I'm a full time student and I also work but I love to cook delicious and healthy meals for my boyfriend and family. I'm used to be all about Asian food because of the influence from my mom but that has changed because I want to experience all the different style of cooking! =) Nothing feels better than making a meal for someone and see the expression on their face when they're really enjoying it! =)
My favorite things to cook
I LOVE LOVE LOVE steak and salmon so I would say that they're my favorite things to cook. I also love rice and noodles so I try to incorporate the ingredients around that.. I also love to bake even though I'm not a sweet person, so I ended up giving it all to my boyfriend or friends.. =P
My favorite family cooking traditions
Growing up with my mom and aunt, they would always stir-fry everything like fish, chicken, pork, beef and serve it with rice. They would marinade it differently each time though and would almost always serve the meal with soup. It still is the best comfort meal for me... kinda like hot chicken soup when I'm sick. =D
My cooking triumphs
I pulled off a Thanksgiving dinner this year all by myself. =) Although I almost break my back trying to insert the turkey in the oven. hahaha.. good memories though.. =)
