Joys in kitchen

Growing up in asian families
most daughters should have plenty of chances 
to learn cooking from their mothers
to start cooking since young

for my family,
the kitchen was my mother's guarded castle
we rarely have the chance to be in kitchen
even when she was not around
i remembered having my sister and brother 
heating up prepared food
when i was young

when i have chance to cook
it was always simple instant food
like instant noodles, frozen and canned food
so at 30 years old,
i can say i dont have much knowledge of food

In my past few trips to Paris
I did have the opportunities to cook
since i was normally here for a week
we still spend more time eating out
although i did noticed i have some talent in cooking
haha
i think all thanks to internet for simple recipes
and watching too much of gorden ramsy shows

since now im here
i really enjoy the fun of planning for meals
shopping for grocery
cooking new dishes
praying that it will be fine
i do hope it will get easier as time comes!

Random lunch pasta i mde
with leftover pasta
and an instant soup as sauce

















The beef was on sale for 1Euro
So i tried making my first steak
but it became overcooked and tough
the herbs potatoes were nice
so it went for dinner menu





Last night
Im very proud of my dinner
-Pan fried salmon
-Herbs potatoes
- Salad with tomatoes and tangerine
















I guess what i made have been really simple

but i think is really small steps of achievement for me
Shall watch more cooking shows!
