Chicken Miso Ramen
•
Rudy loved Japanese food. He missed sushi the most, as consuming raw/ undercooked foods was not advised when undergoing his treatments. As much as we could we still tried to have our Japanese food fix, and ramen was one of the things we wanted to have more of.

Benggali Bread
•
When I was a kid, on weekends when we went to visit my brother in boarding school, we’d stop by a market in Batu Enam to buy Benggali bread rolls filled with kaya. The bread was simple, soft but not milky, and the kaya was the cheapo diluted type unlike the fancy gourmet ones…

Chicken Chashu Fried Rice (Chashu Chahan)
•
I still had some chicken chashu leftover, but not much ramen left to use it as a topping. So I resorted to making the most common thing Asians would with leftovers: make chashu fried rice!

Ramen Eggs (Ajitsuke Tamago)
•
Having made the chashu as part of the toppings for my ramen, next thing to make are the eggs. I used the leftover chashu braising liquid as a marinade, but if this is not available and you simply want to make the eggs on their own, you only need just a few ingredients. Got…

Chicken Chashu for Ramen
•
One day we were gifted a set of DIY ramen, which came with 5 portions worth of noodles, broth paste and chili seasoning. I’d like to prepare this for the family, but obviously I shouldn’t waste the opportunity by serving a bowl of noodles in soup and nothing else. We definitely required toppings.

Swedish Meatballs: IKEA Copycat Recipe
•
It’s been ages since we’ve been to IKEA. Surely, window shopping or filling our carts with cool stuff we don’t need is fun, but the highlight of our IKEA trips is usually lunch at their cafeteria. Typically, we’d order the usual staples like the fried chicken wings, grilled salmon, and of course the meatballs.

Chicken Yakisoba
•
I really like yakisoba. Back when I was a student living in Nagoya for over a year, every few days we’d walk down the road to the neighborhood supermarket to get groceries, and prepare our own meals in the dorm kitchen. One of the things I’d pick up from time to time was a…

Curry Noodles
•
I love mi kari. I love them a specific way, where the broth is creamy but not too rich or thick, with a good mix of toppings but not overboard or trying too hard. I also like the broth to be flavorful and bursting with umami, which I imagined should come from some form…

Mediterranean Baked Fish
•
Bought a kilo of really nice cod fillets from Seafood Maestro, some I used for the Fish Pie. I still had a few pieces left over, so I trawled the Internet for a recipe which is relatively simple to make, and with ingredients which will allow the flavor of the cod to really shine…

Chicken Asado Pandesal
•
When I posted the Chicken Adobo I made the other day, I used the hashtag #filipinofood. Subsequently, I was followed by @sarapnow, an Instagram account featuring various Filipino dishes. I figured this is the best way to build my exposure to Filipino cuisine, so I started following the account as well. One day, I…
