This is one of my favourite soups. I always use Smoked Ham Hock for this soup, but you may wish to use a different type of block of Ham. To reduce the cooking time, I cut the Ham Hock into some chunks. If it is too difficult for you, make some deep cuts into the …
This is a Korean ‘Namul’ inspired salad. It is absolutely easy to make, yet really yummy. As I always use a can of Tuna in Springwater, I add a reasonable amount of Salt, but you need to alter the amount of Salt. If you use Tuna in Oil, you may wish to use the Oil …
Today I wanted to cook Asian flavoured Roasted Carrots. I was going to use my ‘Char Siu’ sauce, but the sauce is very sweet and I was afraid it would be too sweet for Carrots. Then I decided to use Gochujang Sauce that I often use for Chicken and Tofu dishes, e.g. ‘Gochujang Tofu Rice …
The other day, I cooked ‘Stir-fried Harusame with Prawns & Lettuce’ without rehydrating Dry Harusame Noodles, and it worked very well. So, I cooked this dish in the same method. It is basically stir-fried Pork Mince and Vegetables. After I seasoned the stir-fry, I added Sauce and Dry Harusame Noodles to the pan. It didn’t …
This recipe can be a life-saver for busy parents. When my children were young and I was a very busy mum, I sometimes could not bother thinking about what to cook for dinner. One of my choices was Curry that I could cook with S&B Curry Roux Blocks as it was easy to prepare and …
‘Instant Ramen Noodles’ is a complete package that comes with Dry Noodles and Seasoning Powder, often with Spices and Flavoured Oil as well. Using the Noodles and Seasoning Powder, I cooked this stir-fry today. As the dish smelled so good, I took this photo in case I would want to share how I cooked it. …
A variety of Fried Fish Cakes are easily available from many stores in Japan and I never wanted to make them from scratch. But, in Melbourne where I live, I need to make them when I want to eat them. It’s much easier than you think if you have a food processor. Deep frying is …
It’s January now. In Melbourne where I live, it is summer and supposed to be hot, but it’s been cold last few days. I wanted to cook something warm and comforting today. So, I decided to bake this Chicken Pot Pie. Shortcrust Pastry is not hard to make, but you may prefer using store-bought Pastry. …
This is a very simple soup that is actually super easy to cook. No special technic is required. You cut the ingredients and cook them in a pot until soft, then season with Salt and Pepper. Today I used Beef that was already cut for stir-fry, so I didn’t need to cut it. This recipe …
My children loved Instant Creamy Corn Cup Soup when they were young. I used to stock it in the pantry, but these day I stock Canned Creamed Corn instead. Most soups are easy to make, so is the Creamy Corn Soup, and home-made soup tastes the best and healthy. You can add Angel Hair Pasta …
This might be a new way to eat Lamb for you. It is a very simple stir-fry dish. As I always eat it with Rice, I made it into a rice bowl. This stir-fry is absolutely easy. Make the marinade in a mixing bowl, add all ingredients and mix to combine, then stir-fry. Of course, …
To make batter for this type of savoury pancake, I use Plain Flour, Potato Starch and Egg, just like ‘Tempura’ batter. You can use Plain Flour only, OR you may prefer Self-Raising Flour for softer texture. Today I made a large pancake and cut into bite-size pieces. Of course you can make smaller pancakes. Enjoy …
