You can enjoy the Leftover Roast Chicken and Salad Vegetables with your favourite dressing OR sauce. Today I enjoyed it with Creamy Sesame Dressing, that was a little spicy as I added Chilli Sauce because the Roast Chicken tasted bland. I sprinkled with my home-made Shichimi (Japanese Chilli Spice Mix), that was so good. Makes …
I love Ramen in thick and rich soup, but today I enjoyed this light and simple soup seasoned with Salt and White Pepper. For this Ramen soup, leftover Roast Chicken is a perfect topping. Of course, it doesn’t have to be leftover Roast Chicken. You can boil Chicken in the soup, OR add pan-fried Chicken. …
These juicy Chicken Patties are made with Chicken Breast Fillets cut into thin strips OR small dice. Texture if much better than the Patties made with Chicken Mince. Today I used 600g Chicken Breast Fillets that were already sliced for stir-fry. My hungry husband and son came to kitchen, and couldn’t resist tasting some. A …
As I had a small amount of leftover Roast Chicken, I made this Vietnamese inspired noodle salad for lunch today. I used Capellini (Angel Hair Pasta), an Italian Pasta. You can use Rice Vermicelli OR Japanese ‘Somen’ Noodles instead, but I love Capellini the best. Because I love its texture, it is inexpensive, and easy …
I often make these Chicken Bites using Shiso. However, Shiso is not easy to find for many people. It is impossible for me to buy it from stores, so I grow Shiso at home. Anyway, this recipe is easy for everyone because it uses Basil, dry OR fresh. Today I used Dry Basil, but you …
This salad of Wombok and Chicken can be dressed with any salad dressing of your choice, but this ‘Ponzu’ based simple Sesame Dressing is my favourite. You can’t find Ponzu?

Since I saw a video of someone cooking Chicken Mince wrapped with Rice Paper, I have thought about trying it many times, but I haven’t. Because the process of wetting and softening the Rice Paper was bothering me as I am quite lazy. Today I sandwiched the Chicken Mince with DRY Rice Paper, and pan-fried …
It’s been cold in Melbourne. Today I wanted to eat something warm and comforting. A noodle soup is a good option. I decided to cook a Soba Noodle Soup. I like to use Katsuo (Bonito) Dashi for the soup to eat with Soba Noodles. I added Chicken Mince and Spring Onion. It was a very …
‘Kōya Dōfu’ is freeze-dried Tofu, originated in the mid 16th century Japan. It looks like a hard dried sponge. Today I simmered it with Chicken and Vegetables in the soy sauce flavoured soup. If you are Vegan, omit Chicken and use plant-based soup stock. This is a very comforting dish to enjoy on a cold …
This creamy looking Rice Soup is cooked with no Milk, no Cream OR no Cheese. The soup is creamy because of Rice and Egg. It is based on my ‘Lemon Chicken & Egg Soup’. It is quick and easy to cook, and the soup is nutritious and very comforting. When I am not well OR …

You can use this mixture for a variety of dishes. Makes 4 Servings Ingredients 500g …
