This is yet another of my favourite recipe – Caprese stuffed avocados with loads of vitamin Cs and freshness. There’s green, red, orange; there are fruits, vegetables and a sweet savoury dressing. Anyone who takes a mouthful of this will go mmmmmmm….
I love avocados. I love roasted bell peppers. I love coriander. Mix them together and viola! They become a great salad. This recipe is really easy to make, and by itself actually makes for a great meal already. Yes, I can survive on salad alone for my meals, so I love fresh, simple dishes like this.
This weekend is Easter Friday and Easter Sunday holidays. Finally a long-awaited break from work so that we can wind down a bit from work. It’s been very sunny and hot with flashes of sudden and heavy showers in the afternoon. After having spent just a week in China which saw very cool and nice but sunny weathers (except on Friday) I had to take some time to get used to being back in humid hot Singapore.
I just came back from a work trip to China. I didn’t realise that people in China love noodles so much, they can eat them everyday. The noodles in Dunhuang are really smooth, and their broth strongly flavoured (I like!) The zhajiangmian in Beijing very healthy, with a lot of mixed fresh vegetables and beans. The sauce is delicious. The portion is HUGE though. I think I managed to survive in these two cities because there are noodles, and because the flavours are very close to what we have here in Singapore.
The Japanese melon pan, or melon bread, is a sweet bread that is baked with a layer of slightly crispy cookie dough at the top. It is baked in a similar way as the coffee bun (Rotiboys) and Hong Kong polo bun, where the layer on top that is baked with the bun is the key to making the buns tasty and flavourful.
