    Spicy Pork & Potato Soup

    This is a very simply soup. Naturally you can add other Vegetables and Mushrooms. To add the spiciness, I used Gochujang (Korean Spicy Miso). I am not very good with Chilli, but 1 tablespoon, which seems a lot to me, was a good amount that created enjoyable spiciness. Makes 2 Servings Ingredients 1 to 2 …

    This is my Korean inspired salad dressing. Fresh salad vegetables such as Lettuce and Cucumber, and cooked vegetables such as Spinach and Carrot, are all suitable with this dressing sauce.

    Roasted Parmesan Cauliflower

As King Oyster Mushrooms don’t have strong smell or taste, these crumbed fries can be enjoyed with different flavoured sauces. I found my ‘Curry Ketchup Sauce’ was good. Mexican Salsa and Italian Tomato Sauce were also good. What sauce would you …
