Cherry on a Cake is a delicious food blog with many baking and savory recipes. The recipes are authentic and the food photography is pure eye-candy. Check out Cherry on a Cake and I am sure you will like it. Like those before me I was ecstatic to be invited to guest post on Bee’s blog Rasa Malaysia.

So these were not dishes I grew up eating when I was a child.

Bombay Chicken Curry April 22, 2010 | By Adam Roberts | 21 Comments I’ve always been a very truthful food blogger and so I’m going to tell you the truth about the video you see above. Part One of the truth is this: the Bombay Chicken Curry that Chef Floyd Cardoz (chef at the celebrated New York City restaurant Tabla) made for us in the first half of this video was the best chicken curry I’ve ever had in my life. Part Two of the truth concerns the chicken curry that I make in the second half of the video. Despite my assurances that it tastes delicious and the somewhat appealing (though slightly saturated) image at the end, the chicken curry that I made that day in my old Brooklyn kitchen was deeply flawed for two major reasons. Reason #1: I didn’t stir up the coconut milk. Reason #2: When I covered the chicken and the coconut milk, I didn’t turn down the heat enough so the sauce broke. Bombay Chicken Curry Adapted from Chef Floyd Cardoz of Tabla Serves: 4 Ingredients: Salt 2 tablespoons minced ginger 1. 2. 3. 4.
Chocolate Wasted Cake Ever since my brother started using the phrase "I wanna get chocolate wasted" from the movie Grown Ups I've been wanting to make this cake for his birthday. Being a chocoholic myself, I had no trouble coming up with ways to fill this cake with layer upon layer of chocolatey goodness. Just looking at this cake, I think you'll agree that it definitely deserves its name. Photo Credit: Ryan Rivera To create this chocolate beauty, I baked two layers of delicious chocolate cake. Then, I completely covered the sides of the cake with Ghirardelli semi-sweet chocolate chips. Next, I topped the cake with an assortment of chocolate candies. Last, I drizzled some melted chocolate all over the cake. I hope this cake inspires you to create your own chocolate wasted cake. Special thanks to Jef at My Food Geek for sharing some food photography tips with me recently. Chocolate Wasted CakeThis is an egg-free recipe I created to accommodate my son's food allergies. Preheat oven to 325 350 F degrees.

Like other popular Chinese dishes here in the United States, you can’t miss General Tso’s Chicken if you love Chinese food. It’s always served at Chinese buffet; it’s also a very popular Chinese take out item. The good news is that it’s really not that hard to make it at home. General Tso’s Chicken originated from Hunan, China, but from what I read, the connection of the dish to the brave Chinese general General Tso is largely a US or western reference.
