Print PDF A no-fuss beef rendang recipe for the busy, modern cook. If you use pre-minced lemongrass and garlic like I do, you don’t even need to pull out your food processor or mortar and pestle. (A lot of my recipes are like that – I cook in commercial quantities for my business so I…
Print PDF Have you ever visited Malaysia? Thought about it, maybe? I’ve talked to lots of Aussies at my food stalls over the years. (Contrary to perception I am occasionally approachable. It has been known to happen.) More than a handful have been to Malaysia. They were there because of work. Or they were transiting…
Print PDF Find out in my 9-minute video below 😉 Just to put some context into this, I spent minutes trawling through my pantry for ingredients I had on hand, I didn’t spend months writing a thesis, interviewing experts, drawing up definitive lists or stocking up for this video. In other words, if I missed your…
Print PDF I’m playing around with embedded social media posts. This is one from my Google+ page. Which is a link to a Yahoo.com publication of my recipe. Then I’ll probably share this out again across my social media platforms. It’s like an Internet Russian Doll.
Print PDF I’ve had at least 2 people tell me they’ve been enjoying my travel posts – 3 if you count #babyNoah (alright, he didn’t actually say it but I could tell) – and this has been enough to spur me into action. I plan on compiling them from now on as video content for…
Print PDF Kapitan Chicken Curry is one of the more popular dishes in my range of frozen Prepared Meals, but as anyone who’s watched any of the cooking videos on my YouTube Channel would know, I’m a big believer in shortcuts; I’m the first to admit a lot of liberties are taken with my recipes….
Print PDF Most Westerners who’ve travelled to Malaysia will almost invariably have covered Penang, so they’re often surprised to find they know the place better than I do. I have to admit being a “southerner” – I was born and raised in Seremban, 40 miles south of Kuala Lumpur – Penang has always been a…
Print PDF I’m almost scared to announce this for fear of jinxing these Live Broadcasts but here it goes! After a 3 months+ enforced hiatus from my weekly Google Hangouts-On-Air thanks to my relocation nightmare that included a failed internet service restore, I’m back in the game with a vengeance. I’m running a series of…
Print PDF They say necessity is the mother of invention and that’s kind of how “Breakfast Roti” – one of the signature menu items at my markets, came about. For the uninitiated, it consists of Roti Canai (Malaysian flaky pancake) served with Kaya (Pandan and Coconut Jam). Fun fact – “Breakfast Roti” ie. “Roti Canai…
Print PDF As a cook/ex-restaurateur who’s copped my fair share of bad write-ups, I’m naturally predisposed to eyeing food reviewers with a healthy (some would argue unhealthy) dose of cynicism. Don’t tell anyone, but I secretly rate them on a scale from – “mildly annoying” to, well, – “food blogger” 😉 With that kind of…
