I am a WAHM and has developed the love for cooking eversince I became a mother. I see cooking as a much needed skill a mom should master because I do not want my family to order tingkat or have to eat out everyday. My mom and MIL has provided alot of tips from time to time. I am so glad a friend of mind added me to Munch Ministry. I am able to learn even more from some really good home chefs. :)

    Hi Diana

    You can get thickening cream from NTUC, GIANT. I have tried using cooking cream or whip cream but the consistency is not as great. Can also use heavy cream. Hope you like it :) .

    Hi Mira

    Yes you can. You may substitute with some chicken stock for the liquid. The cream, mustard and butter will still give you a very nice taste and fragrance.
