The other day I cooked a large batch of ‘Nametake’ Enoki. I have been enjoying it, but it was time for me to finish the leftover. I used it to make these Chicken Patties. ‘Nametake’ Enoki is seasoned fairly strongly, so you need to be careful with the amount of Salt to add. I added …
This is a Spaghetti version of my ‘Tuna Udon’. You need 1 small can of Tuna, Onion and Spaghetti to cook this. If you add some other vegetables, you can make it more nutritious. If you are living on a tight budget, I strongly recommend you to stock some Canned Fish, Rice and Pasta. You …
Chicken Pattie mixture is often very sticky and it can be difficult to roll into patties. You need to wet your hands with Oil OR Water to do it. The other day I discovered that I could form the mixture into patties just like making pancakes. Today I cooked this rice bowl just for myself. …
This is a Korean inspired salad. I decided not to call it a ‘Namul’, but its flavour is similar to my ‘Namul’ dishes. Absolutely easy to make and delicious. For 4 servings, I used 200g Iceberg Lettuce. When it is torn into bite-size pieces, it might look too much, but it isn’t. DO NOT reduce …
Fried Tofu is available from many Asian grocery stores. In Melbourne where I live, many supermarkets sell it. Fried Tofu has firm and crunchy outside, and it is suitable for many dishes. Today I cooked this rice bowl, similar to my ‘Scrumptious Chicken & Egg Rice Bowl’. It’s a vegetarian dish that is high in …
This is a very filling soup because there is a lot of Cabbage in it. I added thinly sliced Pork and Corn Kernels today. You may wish to add more Vegetables OR Mushrooms. For me, this can be a meal as it is, but you can add some Rice OR Noodles. The soup doesn’t look …

I used to cook this dish using Canned Soy Beans, that is commonly available in Japan, but it is impossible to find in Melbourne where I live. I started using Edamame as Edamame are young Soy Beans and they are almost the same thing, although Edamame are crunchy. In Melbourne, frozen Edamame beans that are …

For a long time I wondered why this dish is called ‘Mongolian Beef’. I recently discovered it has nothing to do with Mongolian cuisine. Anyway, it is popular in Melbourne where I live. When I tried to cook it at home, I looked for recipes and I didn’t like all of them, because they were …
This is what I am most likely cooking when I don’t feel well with a cold or something. If I am very sick and weak, I would wish to eat ‘Okayu’, Japanese Rice Porridge, that is seasoned with only a small amount of Salt, but it is not nutritious. For this Rice Soup, Egg and …
This is the third time I cooked this quick and easy soup of Iceberg Lettuce. Every time I cooked it, I used more Lettuce than last time. Today I added 150g and it looked too much, but it was not. I could have added more. That’s because the volume of Iceberg Lettuce is reduced significantly …
