I had two weeks of prata with curry when I got back to Perth, and I think it’s time to give that a break. I should have thought of that before buying a big pack of 20 pieces frozen prata dough. So, it’s time to be creative! I also went to the newly opened ALDI store and bought some vegan…

Recipe: Vegan-Friendly Stuffed You Tiao (Fried Crullers)
My mom used to hold a joint birthday celebration for my sister and me, as our birthdays are 4 days apart; hers on 13 October, mine on 17 October.

I usually eat according to the digestive rate of the food; say, I eat vegetables first, followed by starchy produce like potatoes or rice, then meat last. I don’t have a strong digestive system, and I find…
