Japanese

Ondeh-Ondeh Mochi Cookies
Inspired by the much-loved ondeh-ondeh kueh, this crispy pandan flavoured cookie is stuffed with Gula Melaka mochi, after which the whole confection drizzled with coconut icing and desiccated coconut. These pretty emerald green cookies will surely be the highlight of any dessert table and their surprise gooey centre will make any party guests do a pleasant double take.

Spicy Suan La Fen Soup Noodles

Spicy Suan La Fen Soup Noodles
Once the noodles are done, the next part to making China's wildly popular hot sour soup, or Suan La Fen Tang, is the soup itself. You might be surprised but simmering chicken stock is the base of the red hot, vinegary soup. It's only overshadowed by show stopping flavours of buzzing Sichuan red pepper oil, and the sharp zap of black vinegar. Of course, the proportions are flexible, so play around with it if you want more heat, less vinegar, and so on. What pulls this whole thing together is a spoon of smooth sesame oil that gives it a nutty, aromatic heaviness that mellows out the heat and sour.

Mochi-licious August 

Sticky, chewy, melty deliciousness all round August and we have created a series of some of our favourite ingredients all made into mochi mode. 

Salted Egg

Pumpkin & Salted Egg Mochi Cookies
These moist cookies are based on the famous tze char dish –Crispy Fried Pumpkin with Salted Egg Yolk. Golden pumpkin cookies are filled with a sunshine-y, salted egg yolk mochi –offering an interesting burst of flavours and textures. An entire pumpkin is usually hard to finish in one sitting, and this recipe allows you to extend the shelf life of potentially overripe pumpkins. Fans of salted egg yolk dishes will surely love digging into this tea-time treat that is best paired with some cooling floral teas.
Pumpkin & Salted Egg Mochi Cookies
Egg Custard Mochi Puff

Egg Custard Mochi Puff
What’s white and stretchy, brown and flaky –all at once? Well, it’s the Egg Custard Mochi Puff. The store-bought egg custard filled mochi ball is snugly fitted into a sweet brown puff pastry, transforming into an unexpectedly genius baked treat that takes just under 15 mins in the oven. Our advice? Take a big bite into the varying layers of crust, or pop the whole treat into your mouth and simply savour.
Purple Mochi Cookies

Purple Mochi Cookies
Want to indulge in some cookies but prefer the soft, chewy kind that you can enjoy over several bites? Try out these beautiful Purple Mochi Cookies that pack lightly sweet, nutty, almost vanilla-like flavors in each mouthful. Purple sweet potato lends a light purple color, and gives an earthy flavour, and moist texture to these cookies. If you don’t have purple sweet potato and still desire a pretty purple hue to yourbaked treats, try replacing them with Ube, the purple yam which is similar in taste, and most famously used in the Filipino Halo-Halo dessert.
Charcoal & Durian Mochi Cookies

Charcoal & Durian Mochi Cookies
A crispy black exterior is juxtaposed with a chewy yellow Musang King mochi interior to give you a delightful contrast of colours, flavours and textures. These Charcoal and Durian Mochi Cookies will definitely evoke the curiosity of your friends and loved ones, as they can only guess what these dark-as-night treats will hold. Convert your leftover durians that have gone a bit soft and mushy to this eye-catching black and yellow snack and enjoy your favourite pungent fruit in a novel manner!

We are both team brownie and blondie and we have just the perfect recipes for you to try both.

Dessert

Beautifully moist and fudgy, the miso paste is a modern addition in these brownies which adds a new dimension of flavor that is irresistible. For fans of sea salt pastries, these Brown Butter & Miso Brownies are the choice tea-time snack, as it fulfills your craving for savory sweet treats in the afternoon.

Brown Butter Miso Brownies
Musang King Blondies

Musang King Blondies
Blondies are rich, dense dessert bars designed to be indulged in on their own. Here, we add in flavorful, pungent Musang King durians for a whole new level of blondie goodness. Baking the bittersweet Mao Shan Wang gives it a mellower, deeper flavor, giving you and your loved ones a new way to enjoy the durian.These bars are super easy to store due to their compact nature –that is if any is left after you’ve made them!
Milo Dinosaur Brownies

Milo Dinosaur Brownies
We love our Milo Dinosaurs, so why not have it as a brownie? Dense and chewy, this Milo brownie is familiar and indulgent all at once.Like normal brownies, they are incredible easy to make and is often the go-to recipe for whipping up something quick for the kids over the weekend. Milo adds a sweet, malty taste to this classic dessert, and pairs so well with all that chocolate-y goodness.
Thai Tea Boba Blondies

Thai Tea Boba Blondies
Who says you can’t have tea and cake in a single bite? With boba or bubble teas being all the rage, we decided to combine it with our favorite Thai Tea and turn it into a blondie. The result is a mix of flavors and textures that will definitely get you the thumbs up. Throw in some cinnamon, nutmeg or cloves for a more aromatic pastry with a hint of spiciness. You can even drizzle some condensed milk over your warm Thai Tea & Boba Blondies an extra indulgent treat!

The Family Table

More people means more food, and here’s how you make for memorable and tastier family get-togethers with popular family recipes from Asian Food Network. Add flavors to the memories of sharing, loving, fighting, laughing, and making up with family. Spend less time worrying about what to make, and more time bonding with the ones you don’t treasure enough.

Malaysian

Asam Pedas Ikan (Spicy Tamarind Fish)
Asam Pedas is a popular sour and spicy fish stew that’s often cooked for family meals in Malaysia and Indonesia. We like to use freshwater Pomfret as that particular fish is naturally sweeter than others, but you can also use Salmon, Stingray, Red Snapper and many other local fishes. There are countless variations in hand-me-down recipes, but we’ve combined the best to bring you the most appetising version of Asam Pedas. Pair it with steaming coconut or normal basmati rice and the rice soak up the tasty gravy!
Asam Pedas Ikan (Spicy Tamarind Fish)
Chicken Katsudon

Chicken Katsudon
The Katsudon is one of the most well-known Japanese rice bowls in the world, and it is easy to see why –it is the perfect balance between sweet and salty, filled with delightful textures, thanks to the crunchy fried chicken and fat grains of rice swimming in a creamy sea of egg. To fully enjoy this dish, eat it hot off the stove!
Chicken Ros Curry (Kapitan Curry)

Chicken Ros Curry (Kapitan Curry)
This Chicken Ros Curry or Kapitan Curry recipe is my version of the same dish from a famous Nasi Kandar restaurant in Penang, that’s been around for over 130 years, and it’s the restaurant that catered for my late grandparents’ wedding. This is a recipe I cracked after diligently eating at the restaurant for three months. This recipe calls for homemade dried and fresh spice mix, it’s so rich and flavourful, perfect on special occasion like Raya!
kimchi jigae

kimchi jigae
The answer is no, it’s not as spicy as it looks. The Kimchi Jigae, or kimchi stew, may look incredibly spicy but it is actually quite mild when compared to say, the crushed red pepper flakes you use on your pizza. The main ingredients that make thisdish include thinly sliced pork belly, Korean red pepper paste and chili flakes, firm tofu and of course, the kimchi!
