Kiri Hodi: Sri Lankan Coconut Milk Stew with Boiled Eggs
Meen Puttu: A South Indian Classic
If shark isn’t your choice, you can use mackerel or another fish. It’s worth noting that the shark used in meen/fish puttu, often smaller species like "sura meen," is not the same as the large sharks used for shark fin soup. The smaller sharks used here are caught for their meat, ensuring a more sustainable approach.

Milo Cake With Milo Glaze (Eggless)
I must confess, I’m not exactly a master baker. My baking ventures are rare and usually happen only when I have a bit of time to spare. I bake not to dazzle, but to satisfy my curiosity about whether baking really is as remarkable as some enthusiasts claim. It’s always better to discover things for ourselves rather than relying solely on others’ opinions. So, without any need for proving anything to anyone, let’s see if this Milo Cake with Milo Glaze (Eggless) can stand on its own (SUJEE CAKE & CLASSIC, MARBLE LEMON BUTTER CAKES)
This recipe isn’t originally mine; I stumbled upon it while browsing through instructables. Unlike some of my past baking experiments from the internet that ended in disaster, this one seemed promising. I opted for Milo instead of cocoa powder - mainly because that tin of Milo has been languishing in my pantry for ages, and it felt like the perfect time to put it to good use, especially since we’re more of a coffee-drinking household.

Healthy & Easy Vegetarian Avocado Recipes
They say an avocado a day keeps the bland meals away! Packed with healthy fats, fiber, vitamins like E and K, and minerals like potassium and magnesium, avocados are a great addition to any diet.

Cantonese Yee Mee: Chinese Style Noodles Simplified
Let's skip the stories and dive straight into Seafood Yee Mee. The key to this dish lies in the stock (TOM YUM SOUP VARIETIES). Once you have a good stock, everything else falls into place. Here’s how you can prepare the essential stocks.

Best Things To Do in Penang
There are countless things to do in Penang, but what stands out for visitors is the food scene and sightseeing. When it comes to sightseeing in Penang, people prefer the top things to do or must-visit places. These are often listed on travel sites, shared on social media, or recommended by others who’ve experienced them.
The attractions you can cover depend on how long you stay in Penang. As attractions are spread out across different parts of the island, covering all at one go may not be possible. Therefore, you’ll probably return to Penang once or twice again to include the rest of the sightseeing spots.
