Hello! I’m Fifi and it’s so nice to meet you!

Welcome to my kitchen, where you can coorie into the warmth of Malaysian roots and the misty charm of Glasgow evenings. Join me in cooking a quiet celebration of flavor—dishes shaped by the fragrant spices of Southeast Asia and the cozy rhythms of Scottish life.

Here you’ll find unfussy pots simmering with seasonal ingredients, tucked into simple recipes that make weeknights feel effortless. As a Malaysian cooking abroad, I’m always blending the familiar with the seasonal, finding new ways to bring one-pot ease and homegrown warmth to everyday tables.

My hope is that each story and spoonful brings a taste of home—whether it’s mine or one you’re creating for yourself.

You’d quickly forget all that upon witnessing that magical transformation out of the oven. Don’t you feel like a wizard?

If that sounds like your kinda food, join in the bandwagon and enjoy exploring!
