Most people are familiar with Vietnamese Beef Pho, but what’s less well-known is that we similarly grew up with our own version of beef noodle soup back in Malaysia. I sort of split the difference in this broadcast where I retained the use of hearty chunks of beef brisket found in the Malaysian version, but…
New York Cheesecake sounds positively un-Asian, but I was intrigued by one that was apparently made in a pressure cooker by SoyBeanJenny from my Twitch community. She posted the picture and recipe link – https://www.pressurecookrecipes.com/instant-pot-cheesecake-new-york/ – on my Discord server, and assured me it was super-easy to make. It’d have to be, since I’m a…
Well, some light relief after all that #TelstraFail saga; this was the Battle of the Bots episode. If you engage with me on the Chat at Twitch, you might have noticed a third party bot (ie. automated software) called RevloBot that intermittently posts links for people to check out how many points they have acquired…
Before this “high priestess of Malaysian cuisine” gig, I was a Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer, Cisco Certified Network Administrator and a Certified Novell (“que?” – ask the millennials) Administrator. So far, the cause of the mid-stream dropout during my last broadcast could be any one of the following – faulty modem, faulty sim card, or…
Congratulations to everyone who rallied to help Wyatt’s family cover his medical expenses; I am touched beyond measure by your show of generosity. My original target was $500; we’ve managed to raise AUD$1405.89 through book sales and personal donations (after processing fees and postage costs), AND separately raised USD$545.00 on Wyatt’s GoFundMe page which his…

This was my second time using my new Optimum Induction Pressure-Cook Pro, and I wanted to see if it would allow me to skip the “soak for 8 hours before use” step that usually comes with sticky rice recipes. I cooked the sticky rice by adding a bit more water than you would for white…
The wonderful folks at Prestige Home Appliances have stepped up to the plate and are offering an Optimum Induction Pressure-Cook Pro as a Giveaway to one lucky person who donated towards Wyatt’s cause. (If you missed my previous email, here’s the story >> bit.ly/helpwyatt ). The Induction Pressure-Cook Pro is a multi-function cooker and is…
This is one of the most popular dishes from my Concord restaurant days, and it’s the first time I’ve divulged the recipe. Which, by the way, is my stepmom’s, so full credit to her. There’s a lot of “agak-agak” – ie. “guesstimating” – in this dish. Different brands of soya sauce, oyster sauce etc. etc….
