Try this Vegan rice bowl dish on meat-free Monday. It’s a very simple dish to cook but it is really yummy and filling. Instead of adding Potato Starch to the sauce at the end of cooking process, coat Tofu pieces with Potato Starch first, so that the Potato Starch layer will become jelly like and …
One of the true ‘Super Food’ is Sardines. Fresh Sardines are not cheap in Melbourne where I live, but Canned Sardines won’t cost me much. You can make a rice bowl dish like this one quickly and easily using just 1 can. Some people say Canned Sardines smell fishy. OK, they smell fishy, but you …
My ‘Basic Butter Cake’ is a very easy cake. What you need to do is just mixing ingredients very well. Today I replaced Buttermilk with Sour Cream, and I added Lemon Juice and Zest. The cake cracked a little and I was disappointed. Well… it doesn’t really matter if the cake cracked. I covered it …
Here is another simple stir-fry dish that you can try. I like to use Chicken Breast Fillet for this dish, but you can use Thigh Fillet OR Tenderloins instead. Pork OR Beef can be used. You might be familiar with the flavour of this stir-fry as many Chinese takeaway stores sell dishes in this flavour. …
I make Bavarois desserts always based on my ‘Basic Bavarois’ recipe. Add extra ingredients such as pureed Fruit, so that you can make a variety of Bavarois desserts. Today I used 1 can Peach Slices. I pureed the drained Peach Slices and added 1/2 cupful of it to Bavarois mixture, and used the remaining puree …
This is a very yummy sauce, that is particularly good for Rice Paper Rolls. A local Asian Food takeaway store sells best Rice Paper Rolls and they always offer a small tub of sauce. As they don’t teach me how to make it, I tried to recreate it. This sauce is pretty close to theirs. …
When I first made this cake, it was to use up a can of Coconut Cream, which I bought by mistake. I often use Coconut Milk for cooking, but not Coconut Cream. Because of the high oil content of Coconut Cream, I didn’t add Butter to this cake. I didn’t add Flour either. I made …
The other day, I baked ‘Coconut Cake’. As it was made with Desiccated Coconut, it had grainy texture. Some people like the grainy texture of Coconut Cake, but some people don’t. So, today I made this cake without Desiccated Coconut. It’s actually based on my ‘Pancakes‘ recipe. I used Coconut Milk and added some melted …
Many people bake Chicken Wings (Drumettes & Wingettes) in the oven, but these small pieces are easy to cook in a frying pan, and it is energy efficient. This dish is super easy and I am sure your family and friends would enjoy. The recipe includes a sauce made with Oyster Sauce, but actually you …
The other day, when I was making Caramel to make ‘Coffee Creme Caramel’, I realised that I could make ‘Almond Toffee’ much easier. I usually cook Butter and Sugar together until the mixture turns brown, but I could cook just Sugar first, then add Butter and Almonds. I tried to make ‘Almond Toffee’ in that …
Pan-fried Sausage and Egg, you may wish to eat it with toasted Bread OR fried Potato. It is actually nice with Rice, too. You can enjoy this Rice Bowl with any sauce you like, but I have found Curry Sauce is the best. You don’t want to cook Curry Sauce just for this dish. Try …
This is a yummy ‘Otsumami’, that is something you eat with alcoholic drinks. I reckon chilled beer would be great. I like to eat it with freshly cooked rice, too. If you chop up Walnuts finely, this can be a sauce for grilled Tofu, Chicken, etc. I sometimes add Chilli. How would you enjoy it? …
