    Yes, I do hammer the meat to make it tender. You have a great day too!

    I used 'Mui yoke' or there's another 'Kar Mui yoke', those parts are very tender.

    I used Kikkoman teriyaki marinade. You can go to this post, I've got a picture of the marinade.

    Ya, it's tender, depending of which part of pork you use.

    Pairs well with rice and bread too!

    If you use the fillet, hammer to tenderise it, it won't be coarse.

    Normally they'll give you the 'yoke ngan'which by right is for pork chop, and has a better taste but tough. I asked for
    'mui yoke' or 'kar mui yoke' which is pork fillet and it's soft. Hope this helps!

  18. Hi,just check with u, if i can use the teriyaki sauce to season salmon. I wanted to pan fried salmon, using teriyaki sauce?
    Thanks!

    Yup, you can do that. Just marinate the salmon with some teriyaki sauce and set it aside for a while. Then pan fry it but not too long, otherwise the salmon becomes tough.

  20. Thanks! I never cook Salmon before but my girl had been asking for it. Will cook and let u know.

Mini lime marmalade chiffon cake

These little chiffon cupcakes were made with lime marmalade.  Other than orange marmalade I've never come across lime marmalade and so this went into my shopping basket when I was in Perth last.  It's slightly more sour than orange marmalade but it's delicious when you have it with butter or peanut butter slathered on a slice of freshly baked bread or toast!

Kai Chai Paeng aka Little chicken biscuit

K ai Chai Paeng or 'Little chicken biscuit' was one of my father's favourite item to take away whenever we stopped by Bidor, a small town south of Ipoh on the way to Kuala Lumpur, long ago before the North-South Highway came into existence.  Those days, Bidor's famous restaurant, Pun Chun ,was like a half-way house whereby travellers would stop by for their signature 'Ngap thui meen' or duck thigh noodles. Pun Chun restaurant is right in the middle of town along the main road and has been in operation for 70 years and their Kai Chai Paeng were of the thick, doughy type made with lard and some pork but now they also have the thin and crispy version. Another small town, known as Kampar which is nearer to Ipoh is also famous for their thin and crispy version of  Kai Chai Paeng.  However,  I'm not too sure which town is the originator of these 'chickenless', unique but absolutely aromatic 'Little chicken biscuit'.

Braised Pork Ribs with Yam & Wood ear fungus

I bought this yam/taro from a wet market and the lady assured me that her yams are creamy when cooked.  She cut off a very small piece to justify her statement and true enough I saw some powdery substance on the knife.  It can be very frustrating when you end up getting a yam that's firm even when cooked for yams have a hardy taste with a minimal amount of sweetness.  But if you pair it up with some meat and fermented bean curd, the dish will be transformed into a tasty delicacy.
