Description

Food made with simple ingredients can create wonderful memories, bring comfort and nourish at the same time. Yet, for a busy person or family, preparing food at home is no longer a simple everyday pleasure. Easy Comfort Food helps those with too little time on their hands dive back into the pleasure of easy homespun food. Chef Bill Ho uses uncomplicated techniques to prepare delicious snacks, soups and one-pot meals with ingredients easily found in the modern kitchen. Accompanied by Bill's touching and funny food stories, as well as his beautiful illustrations, these recipes will inspire home cooks to create their own memories and joy with comfort food.

INTRODUCTION

This cookbook is a reflection of two of my passions: art and food.
As a kid I loved to draw and I aspired to be an artist. When I grew older and had to pick what to study at university, it was easy - I enrolled in a graphic design course. However, when I graduated, it was difficult to get a job related to graphic design or art.
In order to get by, I started work as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant. One day, when the kitchen was short of staff, I stepped in to help and discovered I enjoyed cooking very much. Long story short, I put on the apron and didn t look back. After working in many kitchens of different cuisines, I opened my own caf .
All through the years of learning to be a chef and running a food business, I continued to paint and sketch. And I still do today, because drawing and cooking are two wonderful creative outlets.
I hope that through this cookbook, more people will share my love for them, especially cooking, which is often seen as something tedious and time-consuming these days. The recipes I share here have been tweaked to suit the modern busy home cook. You will find options for weeknight dinners, from one-dish meals to hearty soups and light yet filling salads.
Many of the recipes were inspired by what I had when I was growing up in a kampung in Malaysia. For me, making these dishes always brings back wonderful memories associated with them. I hope you ll try them and make your own memories sharing them with family and friends.

Soft Dinner Rolls

Makes 36 buns
1 kg bread flour
500 g cake flour
10 g caster sugar
1 tsp salt
50 g yeast
2 eggs
50 g unsalted butter, melted
100 ml milk
650 ml water

In a large bowl, place both flours, sugar, salt and yeast. Stir to mix well.
Reserve 1 egg for making an egg wash. Beat the remaining egg and add to flour mixture. Add butter and milk, then mix well. Gradually add water, stirring to form a sticky dough.
Turn dough onto a lightly floured work surface. Dust hands lightly with flour and knead dough until it is smooth and soft. This should take about 15 minutes.
Transfer to a large bowl and cover with a damp towel, followed by cling film. Leave to rise at room temperature for 1 hour, until dough has doubled in size.
Divide equally into 36 portions and roll each portion into a ball. Arrange slightly apart on greased baking trays, cover with a damp towel and leave to rise again for 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 200 C.
Bake for 15 minutes until golden brown. For a richer colour, lightly beat the remaining egg and brush on top of buns, then bake for another minute.

The first time I made bread on my own was making these dinner rolls. A pastry chef I worked with in a tea lounge was kind enough to share this recipe with me. As someone who grew up in a kampung and only knew bread to mean the traditional sliced white loaf eaten with margarine and kaya (coconut jam), I was quite overwhelmed with emotion when I tasted bread I had made for the first time! This is a big batch, but it can be kept frozen, and reheated in the oven when needed.
