Today I craved a Matcha flavoured cake. If it is just for myself, the quickies and easiest option is a mug cake. I used Cream Cheese instead of Butter, but the flavour of the Cream Cheese was not strong. This cake is not very sweet, so enjoy it with Vanilla Ice Cream, Muscovado Syrup, Maple …
As many people use Short Pasta to make salads, I often use Spaghetti, that I usually snapped to 5-6cm in length. Today I used whole Spaghetti to make this ‘Prawn Spaghetti Salad’.

I stopped buying it, and I make Roti Bread by my easy method. This recipe is based on my ‘Spring Onion Flatbread’ recipe. I simply replaced Sesame Oil with …

I used to cook this dish with Japanese thin noodles called ‘Somen’, but I use Capellini (Angel Hair Pasta) these days, because Capellini is much easier to find, cheaper, and I like its texture.
