Recipes! *8=p....
Welcome to my recipes page. I cook by estimation rather than by measurements, so the measurements given may be a little off. The dishes in each section are listed (roughly) in the order of chicken, pork, seafood and vegetable.
Dishes containing pork and pork products are marked (P).

Malay/Peranakan
Malay and Peranakan cuisine is, in my opinion, the king of all cuisines. Nothing any fine dining restaurant serves can top the intricate flavours of a Peranakan or Malay meal! They can be a little challenging and time-consuming to put together though. I prefer the more Malay types of Peranakan food. Here I've left out classics like Ayam Buah Keluak, Babi Pongtay, Hati Babi Bungkus, Itek Sio and Itek Tim, largely because they're too much trouble. Perhaps another time, yah?
