Support
Hi, I am rose’s son and I manage this website for her. You may have noticed that this website is a replicate of roseskitchen at wordpress. I decided to set up a separate, self-hosted site because there were a number of features that we wanted to make available that we could not do on wordpress.com. We wanted anyone to be able to access a recipe quickly and print it out or email it to a friend. (I don’t cook with my laptop in the kitchen, so I’m assuming most people don’t) We could not do this on wordpress.com.
Future plans:
As my mum continues to add her favourite recipes, sifting through the increasing number of recipes will become more difficult. I am working on a better way to catalogue and organize recipes. We are also working on adding more pictures and possibly introduce browsing by pictures.
How you can support:
1. Encouragement - If you have enjoyed the recipes, please feel free to give my mum some encouragement and positive feedback. She loves receiving notes of encouragement and always writes back (if you’re nice). You can email her here.
2. Technical expertise - If you have comments or suggestions on how to improve roseskitchenette.com, you can email the webmaster (me).
3. Share a recipe - you can email us your recipe if you would like your recipe to appear on this blog. Please include your name and a link to your site if you would like so that we can give you full credit.
Other ways to support:
Running this site costs about $70 a year. The hosting is $60 a year and the domain name is about $10 a year. Any donations to help defray these costs would be appreciated. You can donate here (paypal):
Thanks!
Mark
Recommendations:
- We use www.site5.com for hosting and godaddy.com for domain registration. Did you know that google apps uses godaddy too?

Hi Rose, do you have a good recipe for a rich dense moist chocolate cake, with or without fudge frosting? And a recipe for the chocolate gelatine topping/filling that I see on some cakes, if that is what it is?
Thanks a lot, Veronica

Hi, just to let you know how pleased I am to discover your recipes. I am a Malaysian living in Cardiff, UK. I miss Malaysian food and have been scouring around for recipes so that me, wife and my children can enjoy and recall the good old times. Keep up the good work!
Comment by Derek Tan | January 23, 2008
This is major discovery indeed for me. Am I excited! The recipes look like absolutely gems, authentic Malaysian.
Also, the personal background of this site touches my heart. What a giving person you are, Rose, and what a thoughtful son! The ambience of love fills me with inspiration.
Am so looking forward to visiting here frequently.

Hi
Just wondering if there is a way of formatting so that when you print… the ingredients will print on one page and the instructions will print on the second page whereas right now the instructions start on the first page and continue on the second page.
Many thanks for the website!!

Dear Aunty Rose,
Like the others, just stumble into your website. Me too would like to thank you for sharing your recipes. Living in France for the past few years, missed the local food very much. Now at least i’m able to catch up what i’ve missed. May God Bless you too and hope that you continue to share your talents with others.

Hi Rose
We’re keen to attempt your recipe for fried mee siam. However we’re Jewish and therefore not able to cook with belachan or shrimp (both of which aren’t Kosher). Could you kindly recommend a substitute, if any. Thanks for sharing your wonderful recipes. Be well.
Cheers

Hi Melissa,
You can omit the belachan. As for dried shrimps sometimes I substitute with small dried anchovies in my other dishes.
Wish you a Blessed New Year 2010!

Hi Rose,
I have been searching the recipe for “popiah skin” for a very long time. Do you have the recipe for me?
Comment by Ashley See | February 12, 2010
I thoroughly enjoy your reservoir of recipes which I am endeavouring to try bit by bit.
However, I am searching desperately for the Tau Sar Pau recipe. My husband is constantly disappointed whenever he goes to the pau stall and on sinking his teeth into what they call “tau sar” actually is red beans. He remembers the good old days when tau sar pau was authentically black, and he has challenged me to make some. Can you help?

Hi Rose,
Have been following your blog and experimented some of your wonderful recipes. Thanks so much for sharing. Like other bloggers who lived all over the world; words can’t express much how we missed the directions and missed homecooked food. You not only shared the recipes; you have also indirectly encouraged us to cook. For me, it feels like having a wonderful friend next to me; teaching and guiding me. I’m forever indebted to your sincere sharing. About the support;
can I send a cheque to you instead of going thru paypal? I just wanted to send you something as a gift for my appreciation.
Sincerely,
Nancy

Dear Rose
I stumbled upon your site adter searching for an agar agar recipe. I must say it feels like striking gold. I live in the Netherlands and it feels so good to have access to Malaysian home cooked recipes. I hope to try many of your recipes and bring a taste of ‘home’ to my home here.
Thank you for sharing your recipes!!!
