I make ‘Cinnamon Rolls’ using my ‘Basic Sweet Bread Dough’, that is easy to make and right amount for baking in 20cm OR 22cm square tin. Today I added Coffee to the dough. And also I made Icing with Coffee instead of Milk. If you like stronger Coffee flavour, you can use finely ground Coffee …
I am from Okayama, Japan. One of the popular local foods in Okayama is ‘Ebimeshi’ (えびめし), Prawn Fried Rice, that is in blackish dark colour. You need the special ‘Ebimeshi Sauce’ to cook it, but it is impossible to get it in Melbourne where I live. I have been trying to make my own sauce …
Since last year’s kitchen accident when I burnt my face with hot oil, I am still reluctant to fry food in hot oil. I baked these Spring Rolls in the oven. You may prefer frying them. I believe fried ones taste better, but these baked ones are healthier, and it is much easier to clean …
This is another variation of my ‘Basic Plain Rice Cooker Cake’. I used Coconut Milk and added Desiccated Coconut. As the cake batter became too thick, I added extra Egg. Same as other Rice Cooker Cakes, the top side of the Cake can’t be browned, but it looks fine when flipped over. Makes I used …
I often make a rice bowl dish using a small can of Sardines for my lunch. I have shared some recipes on this website and all of them are quick and easy to make. This one is not too quick because you need to wash Choy Sum and cut it. Still this rice bowl can …
To make this soup, I simply added Prawns and Potato to a basic corn soup. I used frozen shelled Prawns because it is the easiest for me to find. You can use other seafood such as White Fish OR Scallops. This thick soup is absolutely easy to make, and it is gluten free as it …
Yesterday I decided to make ‘My Legendary Carrot Cake’ but I didn’t have Pineapple. Pineapple is an essential ingredient for the cake, then I tried to make something different based on the recipe. I grated Sweet Potato instead of Carrots, added more spices, and I ended up with this cake. I halved the Sugar for …
Today I want to share my embarrassingly quick and easy recipe for this Fried Rice, that is cooked in microwave. It takes less than 5 minutes to cook including preparation time and you don’t need a frying pan. You only need a heat-proof bowl and microwave. Today I used Pork and Spring Onion, but you …
The authentic ‘Crab Takikomigohan’ is cooked with some Crab Legs, but it’s not easy for me to find Crab Legs where I live. Using a small can of Crab Meat, this rice dish can be made quickly and easily, and it is delicious enough to me. You may wish to use imitation Crab Meat, but …
The other day my husband asked me to make cake or something for staff members of the tool shop where he works. This is what I made for them. I basically added a can of Apple Slices and Cinnamon to my Basic Plain Cupcakes, and topped with Cinnamon Crumble. It can’t go wrong, can it? …
On a hot summer day, I often want to eat cold noodles. Honestly I don’t want to cook anything, but Angel Hair Pasta (Capellini) is good as it can be cooked in a few minutes. You don’t need to cook anything else to make this dish. Just combine everything with cooked and cooled Angel Hair …
I often cook cakes using my 10 cup capacity rice cooker which has ‘Cake’ setting and inner pot is 20cm in diameter. This is the Basic Rice Cooker Cake recipe. You can create a variety of cakes based on this recipe. Depending on the additional ingredients, I alter the amount of Flour. Makes I used …
