I am now a fan of cooking rice in cast iron pots. Believe me, the aroma of the dish that comes out of cast iron pots is stronger and more convincing than if the same ingredients were thrown into a rice cooker or a wok to cook. All the different flavours become encapsulated within the pot when the various ingredients come together to cook and boil. As such, the rice and flavours melt into one and the rice becomes especially tender and fragrant.


Instant noodles taste nice cooked in whichever method is accessible and with whatever ingredients are available. In fact, instant noodles are probably the best ingredient to have at home because one can blindly add in whatever leftovers from the fridge and still churn out a yummy plate of noodles that will not go wrong on an empty stomach.

Culinary behemoths Wolfgang Puck, Mario Batali, and Tetsuya Wakuda are just three of the chefs who have launched their highly-regarded restaurants in Marina Bay Sands.


A recent conversation with my Irish colleague had me wondering about the origin of this dish. I’ve seen many websites state that this dish originated from Ireland and has its roots stemmed in the Irish grounds. But this colleague of mine told me straight in the face that Bangers and Mash is a dish that is more common among the English than the Irish. Indeed, I have also observed a similar preference for Bangers and Mash when I was studying in the UK, particularly in pubs. It is almost a regular favourite amongst the student population compared to the other types of pub food offered.
