This Thai Prawn Salad makes a beautifully refreshing starter for a dinner party, or a generous main on a hot Summer’s day. I love to serve it as a share platter where everyone can help themselves. I serve it with lettuce cups and crispy wonton wrappers for...
I had been thinking about making a Japanese Tonkatsu Pork Cutlet for a while. I’m so glad I thought long and hard because this Miso Infused Pork Cutlet was the total bomb. Crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, infused with organic white Miso paste...
This Beef Cheek & Porcini Pasta Bake was a sensational meal for a large family or a bunch of mates. I made it in my pressure cooker, so it was a set and forget kind of meal and can easily be made ahead of time so that when your guests arrive, you can just whack...
This Lamb & Lentil Curry was an absolute triumph. Using whole and ground spices, it was fragrant, tender and delicious. The best thing? A total one pot wonder. No rice needed with this one, just some warmed roti to scoop up the goodness, although to make the...

I have been thinking about cooking Steak with Miso for ages. I did a little attempt a while ago but found the miso to be a bit too over powering and way too salty. I did some research and found a recipe on Delicious that ticked most of the boxes but I really wanted...
One of the fast foods I love and crave the most is a good Asian style noodle soup. We have a local place at two locations within a 10km radius and if I am hungover, cold, hot, happy, sad or all these combined, I make a beeline and order either the Chinese BBQ Duck...
