【燕麦葡萄干曲奇饼】Oatmeal Raisin Cookie

之前回娘家两个月，家里的另外一个人居然一连买了两大盒的燕麦又不吃。

昨晚被肚子里的小子踢得受不了，睡不着觉就深夜烤了这个曲奇饼。可以下午茶吃，还消耗了不少的燕麦。

I have two boxes of old fashioned oatmeal sitting in the pantry for quite some times. Since we are all not a big fans of oatmeal porridge. I decided to turn it into some delicious cookie.

Old Cucumber Soup （老黄瓜汤）

The cucumber mum and I planted this year was not growing well at all. So I decided to let it grow into old cucumber, I love old cucumber soup and never find this old cucumber at the local Asian supermarket here.

This old cucumber soup is said to be good for reducing heat in the body and help prevent dryness in autumn season...

Tomato Chutney

I will normally prepare this chutney for snacks like samosa, Kati roll, spring roll or pakora, it goes very well even for grill sandwich too!

A good use of tomatoes when it is growing too much too fast in the garden!

Sambal Tempeh Petai (Stinking Bean) 【叁巴丹贝臭豆】

Ever since I received the tempeh starter sent by a friend. I have been making tempeh at home. It is a good source of protein and is one of my favorite cooking ingredients back home. （You could now find tempeh at trader Joe's and wholefood, a good substitute to meat/fish!）

As my tempeh was growing at home, I saw frozen Petai/Stinking bean at the local Asian supermarket, it has been  a long time since I have petai, I just couldn't resist bringing a packet home.

This Sambal tempeh petai is a very healthy and really satisfying dish!

自从朋友给我寄来丹贝黴菌之后我就经常在家自己做丹贝。丹贝是个非常好的植物蛋白质来源。刚好前几天在Hmart看见有泰国进口的臭豆（美丽球花豆/Petai/Power bean），是东南亚很特殊的一种食材。

臭豆之所以称为臭豆是因为它有一种特殊的气味，一般人可能不太容易习惯。但是臭豆的功效也是非常多的，还有降血糖的功效。今天做的这个丹贝臭豆叁巴，是东南亚很家常的一个素食食谱，下饭好吃。

【奶香炖杂豆】Dal Makhni （Creamy Lentil Stew）

这道奶香炖杂豆是慢火炖出来的豆子汤，有浓郁的奶油香味，是吃过了不会忘记的一个滋味。

This creamy lentil stew is one of the best lentil stew I have ever had.. It is a good dish for party and get together. Though the preparation is time consuming, it is definitely worth the effort as it is the kind of dish that once one had it will never forget the taste.

Korean Style Pork Bone Potato Stew (Gamjatang) 【韩式土豆骨头汤】

I have always ordered this stew whenever I visited a Korean restaurant and have been thinking of of making it once at home.

I bought a box of neck bone from Korean supermarket last weekend, together with zucchini and potatoes from my garden, I made this super yummy stew for dinner!

I love the fact that it has got everything, from soup to protein to vegetables in one pot... good dish to dine alone!

周末到韩国超市买菜的时候买了一大盒子的汤骨头，为的就是做这个韩式骨头汤，很喜欢用它来泡饭，浓浓的肉骨香味，和很多的蔬菜一起吃，是一个人吃饭的时候很适合做的一道菜。

Quinoa Soy Bean Idli

Quinoa is said to be the super food and has the complete set of nutrients that human body needs to survive...
Idli is another high protein, high nutrients food... making idli using Quinoa just make it sounds so healthy and wonderful!

Don't you agree?

Okra with Minced Meat 【肉末炒秋葵】

This summer was one of the hottest summer in past many years, good for plants that thrive in hot weather, Okra is one of them.

I harvested a bunch last week and didn't have time to cook until today. I was thinking of making some con-gee for lunch, and this okra dish is simply perfect for go with it.

今年夏天天气比较热，院子里的秋葵长得很是不错，收成了好多却一直没时间做。
今天想吃点粥，就做了个肉末秋葵下粥。简单好吃又营养！
