You’ll find most Asian and Asian-inspired vegan recipes here. Since I grew up in the Philippines with a Chinese background, I grew up with a mix of East and Southeast Asian recipes, mostly from home cooked meals and from my travels.
You’ll find Chinese classics such as Sweet and Sour “Pork”, Homemade Wontons in Chili Broth, Ginger and Scallion Noodles, Crispy Salt and Pepper Tofu, Chili Garlic Oil Noodles, and more.
You’ll also find vegan versions of some of my favourite Filipino food growing up from Kare-Kare, Kaldereta, Salpicao, Tofu Sisig, and more.
Well, this is of course a personal preference but if you’re looking to get started on your vegan journey and are looking for a great substitute to meat, I can recommend starting out with a few of my tofu recipes.
If you’re looking for quick and simple (but still really hearty recipes), I can recommend checking out my noodle recipes.
I learned a lot growing up and seeing the people here at home cook. My mom was always in the kitchen and she learned a lot of tips and tricks from my ama (dad’s mom) and guama (my mom’s mom).
I also loved watching cooking shows growing up and would try out a lot of different dishes in the kitchen before I even went vegan.
You can find some of my kitchen and pantry essentials here.
Hmmmm… a really tough question but probably anything with rice or noodles!
I love doing pottery and creating my own ceramic pieces–from plates, spoons, cups, mugs, etc! A lot of the plates I use in my photos I made myself.
I also enjoy gardening and planting my own herbs to use for my cooking.
Apart from these I love watching films and recently during the start of quarantine, Korean dramas!
I use a Fujifilm X-T30 with 18-55mm lens for my photos.
I currently only use natural light for all my photos. I shoot my a window and use a simple board with a white surface to help me reflect light.
