About Me

I love to cook and more importantly, I like to improve the way I cook certain dishes. As such, this blog is borne out of a desire for a simple and organized way to manage the different variations of the dish that I tried. I will be posting recipes, pictures and comments on what works for me and what don’t. Hopefully, you will enjoy your time here, and do remember to give your feedback! Cooking is a constant evolution, a process and definitely not an end result!

Roasted Chicken with Vegetables

Who don't prefer a smoke-free, grease-free kitchen?

Especially nowadays when open concept kitchen is such a lovely thing to have in our house, the main concern is that if you cook, it's going to be a big NO for a lot of families due to the inevitable smoke and grease generated.

A powerful cooker hood may minimise our concern, but the size of a cooker hood increase with its suction power. That's what I found out when I was shopping for my kitchen appliances. I believe that a lot of young families or families that have moved to a new house will have the same consideration as I do with regards to space constraint - Do we want more storage space or a powerful cooking hood? To satisfy the curiosity of some readers, I chose more storage space. =)

The show stopper for cooking to most people is the post-cooking effect - Wash up time!

Roasting, grilling, baking may seem to be a tough mission but I have to disagree with that! Cooking can never be easier with a Microwave Oven in our kitchen. More importantly, using a Microwave Oven is smoke-free, grease-free and healthier!
