    Cheese Stuffed Stewed Hamburgers (Beef Patties)

    This is a variation of my ‘Stewed Hamburgers (Beef Patties)’, which my children loved when they were young. Because I originally cooked the dish for young children, I used Tomato Ketchup and Japanese ‘Tonkatsu’ Sauce for the sauce, that means the sauce is quite sweet.

    Super Easy Blueberry Baked Cheesecake

    My ‘Super Easy Baked Cheesecake’ is literally super easy. If you have a food processor OR reasonably powerful hand mixer, it would be the easiest cheesecake recipe you can find as the biscuit base is optional. Today I added Blueberries.
