STF Reunion : D

The origin of this site's name: Share The Food --
also known as STF --
first came about as a playful suggestion by Goh goh...

Back in July 2006, i wrote my very first song,
and entered a song writing competition.
To perform the song in the finals,
i got goh goh to play guitar,
and Christen to play violin ; )
STF became our (unofficial) band name,
and it signifies our special bond : D

Last week, we invited Christen & Joy over for dinner,
but unfortunately, Joy was sick : (
Hence, it ended up being a STF Re-U!



Yup! This depicts our normal role:
Me cook, he washes dishes : D

For this special occasion, i decided to...
do some more cooking experiments : b haha...

This meal contains:

- Boiled Potatoes



Peeled ; )



Sliced!



Mixed in Mushrooms / Minced Pork...
TAAA DAAA! Chinese Mashed Potatoes : )
No butter, but oyster sauce instead!



- Thin Sliced Pork Chops marinated in OJ overnight
(Inspired by my experiment with the OJ chicken)



Laid out flat on the foil



Added dabs of BBQ sauce + Honey : )



After they came out of the oven,
i added ketchup, too ; )



- Stir fried Spinach + Diced Ham : )




Yippeeee! Mo + Ko


& CMS + HLN : b




I wasn't feeling too fancy that day,
so i just cheated and made HK style Mango Pudding.



Stuck in the fridge for a couple of hours...



Served with Orange Creamsicle -- Citrus-y & refreshing! : )



Such was a beautiful night filled with
wonderful conversations & satisfied stomachs ; )

YAYYYYYYY to STF!

Mac n' Cheese Casserole

Guess what Goh goh made the other day? : D
This is one of his FAVORITES... with a new twist ; )



Taaaaa Daaaaaa!



Cooked mac & cheese +
fried onions +
diced ham : )

Hearty & wonderful for this chillin' weather! ; )

Deboning Session

We caught Zach in action again...
HAVING A FEAST eh, little buddy? : )

Yes, we created these BONELESS monsters again...
as requested by the Chins : )


Although, this time --
i hosted a deboning session with 2 participants--

Student #1. Donna


She's dicing some tilapia, which we were going to use
to stuff the chicken wings : )


TAAA DAAAA! Such a beautiful sight... *_*
I then, proceeded to marinate them with:
sea salt, white pepper, lime juice, garlic, rosemary...


Stuffing #2: Marinated Minced Pork with Mushrooms
(Marinated with: salt, black pepper, sesame oil...)


YAY! There you see Student #2, Nick!


According to Nick, deboning chicken wings
make his hands 'Chickeny';
& he called this thumb-in-wing action "Chicken Finger."


There, you see us putting Chef Nick at (more) work,
dicing up the mushrooms : )
This boy is growing up to be ladies' ideal man!


Meanwhile, Donna's friend Nancy came by,
and made very yummy guacamole *_*

i wonder if i can find a way to stuff chicken wings
with guac one day... that'd be something i can eat ALL DAY!

These are worth 2 hrs of hard work yo!!
(Totaling over 70 wings!)


After that, Donna had more fun with some chicken breasts...
Fajita in the making : )


Meanwhile, i sauteed the minced pork with the mushrooms.
Note: They're not fully cooked!
I just cooked them to about 70% done.

Then, we sauteed the fish also,
let them cool a lil bit,
then start stuffing! : )


Left: Minced pork/mushrooms;
Right: Apple / ham.


Goh goh seemed quite troubled,
when Donna suggested him to don an apron.


Pan-fried goodness : D

MMmmmmmMMm... O-I-L-Y.




A close-up shot of the apple & ham wings : )

After adding honey & bbq sauce,
they're put into the oven,
then transformed into these juicy, crispy beauties!



Yeahhhhhh! Such was our perfect Sunday dinner
with the company of friends & families! LOVELY! : )
