Tofu with mushroom


This is so yummy and easy on the stomach.

Marinated some minced pork with dark soya sauce, sesame oil, light soya sauce and corn flour.

Stir fry minced garlic, add in mushroom and minced pork , oyster sauce , sugar to taste and add some water. When cooked, add cubed tofu and cornflour solution. Garnish with chopped spring onion or red chilli.

Baked soya sauce chicken


Instead of stir frying soya sauce chicken, I baked them. No need to use oil and no oily kitchen floor.

Just marinate some chicken parts with sesame oil, oyster sauce, sugar, minced garlic and ginger and baked them at 200 degrees for about 40 mins or so, but turned them every 20 mins or so.



My oven is so useful.

Sweet and Sour Chicken Popcorn


Got this frozen chicken popcorn from NTUC Supermarket.

Deep fried them till golden brown and set aside to drain the oil. Best use clean oil and not recycled oil.


Cut some tomatoes and onions.





Green Peas (I used can peas but best used frozen peas)







Stir fry the onions, tomatoes and peas and add ketchup, water, sugar, cornflour solution and lastly add in the already fried popcorn chickens. (Measurements are agak agak)


If not eating straight away, best separate the ketchup sauce from the popcorn chicken otherwise the chicken will be soggy.


No need to add salt cause the frozen chicken already a bit salty.
