Recently I have been cooking this dish repeatedly. The mixture of Prawns and Onion is supposed to be deep-fried, but I am reluctant to use a lot of oil since the accident I burnt my face with hot oil. I cook it with a generous amount of oil using a frying pan. It’s safe and …
Today I wanted to use up leftover Pistachios that were already ground. First I thought about making Puff Pastry Pinwheel Biscuits, but I didn’t have Puff Pastry. I absolutely didn’t want to bother making it, then I decided to make my ‘Easiest Sweet Shortcrust Pastry’. I used Egg Yolk for the pastry, so I used …
In Japan where I grew up, Azuki (Red Beans) is most commonly used to make sweets, but I often use Azuki for savoury dishes such as ‘Azuki Rice’ and ‘Azuki & Carrot Salad’. Azuki can be cooked without soaking them in water to rehydrate, but it is a good idea to soak them for even …
This comforting Ramen Soup is super easy to cook. It can be more nutritious if you add extra ingredients such as green leafy vegetables. Today I used just Egg and Spring Onion. DO NOT season the soup too strongly as you are supposed to eat all of it. Makes 1 Serving Ingredients 1 serving Ramen …
Since Sushi Rolls became very popular in Melbourne where I live, I often come across unique Sushi Rolls. One of my favourites is Chicken ‘Katsu’ Rolls. One day I craved it but I didn’t want to bother making Sushi Rolls, so I made a Sushi Rice Bowl using the same ingredients. Chicken ‘Katsu’ (Fried Crumbed …
The salty Anchovy, Garlic and Olive Oil, what a great combination! Today I stir-fried Cabbage and Onion with those three great things, and made this Frittata, cooked in my rice cooker as always. Absolutely simple. No fancy ingredients are necessary, but it was DELICIOUS!!! I could have added some Parsley. Makes 4 Servings Ingredients About …
‘Takuan’, Japanese Pickled Daikon, is commonly coloured yellow, but this quick and easy ‘Takuan’ is not coloured. I actually like this natural version better. Some people prefer fairly sweet flavour, but I don’t like it too sweet. If you like sweeter flavour, just add extra Sugar. Makes 8 Servings Ingredients 12cm Daikon *about 250g after …
This is the third time I cooked this quick and easy soup of Iceberg Lettuce. Every time I cooked it, I used more Lettuce than last time. Today I added 150g and it looked too much, but it was not. I could have added more. That’s because the volume of Iceberg Lettuce is reduced significantly …
The key ingredient of this dish is Iceberg Lettuce. Pork can be replaced with Chicken, OR Seafood such as Squid OR Prawns. If you want to cook more servings, you can simply multiply the recipe. For one serving, you cook 150g Iceberg Lettuce and it might look too much, but you must remember the volume …
Newly harvested Onions are juicy and sweet. This simple recipe is to enjoy those Onions, but, of course, you can cook this dish with not-so-new Onions. This is a ‘Takikomigohan’, a Japanese dish of Rice that is cooked with all other ingredients and seasonings. Using a ricer cooker, ‘Takikomigohan’ is super easy to cook. This …
Stir-fried anything with Garlic & Chilli is delicious. Today I stir-fried Daikon with Garlic & Chilli, and I added Dried Shelled Shrimps that adds extra Umami to the dish. I used Salt to season it, but you may wish to use Soy Sauce instead, and that would be delicious, too. Makes 2 to 3 Servings …
I made this Cheesecake based on my ‘No-Bake Yoghurt Cheesecake’. I added ‘Microwave Blueberry Sauce’ to it. This Cheesecake is set with Gelatine. It looks pretty and it is very easy to make. If you don’t have Yoghurt, you can make it based on ‘Basic No-Bake Cheesecake’. In that case, you need to halve the …
