Default Your Speciality

Not sure if Top Chef airs in the uk, but I love it. Basically the show comprises of chefs competing against each other in weekly challenges. They are judged by a panel of professional chefs (the likes of not so subtle Anthony Bourdain - absolute legend!) and other notables from the food and wine industry with one or more contestants eliminated each week. The food always looks absolutely delicious and everytime I watch I feel inspired to cook and eat!

So I’m just wondering what is your one speciality? What do you enjoy cooking? (that's if you do)

For me, since I lived in Malaysia for a few years ..I naturally have grown up more on that kind of cuisine (probably helps with the chilli addiction) ..so it has to be my soupy rice noodles (tofu, bean sprouts, veges) with chicken dumplings - with extra chilli/black pepper.

I dunno, I like experimenting in the kitchen whenever I'm making something and I make everything Desi-fied like Lasagne, Pasta and Shepherd's Pie!

Only one thing is certain--that is, nothing is certain.
If this statement is true, it is also false.

Well its all about experimenting and trying out and seeing what works and doesn't. I guess your lucky Shaz, not everything I make turns out as well as I would like it too.
