    Garlic Rice with Egg

    There is a distinctive taste in stir-fries cooked by Chinese restaurant chefs, who are great masters of “wok-hei” or wok-breath in Cantonese, which refers to the unique flavour produced by the wok. Wok-hei can only be achieved if the wok is smoking hot even before oil is added. I used peanut oil as it has a high smoking point and a nutty flavour.

    Stir Fried Spicy Lady’s Fingers

    Lady’s fingers aka okra is a popular vegetable in Indian homes. It is cooked in different ways and different textures. I like my lady’s fingers a bit slimy and have never bothered to “remove” the sliminess.

    Warung Ijo

    The interior wall décor was very simple - a bicycle frame, different types of tables and chairs and even swing seats were used to decorate the restaurant. The menu is big and once you have made your decision with your choice of dishes, you will have to go up to the cashier and pay for your food before you sit down.

    Prepare Breadfruit for Cooking

    The breadfruit is sometimes mistaken for a young jackfruit! This fruit has very thin, bumpy skin compared to the jackfruit and the flesh is white or pale yellow. The breadfruit certainly does not taste like bread.  It has a mild taste of a potato and is starchy and you can roast, bake, steam, grill, stir fry……… just like you would handle a potato.

    The Smell of Sambar

    She used a firewood stove; the pot will be so black on the outside, and the interior is where one of the most delicious sambar would be boiling. My mother used to make her sambar quite thick, with lots of tur dhal; she would add a handful of mung dal to thicken it as she said.

Devagi Sanmugam

As a chef, spice curator, and author of over 20 cookbooks, my life revolves around the exquisite world of food. I am deeply passionate about experiencing food in all its forms—I love to see, touch, smell, hear, and feel the ingredients that create culinary magic. Each spice tells a story, every herb evokes a memory, and the textures of food bring joy to my senses. Traveling is not just a pastime for me; it is an essential part of my journey as a culinary educator. Exploring diverse cuisines around the world allows me to expand my knowledge and understanding of food, enriching both my cooking and teaching. I revel in discovering new flavors and techniques that I can share with others, igniting their own passion for cooking. This blog is a heartfelt expression of my love for food—a platform where I can share my culinary adventures, insights, and recipes. Join me as we explore global cuisine, celebrating the beautiful and delicious experiences that food offers.
