Made this pumpkin and chicken soup. Good for healthy diet ppl. If you think there's too much oil, you can use a kind of absorbent paper which can be bought from daiso. Will upload the pics soon. This soup is very easy to cook.

If you are cooking for the whole family, use half a chicken and half pumpkin. Peel the pumpkin skin with a peeler, if you are a expert at peeling you can also use a knife but really careful cuz the skin is super hard. Normally i would cook the pumpkin first to let it soften and throw in the chicken. Add salt for seasoning. Cuz pumpkin is sweet so you might have to add quite an amount of salt. I dun recommend to use soy sauce cuz the soya bean taste would be very heavy and will taste weird with pumpkin. Let it boil in medium fire for around 2 hours and you're done.

Next is the rolled omelette, i intro-ed this in my previous post, and this is just to let you see how the omelette will look like inside if it's rolled up. You can find videos on how to make japanese rolled omelette on YouTube. They add mirin, dashi and soy sauce. This will make the egg taste sweeter cuz mirin is sweet sake.

Enjoy!!

Made salad again today, but replaced the chesdale cheese with fetta cheese.

This cheese can be bought in ntuc, cost abt 5 bucks. I bought the reduced fat version, there's also a original version of the cheese. Or if you want to use a better grade of fetta can go Carrefour. They have a station there that sells all kinds of cheeses, hams and olives. Diced the cheese and put into your salad. Dun add too much of this cheese cuz it has a heavy taste when added just a bit. if you are very lazy to do the seasoning yourself, they also sell ready-to-mix seasoning. They got 2 types, fetta cheese with olives oil & spices and fetta cheese with olive oil & herbs.

Cooked rolled cheese omelette yesterday for snack. Taste so nice, you can also see the spiral pattern of the egg, but i din take a pic of eat cuz i was hungry. LOL!! Look at the melted cheese, make me drool again.

If you dunno how to roll up the omelette, you can just cook a round shape.

Ingredients

-2 eggs

-Cheese (any type)

I used 2 eggs, beat them up, add a pinch of salt. Pour half of the beaten eggs into pan first. Let it stay there until halfcooked (still can see liquid on egg). Add cheese (kraft cheese/mozarella or whatever cheese you like). Take out from pan immediately. Pour the rest of the beaten eggs into the pan (leave abt 2 tbsp of egg mixture), let fry until halfcook again. Take the first omelette (with cheese) and put on top of the omelette, make sure that the cheese have to be in the middle of the egg. You will see that the sides of the omelette doesn't stick. This is where the 2 tbsp of egg comes in, use it like a glue, dap egg mixture along the sides of the eggs and press. This will let the 2 omelettes stick together. Cook until both sides are golden brown, this also makes sure that the middle of the eggs are hot enough to melt the cheese.

Eat it with ketchup or chilli or by itself.

Enjoy!!!!

Next up will be black pepper pork strips recipe.

Baked all these on sat. Very healthy. One table spoon of oil for all.

Potatoes are baked with white onions. Mixed it with some Italian herbs and garlic salt. Yums!!!

Minced meat patties. Added some sesame oil, water chestnut, fresh mushrooms, carrots, corn flour and soy sauce. Delicious!!!

And i love the prawns!! Put some garlic salt on the prawns and smells heavenly. Too bad i dun have any cheese. look at how fresh the prawns are!!! OMG!!! Makes me drool again.

Off to get my beauty sleep. Been feeling so tired even though i'm jobless. Someone introduce me some decent jobs!!!

Steamed this cabbage wrap for dinner just now. First time try, not bad though. No oil, no pork smell, the taste very light also. The gravy i used here are the ones after steaming the wraps.

The fillings in the cabbage are minced pork, preferably lean minced meat if for healthier choice. I mixed some tofu (水豆腐) and finely chopped carrot and mushrooms in there for texture. So the pork wont taste so siap siap if you know what i mean. Adding the tofu changes the pork texture to a smoother 口感. Mushrooms and carrot are to own choice though. Can add chopped water chestnut in there for crunchy feel. But too bad i dun have chestnut today. Actually the filling is a bit like our house making hakka yong tau foo. Just that we add more things other than those mentioned.

OK, detailed ingredients down here.

What you need:

- Cabbage

Fillings:

- minced pork/ chicken (i always use aga-ration for ingredients. Go with your feel.)

- tofu (those in a box one with water inside)

- carrots, chop finely *to your choice*

- fresh mushrooms (not dried ones), chop finely *to your choice*

- water chestnuts, chop finely *to your choice*

Note: you can use onions, celery or whatever ingredients you can think of to put in there. You can also choose not to put anything, just plain minced meat and tofu. But if there's still leftover cabbage after tearing up to the amount you want, chopped it and mix with the fillings. Dun waste.

Method:

- 1:1 ratio of minced meat and tofu. mixed everything together well.

- Add those other veggies that are chopped in, mix well.

- Season it with some light soy sauce. Or you can choose to add these in the gravy after steaming.

- Tear some cabbage. Leave it in one full piece and not in small pieces.

- Get 2 to 3 spoonfuls of well mixed meat and put in the cabbage.

- Roll the cabbage like popiah and put in plate. Do so for all.

- Finish rolling, put the whole plate into steamer. Wait patiently for 20 mins or so to make sure that the meat are fully-cooked.

(you can also slice those extra fresh shrooms and put over the wraps and steam it together)

For nice presentation,

- Separate the gravy and mushrooms from the wraps

- Cook the gravy till boil, add some corn starch and just go over the wraps.

Or want watery watery gravy also can, after steaming just take out and it's edible. , i do recommend to mix some corn starch in, it's more appetizing

That's about how i made this dish. More to come i hope. Try it if you want some light dinner dish or trying out new recipes. Any questions, you can email me. My email address is at the sidebar.

Enjoy!!
