This dish is a simple version of my ‘Pork, Chorizo & Black Bean Stew’, but I didn’t add Black Beans because I wanted to serve it with ‘Cuban Inspired Black Bean Rice’. This dish is absolutely easy to cook. Alter the amount of Ground Chilli to suit your taste. I added 1/4 teaspoon and it …
This recipe has been inspired by a Cuban rice dish, ‘Arroz Congri’. I cooked it in my rice cooker just like Japanese ‘Takikomigohan’, so it is super easy to cook. The colour of the dish is supposed to be darker, but the liquid from the can of Black Beans that I used was not really …
Avocado and Prawns are supposed to be dressed with Seafood Cocktail Sauce. If you have Seafood Cocktail Sauce, you can use it. Today I made a super quick and easy sauce with Japanese Mayonnaise, Ketchup and Tabasco. The sauce tasted good enough to me. This is another simple yet delicious rice bowl dish. Makes 1 …
Today I had some leftover Coconut Milk. I also had some leftover Condensed Milk. I found a recipe of Coconut Ice Cream that can be made with Coconut Milk and Condensed Milk, so I tried it. But I didn’t like the result. The texture was heavy and I found it too sweet. I mixed with …
For this Harusame Soup, Chicken can be replaced with Pork OR Beef. I often add Ginger to Wakame Soup, but I added Garlic to this soup. This is a Korean inspired version of Wakeme Soup. Add Harusame Noodles (Bean Thread Noodles) to the seasoned soup. Noodles get cooked very quickly and make this soup more …
This recipe is actually almost identical to my ‘Fruit Tart’. I simply increased the amount of Almond Cream to fill the tart case, and covered it with Almond Flakes. This is a very simple tart. If you use a smaller tart pan, I recommend my ‘Easiest Sweet Shortcrust Pastry’. Almond Cream can be made with …
This is another variation of my Pound Cake. I added Zest and Juice of 1 fresh Orange. It can be baked in a round cake tin, but it always cracks. It is better to bake it in a loaf tin, so that the centre crack actually looks good. I drizzled with Orange Icing for the …
This is a quick and easy Risotto recipe for busy people. Computerised rice cookers are so smart and they can do many things. If your rice cooker has ‘Quick Cook’ setting, please use it for ‘al dente’ result. It’s a great idea to add some sliced Mushrooms as well. You may wish to add Baby …
This is not my invention. The person who first made this dessert probably did it by accident. This jelly naturally separates into two layers. I assume the acid in Orange Juice does the magic. Other sour fruit juices such as Apple juice OR Pineapple juice should work as well. You might be interested in experimenting …
A quick, easy and healthy dish, that’s what I want to cook for my lunch. I cook Harusame Soup very often, because it is absolutely ‘quick, easy and healthy’. Today I made this Pho Inspired Chicken & Harusame Soup, and it was so good. Dry Harusame Noodles can be cooked in the seasoned soup very …
I have shared some Yoghurt Ice Cream recipes on this website. This is certainly the easies one. One day, when I had some leftover Yoghurt, whipped Cream and homemade Cherry Jam, I mixed them all together and made a simple dessert for myself, and it was actually really yummy. Today I made them into Ice …
This is a variation of Kombu ‘Tsukudani’, which is a very popular food and we Japanese eat it with freshly cooked Rice, but you would never come across it at Japanese restaurants. Today I added Enoki, and this is a dish of Kombu ‘Tsukudani’ and ‘Nametake’ Enoki combined. I love both. If you have Kombu …
