For My Children . . . What I Cooked For You, in two volumes, is her third publication. The book is the result of a request by her children who wanted some record of all that had been cooked for them. Many friends had also asked for her to record her recipes, which some had enjoyed trying out. The book is a “different” cook book in that it is full of advice, tips, and notes on how to go about cooking using her recipes. The main idea had been to help the children pick up the way she had cooked their favorite dishes. However, the book should also be useful for anyone learning to cook and for anyone else trying to understand how to cook Malay or Malaysian cuisine.
