打工妈咪之简单家庭菜 - Simple Meals at Home for my Family!

I started a simple Facebook Page almost two years ago to record some of the quick dishes which I prepared for my kids over the weekdays and sometimes on the weekends. A quick one, nothing too fancy, nothing too difficult!

I occasionally make some trips to wet market in the morning on weekends, and sometimes go to the nearby grocer for vegetables stock up.  Not really at all time organic, but I see what to buy on that’s week budget. They might be the simplest ingredients which I can pick up with no specific recipe in minds. At most times, I am cutting down some intake of meat at home besides stocking up pork and chicken ribs for soups and mincing up some meat with the pork I buy from the wet market. I will choose chicken breast meat at most time as it has no bones and easier for my kids to eat. It sounds like a bit too little choices for them, but so far I think they are adapting it well.

I try to stock up my ingredients once a week, and try to finish up all the ingredients I have bought in that week as well.

As a working mum, picking both my Boys up from the schools is also part of my job. So by the time I reach home, all I have are a short time to prepare dinner for them so that dinner can be served right on time when they feel hungry! I try to find some easy ways out. I do not invest on any new high-tech cookers as of now to help me to cut short my preparations and cooking time as it requires investment. Hehe…. So, all I have now with me is my rice cooker, my oven and my induction cooker.

If any mummies here have any simple and short recipes to share with me, all are welcomed! At the same, all of you are welcomed to share ideas and tips on my Facebook page as well. It is not easy to be so busy with two kids and to do most things all by myself. So I build up this small interest of mine. Nothing too great but it is good enough to keep me happy as a full time working mum!
