‘Cooking is easy; think, and give it a try…’

Mimi has developed her interest in cooking since she was very young. Her grandma was very skilful in cooking the native cuisines of her hometown Shunde. ‘Stuffed Dace Fish’ is one of her signature dishes. When Mimi began to live with her husband CHAN Kwok-pong eight to nine years ago, she has had the opportunity to try out cooking at home. As Mimi and Kwok-pong are not fond of eating out, they usually visit the wet market on holidays and then go home to make a nice dinner together.

‘Cooking is easy, just have imagination and give it a try’, Mimi said. She gets much of her cooking ideas from TV cooking shows and cooking websites. Whenever Mimi cooks something new, she will invite friends to share her new dishes at her kitchen.

Her Cooking Changes the Eating Habit of Her Beloved

Mimi’s husband seldom cooks, neither does he have a healthy diet. Mimi calls him a ‘carnivore’. To encourage Kwok-pong to eat more vegetables, Mimi always adds vegetables into her dishes such as lettuce wrap and mixed stir-fry with vegetables.
