Cabbage recipe: An easy cabbage omelette

After using some of the cabbage for the pita meal and then for a Simple Cabbage Soup, I still have way loads of cabbage to cook. So, next I modified a Japanese cabbage pancake recipe and end up with a cabbage omelette. Yeah, I know it sounds darn horrible especially for those with something against cabbage, but really, it’s not all that bad.

Okay, if you really hate cabbage that much, you don’t have to suffer through this recipe. Or the next one, for that matter. I promise, after tomorrow, I won’t be posting anymore cabbage recipe. Not . . . → Read More: Cabbage recipe: An easy cabbage omelette

What do you do with a huge head of cabbage?

So, we got a huge head of cabbage from a neighbour recently and what am I going to do with a huge head of cabbage that could spoil and stink up the fridge if not cooked and eaten.

First, I used some of it, raw, with my pita dinner with baked chicken breast meat. Then I cooked it in three other ways.

Here’s one of it:

Easy Cabbage Soup

Ingredients

5 large leaves of cabbage, roughly chopped

1.3 ltr water

2 large carrots, cut into chunks

2 pods garlic

2 tomatoes, sliced

half cube chicken stock

7 peppercorn

Chicken breast recipes: Stir-fried chicken breast meat with basil

When we talk about chicken breast meat, I can safely say it is pretty much our staple food at home. That’s why I even have a chicken recipes series or chicken breast recipes series. That’s because each time I cook, there must always be chicken. What can I say? We all love chicken.

Now, enough raving about the chicken and let’s get on to the three-step, stir fried chicken breast meat with Thai basil. Why three step? Well, because it isn’t four steps or one step or any other step. Just three easy steps. You slice the chicken, . . . → Read More: Chicken breast recipes: Stir-fried chicken breast meat with basil

Chicken recipes: Curried Baked Chicken Breast Recipe

This is one of my baked chicken breast recipes that is probably one of the easiest to prepare because it involves only three easy steps. Now, in my previous post on Chicken Recipes: Chicken Curry Kapitan, I mentioned that I used some of the curry paste from that dish to make this dish. So, do refer to that post for the curry recipe. Otherwise, you can always use any type of curry paste you have on hand, either a home made one or pre-packaged ones or even bottled ones. It doesn’t really matter.

Chicken recipes: Chicken Curry Kapitan

Chicken recipes series

Chicken Curry Kapitan is probably The Food Critic’s favourite curry since it always evoke such good memories of his granny’s wonderful nyonya food. When it comes to curry, though I have all the recipes, I’m just too lazy short of time to get all the ingredients and blend it into a paste. Heck, we have modern packaged curry pastes after all!

Anyway, we can never find a really good packaged chicken curry kapitan paste so I went to my most favourite convenient spice stall at the wet market and asked her to pack for me the . . . → Read More: Chicken recipes: Chicken Curry Kapitan

Homemade Beehoon Soup (Vermicelli Soup)

For the longest time ever, beehoon soup or vermicelli soup is one of The Food Critic’s favourite food. He eats it when he has the flu. He eats it when he is overworked. He eats it whenever he is in need of some warm comforting food. Now, I’m not much of a fan but over time (after ten years of having to eat this meal with him), I acquired some taste for it. As long as I have some chili padi to go with it, I’m fine.

Still, I don’t quite like going to the hawker stalls for a . . . → Read More: Homemade Beehoon Soup (Vermicelli Soup)

The traditional Chinese New Year Reunion Steamboat Dinner

Having a steamboat meal for the Chinese New Year reunion dinner has been one of the age-old traditions in most Chinese families. As far as I know, each and every one of our reunion dinner involved a lavish steamboat dinner complete with loads of fishballs, chicken, fish and seafood.

So, this year, it is no different in my house where we coordinated a lavish seafood steamboat dinner good enough to choke our arteries and have a steamy time. Heheh. Team the steamy steamboat with our hot and humid weather, we have our regular steam bath right in my living . . . → Read More: The traditional Chinese New Year Reunion Steamboat Dinner
