The Little Chef

I decided to create this blog to share my ideas about cooking and food industry. I love to eat and cook but then time and career as a professional has equipped me to freeze my noble interest. Thanks to the inspiration given to me by my mother. When she died, I had a realization that it is now my responsibility to relive the moments of her cooking days. No one else would cook our favorite pasta such as spaghetti and carbonara, noodle meals such as pancit palabok and pancit malabon, steamed fish and relyenong bangus, liempo, leche flan, bread pudding, pichi-pichi, siopao, siomai, rice cakes, cup cakes, buco pandan, fruit salad, fresh salad, hearty and munchy sandwhiches, menudo, caldereta, lengua, paella and so many more dishes that seems to be never ending!

This realization started during her wake. We cannot decide what to prepare for our guests. We had no choice but to go to the grocery, spend 10,000plus per day for the food and serve only but cupcakes, noodles and biscuits. As her children, we realized, this is not what our mother serves our guests. My mom has been a very good host and she never fails in every ocassion. So from that day on, we realize we had to prepare something else. My husband and I started making sandwiches for the guests, microwaved food for breakfast, lunch and dinner, which primarily is for the family members present during the wake and fruit salad for desert. But the microwaved food didn't turn out to be like microwaved food. It was like, professionally done just like what my mom did and so we said as a couple, this is it! We have to continue the legacy.

Fortunately, these days we have been accepting orders of relyeno (stuffed fish) and is doing very well. Pasta meals such as carbonaras, pesto and spaghetti is a win-win prophecy for those who would like affordable food served during birthdays and mini parties. Rice meals is also a hit! We are now in the process of creating new stuff and recipes for rice meals. Pastries such as cup cakes and mini cakes in carrot flavor, chocolate and mocha has been a favorite of kids during celebrations. Leche flan, bread pudding and fruit salad has become an addictive delicacy for our friends and relatives during celecrations. The food business that my mother has opened for us, created not just doors but windows too! It has not just created business for our family but also has given me the opportunity to continue the legacy and create the little chef in me. :)

Tender Juicy Hotdogs

I woke up early this morning to breakfast for the family.  Our helpers have been utilizing their week long day off and as a mom, I got no other choice but to be on a complete mommy mode.  I was supposed to cook pancakes for the kids but then my eldest daughter woke up and said she wants some hotdogs and eggs for breakfast.  So its the hotdog syndrome again! Have you ever wondered how to make a very good and juicy hotdog for breakfast? Simple yet...
amazingly easy.  Ever wonder why kids would love to buy hotdogs in the hotdog stand but would never ever want to eat those hotdogs you served for breakfast? Well worry no more.  Just follow these easy steps and everything will be just like from that hotdog stand!

Things you need:
1 tbsp of water
1tbsp of cooking oil
250g of hotdogs (peeled)

1. Peel of the hotdogs and clean well.
2. In a cooking pan, put the hotdogs with 1 tbsp of water in a low set fire.
3. Wait for a few minutes or until the water is absorbed by the hotdogs.
4.  Put the cooking oil in the fan and fry the hotdogs for just 1 minute.
5. Serve while it is still tender and juicy!
