Have you tried the shrimp with oyster sauce in the archive yet? I urge you to make it ASAP. It is one of my mother's signature dishes and I promise you, once you've tried it, you'll never want shrimp any other way again. Big words, I know, but I proudly stand by my mom's cooking.

Liver and Gizzard with cream, quail eggs and sweet peas

As I've said before, my mother is not one who cooked on a regular basis. She is fastidious about matters of cleanliness and housekeeping but to find her in the kitchen preparing a meal meant celebration, literally. She's cooking, there's a party. The house help manages the day to day dinner but come special occasions, my mother puts on her apron and dazzles. Growing up, I remember three things she always made for festivities: shrimp with oyster sauce, rellenong pusit and this liver and gizzard with green peas. There is nothing really fancy about this offal dish as liver and gizzard are pretty cheap meat but with the combination of cream, quail eggs and sweet peas, it's definitely the first that empties on the buffet table. Give it a try and let me know what you think.

Liver and Gizzard with Green Peas is an affordable and hearty dish that's perfect for a family dinner
