I’ve been playing quite a lot of games on Facebook lately. Waste of time, huh. And guess what, i installed Hell’s Kitchen Game On Facebook yesterday, lol. I’m not really a huge fan of Gordon Ramsay due to the amount of expletives he dish out on each episode of Hell’s Kitchen Reality TV series. One still has to be likeable no matter how famous one is, right.
I have friends who practically worship Gordon Ramsay and would watch every single episode of Hell’s Kitchen when it airs. Are you one of them? Do you like his recipes? Have you bought any of Gordon Ramsay’s recipe books? In Hell’s Kitchen Game On Facebook, players get to unlock some of his recipes as they advance up the levels.
If you have a Facebook account, you can play Hell’s Kitchen Game On Facebook yourself and feel what it’s like to get cussed at by Gordon Ramsay whenever you fail his tasks. I already have Hell’s Kitchen Game for PC, Wii & NDS, another platform wont kill, lol. There’s even Hell’s Kitchen Game for iPhone and iPod Touch!!! I believe people play Hell’s Kitchen Game to see what kind of Recipes they will get at each level.
I’ll make life easier for you instead. I’ll post the Hell’s Kitchen Game recipes up as i unlock them, ok. There are only 10 Gordon’s Ramsay’s famous recipes to unlock, ok. You can then try them out one by one later on. Just dont forget to come back and tell me how they taste like. Or better, send me a pic of the dish you’ve cook and i’ll post it up here.

This household loves stew. That’s why most of the dishes my MIL cooks are very simple and easy ones. We all eat at random hours. This morning, she made another pot of stew again. With just a few simple ingredients, we get to enjoy a good pot of stew that goes well with both rice and plain noodles.
You only need Roasted Pork or “Siew Yook”, one Chinese cabbage, and a packet of taupok. As for seasoning, fry some chopped ginger and garlic till fragrant inside a claypot. Put all ingredients into the claypot. Dont add too much water to it as the Cabbage will shrink. Then, pour some “Siew Heng” wine (Chinese Cooking Wine) to it.
Add some light soy sauce to it. Use dark soy sauce if you like it darker, k. You dont need salt as the Roasted Pork is already salty to begin with. Sometimes, my MIL will even fry the “Siew Yook” until fragrant before she makes this stew. This will depend on her mood lah. Simple mah, haimai. Cook on high till it boils and turn the heat down and let it simmer for an hour or two.
This is an upclose and personal shot of the bowl of Roasted Pork, Chinese cabbage and Taupok stew. Top it with a dash of soy sauce if you feel it’s not salty enough. Me, i always add some to it. Sometimes, i will eat it with Apple Cider Vinegar for a tangy taste.Try it one day when you are lazy and dont like cooking up a storm, k. Delicious comfort food!!!

My MIL cooked this morning but when i went to check on the dishes, found nothing there that my kids like. Saw a packet of minced pork staring at me and decided to make some minced pork patties for them.
Ingredient needed:
100gm minced pork
Corn flour, soy sauce, sugar and pepper to marinate
2 eggs
Cooking method:
Marinade the minced pork with the soy sauce, sugar and pepper for a short while. Knock two eggs into the minced pork and mix it up well. Fire up the stove and fry the patties in small batches. I only use a tablespoon of the mixture for each patty.
You can make smaller bite-sized ones if you have smaller kids. Add some chopped up vegetables like celery and carrots to the mixture for added nutritional value. Me, i wont bother, lol. Lazy mah. Tastes great on its own, with ketchup, mayonnaise, etc.
As for my kids, they ate these minced pork patties with white rice with lots of Japanese mayonnaise. Fattening, eh. Who cares lah. They like mah can loh, haimai. Less headache for me.
