You must be wondering how this can even be possible š! But trust meā¦. the sweet and tangy taste will truly deter you away from the bitterness of the bitter gourd (karela) š.

Scrambled Tofu
This is a good alternative to egg for those who are vegan and itās a super easy and quick dish to prepare. Itās pretty much like scrambled eggs but instead of eggs, we use tofu. Or you may also use paneer and you can find my paneer bhurji recipe here. You can easily mash the…
Cauliflower and Tempeh
The recipe that I came across was originally sesame beef and broccoli and since I do not eat both, I substituted cauliflower for broccoli and tempeh for beef…š. As I love both cauliflower and tempeh, I felt that it would be a great substitute and I was not disappointed with the end result. Tempeh is…
Korean Style Spicy Tofu
Iāve not tried Korean cuisine before and the only reason I tried this out was for the two words that stood out – spicy and tofu…. ha ha. But honestly, it is not as spicy as you would expect it to be. This recipe calls for a Korean chilli paste called Gochujang and it is…

If you love tomatoes, this just may be the one for you. Itās loaded with tomatoes and goes so well with plain white rice or chappati. This was another favourite dish of my friends in the UAE and they used to request for it frequently, together with the tofu sambal and paneer bhurji. Itās really…

Kangkong Stir Fry
This is a very easy and simple dish to prepare. Kangkong is also known as Water Spinach or Morning Glory and is one of my favourite green veggie. I love the sambal kangkong that you get from the Malay stalls here, as they add belachan (shrimp paste) or the dried prawns. I made this suitable…
Sambal Goreng
Sambal Goreng is my favourite dish and it is always the first thing I choose from the wide range of cooked food served with white rice from the Malay stall at the various food courts in Singapore. Itās basically made from tofu, tempeh (fermented soya) and long beans. ‘Sambal’ is basically chilli paste and ‘Goreng’…
Karela Fry (Bitter Gourd Fry)
I donāt know if you recall reading in my blog about how Iām not a huge fan of karela (bitter gourd), but of course over the past 4 years or so, I have developed a liking for it, provided itās cooked my way and must ensure the bitterness is minimal…. ha ha! I tried to…
