Posted: Tuesday, August 29th, 2006 @ 8:56 am in Fish Recipes | No Comments »

This is a little unusual as salted fish is used.  However it is no less delicious, and gives fish curry a little twist from the usual.  Best eaten with white rice.
Ingredients:  300g dried salted fish fillets; 500ml water; 250g grated coconut; 240g peeled & cubed unripe mango, from 4 small mangoes; 2 tbsp oil; 1-1/2 […]

Awesome Seabass Fish Recipe

I have tried this recipe before and it’s as good as the one being served at the restaurant. This is another Asian recipe, which I believe originates from Malaysia, in Malay it’s called Siakap Tiga Rasa (literally Seabass Three Tastes).  Should have a wide appeal because it’s deliciously sourish, sweetish and spicy.  This could almost be a […]

Satay or Spicey Barbequed Meat

Posted: Monday, August 7th, 2006 @ 4:11 pm in Recipes | 4 Comments »

Nobody really cooks this at home!  At least not in this part of the world, because at every other street, there’s always a satay stall.  In Singapore (and Malaysia), you cannot miss the smell of these barbecued meats on sticks and the smoke that fills up the sidewalks.  In the west where bbq is a favourite social activity, […]

Chicken Rice Recipe

The Chinese makes up more than 75% of Singapore population, and thanks to them, we have inherited some great recipes which came down from China.
