Peri Peri Chicken Recipe (Roasted)

Kimberly Peterson

Inspired by the famous Nando’s Peri Peri Chicken, I’ve decided to do some “research” online and compiled a really easy recipe for a delicious Peri Peri Roasted Chicken.

Ingredients: 4 pieces of chicken thighs, with skin and bone 3 tsp minced garlic 2 tsp ground ginger 2 tsp chilli flakes 2 tbsp freshly chopped parsley 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil 1/2 lemon juice 1 tbsp Nando’s Hot Peri Peri … Continue reading Peri Peri Chicken Recipe (Roasted)

"Ayam Masak Merah" aka Malaysian Red Cooked Chicken Recipe

Kimberly Peterson

I was inspired to cook this dish mostly due to the recent “Eid” or “Raya Aidilfitri” festivities celebrated by the Muslims. I can so clearly remember growing up in Malaysia, whenever Raya comes around I look forward to visiting our Muslim friends at their Open House to eat the rendang, curries, and especially the lemang (traditional food originated from the Iban people in Borneo – PS my mom is Iban, therefore I am half Iban! – made of glutinous rice and coconut milk and cooked in a hollowed bamboo stick lined with banana leaves in order to prevent the rice … Continue reading "Ayam Masak Merah" aka Malaysian Red Cooked Chicken Recipe

It’s All About The Broth…

Kimberly Peterson

Recently, “The Ramen Girl” featuring the late Brittany Murphy has become one of my favorite “food” movies of all time. It’s just a lovely, fun movie about love, life and Japanese ramen. For those who are not familiar, “ramen” is a Japanese noodle dish. It is served in a meat or fish-based broth, often flavored with soy sauce or miso, and uses toppings such as sliced pork, dried seaweed, kamaboko, green onions, and occasionally corn. Almost every locality in Japan has its own variation of ramen, from the tonkotsu (pork bone broth) ramen of Kyūshū to the miso ramen of … Continue reading It’s All About The Broth…

Hawaiian Poached Chicken Recipe

Kimberly Peterson

Taken from “Everyday Cooking” published by Hinkler Books Serves 6 Last night just happened to be one of those nights when I actually chose to challenge myself quite unnecessarily. I mean, why would someone go through all that stress of rushing home from work, going to the shops to pick up some missing ingredients, cook like CRAZY knowing there’s only less than an hour to do it, and then rush off to an intense 1-hour session of Zumba on a Thursday night. I didn’t think it was possible – but thankfully this recipe has proven itself to be very suitable … Continue reading Hawaiian Poached Chicken Recipe

Kimberly Peterson

Original Recipe by Kimba’s Kitchen One fine night, as I was preparing to cook a simple omelette for dinner, I’ve decided to change my plans and try something new. I’ve decided to add some coconut milk into the egg mixture that I’ve originally started whisking to form an omelette mix… and then I’ve decided to add some flour into it and some salt and sugar and fish sauce and it started forming this really smooth batter. I thought brilliant – I’ve made a pretty decent tasting “pancake” mixture. So I thought about what I was going to do with this … Continue reading Kimba’s Pancake Recipe
