This post is about the food that I prepared for my own consumption as I really was sick of the Mexican's food. The photos looked deceiving as the actual taste was far worst than I imagined. Still, they marked the beginning of my self-discovery as this was formally the first time I ever tried cooking, not at my own home in Singapore though, but in Mexico. When I was in Mexico for the first few days, I was very fond of Singapore's vegetarian food especially Mai Zhi Su (麦之素) and I swore that I will cook Chinese food for myself here, and so I did it!
I was trying to stir-fry vegetables.
But I realised I added too much water and over cooked it.

The resulting tastes was horrible and I threw it away after trying, much to the horror of my host mother who had been helping me with the cooking.
I put the vegetables aside and started frying the potatoes, one of my favorite food!
It looked deceivingly decent.
Alors, the full meal was ready for consumption!
Another Chinese cuisine - La Comida China.
I was waiting for the porridge to be cooked.
I was stirring it constantly to achieve an even blend of taste for the ingredients that I put in.
Much to my disappointment, the porridge tasted very bland and I couldn't figure it out the reason why.
I already had given my best shot but still...
My host mother was doing the washing up, like she always did it for me after I "messed" up her kitchen with La Comida China. Haha...
My favorite food in Singapore, French beans. But it was not thoroughly cooked as it felt too raw.
A close-up of this dish looked awesome in terms of colour and texture.
The mushrooms looked deceivingly like they were some delicious meat...

This time round, I maked sure the vegetables were thoroughly cooked. So I boiled them with water first before I cooked with the rice to make Fried Rice, a typical Chinese cuisine.
The final product of blending!
