When I make Sago (Seed Tapioca) Pudding set in mould(s), I always add some Gelatine as well, so that the pudding won’t fail. If set in serving glasses, Gelatine is unnecessary as the pudding can be soft. That’s what I learned when I made ‘Pineapple Sago Pudding’. Today I made this tropical flavoured Coconut Milk …
Beans are not expensive and nutritious. As food prices soar, it might be a good idea to start eating more Beans. This is a super simple salad of Beans. I added a small can of Tuna as well. Chickpeas and other Beans can be used, but I used Cannellini (White Beans). You may wish to …
‘Takikomigohan’ is a Japanese dish of Rice that is cooked with other ingredients and seasonings. I have used a variety of Canned Fish to cook ‘Takikomigohan’, but never used Kippers. So, I tried.

Melbourne, where I live, has a very large Greek population. Actually Greek community of Melbourne is the largest Greek-speaking population outside of Greece and Cyprus.

This is a variation of my ‘Cold Ramen Noodle Salad’. Salad ingredients can be placed on top of noodles decoratively, but they can be mixed with the noodles like this one. Today I used Soba Noodles instead of Ramen Noodles. Rice Noodles are also good. This type of noodle salad dish is something I want …
This is a typical Japanese home-cooked dish. It is quite popular, I often cook it, but probably you have never seen it as you won’t come across a dish like this at Japanese restaurants. Use Pork Belly for this dish, so that Kombu absorbs its fat and ‘umami’. You need to simmer until Kombu is …

I am proud of my ‘Azuki Scones’. I think they are delicious, and they are one of my favourite Scones. However, my husband hates Sweet Azuki Paste. I know many Europeans people don’t enjoy Azuki Beans cooked very sweet like fruit jam. Today I was actually thinking of making Azuki Sones, which my husband won’t …
‘Garlic, Butter & Soy Sauce’, this combination goes so well with Meat, Chicken, Fish, Pasta, Rice, Potato, Corn, and so many things.
