However if your cooking skill is still in amateur level but want to prepare a decent meal at home, you can always counting on the my recipes to get some ideas for your next meal.

HAPPY COOKING & #stayathome #dudukrumah
Mmmm..this should be good with a lot of rice! I can pick up some drumsticks this weekend. Dunno if the crowd is crazy or not. So scared to go buy things these days >.<
PH, actually you can use any chicken parts to cook this. 🙂
I see you like to remove the chicken skin too (like me). Everyone’s cooking a storm in the kitchen these days due to the MCO……hee…hee! 😉
Kris, ya, I normally remove the chicken skin unless I’m cooking kampung chicken, which I will remain a few pieces with skin on, because Sam like chicken skin 😛
my cooking skills are below-amateur, so i will need an even easier recipe, heheh 🙂
Sean, Hmm….instant noodles add egg should be easy enough for you, hehe 😛
