Last several days, I have been thinking of what I should make with a can of Crab Meat. I bought it to make ‘Crab Omelette Rice Bowl’. I always make the same thing with it. I wanted to make something suitable for the festive season, then I made this Dip. It is almost as good …
In Melbourne where I live, Oysters are pricy, they are rather small, and always available on the half shell to be eaten raw. But, you know what? When we purchase them from shops, they are not super fresh any more and they often smell fishy. I don’t like to eat those Oysters raw. These Baked …
‘Takikomigohan’ is a Japanese dish of Rice that is cooked with other ingredients and seasonings. There are some very traditional ones and this is one of them. To cook a ‘Takikomigohan’, everything is supposed to be cooked together, but you won’t cook Clams with Rice together for this particular dish. You cook Calms in a …
A type of Clam that is called ‘Asari’ in Japan is commonly used for this dish. There are a variety of edible shellfish in Japan and they are available even from supermarkets. But here in Melbourne, commonly available shellfish are Oysters and Mussels. Today I found frozen ‘Asari’ and I cooked them for the first …
‘Doria’ is a very popular rice dish in Japan. Butter Rice or Pilaf is covered with White Sauce (Béchamel Sauce) and grated Cheese, then baked in the oven. I often cook ‘Doria’ when I want to use up leftover Cooked Rice, but I cooked Rice just for this dish today and made Carrot Rice. You …
‘Takikomigohan’ is a Japanese dish of Rice that is cooked with other ingredients and seasonings. If you have a rice cooker, it is super easy to cook.

When I purchase a bag of frozen seafood mix, Mussels are most likely included. I always remove Mussels because my family members don’t like them. Therefore, I often end up having leftover frozen Mussels that I need to cook for myself. I often cook ‘Tsukuidani’, but today I cooked them with Rice. If you have …
I bought a bag of Frozen Scallops, that was on special at a supermarket. Seafood are generally expensive where I live, but sometimes I find good quality seafood at a good price. I always cook Scallops in the same Garlic Butter & Soy Sauce flavour. Today I cooked with Miso and Toban Djan (Chilli Bean …
I have cooked Scallops in different flavours, but my absolute favourite flavour for sure is ‘Garlic Butter and Soy Sauce’. This simple combination does a magic, and it is also very versatile. You can add extra ingredients to it, for example, you may wish to add Chilli. Makes 1 Serving Ingredients 100g Scallops *pat dried …
This dish has been inspired by a European style dish of Clams that I saw on the internet. Clams were cooked with Garlic & Tomato. I instantly thought about adding Soy Sauce and Toban Djan (Chilli Bean Sauce) to that dish. Added Spring Onion instead of Herbs. This is an Asian style dish of Clams. …
The other day, we bought Fish & Chips and some Fried Seafood from a local Fish & Chips shop. It cost us a lot and we were totally disappointed. The food was not worth the money we spent. Today I cooked this amount of Beer Battered Fried Seafood using Marinara Mix (Seafood Mix) that I …
Drying is a good method to preserve food. Dried Fish and Seafood are popular foods in many Asian countries.

The only issue about this dish …
