ive been losing a lot of interest in things lately and one of them is food
which really breaks my heart because i LOVE food :-(

so im making myself cook more and hopefully reignite this passion?
this'll be the thread where i post things i cook

made kimchi jjigae the other day and it wasnt the best but i think its because my kimchi wasnt sour enough ahaha

will try again!!

today’s lunch!!!
(and dinner bc i made too much ahaha)

put in a ton of basil from my garden because they’ve been growing really well lately

made kimchi fried rice with an egg!!
trying to use up more gochujang and ended up making it super spicy ahaha but it’s still yummy!

today i made veggie gyozas from scratch!!
fried them too and they’re good~ next time i’m gonna add ginger maybe for more kick

udon and gyoza!
gyozas are instant and not handmade this time tho haha

the udon cooks really fast but thanks for watching the short stream if u did

maybe next time i’ll stream while making the gyoza

baked scones!
they’re a bit thicc but i’m ok with that!

also.. my sister and i are lactose intolerant LMAO and yet this is our breakfast for the day

made veggie tofu soup and some grilled saba on the side !

ok tbh my friend cooked most of this one because i got distracted by the cats

a lazy dinner

grilled garlic salmon with salad and pita bread~ and tub guacamole

Garlic cream pasta with mushroom, broccoli and basil

vague cooking instructions (idk how much i used exactly ):
- fry garlic in olive oil
- stir in butter
- add cooking cream, salt and pepper
- add pasta and boiled ingredients, mix on low heat
- serve with chopped basil

made dinner while mama cleaned!

TIP make a ton of gyoza and freeze it so you can have homemade gyoza whenever~

also made agedashi tofu! THIS IS ONLY THE SECOND TIME I MANAGED TO MAKE IT SO WELL

it’s actually a SUPER easy recipe, it’s just Cornflour and the tofu, fried bUT-

it kept breaking until i realised YOU HAD TO USE JAPANESE CORNFLOUR 片栗粉 it’s apparently not the same...

if anyone wants to make it make sure to remember this!! it will save you a lot of heartbreak over your tofu breaking apart

banana avocado yoghurt smoothie ft. toothless

no time to breathe let alone cook lately but the colour variation and textures in my scrambled eggs on toast this morning made me happy

ft. my jimin mug

i forgot to eat breakfast and lunch so i guess i made... Linner?

> Tamagoyaki (Egg Roll) with miso
> Pumpkin Carrot Onion soup
> Salad + Mango
> Soft Bun

(baked successful soft buns with the BEST texture i’m proud of my edible sons)

made mac and cheese for dinner with friends!!
my main goal was to clear out all the cheese in my fridge so i put in brie as well and it was so good

i made pasta and carrot pumpkin purée

forgot i still had left over dumplings that i made from lunch hehe

kimchi + dumplings = kimchi dumplings

i made curry !!! and the deep greens on my rice looked cute so hehe

somehow my curry turned out rly sweet ? hm not sure why

pancakes for breakfast this morning !!!!! ╭( ･ㅂ･)و ̑̑

repurposed pancakes for lunch heh ,, topped with sliced beef and salad + garlic dollops ( ´∀｀)

i baked matcha roll cake !! ♪(๑ᴖ◡ᴖ๑)♪

it got squished and broke when i put it in the fridge tho LOL and it’s a bit too dense i probably over mixed T_T
it’s been too long since i baked,, i should get back to baking more esp during this time hahaha

made an effort to bring out all the pretty plates and arrange my dinner rly nicely tonight haha

been a while since i made teriyaki salmon so it tasted extra yummy

then made udon after bc felt like something was missing heh

昨日から無性にバナナパンが食べたいから..... 作りましたうふふ

this morning’s accomplishments: made banana bread !!!!

mom requested a ~fancy tea time~ so we made some scones together

made some 蒜板 with mom for grandma to wish her happy mother’s day,, and also made some nom ka chai (cambodian chive cakes) as per my sister’s request haha

they’re not !!! the prettiest bc we suck HAHA but they taste yummy so that’s a relief ;0;

a voice whispered in my ear “sister can you make cookies” so i made cookies

needed to get all that work stress out from a particularly tough day....... in the form of a fluffy earl grey sponge cake ;~;

was supposed to steep the tea overnight to have a richer tea taste but i wanted the cake NOW lol,, but otherwise it turned out rly good !!! ٩(^‿^)۶

i made kimchi pancakes and holy CRAP THEYRE VERY VERY GOOD ??? i shocked myself ?? they’re like chewy and flavourful and not greasy wow i’m truly PROUD of this one

tried adjusting some parts of my cookie recipe; they turned out good!but a bit too different LOL gotta be patient n make smol adjustments

personal notes for future improvements:
- reduce sugar
- substitute more bread flour for APF
- smaller salt crystals
- top setting 12 mins

beef stir fry, kailan and tamagoyakiiiiiiiiiiii fast fast dinner wew
didn’t have enough chicken so couldn’t make stew lol

looks like a normal chocolate chip butter cake but is actually an advocaat cake ,,
once again requested by my sister bc she bought a whole bottle lmao

i have perfected my cookies

some reviews -
sister: 10/10!!!! 10/10!!! sell them!!
