Baby Kailan with (Vegetarian) Oyster Sauce

Another simple dish that can be cooked in 3 mins!

Just remember to get baby kailan so save you the trouble to pluck and cut the vegetable. Just wash and stir-fry :)


Ingredients:
- Baby Kailan
- Vegetarian Oyster Sauce
- Minced garlic

For health reason, I have stoped using the 'real' oyster sauce. The vegetarian one is just as good. I've tried other brands but finally settled with Won Hup Vegetarian oyster sauce as this once does not have a very strong mushroom smell and more acceptable by my kids :)

Noodles with Dumplings in Beef Soup

Another dish I cooked over the night using my thermal pot. I boiled the soup at 11pm and reboil the soup again at 6 am. The noodles and dumplings are cooked separately after I came back from work.

My kids loved this very much as it has all their favourites in 1 dish: Soup, noodles and dumplings. Simple dish that can be prepared in 15 mins :)
Ingredients (for 4 persons)
- 300g Beef cubes (suitable for stew)
- 1 big onions (either cut into quarters or slice it)
- 1 medium carrot
- 1 medium potato
- 6 bowls of water

Steps:
- Boil the water in the stainless steel container (of the thermal pot)
- Add all ingredients into the boiling water
- Boil for 10 mins and transfer the container to the thermal pot

Peanut Soup with Lotus Roots

This is one of my favourite. Tasty yet easy to cook :0
I've used the thermal pot to cook, hence, steps are the same as all my other soup recipes :)

Ingredients:
  • 3/4 bowl of peanuts (I wanted more taste so added more)
  • 300g of pork ribs (and meatballs for my kids)
  • Lotus Roots (amount depends on how much you love them)
  • 10 seedless red dates
  • 4 bowls of water

Potato with Minced Beef

Another simple beef dish with no seasoning added and can be prepared in 8 mins....

Ingredients:
  • Minced beef (can season with sesame oil, pepper & soya sauce for a stronger taste)
  • potato (cubed)

No special steps....just stir-fry the potato a little before putting in the beef. Nice with minced chicken too :)
