This ‘Rice Cooker Frittata’ has been inspired by Greek ‘Lamb & Spinach Spanakopita’ which I LOVE. Basically I added the same ingredients to my Frittata mixture and cooked it in the rice cooker at ‘Cake’ setting. As always, the top side of the Frittata can’t be browned when cooked in the rice cooker, but it …
When I cook ‘Pumpkin Soup’, I usually cook Pumpkin with Onion and Potato. Today I cooked with Onion and Cauliflower, expecting less starchy & lighter texture. The texture of this soup was still thick and creamy, but I liked the flavour very much. I usually don’t add Garlic to Pumpkin Soup, but I added 1 …
‘Okowa’ is a Japanese dish of Glutinous Rice. ‘Okowa’ that is seasoned with Soy Sauce is probably my absolute favourite food. My mother cooks it by steaming, but I cook it using a rice cooker. It is the easiest way to cook ‘Okowa’, and the result is good enough if regular Rice is mixed with …
This humble soup is delicious, comforting, and of course very nutritious. It is a perfect soup to enjoy on a cold day like today. You can add your favourite Spices, but I added Cumin and Paprika. The soup is a little spicy as I added a pinch of Ground Chilli as well. I recommend to …
These cookies melt in your mouth. I love the delicate powdery texture of these cookies. The cookie dough needs to be dry and just moist enough so that you can form it into balls. DO NOT add more Sugar to the dough because I think it will ruin the flavour. The cookies will get coated …
My husband’s mother kept telling us Silverbeet (Swiss Chard) would fix not only Cold but everything. Thus, Silverbeet is an essential ingredient for my ‘Get-Well-Soon’ Chicken Soup, but my family members prefer Spinach. Another essential ingredient is fresh Ginger. The most important thing to remember when you cook this soup for a sick person is …
Pork and Eggplant is a great combination. This is the easiest Pork & Eggplant Rice Bowl recipe. I just covered the Rice with the popular Ginger Pork, but I cooked it with Eggplant. Using thinly sliced Pork and Eggplant, it won’t take long to cook. You need to prepare everything before you start cooking. Makes …
Occasionally I make Custard using Custard Powder. It is the quickest and easiest way to make Custard to serve with cake and pudding, and it is Egg-free. I followed the instruction on the package and I found the Custard too runny. This is how I make Custard using Foster Clark’s Custard Powder. You might be …
I hesitate to call this dessert a ‘Pie’ as it has no pastry, but it is called so. Absolutely easy and ‘Impossible’ to go wrong. There are many slightly different recipes and you might have your own. This is my recipe that is just right for my 22.5cm Pyrex pie dish. Some people use Coconut …
This rice dish is extremely easy to make if you have a rice cooker. Place all ingredients, except for Edamame Beans, in the rice cooker’s inner pot and press the button to start. I used only 1 can (120g) Sardines in Olive Oil. If you want to add more Sardines, you need to alter the …
This is my favourite way to enjoy Chia Seeds. To achieve the consistency of the pudding that I like, I mix 2 & 1/2 tablespoons Chia Seeds with 1/2 cup Milk and 1 teaspoon Maple Syrup. And I always add some Frozen Blueberries, because I always have them. You may wish to add fresh Blueberries …
You can use any Dried Mushrooms, but I strongly recommend to use some Dried Porcini. Today I added Dried Mixed Forest Mushrooms as well. These Dried Mushrooms are available from most supermarkets in Melbourne where I live. Chestnuts might be hard to find. I have very sore hands and can’t peel Chestnuts, so I used …
