There's nothing like diving into a juicy culinary adventure, especially when you're a bit of a novice cook like me! Experimenting with new recipes can be such a delightful adventure for taste buds and palate, even if they may not always turn out picture perfect.
I've recently started playing around with some spice combinations, inspired by the aromatic cuisines of the Middle East. The warmth of cinnamon and cardamom, the kick of chili flakes and the earthy notes of cumin seeds have been my recent obsessions. They're so fragrant and really take simple dishes to another level. I'm especially loving Moroccan cuisine at the moment - the flavors are incredibly vibrant and lively.
Also, as a busy mom with a young child, I've become quite the whiz with my instant pot! It's an absolute godsend for quick, one-pot meals that are flavorful and hassle-free. I can throw in all the ingredients and let it do its magic while I tend to my son or sneaked in some workout time.
Some of my other kitchen must-haves are my cast iron pan, which gives my dishes a lovely crispy finish, and my mortar and pestle for when I want to prepare paste and spices from scratch. There's something quite therapeutic about pounding those spices and aromatics.
When it comes to eateries, I'm always on the lookout for quaint cafes and hole-in-the-wall spots that serve up tasty, crave-worthy dishes. Singapore has plenty of those hidden gems, especially along our bustling hawker centers. You'll never guess the deliciousness you can find in some of these casual stalls!
What about you all? Any tasty discoveries or kitchen must-haves you're loving right now? I'd love to hear about your culinary adventures too!
