All about Tomyam


Most of the time, most of us only use tomyam paste in tomyam soup. What else can we do with tomyam paste?. I love to use tomyam paste in my fried noodle (vermicelli) and fried rice. The taste of these dishes are wonderful.

Continental Cakes

I started baking at a very young age (in my primary years). I followed my mom who taught the kampung ladies cooking in their association. I wrote down recipes that my mom taught and learned in their classes. At 9 years old I can bake my own biscuits. During Eid I helped my mom to prepare the food (biscuits, cakes and dishes). When I went to my secondary years and stayed in the hostel, I bake my own biscuits, cakes and delicacies every time I went home over the school holiday to bring them back to the hostel. I love trying and experimenting new recipes and food creations. I went to baking class to learn the professional technique and tactics of baking (especially modern one). Family and friends love what I prepared for them. Order for cakes and my homemade delicacies started to pour in and alhamdulillah my passion now has give me return.
