Teochew Noodles 潮州面条
I originally bought these flat yellow noodles because I wanted to cook KL-Style Hokkien Mee. I decided instead to cook a much simpler dish of Teochew dry noodles. These noodles were easy to prepare but so very full of flavour, with fragrant dried shrimps, crunchy bean sprouts, spring onions and must-have fish sauce bringing simplicity to the next level. *Tip: You can also add fishballs ala fishball noodles! And if you wish, add just a bit of sambal and mix well for a more spicy kick.

Healthier Version: Easy Sardines with tomatoes, onions, and reduced gravy
Today is a lazy day and I just prepared sardines and vegetable soup for lunch. Preparation and cooking took me a total of 15 minutes and food was on the table. Most of you know I don’t normally use canned food, but if there’s one I approve of, it is sardines. Sardines are high in omega 3 fatty acids which can lower triglycerides and cholesterol levels, and can in turn support cardiovascular health. It is also rich in Vitamin D to promote bone health, and is packed with protein. What an amazing food!
