    Soy Meat Sukiyaki Don

    One day I tried to cook ‘Sukiyaki Don’ replacing Beef with Soy Meat (Soy Protein) and the result was too bland. You can’t just replace Beef with Soy Meat. Extra flavours are needed in the sauce. So I added Ginger, Sesame Oil and Chilli this time. The dish tastes much better and it still tastes …

    Tuna & Egg Rice Bowl

    This is another dish that you can cook with the humble Canned Tuna. I always use ‘Tuna in Springwater’. If you use ‘Tuna in Brine’, you need to alter the amount of Soy Sauce because the Tuna is salty. This can be an inexpensive and nutritious meal for anyone who likes Canned Tuna. Makes 1 …

    If you like Kimchi and ‘Takuan’ (Japanese Pickled Daikon), the combination of Kimchi and ‘Takuan’ must be irresistible. ‘Kimu-Taku Rice’ is very popular in Japan and I love it.
