10 Food items I always have in my pantry:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Black peppercorn to get freshly ground black pepper \u2013 always great for some added flavour<\/p>\n

2. Lemons \u2013 nothing that some lemon juice and zest can’t give a lift to<\/p>\n

3. Eggs \u2013 great for whipping up a last minute dish and good for holding together vegetables like diced bell peppers and tomatoes<\/p>\n

4. Garlic \u2013 adds flavour to just about everything you cook it with. An ingredient that Chinese food can’t do without<\/p>\n

5. Rice \u2013 I’m Chinese. Nuff said.<\/p>\n

6. Vermicelli (aka beehoon<\/em>\u00a0\/ \u7c73\u7c89) \u2013 this reminds me of Singapore; it’s easy to whip up with a few condiments and ingredients<\/p>\n

7. Salt \u2013 an ingredient that all dishes can’t do without; the basis of all seasoning<\/p>\n

8. Soy sauce \u2013 \u00a0Integral to Chinese food which I cook pretty often<\/p>\n

9. Olive oil \u2013 I use this for all my stir-fries and salads<\/p>\n

10. Fresh red chillies – great for giving a spicy kick to anything<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
