A Great Bowl of Soup

Sometimes, after all the heavy meals, a bowl of soup comes in time for a light dinner :) In this soup: chicken broth, potatos, onions, mushrooms, assorted vegetables, and a little bit of curry powder and coconut milk.

Steamed Catfish

Here is my steamed catfish with black bean garlic sauce. A word about black bean garlic sauce is that it is often used with seafood, pork, and chichen, but not usually with beef.

Ha! Another lunchbox is hence made :) !

Ma and Pop Stir Fry

No secret, just a simple stir-fry of whatever in my refrigerator :).

Chinese Style Baked Chicken

This is a homemade dish that you won't usually find in Chinese resturants. It is a chicken dish cooked with dried mushrooms, dried lily buds, and dried "cloud ear" mushrooms. The chicken was first seasoned with typical seasoning such as soy sauce, salt, sugar, cooking wine (and perhaps sometimes osyter sauce). It is then mixed with other ingredents and is steamed in high heat. However, you can also put it in an oven preheated as 450 F, and then baked at 350 F until cooked. It has an excellent unique taste.

This dish is usually served with rice, but of course, you can pretty much served it with anything you like :)

Want fish?

Why not!


It is easy to fix, healthy, and with great taste :) !

Slow Roast of the Day

Slow roasted beef is one of our favourites. The slow roasting method makes the beef both tender and moist. Preheat oven to 450 F and then rub salt and pepper on the beef. Roast the beef at 200 F. Cook until the internal temperature of the beef reaches between 150-160 degree.
I love to put the sliced beef in noodle soup, sandwiches, and best of all it can be served with rice with Korean style beef sauce dipping. The sauce can be prepared with sugar, soy sauce, cooking wine, red pepper, and green onions.
