Oily fish like salmon contain a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, which help to maintain a healthy heart, so try to include them in your diet on a weekly basis. Here’s an easy recipe for Thai-Style Baked Wild Salmon to try out at home!

Low-effort high-reward, creamy-without-cream mushroom soup that you’d want to keep in your arsenal of go-to recipes!

Get your hands on some avocados and whip up this super simple and delicious Japanese-Inspired Guacamole served with crispy gyoza skins!

Dishes like ramen usually take a lot of time and effort to make, especially if you want to achieve a rich and creamy broth. Here’s a quick trick that requires no meat bones, and only 30 mins of your time. I know, I too thought it was too good to be true, especially with the amazing flavours it yielded! For the effort it takes, I’d even say it trumps traditional ramen broths.

This was a recipe created for Fairprice Finest’s ‘Finest Festival’ where they highlighted the art of Lagom, a Swedish philosophy for living a balanced life. Lagom means: Not too little. Not too much. Just right.⁣

This bowl of Ochazuke definitely goes up there on the list of my comfort favourites along with dishes like Teochew porridge and Pao Fan. I must really like something about softened, watered down rice…

This was one of my favourite recipes made over the Circuit Breaker (read: lockdown) period. It requires at least 1 pot, 1 pan, and 1 baking dish (which is a lot for Ms One-Pot Meal here), but the recipe is simple, and the results are incredibly rewarding – so rewarding that it justifies all the dishes you whipped out.

Pesto: greens + nuts + cheese + nuts + acid + oil. I rarely make pesto the traditional way using basil and pine nuts, because I don’t have them casually lying around, and I like to make things with what I have at home – so today its kale and walnuts!

My take on one of my favourite Thai dishes, Laarb Gai/Laab Gai, using tempeh and cauliflower instead of the usual minced meat.

In a time like this, we are going for dishes that can be made with ingredients that are affordable and easy to stock up on. I’ve mostly gone for canned products here (chickpeas, chopped tomatoes, etc), so you can keep these in your kitchen cupboard on standby for whenever the cravings kick in.

Braised eggplant (鱼香茄子) is a must-order for me each time I’m at a Chinese restaurant. It’s commonly cooked with minced pork, but I’ve swapped that out with some crumbled tau kwa (firm tofu) this time, and I loved it just as much!

Mushroom (Meat)balls? Mushroom meatless balls? Mushroom balls? Whatever it is, these are absolutely plant-based, and are just as good as the OG meatballs! Eat them as they are with some marinara sauce, smashed in a cheesy sandwich, or make them ahead to keep in your freezer!

The pastry needs only 4 ingredients* and a tupperware box. No need for rolling pins or mixing bowls! This is my go-to when someone decides to come over for dinner unplanned. The pastry literally takes you LESS THAN 5 MINS to put together using just a few pantry staples!

Inspired by….our beloved curry puff of course! If you’re a pastry lover like me, this recipe for the crust is perfect and incredibly easy. It’s light in texture, yet sturdy enough to hold your favourite fillings. This time I’m using pumpkin and feta, but feel free to play around with what you have at home!

This is a dish I’m pretty sure most kids grew up eating in Singapore/Malaysia! I have bad memories eating this as a kid as it had all the elements I didn’t like: sardines, raw onions, coriander. And to top it off, my mom would slap it in a sandwich using wholemeal bread – ugh! The best part of all this? These are ingredients I love today haha!

Mmm one of my all-time favourites! It’s packed with lean protein that will keep you full for longer, and the mackerel is a great source of brain- and heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids!

Your next movie night snack, sorted! Try out this recipe for chilli con carne that’s heartier and tastier than your average bucket of popcorn.

A quick & easy pizza to put together in 30 minutes with whatever ingredients you have lying around at home!

If you don’t already have a jar of peanut butter at home, get one pronto, and get working! This is one of my favourite dishes to cook up when I want something comforting and delicious.
