Stir-fried Tomato, Pork & Egg is a dish I repeatedly cook. We always eat it with freshly cooked Rice, so I made it into a rice bowl. Sweet ripe Tomatoes in season are the best, but I often use not-so-great Tomatoes for stir-fries. When Tomatoes are sour, a little bit of Sugar improves the flavour. …
The other day, I cooked thinly sliced Pork Belly for dinner. I was tired and couldn’t think of any particular dishes, so I just stir-fried it and seasoned with Salt & Pepper. I was afraid the amount was not enough for us, then I added Eggs. I just poured whisked Eggs over the cooked Pork. …
It was my daughter who introduced this Korean dish to our family. It was a very sweet and spicy dish, I actually found it too sweet for me, but I enjoyed it, especially the rubbery Rice Cakes. This is my version of Topokki. My method might be different from the authentic method, but it is …

Thai cuisine is very popular in Australia and I am a big fan of ‘Pad Thai’. When my daughter was living with us, she often cooked it for family’s dinner. Since she moved out last year, I haven’t had it even once, and I craved it today. I had almost all ingredients, but I don’t …
