香菇薑絲燴汁蒸魚 Steamed Fish in Braised Shiitake Mushrooms Sauce


我一星期煮的飯菜中,起碼有三餐都會是魚。
向來我都喜歡用最簡單的方法泡製,盡量保持魚的鮮味。

In the weekly family meals that I made over the years, I would always include fish at least 3 times a week. I used the simplest  method to cook it, trying hard to retain the unspoiled freshness and flavour of the fish.

自家製營養豆腐花 Homemade Nutritious Soya Milk Jelly


小時各種在街頭或路邊小店賣的甜品中,我最喜歡豆腐花。長大出來做事後,在外面與朋友吃飯時,碰巧那酒樓飯店有豆腐花在餐牌上的,我也一定會點來作飯後甜品。婚後每次回港,也要尋訪三两間做得出色的,吃過了才覺滿意。

When I was a child, among all the sweet things they sold in the street stalls or little pudding shops, I loved " Tofu fa" - Bean curd custard - the most.  When I grew up and started working, every time  I ate out with friends or colleagues, if the restaurants had got "Tofu fa" on the dessert menu, I would definitely choose it.  After I got married, each time we went back to Hong Kong, I usually sought out a few places which made the best version of my favourite pudding..

自家製芒果酸奶冰淇淋 Homemade Mango Frozen Yogurt Ice-cream


昨天是香港和很多個國家的母親節,身居英國的我們今年在三月已慶祝了這兒的 'Mothering Sunday'。但在香港長大的我,在這一天對母親自是倍覺思念。

Yesterday was Mother's Day in Hong Kong and for a lot of other countries in the world. Here in the UK we already celebrated the Mothering Sunday in March. As I grew up in Hong Kong, this June Mother's Day means a lot more to me, and so on this day I think about and miss my mother a lot more.

蒜蓉辣椒粉烤馬鮫魚 Roasted Mackerel with Garlic and Paprika


我們全家人都愛吃魚和海產。但近年來由於世界各地很多人工飼養魚場生產帶有化學品毒素和環境污染的魚和海鮮。我自己的家人和朋友都曾因為吃過這樣的海鮮如鱸魚、貽貝、蝦和鯰魚等之後感到不適和嘔吐不止。

We've always loved eating fish and seafood. But in recent years the cultivation and farming of fish and seafood in some parts of the world have produced chemically poisoned and environmentally polluted fish and seafood. Unfortunately with personal experiences from my own family and friends, sometimes such contaminated fish or seafood can be found in bass, mussels, prawns, river cobblers etc., caused or triggered off allergy like reactions, making us violently sick and feeling ill.
