This simple Carrot Salad is very versatile. It is quick and easy to make if you have a vegetable slicer, and it can be made with Carrot only, but I often add some extra ingredients such as Onion, Ham, Tuna, Parsley, Mustard, etc. Today I added Chikuwa, Japanese Tubular Fish Cakes, as you can see …
I was craving ‘Korokke’ today, but ‘Korokke’ is not easy to make. I have been cooking low carb dishes for my husband lately, and ‘Korokke’ is off the table. So, I cooked the ‘Korokke’ ingredients for just 1 serving in a totally different way. This stir-fry tasted the same as ‘Korokke’ when all were combined …
I often make a rice bowl for my lunch, and I most frequently use a small can of Fish to make it. Tuna, Sardines and Salmon are the regulars, but my favourite is Mackerel. Today I seasoned it with Miso and Mayonnaise. I ate it with freshly cooked Rice. Such a quick and easy dish, …
This is a quick and easy dish that I often cook with canned Sardines. Today I used cannedMackerel fillets in brine, and the Mackerel was quite salty. You might use Mackerel in oil OR water. You really need to alter the amount of Soy Sauce depending on the saltiness of the Mackerel. Makes 1 Serving …

Pizza is an Italian food, but it has been introduced into many countries, and unique localised Pizzas have developed. In Japan, you might come across ‘Teriyaki Chicken Pizza’. The other day, I head about Eel Pizza that is made with ‘Kabayaki’ Eel. I tried to make it using my ‘Teriyaki Chicken Pizza’ recipe, just replacing …
One of my favourite Spaghetti dishes is ‘Spaghetti alla Puttanesca’. What a genius who first combined Tomatoes, Olives, Capers, Anchovies, Garlic and Chilli!!! This is my easy version of Focaccia that is covered with those fabulous ingredients. Today I added Cheese as well, but Cheese is optional. Makes 4 to 6 Servings Ingredients 2 cups …
I believe this is the easiest and quickest dish of Lamb to cook, if you have already thinly sliced Lamb. Absolutely yummy to enjoy with chilled Beer, but of course you can enjoy with freshly cooked Rice. Serve with plenty of Coriander leaves and fresh Onion. Makes 3 to 4 Servings Ingredients 300g thinly sliced …
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 …

You need Gochujang (Korean Spicy …
