honey glazed baby pork ribs
We’re staying home to do chores today. No mood to leave house too and so I decided to clear some food in the fridge.
Got this pack of pork ribs from Redmart for quite some time already.
Going to roast some vegetables too.
Putting the rib on a rack over the vegetables, so the veggies can get some flavour from the ribs too.
Glazed it with my honey garlic. 😋

We visited FairPrice’s Warehouse Club, it wasn’t as huge as I thought it would be but the items there can really be quite cheap if you need it in bulk. Too bad there’s not muh space left in my freezer.
The tub of Nutella is wow.
Tried the Guinness mooncake. Not bad.

mentaiko pasta . claypot chicken rice
Had this kewpie brand mentaiko pasta sauce packet lying somewhere and I’ve got the one last sausage left from 2 weeks ago which I kept in the freezer. Avocado spoiling, cut out the parts which I still could use. Canned tuna from Maldives from TC’s colleague 2 years ago. LOL.
Tadaa! No food is wasted.

Spend a lot of time fixing our dining table, a lot of filing down at the sides because it’s too wide and the extension wouldn’t come out. Still not done yet though.
TC mentioned about ordering GrabFood but I felt that we have a lot of ingredients in the fridge, I can cook something quick. So claypot rice it is! One pot meals are easy to prepare.
Very impressed with the rice cooker’s claypot function too! Got crispy rice at the bottom. 😋
