The other day, I caved ‘Scrambled Eggs with Nametake Enoki’, but I didn’t have ‘Nametake Enoki’. I only had some leftover Enoki. So I cooked a rice bowl that was similar to what I wanted to eat, and it was actually delicious. Today I cooked it again to take this photo, so that I can …
This is a variation of my ‘Basic Custard’. Because Lemon Juice is added to it, more Sugar and Flour are necessary. I tend to add Butter to this Custard because I believe Butter improve the lemon flavour, but Butter is optional. It can be used for a variety of desserts. Ingredients 1 cup (250ml) Milk3 …
One of my family’s favourite dishes is ‘Stir-fried Tomato & Egg’. Today I added Prawns to it and made this rice bowl for my lunch. I wanted to eat something spicy, so I added Chilli Flakes. I was afraid I added too much but it was quite enjoyable. As I use Chilli for cooking a …
This is one of the dishes I frequently cook for my family, and everyone enjoys it. When I bought Tomatoes and realised they were not ripe and sour, I would most likely cook this dish. You can add extra ingredients such as Tofu, Prawns, Black Fungus, etc. If you added extra ingredients, just add extra …
To make Basic Custard, I use 2 to 3 Egg Yolks for 1 cup Milk, and that makes lovely yellow custard. However, that means I will have 2 to 3 Egg Whites to use up later. That’s bothersome sometimes. Here is a recipe for Whole Egg Custard. The colour of the custard is not very …
This is a quick & easy dish, that can be enjoyed as a soup, OR you can pour it over freshly cooked Rice or Noodles. It is low in calories and healthy. I don’t use Oil at all, but a few drops of Sesame Oil could add a flavour. Please use soft type Tofu such …
One of my family’s favourite dinner menus is Stir-fried Tomatoes. The essential ingredients are Tomatoes, Garlic and Soy Sauce. Today I added Egg and Harusame Noodles (Bean Thread Noodles). Harusame Noodles sucked up the yummy sauce and they were absolutely delicious! This recipe is supposed to be for 4 servings but I ate half of …
I love ‘Black Fungus’, that is an edible wood fungus similar to mushrooms. It’s a bad naming, isn’t it? You may call it by a different name. This is a quick and easy rice bowl, but it takes time to soften Dried Black Fungus. Start soaking them in water at least 30 minutes before you …
Cook an Omelette and place it on warm cooked Rice, and pour the Sauce over. This dish can be made with Egg and Rice only, but I believe you have something to add to the Omelette. Today I added 1 Spring Onion and 1 Shiitake. Maybe you have Peas, OR Garlic Chives, etc. This is …
When I don’t want to cook anything, particularly on a hot day, a rice bowl made with a canned fish is a go-to dish. Rice can be cooked by rice cooker. Canned Mackerel doesn’t need to be cooked. Egg needs to be cooked but it can be done very quickly using microwave. It took less …
This French hot sandwich is my newest discovery. It’s a ham and cheese sandwich, but made with White Sauce (Béchamel Sauce), and it is baked in the oven. If you omit the Egg, it seems the sandwich is called ‘Croque Monsieur’. I like it with Egg. I sometimes add sliced Tomato, OR Avocado. This is …
This dish is inspired by a Japanese dish called ‘Kawara Soba’ (瓦そば), but I don’t fry Noodles and this is much simpler. I like to use ‘Cha Soba’, Matcha Soba Noodles, because of its green colour. You can use ordinary Soba Noodles OR Thin Udon Noodles instead. The dish can be enjoyed cold OR warm, …
