Ma Po Tofu »
This is one of my love-at -first- try recipes. I was looking for some tokwa ( it’s how we call tofu in Filipino) recipes to try and found out about Ma Po tofu. I have browsed through many recipes and the one below is what appealed to me. It’s fairly easy and the result is of [...]
Caldereta »
This beef stew is really delicious and worth your time trying..I don’t cook or eat beef often but when I do, I like to cook beef caldereta, it has become my favorite beef dish especially since I learned how to make it myself. I used to get to eat this only when my mother-in- law [...]
Easy Baked (Everyday) Cheesecake »
This cheesecake is very simple, perfect for everyday dessert. Most cheesecake recipes call for 2 -5 (8oz) boxes of creamcheese, that’s just too much (expensive too ) and reason enough for me to only make cheesecakes on special ocassions but I can’t always wait for a birthday or anniversary to come so I thought why not make a practical [...]
Orange-Lemon Pork Tenderloin »
Years back when I was a kid, there was no cable television yet; there were only about 5 channels available then and there was this Chinese cooking show that I used to watch pretty regularly because it comes before the cartoons. It was in all in Chinese so I didn’t understand a thing but I [...]
Kaiserschmarren »
What?..what’s that again?!..my kids asked after I told them what we’re having for dessert.. it’s kaiser-something, I said and please don’t ask me anymore because I honestly can’t say it correctly, all I know is that I have to make this after seeing it on Wolfgang Puck’s website because it looks so yummy!
Kaiserschmarrn is an Austrian dessert that is [...]
Granola and Fruits Parfait »
This is a very delicious treat for breakfast or brunch, so easy to make if you already have granola and mixed fresh fruits salad on hand.
It may look like a dessert, taste like it, but it’s very healthy and very heavy in the tummy-in a good way- because it’s loaded with fibers; in fact [...]
Creamy Pasta Primavera »
Pasta Primavera is simply pasta with vegetables seasoned with some herbs; I like this pasta dish because I can add any vegetable ( not leafy ones although I sometimes add spinach ) I want or whatever is available to me; I like to add some meat too, like chicken breast fillet, to make it a [...]
Mango Layer Cake (Biscuit de Savoie) »
This cake is on the cover of the baking book, Ultimate Cake by Barbara Maher that my husband gave me years ago, but this is only the first time I have tried making it because I kept on hoping that I will eventually get my hands on fresh strawberries and raspberries which this cake has [...]
Maruya (Saba Banana Fritters) »
My kids like this a LOT! I’m glad that they also like the food that I love as a kid , I try to recreate some of it in my kitchen as best I can, some are easy, some are not…good thing this fritter is very easy and quick to make because my kids ask [...]
Cheesy Spinach and Silken Tofu Ravioli »
Yes, finally I’ve made it..my homemade ravioli-olli yay! :) I’ve been meaning to try Tyler Florence’s ravioli dough recipe for the longest time and I was only able to make it recently. Tyler’s recipe is very simple and homecook- friendly, I have other ravioli recipes saved but this is the best one for me. It wasn’t really difficult to [...]
