Ieat’s Chinese Roast Pork, Siu Yuk, Sio Bak Recipe II

I managed to pick up a few more tips in the last 3 years and have updated the recipe for a juicier, more flavourful sio bak! It's one of those things that is really worth doing at home as it is relatively easy and you are sure to get a few "wows" and "oohs" which is really satisfying!

Singapore Style Fried Hokkien Mee Recipe

Hokkien mee is one of my all time favourite hawker dishes. It is also a dish that is unique to Singapore. There are many theories as to the origins of the dish, but what is undisputed is that you can't find this style of Hokkien mee in our neighbouring countries, unlike char kway teow where many variations can be found across Malaysia.

Ayam Buah Keluak Recipe

Ayam buah keluak is perhaps the most important recipe for me. This dish makes its appearance every Chinese New Year and if I get it right, it means that the rest of the year is going to be prosperous and smooth sailing. Get it wrong, and dark ominous clouds start forming in the horizon!

Soya Sauce Chicken Recipe: Cantonese Chefs’ recipe

Soy sauce chicken was somewhat on the B list of famous hawker dishes until it shot to fame when Chef Chan won a Michelin Star for Hong Kong Soya Sauce chicken in 2016. Since then, I had wanted to write a recipe for soya sauce chicken. Unlike Hokkien mee or char kway teow which requires a big wok and a hot stove, a dish like soya sauce chicken can be easily done at home!

Leslie’s Simplest Butter Cake Recipe

Here is something that happens in our family every year. We would be celebrating my mother-in-law's birthday and no matter what trendy birthday cake we buy for her, she would always end up saying that butter cake is still her favourite. And every year I would promise to bake her a butter cake next time! Year after year, that "next time" never happened until Anchor sent me a few blocks of their New Zealand butter to sample!

Pandan Gula Melaka Cake: Pandan Chiffon Cake Revisited

Seven years on, I thought I would revisit the Pandan Chiffon cake again. One reason for this is that earlier this year, CNN named the Pandan Chiffon cake as one of the 17 best cakes in the world and crowned it the national cake of Singapore! Another reason is that I tasted a really nice gula melaka version of the Pandan Chiffon cake at Cheng's @27 which was more moist and tender than my version and I had always wanted to tweak my recipe to improve it.

Thai Style Prawn Cakes with Huai Shan

Thod man goong or Thai prawn cakes are one of my wife’s favourite dishes whenever we go to a Thai restaurant. They are quite easy to make and when you make them yourselves you can be assured that of good quality prawn meat without a lot of fillers. These prawn cakes are not cheap to make! I bought 1 kg of sua lor prawns for the market for $16 and I made only six prawn cakes out of them!
