Vegetable Curry Dip with Refried U.S. Pinto Beans
The speckled pinto bean is not only nutritious but very versatile for cooking. Rich in protein, it also contains phosphorus and manganese and is very high in dietary fibre and folate. These mashed and refried pinto beans are a life-saver for busy people. Personally, my family love the dips I make with these refried beans, usually eaten with tortilla chips as a healthy snack. To give it more colours and flavours, I like to add in chunky bits of vegetables in my dips. Here, I’d like to share … [Read more...]
DoubleTree by Hilton Putrajaya
It is commendable that even during this challenging pandemic period, the very first DoubleTree by Hilton in Putrajaya was opened just more than a month ago. The launch of this resort during this time is a testament to the commitment of Hilton to establish its presence in new destinations across the country and our administrative capital of Putrajaya is an ideal choice. Taking a short break recently, I visited this 290-room hotel spread over vast luscious grounds. This hotel is just … [Read more...]

Dining-out at CHYNNA, Hilton Kuala Lumpur
With some of the lockdown restrictions being slowly lifted as the community moves on to the next recovery phase, dining out is now allowed. To many F&B establishments and hotels, there must be collective sighs of relief as they see there’s likely to be light at the end of the tunnel. I am selective when it comes to dining-out now, even as we move on to the pandemic recovery phase and resuming as normal a life as can be. I will only visit places which I know will strictly enforce … [Read more...]

Flatbread & Chicken Pesto with U.S. Chickpeas
I have been staying and working at home ever since the pandemic hit early last year. Due to safety precautions against COVID-19, cooking meals at home has become a daily routine and easy-to-prepare healthy meals are always welcome. Instead of the usual rice meals which we Asians usually favour, I find that making your own flatbreads at home is a good option. Instead of the full-flour recipe, adding a portion of pulses flour, (e.g., U.S. Chickpea flour) gives it a healthier twist. Rich in … [Read more...]
