Taste New Zealand Food Fair @ AEON


Hey....What's cooking in the kitchen? :p
Last Saturday, yours truly and a few blogger friends were put through a cook-off challenge with the best of New Zealand produce and products led by Executive Chef Krishnan at Berjaya University College.


Lucky us, as we have Chef Krishnan demonstrated three recipes for us using New Zealand mussels and Greenlea beef. He also shared tips and tricks with us on how to slice quickly and evenly.


Next, it's our turn to cook up a storm minus the fire for sure, to be on the safe side. Lol 


The New Zealand mussels are plump and juicy. Just saute it with garlic, add grated cheese on top and bake for 5 minutes. 

Voila! Within 30 minutes, we managed to whip out 2 dishes, Cheese Baked Mussels & Greenlea Beef Stir Fry with Capsicum. Not too bad, eh! Frankly, I don't cook that often, but these dishes are really easy to make and taste so good too.

This festive season, head over to Taste New Zealand Food Fair, to get your hands on quality and honest New Zealand products and produce comprising of a delectable selection of new artisanal treats, guilt-free chocolates, premium New Zealand apples and kiwifruits as well as a range of sustainable, eco-friendly products.
