‘Tatusta-agé’ is a very popular method of cooking Fish in Japan. Marinated Fish are coated with Potato Starch, then deep-fried. Marinade is often made with grated fresh Ginger.

I was a little disappointed with these ‘Earl Grey Tea Scones’. I expected the Scone would smell amazing, but the fragrance of Earl Grey Tea was not strong. It was subtle, but still beautiful.

The other day my daughter asked me if I had a recipe for ‘No-Egg Tiramisu’. I though the cream can be made without Eggs, but how could I make Sponge Fingers without Eggs? That’s the beginning of my challenge to create ‘No-Egg Sponge’ recipe. I got a hint from ‘Theo’s Sponge’, that is made with …
My ‘Seafood Cocktail Sauce’ can be used as a salad dressing. It goes well with many Seafood, but my favourite is Prawns. Today I cooked Prawns and Cauliflower, and just drizzled with the Seafood Cocktail Sauce. The hardest part of this dish is getting the sauce ingredients. If you use already cooked Prawns, this dish …
