Today I am posting Yam or Taro rice. It is a popular savory rice dish with Malaysian Chinese. The rice is cooked with yam, dried shrimps, shallots, and Pandanus leaves. It is very important to use long grain rice so that the rice cooks to perfect fluffiness. So, do try the recipe and I hope you will like it.

Welcome to my new Garden to Table series, where I will be showcasing a number of delicious recipes with ingredients used from my garden. I started my little vegetable garden last Fall, and whilst it has its challenges, I very much enjoyed learning and seeing my empty garden bloom into what it is today! Although my garden may be small, I’ve somehow managed to pack it full with all different kinds of delicious edibles and flowers (they’re used as both insect deterrents and pollinators!) I hope to inspire those who are looking to start a garden but are limited by space, and of course, share recipes made from the day’s pickings!

This is my version of the Braised Meat Over Rice, or also known as Lu Rou Fan, in Taiwan. This popular Chinese styled braised pork recipe is very delicious and addictive.

So, do give this recipe a try and enjoy!

This delicious sweet and sour fish will have your family asking for more. The combination of the deep-fried halibut fillets, and the slightly sweet, spicy, and tangy sauce is a perfect combination and delicious with a bowl of hot steamed rice. Note: *The sauce will continue to thicken once the fish is added. *If you are going to serve the dish later, then mix in the fried fish just before serving.
