Old Fashioned Mee Goreng
Mee Goreng, a signature Singaporean dish, showcases Indian and Malay influences in its aromatic blend of spices, tangy calamansi, and savoury soy. The stir frying over very high heat using an iron wok imparts a smoky essence, elevating the stir-fried noodles, infusing them with a delectable, charred flavour and enticing aroma.

Curried Seafood Pasta
I was recently asked about pairing pasta with curry or incorporating curry powder into pasta dishes for a flavorful outcome. From my experience, I've found that most carbohydrates can blend well with curry powder or various spices. When preparing a Marinara sauce for pasta, I often enhance its flavor profile by adding a touch of Kashmiri chili powder, garam masala, or sometimes even curry powder.

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.

Kitchidi Rice
It is said that Kitchidi Rice has a little history behind it. It came about accidentally. It is quite common to have leftover dhal curry and rice and I think someone experimented by mixing the curry and rice together and leaving it for a few hours before eating it.

Masala Vadai Pasta
I am so used to making the basic recipe and then make different dishes out of it. Masala Vadai is high in protein and nutritious. Instead of deep frying, you can also steam them.
