    Fried Egg Spaghetti

    In Japan, there is a super quick & easy dish called ‘Tamago Gohan’, that means ‘Egg Rice’. You just add a raw Egg and a little bit of Soy Sauce to hot Rice in a rice bowl, then mix it. The Egg would be slightly cooked by the heat. Nothing can be easier than this, …

    Lamb Kofta Kebabs

    I often use Dry Mixed Herbs and Black Pepper to season ‘My Family’s Lamb Koftas’, but, of course, other Spices and Herbs can be used. Today I seasoned it in the middle eastern flavour (I believe it is) and tried to make it into Kebabs. I even purchased long and thick bamboo BBQ skewers for …

    Chocolate Salami (No Egg)

    Here is an old recipe from my recipe notebook. This Chocolate Salami is made with No-Egg and No-Cream. I found the original recipe in a book many years ago, but it didn’t work well. I reduced the amount of Butter. As it was very bitter, I reduced the amount of Cocoa Powder and started adding …

    Stir-fried Coriander

    If you think Coriander tastes like soap, you would never enjoy Coriander because your taste perception is different. You have particular receptors that find Coriander tastes yucky. If you find Coriander’s smell is just overwhelming, it might be a good idea to stir-fry it, as the smell is significantly reduced when cooked. Today I added …

    Panettone Style Sweet Bread

    At Christmas time every year, I wanted to make Panettone, but I have never tried it. Because I didn’t have a suitable cake tin and didn’t want to buy rather expensive Panettone paper cases. The other day, when I was making a soup, I looked at the saucepan and thought it was a good size …

    Pan-fried Garlic Butter Broccoli with Soy Sauce

    To cook Broccoli, steam-frying in a frying pan is the easiest method. Today I used Butter instead of Oil and seasoned with Soy Sauce. ‘Butter & Soy Sauce’ is a great combination and anything tastes good in the flavour. This is another super quick and easy Broccoli dish. Makes 4 Servings Ingredients 1 large head …

  • Gyoza Tofu & Soy Protein

    Vegan Tofu Gyoza

    I have recently reviewed my old ‘Vegetarian Gyoza’ recipe, that was made with Tofu and Wombok. Once I thought it was good enough, but I found the texture of the filing was too soft, and I decided to change the recipe. I thought Cabbage would work better than Wombok, then I created a new Vegetarian …

    Spinach Risotto – Rice Cooker Method

    I hesitated to call this dish ‘Risotto’, but it is basically rice-cooker version of ‘Risotto’, and it tastes pretty good and texture is also good if you use ‘Quick Cook’ setting. Computerised Rice Cookers are so smart and they can do many things. However, they can get confused and stop cooking too soon when you …
