🧧 恭祝大家年初六快樂！祝願大家馬年喜樂安康、吉祥如意 🐎✨ Happy Sixth Day of Chinese New Year! (The festivities begin on the first day of the lunar new year and culminate with the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day.)

我在新年前後一直忙於佛堂活動和家人聚會，今天終於能抽空跟大家拜年並送上祝福。

過去幾星期，我在曼城佛光山努力參與：

🪷 教授攝影工作坊
🪷 於除夕延生普佛法會擔任攝影
🪷 記錄醒獅賀歲與財神到的喜慶時刻

在誦經祈願的寧靜與新春慶典的歡騰之間，充分感受到大家在莊嚴與喜悅對比中，洋溢滿滿的幸福心情。

感恩法師與佛堂大眾的信任，讓我以鏡頭嘗試捕捉並保留那些珍貴的瞬間。

願未來一年大家繼續健康、平安與快樂 💛

I’ve been very busy serving at the temple and spending time with family over the New Year period, and today I finally have a moment to send everyone my greetings.

In the past weeks at Fo Guang Shan Temple Manchester, I have :

🪷 Taught a photography workshop
🪷 Served as photographer for the New Year’s Eve Dharma Service
🪷 Documented the Lion Dance celebrations and the joyful welcome of the God of Wealth

From the stillness of chanting to the vibrancy of celebration, it has been both deeply spiritual and joyful.

Grateful to our Venerable and the temple community for their trust, allowing me to try and capture and preserve those unforgettable moments.

May the year ahead continue to bring you health, peace and happiness 💛 by @ricebowltales

俗語說：「月過十五光明少，人到中年萬事休。」意思是，人到了中年，便該慢慢放下世俗的追逐與煩惱，過一種平淡安穩的生活。

我老公卻常笑我說：「怎麼妳偏偏完全相反？」

確實，踏入中年之後，我一天比一天忙。
但這份忙碌，並不是來自世俗的追逐或煩心事，而是一種想把每一天都過得更充實、更有意義的心情。

每天除了店裡的工作和家務，我還拍攝飲食影片、整理與撰寫食譜部落格；也和住在遠方的孩子們保持緊密聯繫。只要他們回家，我就忙得不亦樂乎，心卻滿滿的。

今年開始，我在佛堂承擔的義工工作也多了起來 ~ 攝影、文宣、財務、烹飪分享、拍攝培訓等等，全都是我真心喜愛的事，所以投入得特別認真。

然而，一天終究只有二十四小時，時間老是不夠用。於是今年，我可能需要暫時把創作影片的步伐放慢一些，轉而專心把多年累積的食譜好好整理、分享在部落格中。
回想當年，在孩子們與朋友的鼓勵下寫下第一篇部落格文章時，轉眼竟已是十五年前的事。

這些年裡，我曾獲得烹飪比賽冠軍，也為台灣悅知文化出版了三本著作。九年前，我們夫婦選擇轉為全素飲食，並把已經營了二十七年的外賣小店，轉型成北威爾斯第一間純素外賣店。一路走來，至今仍然懷著熱情，全心投入地經營著。

下月十七日便是農曆新年，我剛完成了一道「素烤鵝」的食譜，很希望能盡快與大家分享。

最後，更要衷心感謝每一位溫暖地支持我們，親愛的客人們。

最近 Rebel Dragon Designs 在網上分享了他們下班後，一邊看電視、一邊享用我們小店晚餐的畫面；之前 Lydia 和 Jamie 也轉發了他們給我們的推薦。這些珍貴的心意，都是我和老公每天站在廚房裡努力工作的最大動力 💛 by @ricebowltales

❄️💫 祝福大家冬至安好
Happy Winter Solstice 💛✨

一年之中，這是一段最寒冷、最漫長的時節，然而在我心裡，卻感到溫暖與明亮。

冬至，自古以來便是團圓、更新與追思的日子。它提醒我們珍惜家人、緬懷祖先，也相信黑夜終將過去，光明會慢慢回來。在不同的地方，人們以簡單而溫暖的食物迎接這一天。北方吃餃子，南方吃湯圓，不只是為了果腹，更為那份祈求圓滿與幸福的心意。

孩子們正在回家的路上，湯圓也在靜靜地準備著。抱著這份喜悅，我心懷感恩。

願溫暖能抵達需要它的地方，願漸長的白晝，為世界帶來撫慰、療癒與和平。

This time of year is always the coldest and darkest, yet in my heart it feels warm and bright.

Winter Solstice has long been a time of reunion, renewal, and remembrance. A moment to honour family and ancestors, and to trust that the light will slowly return. Traditionally as significant as Chinese New Year, it is marked by sharing simple foods that nourish both body and spirit: dumplings in the north, tangyuan in the south, each carrying wishes for wholeness and togetherness.

Our children are on their way home. Tangyuan are being lovingly prepared. I hold this joy dearly, with gratitude.

May warmth reach where it is needed most, and may the lengthening days bring comfort, healing, and peace to all. by @ricebowltales

我心裡滿是悲痛與難過。看到大埔發生這場奪走許多生命、破壞無數家庭的嚴重火災，令我心碎不已。香港是我出生、成長、一直掛念的地方。

僅向所有失去至親或家園的家庭、所有受傷者，以及所有受到這場悲劇影響的人，致以最深切的祈願與哀悼。

願逝者安息。願有關當局能進行最徹底的調查，並為所有需要幫助的人提供適切的支援與關懷。願香港在未來的日子裡重新振作，慢慢走出傷痛，重拾力量 🙏❤️

My heart is heavy with sadness and devastation.

Watching the tragic fire in Hong Kong, the place where I was born, grew up, and continue to hold so close to my heart; has been deeply painful.

My thoughts, prayers, and heartfelt condolences go to the families who have lost loved ones or their homes, to those injured, and to everyone affected by this heartbreaking tragedy.

May the victims rest in peace.

May the authorities conduct a thorough investigation, and may all those in need receive the support and care they deserve.

And may the city find strength and healing in the days ahead 🙏❤️ by @ricebowltales

🥮✨【簡易白蓮蓉冰皮月餅 (純素)
Easy Lotus Paste Snow Skin Mooncake (Vegan) 】

團圓的甜美，中秋節冰皮月餅 🌕🏮
明月千里寄相思、花好月圓、人月兩團圓 !

中秋節是東亞文化中最重要的節日之一。每逢八月十五，月光最圓最亮，象徵着團圓與思念。今年 2025 年的中秋節是在十月六日，星期一。

無論是傳統還是創新，月餅始終承載着「團圓」的心意。只要與摯愛的人分享，便是最美的中秋。

我們特別喜歡蓮蓉與紅豆餡，因此想與大家示範，如何用自製細滑香軟的蓮蓉來做月餅。雖然在一些亞洲超市能買到現成的蓮蓉，但自己動手做會更清新天然，沒有添加防腐劑，而且還能自行調整甜度。

詳細影片和完整食譜的連結在個人檔案欄或在 YouTube 找 Rice Bowl Tales 。謝謝 💛

Sweet Reunion: Snow Skin Mooncakes for Mid-Autumn Festival 🌕🏮

The bright moon carries longing across a thousand miles.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the most cherished celebrations across East Asia. On the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month, the moon shines its brightest and fullest; a symbol of reunion and longing. This year 2025, it falls on Monday 6th October.

Whether traditional or modern, mooncakes always carry the same meaning: a wish for togetherness. And when shared with loved ones under the moonlight, they become the sweetest symbol of Mid-Autumn.

🥢 傳承的竹葉，包著滿滿的愛
Passing Down Tradition, Wrapping Up Love – A Dragon Boat Festival Moment ✨

🐉 這個星期六，就是端午節了。一個充滿傳統與回憶的節日。

大家有沒有和家中的孩子們一起包粽子呢？

我女兒今年特地提早回家，不只為了與我們共渡佳節，更是第一次跟我一起包糉子。當我一步步地教她如何摺葉、填餡、綁繩時，我不禁想起當年媽媽也是這樣，扶著我的手，教我如何裹牢這份家的味道。

我們包的不只是糯米和餡料，而是一起融進了笑聲、故事、母女間的溫情，以及一份代代相傳的喜悅與愛。

而就在這充滿意義的一天，她還送給我一份特別的禮物，Vittles Magazine 創刊五週年紀念的第一本實體雜誌，她不僅是首席插畫師，更負責了這期的封面設計。

這是她事業的一個里程碑，更是我作為母親，一份說不出的驕傲與感動。

這一天，這些糉子傳承的不只習俗和味道，還有我們之間深深的情感與愛念。

無論你是延續傳統，還是首次嘗試，希望這個素糉食譜，能為你和家人帶來同樣溫暖的愛意和美味 🥰

詳細做法的影片和完整文字食譜的連結在個人檔案欄 💛

🐉This Saturday marks the Dragon Boat Festival. A day rich in tradition, memory, and the fragrant rustle of bamboo leaves.

My daughter came home early this week, not just to celebrate, but to make Joong (Zongzi) with me for the very first time. As I gently showed her how to fold the leaves, tuck in the fillings, and tie each string meticulously. I was reminded of the times my own mother did the same with me. Hands guiding hands, the recipe from the heart.

This year, we tied more than glutinous rice and fillings inside those parcels. We wrapped in laughter, shared stories, quiet pride, and the kind of joy that only comes from traditions passed down, one generation to the next.

And as if that wasn’t special enough, my daughter also surprised me with the first printed edition of Vittles Magazine, where she is the lead illustrator and created the stunning cover artwork for its 5th anniversary issue. It’s a milestone for her and the magazine, and such a meaningful gift for me. What a moment to hold. Wrapped in leaves, wrapped in love.

Whether you’re continuing a tradition or trying something new, I hope this recipe brings as much warmth and meaning to your table as it does to ours 🥰

✨ 佛誕素食圓遊會
Buddha’s Birthday Celebration Vegetarian Food Fair 🙏

🥢上周末頗為忙碌！在星期日，我有幸被安排為佛誕素食圓遊會義賣準備兩道菜 —— 30 份素咕噜肉和 30 份韓式香菇雜菜腐皮拌冬粉。之前一日和當天大清早時間十分逼切，幸而我的食譜簡單易做，一切都依時順利完成！

以下是根據我原來食譜，作些少修改以致適用於大規模製作的一些小貼士：

🌱素咕嚕肉 — 不需要把一半的烤麵筋泡芙留作其他菜式使用！你可以使用全部份量，做出更多的素豬肉塊，適合為人多的場合烹煮。

🌱韓式香菇雜菜腐皮拌冬粉 — 為了讓味道更豐富，我做了些少更改：將原來食譜中的波特菇（portabella mushroom）換成了乾香菇，香味濃郁，口感特别柔軟多汁；同時把原本的蘆筍和甜椒，換成了高麗菜和木耳，增添清甜爽脆。最後加入許多切絲的煎香腐皮，帶來金黃色澤、豆香美味和肉質的口感。

這兩個食譜都在我們的 YouTube 頻道，大家喜歡的話，不妨有空時試做看看！

🥢 What a weekend it has been! On Sunday, I was honoured with the task of preparing two special dishes for the Buddha‘s birthday feast—30 portions of Vegan Sweet and Sour Pork and 30 portions of Vegan Japchae.

It was a whirlwind of cooking the day before and early on the big day, but thanks to my easy, fool-proof recipes, everything came together smoothly and perfectly!

And here are a couple of tips for scaling up these recipes for larger portions:

🌱 For my Vegan Sweet & Sour Pork – There’s no need to save half of the baked puffs for another dish! You can use the full portion to create even more sweet and sour pork pieces—perfect for feeding a crowd.

🌱 For my Vegan Japchae – I made a few flavour-boosting swaps to suit the occasion: I replaced the portabella mushrooms from the original recipe with dried Chinese shiitake mushrooms for a deeper umami flavour and juicier texture. I also swapped out the asparagus and bell peppers for white cabbage and wood ear fungus, adding a lovely sweetness and extra crunch. To finish, I stirred in plenty of sliced, fried beancurd sheets for their golden colour and satisfyingly meaty bite.

Both recipes are available on our YouTube channel for you to try at home!

🥢 簡單又美味 ~ 少油酥脆韓式蔬菜煎餅
Easy & Delicious ~ Light & Crispy Vegetable Pancakes 😋

這是我健康美味的韓式蔬菜煎餅食譜 (也可以隨意加上你自己做或市售的素肉)，使用較少的油但仍能達到完滿的效果；菜餅上方和邊緣酥脆，內部輕軟、爽脆且多汁。而且是純素食，不含蛋。

由準備蔬菜到上桌只需要 30 分鐘左右，所以非常適合作為簡易的晚餐、配菜、快餐、派對小吃或分享拼盤小菜的好選擇。

This is the 2nd in the new ‘Easy & Delicious Vegan Recipes’ series!

Here is my recipe for a healthy and delicious Korean style vegetable pancake, using less oil yet still achieving the perfect texture; crispy on top and around the edges, soft, crunchy and juicy on the inside. And it’s completely vegan and egg-free.

You can add any of your favourite homemade seitan, or shop bought vegan meat alternatives to replace some of the vegetables, as long as the total weight do not exceed 200g all together for one pancake. You only need to place the thinly sliced strips on top of the pancake after it has started cooking.

It takes just about 30 minutes from prepping the vegetables to serving it on the table, making it an excellent choice as a mid-week dinner, side dish, a quick snack, party treat or as part of a sharing platter.

這星期日是英國的母親節。

女兒將回家和我們渡過一個悠閒的長週末。她說她想請我吃好的，玩好的。我則要求她可以送每一張她最近出版的版畫给我嗎？
這是我女兒為 Vittles 創作繪畫的一系列版畫 (Giclee Art Prints 藝術版畫)。

《Soft Serve》是她與 @vittlesmagazine 合作創作的三幅新畫作之一，以慶祝他們的 5 歲生日。這是它們第一本以印刷形式出版的雜誌《Vittels》第 1 期 ~ 用我女兒的畫作為封面。

另外兩幅分別為「芒果」和「炸味條」。

我喜歡這些畫的色彩、構圖和光影的運用；栩栩如生，確實令人著迷。

為了回謝女兒送給我美麗慷慨的禮物，毫無疑問，她回來時會有很多她最喜歡的食物、小吃、母女購物逛街，以及她爸爸事先精心策劃的戶外活動 —— 都熱切地等待著她。

三款版畫可以在 Vittles 雜誌的網站上購買：(link in bio)

The UK is celebrating Mother‘s Day this Sunday.

My daughter will be coming home to spend the long weekend with us. Despite her desire to spoil and pamper me, I asked her if I could have one each of her new prints instead?

They are a series of prints (Giclee Art Prints) by my daughter for Vittles.

‘Soft Serve’ is one of three new paintings she has created in collaboration with Vittles to celebrate their 5th birthday. And is the front cover of Vittels Issue 1, @vittlemagazine’s first print magazine.

The other two prints are ‘Mango’ and ‘Scampi Fries’.

l love the colour, composition, the way the light and shadow are used in the paintings; it’s truly captivating.

To repay our daughter’s kind and generous gifts to me, no doubt there will be lots of her favourite foods, treats, mother and daughter shopping trip, as well as the outdoor activities her dad meticulously planned in advance - all are awaiting for her on her returns.

All three prints are available to buy from the magazines’ website: (link in bio)
