Cooking

Kai just uploaded all the pictures of food we had cooked up to now. Actually, there are a lot more food that we haven't taken picture of as we were too hungry to take picture.

Before I came to the UK, I had no idea of how to cook at all. My mum and dad are always there taking care of me. No need to worry about food. Since I came to the UK, life became more difficult in terms of food. I know I need to learn how to cook to feed Kai and myself. Kai has been living in the UK for nearly 9 years by himself, so he learned to cook through all those years.

Before he taught me how to cook, he made amazing food for me. I was curious about how he made the food and took interest in learning it. Kai, of course, was very keen to teach me. I can see he was very proud of being an expert in cooking. Since I graduated, I have a lot of free time at home and started to take care of the whole family, house chores and cooking.

Kai is quite supportive to my cooking, agree to buy me all the cooking utensils, ingredients and cookbooks?. I know why this is the only hobby of mine he backs up completely.

I like to make a lot food so he can bring some the next day to school for lunch to share with his lunch buddies and get feedback from them through Kai.

Although Kai is my first cooking teacher, I don't consult him for recipes any more. Internet is a great source of information, full of recipes and even cooking videos. I like to try different recipes, Chinese, western, exotics......
