Hot Braised String Beans


This is my best attempt at trying to make Hot Braised String Beans. It kinda looks too healthy to be Hot Braised hehe. Did you know that the typical Hot Braised Strings Beans aren't very healthy? That's cuz to make it, you have to first deep fry the beans and then stir fry it -- GREASY. Anything deep fried is, in my opinion, unhealthy! This is the healthier version of it. To be honest, it wasn't that good, kinda bland.


Baby Corn and Tofu with Cashew


This is made from a recipe in Nancie McDermott's cookbook, The Real Vegetarian Thai. It was yummy but oh so spicy!!!

mmm......yummmy thai noodle dish!


I love trying out a new recipe. Tonight, it was vegetarian Paht-see-yu (pan fried rice noodles with broccoli and mushrooms) from my newly bought cookbook, Real Vegetarian Thai by Nancie McDermott. It was mmmmm yummy! The only thing I changed was not putting in the eggs as directed. Nope, no eggs, boycotting eggs remember? Oh and, ummm being a fan of spicy stuff, I added a Thai chili pepper hehe. It turned out really well. This is one recipe that I will make again!
