Hi there!

We are but amateur cooks! Here, we document our sweet victories and sorry failures. We hope to grow and one day, be able to cook up a royal delish feast! To more storms in the kitchen! Cheers!

Embracing Tradition

It's Chinese New Year!! A time of tradition, visiting, feasting and gambling!!
Speaking of tradition, here's what Mum cooked when the gang came over to 'bai nian'!

Gyoza for starters. Beautiful, ay? The brown crispy side with the succulent meat inside.
Dip it in some vinegar with ginger and chilli padi soy sauce and hmmmmm so good!


And the main... drumroll please. We're hardly dramatic. This dish needs a drumroll!


"WHAT IS THAT?!" you might exclaim. Well, we have it on the first day of every Chinese New Year!
So here's introducing the 'Red Gravy Chicken' in direct translation from its hokkien name. Cook the gravy with chicken, eggs and ginger. Serve it with mee-suah and TA DA, a strange looking meal appears!


Not too sure if anyone somewhere out there, would wanna get their hands dirty on this one.
Do holler if you decide to get adventurous! :D

More on CNY the next time!
Love, Rach and Via
