Inside Aunty Chelli's Fridge

My uncle adores his wife's cooking....who wouldn't. Thats why when my aunt goes to visit relatives in Perth, she deep freezes containers of different curries and other dishes which he can heat up to eat. My uncle is soo lucky. After seeing these in her fridge today I was truly temped to swipe some.


Aunty Chelli has even listed out all the various dishes available and placed it on the fridge. Now thats what I call efficient.


The clock in her kitchen is so cute that I couldn't help taking a photo.

Dolka for Tea

My aunt is currently visiting her daughter D in Perth. When my cousin, D, sent me these photos from Perth, I felt so hungry. Click on the pictures to make them bigger to see what I mean. They just sent my tastebuds into spasms. I so badly wanted to have some.

D said her mum made some Dolka (fried savoury dish) for tea for friends who were coming over. The main ingredients are semolina, onions, chilli and corn flour for the dough. For the chutney or dip she used coconut, youghurt, mint and green chilli. I have to wait till next year when Aunty Chelli is back to devour some of these new creations.

Wedding Engagement Cake

This is the first time I am seeing a picture of the cake. She's on holiday at her home in Perth now, and sent me a picture from there. Wow I didn't know my aunt could make such pretty, decorative cakes. I have never seen her make cakes with hard icing before. I am quite impressed, because I suck at cooking and also she is not a trained baker/chef but self-taught. I know I must sound like a biased niece, but I really think she has a hidden talent.
