Luncheon meat

Lift, bend and pull!


Do you still store this in your pantry?

Well, I don't. Saw it at Lidl and wanted to remind myself of mom-cooked meals :)

Ahh....sinful! Later I found out that a can contained 29% of fat!!

Heat oil, add in sliced onions, stir fry til fragrant, throw in sliced chilli, stir in luncheon meat..again stir fry for a bit. Finally, season with pinch of sugar and if you like, a dash of light soy sauce. Ready!

Chocolate Walnut Biscotti


It was nearly 10pm when I'm finally free to bake ...

First "oops!" - accidentally used baking powder instead of baking soda.
I didn't know what the effect would be ..what's the difference anyway? Luckily it didnt show any side effect . Now that I have read the difference, let me link here for you ;)

Second "oops!" - when I tried to cut it after 20 mins of baking. Some small bits crumbled and the shape was all wrong !

Despite the mess, it tasted pretty good!! I'll be making it again for sure. Thought of a trick to avoid the crumbling next time. We will see how'd that turn out.

Oh, get recipe here.
