【手撕口水鸡】Sichuan Mouth Watering Chicken

 

很多超市的烤鸡是人尽皆知的价廉物美，可惜我们家几乎从来没办法完整地吃完一只烤鸡，所以很少会买超市的烤鸡吃。

前几天逛开市客想着很久没吃烤鸡了，就买了一只他家的烤鸡。吃了一顿后还剩下大半只待在冰箱里放着没人要吃了。

刚好记起之前看见过朋友圈好友把剩下的烤鸡用红油加工了吃，灵机一触，就把冰箱里剩下的烤鸡拿来做了口水鸡，结果当然就是被吃得干干净净了，就连不太会吃辣的俊宝都吃了不少。

Costco's rotisserie chicken is known to be priced reasonably, thus is one item most members purchase while shopping at Costco. Unfortunately, in our family, we can never finish a whole chicken at a time, so we rarely buy this rotisserie chicken. 

I went shopping at Costco last week and brought one rotisserie chicken since we have not eaten one for a long time. As usual, we were left with more than half of chicken and no one wanted it again.

I suddenly remembered a saliva chicken dish made by a friend on FB before, so I used the leftover chicken to make this dish, it is so tasty, that I think next time when I shop at Costco, rotisserie chicken will be in order!

【辣炒卤鸡胗】Stir Fry Chicken Gizzard With Pepper

买菜的时候如果发现鸡胗特价我经常会买两盒做卤鸡胗放冰箱慢慢吃。卤好的鸡胗除了直接吃，拿来这样炒辣椒/青椒也很下饭。

Whenever I find chicken gizzards on sale at the supermarket, I will often buy two boxes to make braised chicken gizzards and keep them in the refrigerator. 

The braised chicken gizzards can be eaten directly, it can also be easily converted into quick stir fry dishes like this stir fry chicken gizzard with chili/green peppers.

【炒合菜】Stir Fry Mixed Vegetables and Egg

 

几年前阿姨送我一盆她自己种的韭菜，结果每年都会自己长出来，所以每年春天开始就每几周就有一批韭菜可以吃。今天又收了一批韭菜，刚好家里有豆芽，就做了这个炒合菜，真是好吃呀！

My aunt gave me a pot of Chinese Chive that she grew, the chives have been coming back every year. So every few weeks from the beginning of every spring, I will have a batch of Chinese Chive ready for cooking. 

Today I harvested a batch of the Chinese Chive, and happened to have some bean sprouts at home, so I made this stir-fried vegetables with eggs. It is used as filling for spring rolls in the Northern part of China, I liked it with rice too.

【泰式南瓜布丁】Sankaya Faktung

I love all kinds of desserts in Thailand a lot, and this pumpkin pudding is one of them, as I also love pumpkin alot. 

I saw some small Japanese pumpkins (Kabocha) in an Asian supermarket couple of days back, it was perfect size for this dessert, so I bought a few and made this dessert. It is really delicious.

我很喜欢泰国的各种甜点，这款南瓜布丁尤其长到我的点上，因为我也很喜欢南瓜。不久前在亚洲超市看到刚上市的日本小南瓜，就买回来做一次这个甜点，真的特别好吃。

【潮州炸虾饼】Teow Chew Style Prawn Fritters

One of the famous supper choices in my hometown is this Chinese Style Prawn Fritters. The hawker selling this also sells fried tofu, fried fish cakes/balls and the likes.

To order a plate of fried goodies from the stall and dip into their special Sweet sauce and Chili sauce was one luxury thing to do as a kid. Probably one reason this snack still holds a very special place in my heart.

I have made this shrimp fritters with the mold before, today I have made another variation without mold and has less flour, it is tasting very good！

年少时周末口袋里要是有几毛钱，一般就会呼朋唤友到离家不远的小摊子吃夜宵。我最喜欢的一款夜宵就是这个炸虾饼，摊子老板也会同时卖炸豆腐炸鱼丸等等炸物。

点上一盘炸虾饼和炸物，沾着老板特制的辣椒酱和甜酱，边吃边和朋友聊天调侃，是那个年代最简单的乐趣。

我之前用模具做过传统的炸虾饼，非常好吃，今天做的这批面糊比较少，也不需要模具，想尝试又没有模具的朋友可以试试这个做法。

Oatmeal Banana Muffins 【燕麦香蕉玛芬】

Summer holiday started and it has been raining for couple of days. Since we cant do much out door and the weather has been gloomy, I decided to bake a batch of this muffins for A's snack using the ingredients we have at home.

暑假开始了，却连续几天都在下雨。 周末没办法出门，我决定用家里的原料烤一批玛芬作为儿子的零食。这个周末就在家吃点零食，煲煲剧好了。

Pillow Style Cantonese Style Dumplings 【五角广式咸肉粽】

It was Dumpling/Dragon Festival last week, it is a tradition at home to make some dumplings (glutinous rice wrapped in bamboo leaves) during the season.

This year I started the festival with this Cantonese Style of Dumplings which have moong beans in it and tasted though different than the type of Bak Zhang that  I am used to and loved, it is still one  of my favourites.

今年端午节前一直想着要裹点粽子过节，材料都买好了，却一直等到端午节当天才有时间裹，虽然闽南烧肉粽是每年一定要裹的家乡味。

今年所裹的第一款肉粽却是这款港式/广式肉粽，它是我很喜欢的一款肉粽，也是俊干妈的家乡味，裹好分一半给俊干爹干妈过节。

【三角杂粮粽】Multigrain Dumplings

 

一直想做一款健康美味，吃了肠胃也不负担的粽子。刚好家里有很多豆子和谷类，我也经常做杂粮粘豆包当早餐。今天就做个杂粮粽吧！

I have been planning to make this healthy and delicious rice dumpling for sometimes now. 

I always keeps a pantry- full of legumes and grains, this dumplings uses many of them and is so tasty and full of good nutrients and flavors!
