I am a big fan of Flammkuchen (OR Flammekueche), that is sometimes called ‘German Pizza’. Just like ‘Italian Pizza’, toppings can be anything. Today I used Edamame Beans (Young Soy Beans). In Melbourne where I live, Frozen Edamame Beans are widely available even from ordinary supermarket stores. This is a Vegetarian version of Flammkuchen and …
Macaroni Salad is the most popular salad in Japan and I have my own recipe. It’s a lovely salad and I have been making it repeatedly for decades. The same Macaroni Salad again and again, and I wanted to make something different today. This is my American inspired Pasta Salad, but still tastes Japanese as …
I was planning to cook Chicken Stroganoff on the other day, but I became too tired to slice the Chicken Fillets. Slicing Chicken is not a big deal, but I get too tired sometimes. Then I cooked the same ingredients in a different way and the result was great. This is how I cooked it. …
Broccoli is in season. It is delicious and also very cheap. I have been cooking Broccoli almost everyday. Today I added it to everyone’s favourite ‘Egg & Potato Salad’. Broccoli is so good with creamy sauces. With Sour Cream, Egg and Potato, it couldn’t possibly taste bad. Makes 4 Servings Ingredients 2 to 3 Potatoes …
I used to be a Beetroot hater. I hated it so bad and didn’t want to put it into my mouth. But I love it now, and Canned Beetroot is my pantry essential. ‘Spinach, Beetroot & Fetta Salad’ is my No.1 Beetroot Salad. No. 2 is this ‘Beetroot & Potato Salad’. You can add Boiled …
‘German people would never make this,’ my daughter said to me when I was making this. The fishy and salty Anchovy on Flammkuchen? Why not?

Store bought Frozen Meatballs was a lifesaver for me when I was a struggling mother of two young children. I was alone as my husband was alway away from home, I was terribly busy, and started to suffer from depression. Preparing meals for my children was a challenge and ‘Quick & Easy’ was the key …
My ‘Blueberry & Sour Cream Pie’ has been popular and I am loving its sour cream filling that is so easy to make. This filling works well with many other fruit, with or without pie crust. Today I simply packed a pie dish with Apple, poured the sour cream filling over and baked it. Easy …
Flammkuchen (OR Flammekueche) is not well known. You even don’t know how to pronounce it, do you? Some people call it ‘German Pizza’. I heard that there are some regional variations, but most commonly Sour Cream is used. It’s surprisingly easy to make and I am loving it! Makes 2 to 4 Servings Ingredients Base1 …
Blueberries are expensive in Melbourne, but I sometimes want to bake Blueberry Pie. This Finnish style Blueberry Pie is easy to make and you can use Frozen Blueberries. I used to buy a frozen flan case for this pie, but not anymore. My ‘Easiest Sweet Shortcrust Pastry’ tastes much better. Pie Dish I used 22.5cm …
On the other day, I cooked Chicken version of my ‘Super Easy Beef Stroganoff’. I added Wholegrain Mustard instead of Pickled Cucumber because I was in doubt if Pickled Cucumber was the right sourness for Chicken. The result was fantastic! I thought slight spiciness would make the flavour even better, so I sprinkled with extra …
