How to make rice taste more interesting

By Foong, on November 8th, 2008%

Why, you fry it, of course!

Fried rice is as common as it is everywhere when you eat outside and you can do it at home too. Don’t need to fork our RM3.50 for a measly plate of rice outside with little ingredients and sometimes, lousy taste.

Here’s what I do when I felt like adding some jazz to our plain steamed rice with whatever ingredients I could rustle up in the kitchen.

Chicken and Beans Rice Recipe for a healthy, complete meal

By Foong, on October 25th, 2008%

My son simply must have his rice everyday, at least, for one meal and other meals, it could be noodles, porridge or potatoes.

So, instead of cooking the usual plain white rice to go with dishes, I’d sometimes cook an all-in-one rice like my mixed beans rice or burdock root rice or easy claypot chicken rice. Yep, when it comes to rice, I do try to do more things with it!

Here’s my latest ‘creation’ where I toss in some bottled organic black bean chili sauce to give it a slightly spicy flavour:

Easy claypot chicken rice

By Foong, on August 21st, 2008%

Claypot chicken rice is one of the first few ‘all-in-one’ dishes I learned to made when I first started cooking years ago. It is actually pretty easy to make and though the name is ‘claypot chicken rice’, you don’t necessarily need to use claypot to cook it. You can also use the microwave or the rice cooker.

Claypot Chicken Rice

Here’s the recipe for:

Claypot Chicken Rice

Ingredients

300g rice, washed and drained

250gm chicken, chopped into small pieces or preferably sliced deboned chicken breast meat

1 chinese sausage, sliced (optional)

2 pieces boneless salted fish (about 20g)

Kim Gary Restaurant at Gurney Plaza

By Foong, on May 17th, 2008%

I have been to Kim Gary Restaurant at Gurney Plaza several times and since I loved most of the food there, I thought I might as well mention it here. So, we went there again for Mothers’ Day celebration and ordered quite a lot of different food from the extensive menu.

What I like about this restaurant is that they offer quite a lot of variety from different types of rice to noodles. Now, they even have snacks and starters.

So, we ordered 1 bite snack drumsticks, broccoli in white sauce, chicken chop . . . → Read More: Kim Gary Restaurant at Gurney Plaza
