For usually plainer tasting dishes like veg and rice:
For veg, esp cabbage types, fry veg with sliced onions and chopped
garlic, add a cube of vegetable stock and a cup of water, more
pepper n a lil salt, u can put cornstarch and frozen shredded crab
meat in, the liquid'll be drinkably nice.
To turn your dry white rice into nice fried rice: first heat oil
and fry and scramble eggs, then dump in rice, put more sambal
chilli which should contain hei bi, 2+ tablespoons thai fish sauce,
sesame oil, pepper, a little salt n soya sauce. put whatever else
ingredients you want like pork floss, ikan bilis, egg..
to make all variations of steak sauce like red wine sauce, black
pepper sauce, mushroom sauce, add those other condiments to the
mother brown sauce. brown sauce is troublesome to make (fry
mirepoix veg and bones with tomato sauce n flour then deglaze then
bake bones till brown and add water etc) but no worries you can use
instant brown sauce powder.. i'll add gruyere cheese and sliced
mushrooms on top of my medium well steak with reduced red wine
brown sauce.
a nice dish is cereal prawns, buy singlong's crispy cereal prawns
instant mix from ntuc and the other ingredients listen on packet.
you can also cook cod fish with miso paste and put the crispy
cereal and crispy golden mushrooms on the fish.

plenty of diced lean bacon and cubed chicken thigh. add a cup of
white wine and reduce till < half left. add in shredded

to make a simple omelette for breakfast, beat 3 eggs, put in salt
