Don’t know why I didn’t put down the bottle of water before snapping this picture.

Too lazy to eat out for dinner so I cleared out the fridge and made a ham & vegetable chowder….my own recipe on a whim.

Easy peasy…. fry off onions, chopped ham, sliced mushrooms, chopped snow peas and a can of flageolet beans (you can use any type of unflavoured beans) till fragrant then add stock (I used pork stock hehe) and a couple of tablespoons of shiaoxing wine.

Simmer for 5 minutes and then thicken with flour & cornflour solution.

Turn flame down, add whipping cream and season with salt and pepper.

Bring to boil and then it’s ready to serve.

Yummy.

Productive day at work. No complaints.

Was stuck in jam on the way home and was worried that dinner would be even later as I was supposed to cook.

However, I came home to a chicken and vegetables roasting in the oven.

Ahh my hubs, am a lucky girl :)

Hubs told me he researched a long time for the perfect recipe and I must say, he didn’t waste his time reading up.

It was really delicious. The chicken skin was crisp, the meat was tender and moist. Beautiful!

Then I made hokkaido chiffon cakes for dessert because the husband lovesssss them. He always buys them from our neighbourhood bakery.

It’s my 2nd time making these and I cheated by using Bird’s custard for the filling. It worked really well though.
