Fremantle, often seen as the jewel in Perth's crown, teased me with promises of captivating maritime tales, striking Victorian buildings, and echoes of Australia's past as a British penal colony. Stories whispered through time hinted at a city steeped in history, with secrets hidden in its streets dating back to the 1850s.

Tempe Orek (Indonesian Spicy Fermented Soy Beans)
Fermented soybeans, known as tempeh or tempe, are a
fantastic meat alternative for vegetarians and vegans. Packed with health
benefits, tempeh is a staple in local Malay and Indonesian dishes. I'm a huge
fan of tempeh and use it all the time in my cooking, especially because I love
Malay and Indonesian food. You’ll often find me at Malay stalls, loading up on
their delicious offerings.
Today, I'm featuring a tempeh dish - an Indonesian recipe that's perfect for vegetarians and vegans. Let me share my passion for tempeh and show you how to incorporate it into your savory dishes.

Perth, Australia: Cruises, Parks, and Culinary Experiences
Perth (PERTH PART 1). My journey wasn't over yet. Eager for more, I decided to explore some sights. I
checked online and picked a few spots at random - no set plan, just ready for whatever
came my way. Besides sightseeing, I was keen to try the food. Ah, the foodie in
me couldn't wait! Let's get started.
Cruising Adventures in Mandurah
By mid-morning, I found myself in Mandurah, just an hour's drive from Perth. Getting there wasn't without its little bumps, but hey, I made it in one piece. Opting for the Dolphin Lunch Cruise turned out to be a fantastic idea. I've always had a thing for being near water, and this cruise didn't disappoint. The views were mesmerizing, and the Fish and Chips they served up were just perfect - crispy on the outside, tender inside. Dining against such a picturesque backdrop really took the whole experience up a notch.

Savouring Mutton: Spices and All Things Nice
Now, about cooking mutton. The ones I buy tend to be tough, making them hard to chew and eat after cooking, which hurts our gums and teeth. If you also buy tough mutton, you should start any mutton dish by pressure cooking it. If the mutton you buy is tender, you might not need to pressure cook it.
