    Colourful Smoked Ham Takikomigohan

    Smoked Ham is often used for Fried Rice. Many people add Egg, Carrot and Peas, and the Fried Rice turns very colourful. I tried to make a similar rice dish using my rice cooker.

    Scallops & Spinach Doria

    The other day I bought a bag of Frozen Scallops that was on special. Fresh Scallops are quite expensive where I live and I rarely buy them, but I tend to jump at Frozen Scallops on special. Using those rather small Frozen Scallops, I made this delicious Doria today. White Sauce (Béchamel Sauce) is super …

    Easy ‘Omu-rice’ Bowl

    If you have been to Japan, you might have tried a popular dish called ‘Omu-rice’ (Omelette Rice). It is hugely popular, my children loved it when they were young and they still do, but it is actually not quick & easy to prepare for a whole family. I often made this easy version. It tastes …

    Spinach Risotto – Rice Cooker Method

    I hesitated to call this dish ‘Risotto’, but it is basically rice-cooker version of ‘Risotto’, and it tastes pretty good and texture is also good if you use ‘Quick Cook’ setting. Computerised Rice Cookers are so smart and they can do many things. However, they can get confused and stop cooking too soon when you …

    ‘Takikomigohan’ is a Japanese dish of Rice that is cooked with other ingredients and seasonings.

    ‘Takikomigohan’ is a Japanese dish of Rice that is cooked with other ingredients and seasonings. I have used a variety of Canned Fish to cook ‘Takikomigohan’, but never used Kippers. So, I tried.

    Mexican Chicken Baked Rice

    Today I tried to make my ‘Chicken & Chorizo Baked Rice’ into Mexican flavour. I basically added the same Spices that I use to cook ‘Chilli Con Carne’. I didn’t add Chorizo today, but you can add it. The brilliant addition to this dish is Cheese. I used ‘Cheese Mix for Baking’, that is a …

    ‘Takikomigohan’ is a Japanese dish of Rice that is cooked with other ingredients and seasonings. There are some very traditional ones and this is one of them.
