Ube Mille Crepe (Purple Sweet Potato Mille Crepe)

The weather was terrible. Hot, humid and unbearable. I could feel myself getting sickly, complete with blocked nose and general lethargy. Baking is out of the question for this weekend, I think the house is too warm to handle a hot oven. Seeing all the sweet potatoes lying on the kitchen counter, I thought that sweet potato soup with ginger would help, but maybe I could use some of the deep, bright purple ube to make something pretty and cheer myself up.
I think I chose a lousy way to make myself feel better: I stood in front of the stove and patiently cooked the crepes layer by layer, made a ube puree, and stacked them all to make a ube mille crepe. But I am proud of my masterpiece. If I could do this, whipping cream and layering it to form a Nadeje mille crepe replica will be a cinch. I could make this for DaddyS for his birthday!

Dining in Hatyai - Kam Ying Restaurant

Back in February during the festive Chinese New Year period, we packed our bags and went on a family trip to neighbourhood Hatyai, Thailand. Our trip was solely focused on shopping with some food thrown in, so not much sightseeing has been done. The place was jam packed with Malaysian tourists but still fun nonetheless.

One of the very first meals I had after stepping into Thai soil consist of the signature dish: tom yam.

We order this soup almost every meal. Sourish, spicy and full of flavour, this soup is very appetizing. The Thai version is slightly more sour, light and refreshing than Malaysian tom yam. They don't skimp on ingredients. When we order seafood tomyam, we get a general serving of real seafood like prawns, fish slices, squid, clam, and even chicken slices.

Deepfried fish. Crispy.

Oyster omelet.

Kam heong stirfried crabmeat. This is the laziest way to eat crab. Sans the shell, it is easier to eat the meat.

Mango kerabu.

Fried kangkung.

Some fried meat.

Chicken in Milk

In a blink of an eye, its already the month of July! Time passed real fast, and before we knew it, more than half of the year is gone. In the beginning of the year I made a resolution to eat better, eat more home-cooked and most importantly, eat healthy, real food. For the first few months we did well, felt wonderful and well fed, but lately, due to the increasing workload, we've been eating out more often than I liked.
"That will not do!", I thought, so to make peace with myself I gathered some ingredients to make a proper dinner. It was Jamie Oliver's Chicken in Milk, and it was easy, if only I don't need to fry the chickens first, it will be even easier. If I am ever making this again, I will fry two dozens of drumsticks, stick them into the freezer, and slowly pull out a few drumsticks to cook this for dinner until my stash of drumstick is gone. Tell me its a sane thing to do, please?

Other than frying the drumsticks (frying is a skill that I am lacking in)…
