Cuisine & Culture the Chinese Family Way
The Worst-Case Scenario is a family-friendly card game, where you are playing the victim and rank the cards from bad to worst. Your fellow players will have to guess how the victim will rank the scenarios. It is suitable for ages 10 and above and for three to six players (best to play with 3 to 4 players).
A few months ago, I applied to host an André Rieu’s Week of the Waltz Party via Come Round and was lucky to be picked to host it. Last Tuesday, I received two parcels. Inside there were André Rieu masks, eye masks, pens, a poster, banner, snacks and along with three sample discs.
Last month, I was picked by Come Round to host a Birds Eye party #FishFingerSandwich. It just happened to be on Father’s Day. So I invited a few relatives and friends over. I am no stranger to Birds Eye as we use plenty of their frozen products like fish fingers and grilled chicken.
Last month, I was lucky to be picked by Come Round to host a Philips beauty party with 9 of my friends. Philips had kindly sent me a Philips Lumea Precision Plus and a Philips Visapura for all of us to review. Rituals Cosmetics also sent us four of their products. Thanks to Come Round for organising yet another fantastic party!
Philips HomeCooker is like a slow cooker but with many other functions. It is able to simmer (90ºC), boil (110ºC), steam (130ºC), fry (175ºC), keep the food warm (70ºC) and melt (40ºC). The temperature setting (max 250ºC) can also be set to turbo to heat up ingredients quickly or to roast large amounts of ingredients.
Spaghetti Alla Norma is another dish that I had made for my Philips Fresh Cooks Party on 30 September 2012 using the Philips HomeCooker. It took me 15 – 20 minutes to prepare the ingredients.
For my Philips Fresh Cooks Party, I had decided to cook crispy rosemary potatoes from Jamie’s HomeCooker recipes (Page 50) using my Philips HomeCooker.
