Hi, all of you, how is your day going? Hopefully, you are safe and sound everywhere you are. Here in Singapore, groups of five will be allowed to dine-in from July 12 (next Monday). We are more relaxed now since the new cases in the community gradually downward day by day which means the spread is under control. We must work together as a nation! Play our part in this battle against the Covid-19 virus! We are strong together!💪

Speaking of which, today I am going to share my new recipe by using Western herbs like rosemary and thyme to stir fry beef. Wait for a second, are you sure beef? Indeed, I can't eat beef since my body has always rejected it as it causes nausea. However, I have tried to make a recipe and how to cook an acceptable beef menu for my body. I know it's weird because most people adore this meat and become the common menu on the table. I can easy to identify the scent of meat whether chicken or beef, those things are made me vomit. Even fish, if I do not take attention on how the cooking process, I would end up vomit. Because of this, I avoid buying food from outside. Unless we are tired or get sick, I have no choice🙄

By combining Western herbs such as rosemary and thyme, I try to create my new recipe; add those two herbs along with black pepper sauce where I could easy to spot this particular sauce in the market or grocery nearby. In contrast, I can only find those Western herbs in the Hypermarket at expensive prices. I should not buy these herbs since they are priceless. But my curiosity to try them is unresistible!😅
