About Me

My photo
I´m a foodie who lives to eat. A Singaporean living in the heart of Jakarta. My food blog started because I could never remember my recipes back when we travelled back and forth from here and Singapore...and I´m terrible at keeping folders! So this was my savior. I still rely on this blog to cook so just know that the recipes here are all tried and tested!

Mee Rebus Jawa

I've always loved my Mama's Mee Rebus.. It's labourous work and store bought ones are never the same. So I asked her for the recipe and this is what she sent! 

So before I lose it, this is the recipe from 30 years ago...
As you can see.. Back then we can still buy daging for 70 cents!

Soft Chocolate Chunk Cookies


Super simple cookies but really yummy if you like "soft" cookies

Cream butter and sugar until creamy.

120g unsalted butter
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 egg
1/2 tsp vanilla essence 

Add egg and vanilla essence into the butter and cream until light and fluffy.

In another bowl, sift the following ingredients and add to the butter mixture.

1 3/4 cups flour
3/4 tsp salt
3/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda

1 - 1 1/2 cup chopped baking chocolate (chopped into chunks) or you can use chocolate chips.

Fold in the chocolate chunks. Cover cookie dough with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for 2 hours. 


Scoop using ice cream scoop for large cookies or I rolled golf balls size dough and placed them 2 inches apart on a parchment-lined tray.

Bake for 16-17 minutes on 180 degrees oven.

 Remove from tray and let cool on wire rack. I like eating my soft cookie warm with a glass of cold milk!
