This might be a new way to eat Lamb for you. It is a very simple stir-fry dish. As I always eat it with Rice, I made it into a rice bowl. This stir-fry is absolutely easy. Make the marinade in a mixing bowl, add all ingredients and mix to combine, then stir-fry. Of course, …
To make batter for this type of savoury pancake, I use Plain Flour, Potato Starch and Egg, just like ‘Tempura’ batter. You can use Plain Flour only, OR you may prefer Self-Raising Flour for softer texture. Today I made a large pancake and cut into bite-size pieces. Of course you can make smaller pancakes. Enjoy …

It seems many people are making Banana & Oats Pancakes. Some people use store-bought Oats Flour, some people grind Oats by themselves, and some people use a blender to make the batter.

This dish is called ‘Ebi (Prawns) Macaroni Gratin’ in Japan, as Macaroni are commonly used. It is a very popular dish. However, in Melbourne where I live, Macaroni are very short and small, and I don’t like to use them for this dish. I use other Pasta such as Pennette, Trivelle, Gemelli, etc. You can …
My husband bough a pack of Dried Dates by mistake as he believed they were Prunes. Dates and Prunes are very different, though he didn’t know the difference.
