| collectible books
to me are books on handcraft and lifestyle

One of my fave embroidery book by @menti_embroidery

I get inspired a lot by browsing through books with pretty and cute things like this

Do you collect beautiful books too?

| ONE pot TWO meals
when you cannot cook portion for two

Some dishes just require more than 2 portions and it does not only taste better when you have more ingredients in the pot, it also saves cost and time cos you can just freeze it and heat it up again to serve for the next meal

So, we had this Malaysian curry chicken with potatoes for lunch yesterday which is a portion for 5 and I’ve freeze them up to go with Roti prata for the coming days 🤣

Mixed vegetables were portion for 3 and we had that for dinner on the very same day 🙃

| Creamy Mushroom Udon
topped with scallops 😋

This is a dish inspired by one of my most unforgettable Creamy Udon meal I had in Japan when I was studying abroad there

I’m using the same creamy recipe from my previous post, and instead of bacon and spaghetti I swapped it with scallop and udon!

| Something NEW
for lunch today

Yassss! The pot is new, so is the lunch menu — 𝘔𝘶𝘴𝘩𝘳𝘰𝘰𝘮 𝘳𝘪𝘴𝘰𝘵𝘵𝘰

Another attempt on risotto after 3 years and this time it’s definitely better than before

If you’re interested to give this a try, it’s a recipe by 「Tasty101」on YouTube :)

| Self-making bed
that only appears in my dream

I wish I could wake up and go with a self-making bed every morning

Though in reality smart duvet self-making bed does exist but it only makes the duvet

If only pillows can be self-fluffed and move back in position like these bunch of mischievous pillows here, that would be perfect 😆

Just kidding!!! Conversely, it will be too scary to see pillows running around 😱

Anyways, I hope you enjoyed it ☺️

| Curry Beef Udon
that tasted like A&W’s coney dog

An effortless meal that takes less than 30 minutes from preparing to cooking — everything goes into the pan and then to the table

I guess I’ve been into cooking simple and quick meals like this for lunch these days cos tbh I’ve started to run out of idea 😆

<2 𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴>
What you need:
• 200g minced beef
• 1/2 onion (diced)
• 1 clove garlic (minced)
• 1/2 carrot (julienned)
• 1 tbsp sake
• 350mL water
• 2 cubes curry roux
• 2 packs of udon
* I’m using Vermont Curry (Hot) here

How to make:
1. Heat oil in a pan and cook onion for 3 minutes or until soft.
2. Then add in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute.
3. Next, add in the minced beef and cook until brown, then add in sake and cook for 1 minute.
4. Add in carrot and stir fry for 1 minute, then add in water and simmer at medium low heat for 10 minutes.
5. While waiting, prepare udon according to package instruction.
6. After 10 minutes, turn off heat and add in the curry roux and stir well until completely dissolved, then turn back on heat and cook for another 3 minutes before transferring udon into the pan to serve.

| What’s cooking in the kitchen?
Stir fried eggplant and long beans in Chinese style, Korean style meatball and miso soup

Meals like this may seem simple but it definitely has the taste of what we call HOME 🧡

Trying out the Korean style meatball by @hikoreantable for the first time and I would say it’s full of flavour with lots of goodness ingredients! Give it a try if you’re looking for something new to cook ☺️ as you will sure to love it!
