You can even surprised your mother in law with some everlasting Traditional Nyonya festivals dishes. Some beginners who learned much earlier told me the dishes they took home were tested by their mothers in law. I hope not to let you down but instead you will be the center of talk of the elders now.

As I can remember, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, I am teaching in Tropical Spice Garden cooking school where I share just 2 dishes per session.

Other days in my home, Wednesday afternoon are for students wanting to take the whole series for Nyonya cooking.

Friday afternoon are people who have Thermomix. I will share how to cook healthy food, or 3 in 1 cooking using the Thermomix which is known as the world smallest kitchen.
