Recipe • Laksa Meatballs with Laksa Pasta (part 1)

Image
This Laksa Meatballs with Laksa Pasta was the first dish I cooked among the 3 dishes I shared using Dancing Chef™ pastes because I initially thought I may need to fine tune the recipe, cook using the revised recipe one more time before I share it out. However, it wasn't necessary at all. The taste came out right, thanks to this ready to cook paste from Dancing Chef™! Oh, the husband told me to cook this dish for him again after he sampled it and Lil K commented he likes the meatballs too! These meatballs are not spicy, but do have a mild taste of spices so children who are able to take mild spicy food will be able to take them. Furthermore, Dancing Chef™ pastes contain no MSG, preservatives or artificial colouring, making them a natural product. The meatballs are suitable for freezing, I kept half the portion in freezer-OK container and re-heat in the oven for Lil K's deco-lunch.

Recipe • Shabu Pork Rolls with Laksa Sauce

Image
For today's Dancing Chef™ x SingaporeHomeCooks collaboration recipe post, I'm sharing how we can incorporate their Laksa Paste to create other dishes. Since laksa is a spicy dish, it isn't very suitable for the 2 boys. I decided it shall be cooked into a dish that my husband will like. And I am glad, he does like this Shabu Pork Rolls with Laksa Sauce . The crunchy veggies wrapped in shabu pork that soaked up the laksa broth... spicy and flavorful!
