It’s time for more blog posts that I’ve been bookmarking around the web!
The chilli pan mee recipe from Happee Monkee looks insanely good. I love dry noodles and I do love pan mee, having made it from scratch while I was in university (I must’ve been insane). And now a chilli variant seems to have appeared recently and I want some!
A recipe for the most beautiful stecca sandwich bread can be found over at Macheesmo.
Wen at Going With My Gut has posted her family recipe for pork belly with mui choi. I tasted it at plusixfive’s supper club and lemme tell you – it’s fantastic. Go make it!
Hot & Chilli have a recipe for Brazilian brigadeiros. These Brazilian chocolate and condensed milk truffles are very sweet and very addictive.
I adore rice dishes and would never turn down a biryani or pilaff. Kavey at Kavey Eats has a recipe for a Persian baked yogurt rice with chicken while Sharmila at rice and pickle shares a recipe for a Persian raw meat biryani (where the meat is cooked in the rice). Both look insanely good.
Sambal ikan bilis (little anchovies in a spicy chilli paste) make up the filling for this Burger Malaysia over at Almost Bourdain. I probably wouldn’t call it a burger (but to be clear this seems to be the terminology used in Malaysia) but instead a very good looking sandwich.
Fatty Dumpling shares a recipe for kettle corn! I had no idea one could make kettle corn at home. If you’re not familiar with it, it’s like the sweet popcorn of this country but the sugar is more of a thin coating on each puff.
Doesn’t the congee with poached chicken slivers over at 3 hungry tummies look utterly comforting? I’ve been in need of some comforting food lately and this would surely hit the spot.
Finally, I managed to visit the Singapore Takeout while it was here for couple of days but just didn’t find the time to blog it. This initiative from Singapore sees some of their top chefs paired with chefs from around the world. In London, Janice Wong from 2am dessert bar in Singapore came with the travelling kitchen in a shipping container and paired up with local chef Peter Gordon of The Providores. My photos from the event can be seen in this Flickr photoset. If your city is here on this list (sorry, I’m almost too late for Paris – Singapore Takeout was there this past weekend!), you’re in for a treat: Moscow, New York, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Delhi, Dubai, Sydney. All dates and details of these other visits can be found on their Facebook page.

Nice links. Love the sound of Persian baked yoghurt rice with chicken. And the Brazilian brigadeiros too…

Hi May, great idea and thanks for the mention. The brigadeiros are seriously addictive. It’s a childhood favourite. See you soon Rosana

Hi Su-Lin I am going mad! Trying to catch up with all blogs and got your name wrong. Silly me. Sorry.

Su-Lin, you’re as bad as me, I’m constantly bookmarking great looking blog recipes. But I’m guilty of not making enough of them!
The Persian baked yoghurt rice with chicken is very good, a really subtle dish but wonderful. I like it very much. It’s also the one recipe on my site that most people have cooked, or at least that I know about because they’ve come back and told me, either on the blog, or on other food sites.

Ah, thanks for the link back! The biryani is a lot of effort, but so worth it. The aroma when you lift the lid of is amazing.

Hello, I just found your blog and wanted to say how much I enjoyed it. My husband and I love so many different cuisines and here I have a list of new blogs to follow. Thank you, I will continue to read yours.

Hahaha, thanks looking at this post! I hope that you make it—(almost) every time my sister and I watch a movie, she wants to make this popcorn to snack on ;]

catty: 😀 I should do it more regularly!
Robert: It all sounds too yummy, doesn’t it? I wish I had more time to cook…
Rosana: We had brigadeiros recently at a Brazilian cafe in Willesden Junction…they had a white version too, white chocolate perhaps?
Kavey: I too am guilty of not making the majority of what I bookmark. There’s just not enough time and not enough stomach space too!
Sharmila: It certainly sounded and looked amazing! Love love love biryani.
Karen: Thank you so much! I’m very glad you like it!
fattydumpling: I should have said – I did make your kettle corn! Ate half the bowlful too before I realised it…

Hi Su-Lin yes most probably if covered with white chocolate strands or might be beijinho de coco, coconut kisses, if cover with coconut shavings. These are delicious too. Have a good week. Rx
