Instead of heading out for dinner or lunch this year, why not treat mum to a lovingly-made homecooked meal instead? The Singapore Heart Foundation teamed up with MasterChef Asia finalist Chef Lennard Yeong to create sumptuous and heart-healthy Mother's Day recipes.
Eight years ago, the former engineer-turned-chef was diagnosed with a heart condition, Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, which causes rapid heartbeat. Thankfully, he managed to rectify it after undergoing surgery.
Nonetheless, the event propelled him to adopt a more heart-healthy lifestyle, which eventually led to the creation of these delicious Mother's Day recipes. The four-course menu includes a light and refreshing soba dish, a chicken-centric dish, a salmon and quinoa dish and an icy dessert that's sure to satisfy mum.

This restaurant-worthy dish is sure to impress mum and make you wonder how you did that. Plus, it uses the healthiest part of the chicken - the breast - but doesn't compromise on taste, thanks to a delish ginger-scallion sauce and lotus root chip topping.

Quinoa contains healthy fats that can help boost the "good cholesterol" in your body, making it a nutritious option for people with diabetes too. Top it off with a slab of salmon that's rich in omega-3 fatty acids!
