About this Cook
I am a busy medical student who subsists on PB&J lunch and dinner for most of the week. On weekends I like to go all out and try exciting recipes. Unfortunately for my test tasting partner, I modify every recipe to omit the oil and most of the salt. Hey, I think healthy tastes good!
My favorite things to cook
I love spices of all kinds, and am always trying to experiment with different curries.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Being a vegetarian, I had to leave behind most of my Chinese cooking traditions. However, I still love the large variety of dishes in every Chinese meal.

Tiramisu Layer Cake
Simply put, this was incredible. It took me two tries to get it right- the first attempt at making two layers of cake crumbled into a cakey diasater, but it was worth the extra effort! I made it for a friend's birthday and she was delighted. I did double the coffee and kahlua, and the flavor was still quite subtle. Delicious!

Apricot Tea Cookies
Delicious! This is my third time making these! The first two times I made them I used chopped apricots, but I took a short cut the third time and used apricot jam. I found the cookie to be a little bland the third time- I even added a little lime juice to the glaze mixture, but I think it still meeds more tang. Next time I will add lime juice to the apricot jam mixture as well.
