Sambal Panggang Ayam | Sambal Grilled Chicken with Simple Slaw
This is one of my quick easy go-to recipes whenever I wanna grill or BBQ some chicken. The neat part is not having to marinate the chicken for long hours (or overnight); it also pairs well with my simple slaw (with a bit of an Asian twist). If you are not grilling or BBQ outdoors, you can use a griddle or even a pan to sear the chicken.

If you are not residing in Singapore, you can replace the sambal with any chili or hot sauce of your preference. Harissa, Sambal Oelek, or Thai Red Chili Sauce will be awesome as well.

Sambal Udang Telur | Sambal Shrimps with Egg Sambal Udang Telur | Sambal Shrimps with Egg
Have I told you that my Grandma is a mix of Indonesian and Portuguese? So, imagine her food is like a mixture of Indonesian and Portuguese cultures fusing together. That sounds awesome, right? Well, the fact of the matter is not really a fusion, but dishes are done right and properly. She has authenticity in her own unique style & way of cooking.As much as I can remember, she would cook stews of sambal with various ingredients, served them over rice and that would be dinner. Well, as you lovely people know that I dislike rice. I took an unorthodox route with fried Vietnamese rice paper instead. I also poached an egg in the sambal stew; I mean 1 TBSP of egg white is used to marinate the shrimps, why not cook the whole egg too?

Bak Kwa Sambal Nasi Goreng | Jerky Sambal Fried Rice Bak Kwa Sambal Nasi Goreng | Jerky Sambal Fried Rice
I seem to be in a fried rice frenzy these days. Largely due to the influence of Uncle Roger storming thru social media. Haiya! If you do not know who Uncle Roger is, you are clearly missing out a lot. Like a lot! Secondly, after my kimchi fried rice, I began falling in love with fried rice even tho I am not a fan of rice. Yes, I am saying that out loud. I am considered a black sheep for disliking rice in my family, cos dogma has it that Asians need to have rice in their diet.After Lunar New Year, we will tend to have loads of bak kwa remaining. My grandma just whipped up this fried rice one day, using bak kwa leftovers and a very unique sauce. Her secret ingredient is the black fermented shrimp paste. It has that sweet umami bomb that elevates the whole dish. You can of cos use bacon or even Prosciutto. If you want your bacon or Prosciutto to be crispy, you can precook them before stir-frying into the fried rice. In closing, I hope you will give this recipe a try and I hope Uncle Roger will approve. -

Thousand Island Slaw Thousand Island Slaw
This is an easy creamy slaw recipe that goes well with various American-style BBQs, and since we're in high BBQ and grilling season, I thought it a good time to share.I call it a Thousand Island Slaw because the flavors mimic that sweet tangy savory creamy flavor of Thousand Island dressing. It's my eldest daughter's favorite slaw, which she requests whenever we make fried or roasted chicken or barbecue - she loves to snack on leftovers later in the day.And I am all about whatever gets my family happily munching on raw veg.Add some celery seeds (just about 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoonful), and it's great on a Reuben, too.When you're selecting heads of cabbage, always check for tightly packed leaves and high density of water content. A good way to check for the latter is to pick up a few of the same size and select the one that's heaviest for that size. This means the cabbage is fresh and still has a lot of its original water content.
