This salad of Wombok and Chicken can be dressed with any salad dressing of your choice, but this ‘Ponzu’ based simple Sesame Dressing is my favourite. You can’t find Ponzu? Don’t give up to try it because it can be easily substituted with Soy Sauce and Rice Vinegar. Makes 1 to 2 servings Ingredients 2 …
This is a dish that I would want to eat on a very hot day. You can use any Long Pasta OR Noodles of your choice, but I like to use Capellini (Angel Hair Pasta) because it can be cooked very quickly. Other than that, you don’t need to cook anything. Just mix all ingredients …
This is a recreation of the salad that I ate at a restaurant in Port Douglas, Queensland. The salad I ate at the restaurant was mostly Wombok and there were some small Roast Pork pieces with salty crackling in it. It cost me nearly $30 and I felt totally ripped off. With the same cost, …
‘Creme Caramel’ is not the easiest dessert to make. BUT, if for 1 serving, ‘Microwave Creme Caramel’ can be made quickly and easily. Today I replaced a half of Milk with Mascarpone, because I wanted to use up a small amount of leftover Mascarpone. I believe you can use Sour Cream OR Double Cream instead. …
When I was too tired to cook my lunch the other day, I made dish rice dish. I always have Boiled Eggs that my husband makes and stocks in the fridge. I had some leftover blanched Spinach and cooked Rice. I mixed them together, seasoned with Sesame Oil and Soy Sauce, I added Toasted Nori …
When I was cleaning my kitchen pantry yesterday, I found some leftover Savoiardi (Sponge Fingers). There were 12 fingers. They were not enough to make my Super Easy ‘Tiramisu’, so I decided to make these individual Tiramisu Dessert. It is almost identical to my ‘Matcha Tiramisu Dessert’. It is easy to make and impossible to …
‘Soboro’ means crumbled meat in Japanese. Today I cooked Beef Mince into Soboro, and seasoned it with ‘Yakiniku’ (Japanese BBQ) Sauce. If you already have a bottle of Yakiniku Sauce, this rice bowl is super easy to cook, but I included a very simple Yakiniku Sauce recipe. Makes 1 Serving Ingredients 125g Beef MinceOil for …
‘Okayu’, Japanese style Rice Porridge, is often served to someone who is sick in bed. It’s easy to digest, gentle to sore throat OR weakened stomach, and very comforting. Today I added some Mochi Dumplings, that I often add to Rice Soups. Extra calories help you to recover from sickness. Makes 2 Servings Ingredients 1 …
Since I saw a video of someone cooking Chicken Mince wrapped with Rice Paper, I have thought about trying it many times, but I haven’t. Because the process of wetting and softening the Rice Paper was bothering me as I am quite lazy. Today I sandwiched the Chicken Mince with DRY Rice Paper, and pan-fried …
I cooked this ‘Boiled Pork Belly’ for a Ramen topping. As it is only lightly salted and has subtle flavour of Soy Sauce, it is suitable for all flavours of Ramen soup. I rolled the Pork Belly for presentation, but it is optional. It can be enjoyed with your favourite sauce. I like to eat …
Someone gave my husband their homemade Honey. It was totally different quality from the Honey I buy from supermarkets and absolutely delicious. I have been enjoying the Honey with toast, but today I made this mug cake. I cooked it for 80 seconds in my 1000W microwave, and it seemed a little too long. The …
When I don’t want to cook anything, particularly on a hot day, a rice bowl made with a canned fish is a go-to dish. Rice can be cooked by rice cooker. Canned Mackerel doesn’t need to be cooked. Egg needs to be cooked but it can be done very quickly using microwave. It took less …
