Beef and Pork Burger
Mix some finely chopped onions, ground black pepper and salt into the ground beef with some ground pork. Fry on a griddle or grill. Serve in toasted Pan De Sal or any small bun together with lettuce, sliced tomatoes and cucumbers, pickle chip, mustard and ketchup.

Twists 2011 Part 2

Most pics are from 2011, but I'm only uploading them now. Some of the titles pretty much explain what's in the recipe. :-)


Mussels in Beer (in this case, Chinese Rice Wine)

Sauté chopped garlic, ginger, chili and coriander stalks with crushed, washed and drained black beans. Add a cup of rice wine (or beer!) and let the alcohol dissipate a little bit, then start putting the mussels by batches. Take out once they open. Throw away those that don't. When all the mussels have been cooked, add the remaining coriander leaves and a squeeze of lemon and a bit of dried marjoram in the remaining sauce. Cook for a few seconds then pour back into the mussels and serve.


Fried Rice with Vegetables

Like making plain fried rice with garlic, just add chopped onions, cabbage, carrots, green beans, Chinese Sausage, Five Spices, salt, a dash of sesame oil until everything smells good.

Have the rice with Baked Asparagus Wrapped in Bacon with Teriyake and Sesame Oil Baste
