Homemade Milk Kefir

Kefir smoothie with mango and banana. 

Like many people, I have heard about making milk kefir but it seems such an exotic, foreign, un-understandable (is that such a word?) subject that, for the longest time I just simply, conveniently parked it under the "too hard" category. 

Homemade Salt and Pepper seasoning, and Salt and Pepper Chicken Wings

This recipe has been on my to-do list for ages, and I'm so glad I finally came round to making it just in time for CNY this year. 

Instant Blueberry Jam

This is one of those recipes that made me go "wow, really?!!"

Sesame Dressing and Spinach Gomae (Spinach in Sesame Dressing)

I actually made both of these quite a while ago, but have forgotten all about them in my draft box until recently. 

Apple Butter with a gingery zing!

Lately, hubby and I have been frequenting a nearby morning market to get our supply of fresh fruits.  I stocked up on loads of green apples and used some to make Apple Butter.  I love all things apple, especially baked goods and spreads, so the idea of having hot toast with apple butter sounds totally irresistable. 

My Favourite Salad Dressing

 

Very often, usually on Mondays and Tuesdays especially after a weekend of eating out, I will make a big bowl of salad for hubby and myself for lunch.  

Strawberry Jam

Never in my whole life have i ever managed to get such cheap and fresh strawberries - so happy! Tesco had a (re)opening promotion for these Cameronian beauties - at RM1 per punnet...an absolute steal.

Perfect to make that strawberry jam I have been thinking about for quite a while.

Easy Chocolate Sauce

After I made my banana sorbet, it occurred to me that it would be nice to have it with some chocolate sauce.  I went looking for a bottle in the supermarket, but the only brand that i like was Hershey, and it was quite pricey.  So I thought, maybe I can try to make my own.

Sweet Sambal Tumis

This was my first attempt at making sambal LOL!

Guiltfree Yogurt Cream Cheese with Herbs

 

You may be wondering how is this recipe guiltfree?  Well, that's because it's made using low fat yogurt, so you can totally tuck into it without having to worry about the calories :).
