. You can choose your choice of meat.

Chinese Creamy Corn Soup

One of my Chinese Take Out favourite is Chinese Creamy Corn Soup. As you know by now, I used to worked in one of the chinese take out in Upstate NY. I saw the chef make this a few times and now I finally trying to make it on my own.  I think this dish is good during cold season or when we are sick. It is easy and I hope you will enjoy this dish.

Pad Thai

Recently I received a wonderful gift from a very dear friend - Bchoo from Gourmand Simple's Pleasure. One of the item in the package that was sent to me is this Pad Thai Sauce from Ayara Thai Cuisine.

So, today I finally use this wonderful sauce to make a classic Thai dish - Pad Thai. It was simple and easy. Ayara does make good sauce. I do not need to add in any other sauces when I make this dish. The best part is, their sauce are made fresh daily in their kitchen. You can read more on how to purchase the sauce here.  Hope you enjoy it.

Chai Buey (Mustard Green Stew/Soup)

Chai Buey literally means leftover in Hokkien. I love this dish so much that i can literally eat the whole big pot all by myself. No matter how much calories i consumed in that week or how much i put on weight, if my grandma were to make this dish, i will finish up the whole pot even it means my tummy is so full until i cant even walk. I guess i look forward to this dish more than any dish during chinese new year :p

The good thing about this dish is you pretty much cook whatever you can find in your refrigerator and add in a few fresh ingredients and i guarantee you that you will ask for more. You can also make this dish from fresh. So i would suggest, during thanksgiving or christmas and you have lots of leftover, you can try to make this dish.

Belacan Fried Chicken

One of my favourite-to-order dish when i dined out in KL was Belacan Fried Chicken. Another dish that i love. I love the smell, the taste, the crunch and everything about it. When i managed to grabbed a block of Belacan from the Asian Market, i make sure i filled my whole apartment with belacan aroma! (poor my American hubby) So here is the simple recipe for Belacan Fried Chicken. Enjoy!
