Japanese Egg Sando
Growing up, I never liked egg sandwiches. Today though, I’m a massive fan of the dish. But I require two conditions: 1. The bread has to be freshly toasted – and the thicker the better. 2. The mayo has to be Kewpie, or I’d give it a hard pass!

Here’s a dip to serve at midday, to use as a spread for your sandwich, or to have as a snack to accompany an aperitif! You’re definitely going to want to make some homemade tortilla chips to go with it (recipe below!)
Spiced Seafood & Fennel Stew
My loose interpretation of a Tunisian fish soup, Chreime. It's usually made with the day's catch, and whatever vegetables one has on hand.
Roasted Red Pepper Dip (Muhammara)
Muhammara is a dip/spread that is creamy, smokey, savoury, and slightly sweet at the same time!
Takikomi Gohan
Takikomi Gohan loosely translates to 5-ingredient seasoned rice, as it is usually made with roughly 5 ‘toppings’. I made this using a salmon fillet I had in my freezer, but feel free to use whatever you have around!
Provençal Roasted Lamb
I don’t usually cook or eat large portions of meat like this and I was nervous to even try, but this turned out great (if I may say so myself!) and I’m definitely keeping this in my arsenal. This is super easy, I promise. I wouldn’t be doing it otherwise!

Vegetarian Ramen
Dishes like ramen usually take a lot of time and effort to make, especially if you want to achieve a rich and creamy broth. Here’s a quick trick that requires no meat bones, and only 30 mins of your time. I know, I too thought it was too good to be true, especially with the amazing flavours it yielded! For the effort it takes, I’d even say it trumps traditional ramen broths.
Soba Noodle Salad with Prawns
This was a recipe created for Fairprice Finest’s ‘Finest Festival’ where they highlighted the art of Lagom, a Swedish philosophy for living a balanced life. Lagom means: Not too little. Not too much. Just right.
