  • Fish Gyoza

    Canned Mackerel Gyoza

    Mackerel is my favourite fish. Anything made with Mackerel is delicious to me. Today I made these Gyoza to use up some leftover Gyoza Wrappers. I used 1 small can of Mackerel for the filling. As the canned Mackerel was already cooked, I only needed to cook Wrappers. If you have uncooked fresh Mackerel, that …

  • Donburi (Rice Bowl) Tofu & Soy Protein

    Tofu Soboro & Mushroom Rice Bowl

    ‘Soboro’ means crumbled meat in Japanese. I often use minced Pork OR Chicken, sometimes canned Fish, and Tofu is also very suitable for ‘Soboro’ dishes. Please use a good quality Firm Tofu that contains less water. If you live in Australia, I don’t recommend Coles’ Firm Tofu that has sour taste and poor texture. This …

  • Chicken Donburi (Rice Bowl) Egg

    Scrumptious Chicken & Egg Rice Bowl

    There is a Japanese dish called ‘Oyako Don’. It is Chicken & Egg Rice Bowl and one of the most popular dishes. Today I cooked this rice bowl in a totally different way using the exactly same ingredients. It’s easier and quicker than ‘Oyako Don’, and absolutely scrumptious! Makes 1 Serving Ingredients 1 small Chicken …

    Gochujang Chikuwa Rice Bowl

    I use Soy Sauce, Sugar and Mirin to season many dishes. They are the Japanese staples. I added Gochujang (Korean Spicy Miso), Garlic and a little bit of Vinegar to this dish, and the flavour instantly changed from Japanese to Korean. The spicy and sweet sauce is very suitable for Chikuwa (Japanese tube-shape fish cakes) …

  • Curry Fish Potato

    Curry Flavoured Mackerel & Potato Salad

    ‘Curry Flavoured Smoked Sausage & Potato Salad’ is one of my family’s favourite potato salads and I sometimes crave it. Today I wanted to cook it, but I didn’t have Sausages. As I had some Canned Fish, I decided to use Canned Mackerel instead of Sausages, and the result was great. It was delicious! The …

  • Pork Ramen

    Instant Ramen with Pork & Wonton Wrappers

    Currently I have a lot of Wonton Wrappers that my daughter gave me. I don’t want to waste them, so I have been trying to use them. The easiest way is adding them to soup, so I decided to add some Wrappers to Instant Ramen soup that was my lunch. I was very impressed with …

  • Mazegohan Pork

    Ginger Pork Mazegohan

    I had a pack of 350g thinly sliced Pork. I wanted to cook a dish for 4 servings. I could have stir-fried the Pork with vegetables, but I didn’t have suitable vegetables. I only had salad vegetables. Then, I decided to cook this ‘Mazegohan’. ‘Mazegohan’ is a Japanese dish of Rice. Rice and other ingredients …

    Chikuwa & Spring Onion Pancake

    Using ‘Tempura’ Batter, that can be made with Plain Flour, Potato Starch, Egg and Water, you can make a variety of savoury pancakes. Today I used Chikuwa (Japanese Tube-shape Fish Cakes) and Spring Onions. You can use Garlic Chives instead of Spring Onions. Add as much as you want if you can combine with the …

  • Shirataki & Itokonnyaku

    Stir-fried Shirataki (Konjac Noodles) & Egg

    ‘Shirataki’ (Konjac Noodles) are translucent and gelatinous noodles made from ‘Konnyaku’ Potatoes (aka Konjac Yam or Devil’s Tongue Yam). ‘Shirataki’ is very low in calories and a popular food to eat when you try to lose weight. I used Spring Onion today, but Garlic Chives are also good. This dish is lower in calories, yet …

  • Soba

    Soba Noodles with Garlic Chilli Oil

    I often use Italian Spaghetti for Japanese dishes. The other day, I decided to cook ‘Spaghetti Aglio Olio e Peperoncino’, a famous Italian dish, replacing Spaghetti with Japanese Soba Noodles. It was surprisingly delicious and you can see the photo of the dish below. Today I used Sesame Oil instead of Olive Oil, and seasoned …

  • Potato Vegetables

    Potato & Carrot Pancake

    To make batter for this type of savoury pancake, I use Plain Flour, Potato Starch and Egg, just like ‘Tempura’ batter. You can use Plain Flour only, OR you may prefer Self-Raising Flour for softer texture. Today I made a large pancake and cut into bite-size pieces. Of course you can make smaller pancakes. Enjoy …

  • Chicken Curry Pork Vegetables

    Quick & Easy Pumpkin Curry

    There are many Pumpkin Curry recipes out there, but I just don’t have the ingredients that are required for those recipes. I always have a tin of S&B Curry Powder which I love, and I make a variety of curries using it. Today I seasoned this Pumpkin Curry with the S&B Curry Powder, Soy Sauce …
