Tuna Crackers

Picture 1 of 4

Tuna cracker is  one of the most popular appetizers/snacks for parties or events. It is always a good starter while we are hanging around waiting for the opening.  Serving with appetite wine is a good combination too.  I love to serve tuna crackers because they are easy and fun to be made – and yet, delicious. Also, the tuna cracker itself is like an art of a chef’s presentation.

Fruit Rojak (Rojak Buah)

Picture 1 of 4

Most of the time we like our fruits to be fully ripened and sweet in taste. However one of the ways I like the fresh, young and soury fruits is when they are mixed in the thick soy sauce made up with shrimp paste, cili padi (hot bird’s eye chillies) and topped with grounded peanuts. Rojak. Yes, you are right!  The Malaysian style of fruit salad or Rojak Buah gives you the whole new flavor combination of salty, sweet, sour and not forgotten the hot and spicy.

I could still remember everytime when me and my sister went to Pasar Malam (Night Market), we loved to buy a lot of snacks and Rojak is one of them that could not be left out. Both of us could never have enough of it and would always finish it in minutes.

Salt-Pepper Chicken (鹽酥雞)

Picture 1 of 4

One of my favorite snacks is Salt-pepper chicken. It is a Taiwanese style popcorn chicken. We call it Yan Su Ji (鹽酥雞) in Chinese.  Salt-pepper chicken is one of the popular snacks that can be easily found in most Taiwanese restaurant(s) or boba milk tea stations.  Thus it is always my first choice of snack whenever I hangout with friends at some local Taiwanese restaurants here in LA.

I like this Taiwanese style popcorn chicken because of the salty and peppery favor & the crispiness of it,  as well as the tenderness of the chicken meat with enough marinated juices preserved.

After a day of work, I just wanted to have a quick and easy dish. So I’ve decided to fix myself a “Cold Tofu” dish in just 10 minutes. To those of you who are busy and want things easy, you definitely have to learn how to make this dish. It is very simple, easy to prepare and good. All you need is a tofu and toppings based on your preference.
