I have a blood test tomorrow and my doctor advised me to do fasting before the blood test. I don’t have any medical knowledge so I will just follow what she said lol. The only thing I can have until my blood test is water. So here’s my 3 course meal (naming got assisted by chat GPT)

Welcoming drink - Aotearoa (tap) water

Appetiser - Frozen Quartet, basically 4 ice 🧊

Main - Consommé de Glace (A clear broth of water with charred ice, served as it slowly transforms).
Btw, I blow torched this one ☺️

Dessert - Glace Brûlée (Burnt Ice), I blow torched this for 10 seconds for glossiness 🤣

Bon appétit

P.S. I had my last snack at 6pm and gonna go to the test first thing in the morning LOL

Idea was from u/iamteddykim on r/cookingforone

Burger is classic because I had to eat vege soup which my mum made few days ago and I forgot to eat them hahah

Meat pattie was with bulgogi sauce and happened to have a love heart shape. I seem to be very romantic but why am I single? 😝

Anyways, happy friday ❤️

First time making pho. No coriander and lemon coz I don’t eat them lol

Unusual combination and international hahahhaa

My colleague always makes dish using cured pork but his one tastes way better than mine HAHAHHAH

Mum made the vege soup. Idk the recipe

Auntie dai better sponsor me since I post auntie dai dumplings post very often (jks)

Sausages were jalapeno and cheese from paknsave. It was pretty good. But it wasn’t spicy enough so I put some chilli flakes in my fried rice

Happy monday!

No pics last night coz I went out for dinner

No time for pan fry the pork belly so i air fried. How would I live without an air fryer

Happy weekends

Threw every leftover thing in my fridge

Kimchi stew - probs one week old from my mum’s cooking. I forgot when I got it from her
Turks frankurter sausages - my fav. No negotiations
Pork belly
Baked beans - bought from woolworth when they did promotion on “buy 3 of watties products and get instant price”. Didn’t win any lol
Dasida - compulsory

Had to put what budaejjigae is coz it looks….questionable lol

Double eggs for double happiness

Who said making pretty dumplings lead to having pretty babies.

Im not gonna believe in myths anymore 😂

Happy days!

It’s really easy. All you need is to wait until your friends serve you the food 😘

Recipe source (according to my friend) https://www.marthastewart.com/329027/linguine-with-lemon-cream-sauce

Salad, (too much water) rice, pork belly with leek, onion and chilli

Rumi (parnell, auckland) is such a good place and I think a lot of people go there as a dating spot but I went with humans from r/aucklandeats. No flirting involved (?).

Anyways, the food from rumi was really good. It was my first time trying persian food and I really loved it as a tmi I dated with Persian once and they never took me to try persian food. Sad lol.

I recreated the dish and made a salad that was from rumi’s menu but never tried lol. The salad was cucumber, red onion, tomato, dill tips, olive oil and garlic powder

Meat was lamb chops and steak. I forgot to buy persian style bread so I just got buns from bakers delight

Again, highly recommend rumi if you are in Auckland!

Damn, forgot to take proper pics but here’s what I cooked today

Breakfast - udon noodles with dumplings that I bought from highland paknsave. It’s prawn soup dumplings and it’s quite nice.

Lunch - but it’s bulgogi with udon noodles and leftover dumplings from breakfast. Forgot to take a pic with container but imagine the second pic with more noodles hahah

It’s cold so I need some soup (even though I have been having soup for more than 4 days in a row)

Anyways, udon has chicken katsu, prawn and cabbage (to be healthy)

Rice is from my colleague and idk what she made lol. Tastes like sticky rice from yumcha

It’s supposed to look like a fried chicken. Yes I know it looks so depressing lol

I usually get fried chicken from my fav fried chicken place around public holidays but im too broke this month.

Dw, I have money for Rumi for this weekend. See you some people who RSVP’d

I think I got into gochujang based sauces now so I made dakgalbi (basically gochujang paste and chicken)

And leftover pork bone soup (gamjatang)

I live for me myself and I and I ended up making 1 massive pot worth of gamjatang. LMAO

I was just craving for ribs which my mum made for me on the other day. I made the replica

Pressure cooked the ribs, put sauces and quickly braised it lol

Gonna make gamjatang with the broth for tonight ☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️

Happy monday people lol

You all posted fancy dinner for tonight but im going classic lol.

I burnt my cheese initially so I took it out and replaced with another one 😂
