Wannabe Kale Frittata with Beef and Cherry Tomatoes

This is a wannabe frittata because I didn’t add cheese nor did I bake this dish and it could be called an omelette except that there’s more kale than egg. I found this dish incredibly tasty and stir frying the kale will eliminate any bitterness that is inherent in the veg. This recipe serves 1....

Mentaiko Salmon Ochazuke

This dish is immensely satisfying. Especially to the Chinese in me. It is a bowl that has the perfect combination of protein, carbs, savouriness (if there’s such a word as this), omega-3 and creaminess. Ochazuke refers to a simple Japanese dish of rice that’s poured with tea, hot water or hot soup. In this case,...

My Special Tofu with Mentaiko

You can find the recipe for my special tofu here. In light of the mentaiko that my bro bought, I added that to the top of my tofu to add in yet another dimension of flavours. The last time I made this, I added salmon roe. I love both versions and it does make a...
