Mackerel is my favourite fish and I particularly love John West’s canned Mackerel in Brine. Anything with the Mackerel in it is delicious to me, though my husband says it smells fishy. So I cooked this Mackerel Fried Rice just for me. This is a very simple fried rice, quick and easy, and absolutely delicious. …
Well… this dish is not fried, so I shouldn’t name it Fried Rice, but it is almost the same as typical Fried Rice. It is extremely easy to prepare if you have a rice cooker. You don’t need to stand in front of hot cooktop. Place everything in the rice cooker’s inner pot and press …
When I make ‘My Family’s Yakiniku Sauce’, I always make a large amount, because ‘Yakiniku’ Sauce is very versatile and can be used for many dishes. It is best to use for seasoning stir-fry Meat & Vegetable, but it is a perfect sauce to season fried rice, too. You only need ‘Yakiniku’ Sauce, and nothing …
I used to cook this dish using already seasoned Dry Rice Vermicelli in Japan. A company called ‘Kenmin Foods’ produces delicious Rice Vermicelli products. I recently saw the products on the internet and I was nostalgic. I tried to cook the dish using commonly available unseasoned Dry Rice Vermicelli. I seasoned it simply and the …
‘Chikuwa’ is a tube-shape Japanese fishcake made from Surimi (fish paste). As Chikuwa was much cheaper than chicken or meat, my mother often used it for many dishes. This fried rice is one of them.

Sweet and sour flavour of Pickled Sliced Ginger (aka Sushi Ginger) goes well with oily Pork. But you can replace Pork with Chicken or Beef. I like topping with extra Pickled Ginger. If you like spicy food, you may wish to add Chilli, but too much chilli would spoil the delicate flavour of Pickled Ginger. …
In Japan, most commonly Sausages are used for this fried rice dish, but I use any protein that I have in hand. This time I used a thick slice of Ham. Curry Powder that I use is a quite spicy one. You may wish to add more or less, but do not forget the Soy …
This ‘Prawn & Egg Fried Rice’ is not a particularly special dish, but I like lettuce leaves in it. Many people do not cook lettuce. Why don’t you try cooking lettuce? The crispy lettuce adds a fantastic texture to the fried rice. Cos lettuce or Iceberg lettuce are recommended. Makes 2 Servings Ingredients 100g Prawns1/2 …
I am going to share a simple but very versatile ‘Spring Onion & Garlic Sauce’. To make the sauce, you need five ingredients that are Spring Onion, Garlic, Sesame Oil, Salt and White Pepper. Depending on the dish you use the sauce for, you can add Vinegar, Lemon/Lime Juice, Sesame Seeds, Soy Sauce or Chilli …
I am writing this recipe for my son and daughter. When they were young, I cooked this Egg-only fried rice quite often because they asked me to cook it. They say it was one of their favourites and they are still fond of it. I always use dried Chopped Chives for this dish, and another …
If you have ‘Ham, Egg & Lettuce’, you can make this simple rice bowl. Follow the recipe and stick to it. I am sure you will think the amount of Lettuce is too much, but it is not. The volume of the Lettuce will be reduced significantly when cooked, you might wish if you have …

I bought a small bottle …
