About Recipes for Students
I love to eat and cook.
I come from Hong Kong and have been in the UK for 10 years. I am now studying in London.
Having come to the UK to study for some years, I realized that the living cost is too high for a student to cope with, unless some money can be saved from their daily lives, e.g. not to eat out, but to cook a nice meal with minimum costs.
This site will be updated frequently in a blog style, to provide recipes and cooking tips for students like myself: left home, started to live independently, didn't like the oils and salts when eating out, enjoyed cooking, etc.
I will try to write all the recipes in English, however I do oriental cooking sometimes and it can be difficult to find the English names for some ingredients, so for some recipes it will be in Chinese. I appologise for the inconvenient but if you are very interested in those Chinese recipes, you can contact me and I shall try my best to translate or describe them to you.

Cookery level:
- I'm lazy and the only thing I know around the kitchen is how to use the fridge and microwave!- - I only know how to fry an egg, and sometimes it turns out to be burnt...
- - I'd like to cook sometimes, but I can only do easy dishes with no more than 3 ingredients.
- - I will cook whenever I have the chance, and people love my food!
- - You can find me in the kitchen all the time... basically I'm born to be a chef!
