  • Video a Go-Go

    Last weekend the gurl and I made a trek up to KL to get well our ‘unofficial’ pre-wedding photos taken. Unofficial in terms of we not donning the wedding dress and monkey suit and traipsing  around having posed photos.  Instead we being we decided on doing a very informal shoot doing what we love best.. cooking! It was food that really brought us together, so what better way of exemplifying that by capturing in essence what we are really all about.

    Thus with recipes in hand and a ‘have fun’ attitude we went about cooking up a storm in the kitchen.  With our photographer Zach Chin (www.zachchin.com) on hand to record our tom foolery (with Ben Lim in tow www.benjaminlim.net) we had a ball cooking for them and ourselves.  A big shout out too to my soon to be wedding ‘brother’ May Yee for being on hand to help out as well!

    Actually we weren’t expecting this.. when we saw it we were just taken back, thanks Zach for compiling this for the both of us.. now you know why I love cooking!

    I really cannot wait to see the stills both Zach and Ben took during the course of their two course lunch.. but if the video is any bench mark.. I’m waiting with baited breath!

    So without further adieu here’s our informal video of us @ play in the kitchen!

    Sidney & Stefanii - The recipe of love from Zach Chin on Vimeo.

    “Sidney and Stefanii love to cook. With two ounces of cooking skills, few teaspoons of fun, one big tablespoon filled with love, many pinches of laughter and finally a whole kitchen to clean, we really had fun shooting for them. And in return, we get to eat their "yummylicious" food (thank God we are still in piece after witnessing the food flying all over the kitchen floor). Thanks to Ben for his assistance on that day as well.

    And thanks to them I get to learn how to make tiramisu - the easy way, :D.

    So, in return, here is the video clip which I have prepared for you guys.”

  • A Busy Weekend of Pasta and Chocolate!

    Last weekend went by with a flurry; the new KitchenAid has really seemed to have given me a huge kick on the cooking backside! I found myself spending the weekend cooking away (with the help of the Chili Padi & my proxy little sista).

    Agio Olio Pasta with Steak

    Over the course of 48 hours we managed to make a whole new batch of Angel Hair and Fettuccine pasta; with that saw each of us grabbing a handful of yummy pasta and creating our own meal for dinner. The two girls managed to make themselves some Japanese pasta sauce, while I on the other hand decided to make my new default dish (the thing you cook when you really cannot think of what to cook): Aglio Olio Fettuccine with Seared Steak.

    Chocolate Chip Espresso Cookies - Ingredients

    On top of that I wanted to try yet another recipe from Elizabeth Falkner’s: Demolition Deserts cook book. This time I managed to make a nice chewy chocolate chip coffee laced cookie aptly named: Chocolate^2 Chip Espresso Cookie.
