Macanese curried prawns with okra plated

Possibly the Oldest Fusion Cusine in the World.

5-2 diet vegetable and shirataki noodle stirfry with unearthed prawns

5-2 Diet Tips – Eat Well and Cook Less? OK, a guilty little secret about me and the 5-2 fast diet.  I enjoy cooking on 5-2 diet fast days.  Maybe a masochistic tendency, maybe just  wanting to keep busy.  But like everyone there are days when I simply don’t have time to make home-made soups.  […]

Ten Minute Suppers: I have a passion for real food.  While there are some dishes which DO take time, there are also some real easy win things I make for myself when I don’t want to spend hours in the kitchen.  They don’t involve opening a ready meal box though I do have my own […]

kei-lum chan-diora-fong-chan-china-the-cookbook

A Comprehensive and Fascinating Guide to Chinese Home Cuisine – China: The Cookbook I am the sort of cook who tends not to follow recipes.   That’s not to say I don’t enjoy reading recipe books, I do.  But, for the most part, I improvise a lot (with varying degrees of success).  My own recipe […]
